Just found out that the Iranian-Swedish Goddess Mahan Moin (aka the winner of Eurovision with "Azizami" in an alternate reality) is among the authors of the song xheat

No way, I just finished listening to that song before I read this comment. :eek:

Definitely one of the best songs this year. In similar category as :no: 2017 and should do even better. :10:

I like the song but they should change the awful staging. 8 points from me.

God, I can only repeat myself, I'm so glad that they won the Polish preselection. Ever since I first listened to this song (a week ago, I think), it has been on repeat nonstop and I won't get tired of it, it's almost like an addiction, ahaha. Puts you in such a good mood and is actually a great track while working out, too! If nothing like Il Volo comes around that completely blasts you out of your seat (or if they don't manage to ruin the live performance themselves), this will easily stay my number 1 this year. Great job, Gromee, great job, Poland!

Of course, they will change it. TVP's lack of producing skills is horrible.
Visually it was baaaad and I was afraid that once again uptempo song will fail because of TVP's experts.

Anyway, In my opinion the final performance (this one uploaded on official Eurovision YT channel) is super nice because of another reason - this is just pleasant to watch, everyone is happy, people are dancing, smiling, jumping. Great. For the first time since "My Słowianie" I can vote "12" on this poll! :)

It might be a goodfeel song, but ... it's quite a blank song too. The chorus is weak and ... just nothing. To me one of the zero point songs. Tried to listen to it more often, but it proved me right.

Norway's entry last year had good vocals. This entry's are total shite. Sad because I would otherwise have liked the song.

What an entry xheat xbow

I really like the studio version of this song. The video from ESC official is also nice! watching the audience singing along is an indicator that this song could give a good ambience to the audience and they enjoy the song too! xlove

Good luck in May! xcheer

and yes, please get rid off the guitar :'>

Haha interesting... I gave this 0 points because the performance in the NF has been a huge mess... But today I coincidentally listened to the studio version on youtube without knowing that it was the :pl: entry... It felt a 100 times more modern than the live performance! :lol: Almost like a decent pop song (well cheap and still to much a wannabe feel good song but somehow not that bad)! Interesting haha... I'm curious about the staging for Eurovision, I hope it'll be better than the NF mess!

I don't know if it's because I've yet to have find a clear favourite this year, but after a couple of re-listens I am starting to believe this might be my #1 this year.
One the one hand it feels like a very generic indie/dance/pop summer song, yet It really puts me in a good mood and lifts my spirit.
It has the guitar I have a soft spot for, the slow and melodic build-up I'm a sucker for and a very catchy drop.

This song might not be one of the all time greats, but it has found all my weaknesses and soft spots in music to win me over so far, 12 points to :pl:!
Still need to work a bit on the live performance though, both in presentation and staging.

That studio in Polish NF is always like that, all entries sound a bit weaker, it sounds much better in ESC later.. ;) :)

It was definitely partly attributed to poor acoustics and some mic issues, yet the singing also wasn't flawless.
I'm more worried about the staging tbh, it makes the song come across so much more 'cheesy' than it really is.

They will stage it similar to Norway 2017, me thinks..

Why is the final reprise called "Offical video" by the Eurovision channel...surely it must be a mistake cause it can't be anything wrong with the other video I suppose?

Countries are supposed so send the official videos until next week. Until then, some just send ''National Final Performance'', which means two things: they will either send the official video later or that national final video will become the official one, by just changing the description ;)
