Fun fact - assuming the lowest ranked song gets one vote, the next lowest gets two, etc you need over 20m votes to rank two thousand songs (sum of natural numbers).

Each person that votes, can vote for a top 35 (used to be 10 I think). It's always a mixture of international and dutch songs and Queen with Bohemian Rapsody is almost every year on first place (it transcends generations now, and because young people heard it on new years eve just before 12 o'clock they vote for it nowadays again as well, as a sort of tradition/nostalgia).

Love the idea of it tbh.
