Tags: Eurovision Song Contest Entry.

De vogels van Holland (The birds of Holland) was the first Dutch entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1956 (the only edition of the contest at which two entries per country were allowed). It was written by Annie M. G. Schmidt and performed in Dutch by Jetty Paerl. The song is particularly significant for being the first song performed in Eurovision Song Contest history and the first of many to sing the praises of the singer’s homeland.
