Watch Anouk's amazing video clip 'Birds'

Tomorrow Anouk will perform at the final of the Eurovision Song Contest with her song Birds.
The entry is for her homecountry The Netherlands.

Yesterday she released her new clip for this song, clearly inspired by the film Black Swan.

The lyrics:

isolated from the outside
clouds have taken all the light
I have no control
it seems my thoughts wonder all of the time
when I try to live life without you

birds falling down the rooftops
out of the sky like raindrops
no air, no pride
birds

if being myself is what I do wrong
than I would rather not be right
hopes turned into fear
and with my one wing I can't fly with sunrise
embrace my dreams tight
and that's why

birds falling down the rooftops
out of the sky like raindrops
no air, no pride
birds

to a place without fear with no moonlight
all I need are trees and flowers and some sunlight
where memories are being made
and where the old one dies
where love ain't lost

birds falling down the rooftops
out of the sky like raindrops
no air, no pride
birds

Her voice comes up from her toes like a force of nature, and immediately grabs you like a musical lump in the throat. This tough lady, who always pursues her own course, following her musical intuition, has had a hold on the Netherlands for over fifteen years now.
