These were the new entries in the Dutch Top 40 that never made the UK Top 40:
This is a record I would of heard in 1995 though I have no recollection of it. The reason is because 1995 was one of the rare occasions when I watched the Eurovision Song Contest and this was the winner. It represented Norway, though of half of the duo is Irish. We had Love City Groove representing the UK that year and I remember it sounding much more modern than anything else in the contest. It still does sound much more modern than this.
Van Dik Hout - S Nachts In Mijn Dromen
Another Dutch act singing in Dutch. Van Dik Hout were a guitar band whose Dutch Top 40 career spanned 15 years from 1994 to 2009. It however only produced 8 hits and they never got higher than 21. This was hit number 3 and their sole Dutch Top 40 hit of 1995. I quite like it.
It wasn't just Dutch acts with Dutch Top 40 hits that were sung in Dutch, there were Belgians too. Dana Winner was one of these Belgian and this was her only Dutch Top 40 hit. It's a slow number though not quite a ballad.
