    Poland POLAND 2020 - Alicja Szemplińska - Empires

    @tuorem You surely know I like you, so please try not to be offended. But let me say it makes me sad to see your gradual transformation into one of those bigot Eurofans who basically want the same "gorgeous woman shouting high notes" song all over again, year after year, and who are only...

    BTW, the original Lucy is a good sport.

    Yes, it was bad formulation. What I meant was that she was chosen to sing that particular song, "Ne partez pas sans moi" (by its authors, I guess), not just invited like "Let's have Lenka Filipová in our NF and see what she brings in.". The iniciative was on Swiss part, basically.

    In 1988. The song, eventually sung by Céline Dion, had originally a different - probably more folk-ish - arrangement, so they were seeking a francophone female singer playing guitar. Lenka Filipová was a regular guest of many francophone folk festivals in the 1980s and she also happens to be a...

    Poland POLAND 2020 - Alicja Szemplińska - Empires

    After reading every possible info and opinion about Albert's participation and tying up loose ends, my theory is that while agreeing to show up in Szansa na Sukces, Albert didn't know that he's entering a Eurovision NF. He repeatedly said that when TVP invited him, he said yes because he...

    Well, in that case, the problem with Albert not wanting to win is solved. ;)

    Yeah, in this Polish interview, Albert confirmed that he won't be competing alone but with Lake Malawi and also that their potential Eurovision song is going to be Lucy: Judging from his suspiciously effortless performance in SnS semi I am pretty sure he doesn't want to win. But if that...

    Czech Republic CZECH REPUBLIC 2020 - Benny Cristo - Kemama

    @HayashiM In real life, Barbora Mochowa is a music teacher. So I can imagine she could have some useful contacts allowing her to do some promo in schools as well. But you are probably right, kids wouldn't appreciate her song as it is. Maybe if she would sing it in planetarium? Idk, just a brief...

    Czech Republic CZECH REPUBLIC 2020 - Benny Cristo - Kemama

    @tuorem Well, Pam, Elis or We All Poop are no millionaires either, but they are much more active on social sites, which - whether we like it or not - is crucial for any public figure nowadays. Also, not sure about WAP, but Pam and Elis are constantly performing somewehere - no matter how small...

    Yes, Kryštof Šámal literally said "We've sent them Youtube links" and since the live performances are not on Youtube (unless the artists upload them themselves on their channels like Barbora and Ben did)... And for the advertisement - I think that artists actively promoting their songs are...

    Czech Republic CZECH REPUBLIC 2020 - Benny Cristo - Kemama

    After 10 days of re-listening and re-considering everything from each possible aspect, I have finally voted. It was a strategical compromise between what I not only like but also believe has realistic chance to end in the TOP3 of both public and jury ranking, so... I've sent 3 votes for WAP and...
