“What’s the song ARCADE about Duncan”?, asked by the host of the Dutch Show DWDD, Duncan answered: ”I wrote this song during my study at the Rock Academy. It’s a story about a dear person who I lost at a young age. I've always had a hard time dealing with this lost. She had the love of her life but suddenly wasn’t there anymore. And until the end she had the hope that her loved one would come back before she died. But he didn't. And that HOPE I put in this song and video. I shot the naked under water scenes with director Paul Bellaard. What we mainly wanted to represent in the video is HOPE. The water suface is, as it were, the HOPE of: the light, the dream or the love that’s up there.The nude reflects the vulnerability and perhaps the rebirth from HOPE…” Ducan Laurence
beautiful song! Can see it qualifying & hopefully he can bring some of the video to life on stage ie: floating jelly fish , water etc. Good luck Netherlands!
Duncan has written and sung a beautiful song. He immediately entered my heart. Tears in my eyes and goose bumps. I have heard his song 300 times and I want to listen to it again and again. For me the big winner of 2019. Best song of the Netherlands ever. Please let Duncan win because it is a super song. Within an hour also at 1 at itunes.
He did a live acoustic version of the song on tv program. He sounded very good and it was emotional as well. You should check it out: duncan laurence arcade live acoustic 😉
