Mia Nicolai and Dion Cooper are heading to the Eurovision Song Contest with the song Burning Daylight. On Tuesday, a short teaser appeared on social media in which little can be heard yet, but the title of the song becomes clear.
In the short video, we see Cooper and Nicolai, but no music can be heard yet. The song, which they co-wrote with Duncan Laurence, will not be announced until Wednesday.
“The song is an ode to trial and error,” Cooper previously told me. “It’s about recognising that we are just people trying to do our best too and that it’s not bad to make mistakes. It’s about getting back up afterwards, choosing something better and moving on.” The singer speaks of “a very hopeful song”. “Mia and I were both able to put some of our personal story into it,” he says.
Mia and Dion are competing on behalf of the Netherlands in the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest. If they manage to place in the top ten, they will advance to the final. That will take place on 13 May in Liverpool.
