| - Calm After the Storm was the Dutch entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2014 in Copenhagen performed by The Common Linnets. A country ballad, it gives some fans the feeling of songs by American group Lady Antebellum. Despite the bookies' pre-contest odds that the Netherlands would fare badly, it surprised many when the song qualified, winning the first semifinal overall. In the final, it performed 24th, following Denmark and preceding San Marino. At the close of voting, it finished in second place, making it the country's best result since it last won in 1975, and the highest score for the Netherlands in all the Eurovision contests. It went on to become the Contest's best charting song throughout Europe that year. It also won two Marcel Bezençon awards - the Artistic Award voted on by the commentators, and the Composer Award voted on by a jury of the participating composers in the 2014 contest.
