| abstract | - On Top of the World was the Dutch entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 in Helsinki performed by Edsilia Rombley, who had previously represented the country in the 1998 contest. The song is an up-tempo, RnB-inspired number. Rombley begins by telling her lover that she has been "trying to let you go", but finds this impossible. She wonders whether they are "making the same mistake", but decides to give him another chance on the condition that he promises never to break her heart again. As the Netherlands had not qualified for the final at the previous Contest, the song was performed in the semi-final. Here, it was performed tenth, following Moldova and preceding Albania. At the close of voting, it finished in 21st place, thus failing to qualify for the final.
