The Toppers Eurovision 2009 Video | Middle-Aged Boy Band Fail to Make Finals with “Shine”

35 sec read

I have a confession to make: I am a Eurovision tragic. I live in Australia, a country that doesn’t even compete, yet every year I’m glued to my screen for three big nights of terrible music, flamboyant costumes, and fun.

This act has all that, but in one of the great injustices of the comp they didn’t make it to the finals. In case you missed it, I bring you The Toppers from The Netherlands.

The Toppers are what we might expect if New Kids on the Block are still on the road in twenty years time. They’re far too old to be called a boy band, yet they’re still busting out the old-school moves and positive pop tunes.

Boy bands get hot young back-up dancers. Man bands get tubby middle-aged women. It might seem like a step down, but these mamas can move!

Add some bedazzled suits, some stylish half gloves, and the sort of lights show we only see at Eurovision and you’ve got entertainment!
