In 2019, they reached number 9 in the annual Top 2000 hit list with "De boer dat is de keerl" (translates to "The Farmer, that is the man") due to a viral social media campaign to vote for it as a means of protest against increased hardship for farmers in the country caused by the tightening of nitrogen-emission laws. Aired during the last week of the year and often called the "Chart of charts", the Top 2000 countdown of the most popular songs of all time draws millions of listeners in the Netherlands alone. Usually, however, the highest-ranked Normaal song is, "Oerend hard", ranging from a chart position of 82 in 2005 to 371 in 2023; it has appeared on the Top 2000 list every year since this was inaugurated in 1999.
