Nightwish vocalist Floor Jansen has checked in with the following message:
“To live in a free country is not a given. Many people in 2025 still do not know what freedom is. In the Netherlands, we celebrate our freedom every year. We remember the war that tore apart our country, we remember those who fought for the freedom we still cherish today, we mourn the dead, and we remind newer generations never to take freedom for granted. This year marks 80 years since the end of the Second World War. I am honored to make a musical contribution to this special event.”
Jansen performed Loreen’s “Euphoria” for the celebration. Check out video footage below.
