"Out on my own" - Michelle

The Dutch Final was held on March 3rd at the Ahoy in Rotterdam, hosted by Paul de Leeuw. The winning song was chosen by a mixture of an artists jury (chaired by Ruth Jacott), a composers jury, a music-industry jury (50%) plus televoting (50%) - Michelle was the favourite with both.
