Re: POLAND 2018
Oh, great. Ballad from Poland? Such a brand new idea!
Personally, I don't think Sylwia Grzeszczak is able to finish in top 10, because all her songs are for sad 15YO Polish girls, she has a voice, but many huge voices lost with good songs every year, and Sylwia has any spectacular song so far, so I don't feel like she can make something good for Eurovision. I'd prefer Natalia Szroeder, she's going to participate in NF (if there will be any), but the key word is a SONG.

I can see similarity between Margaret and Blanche. Both of them were criticized because of lack of voice, being untalented etc. etc. and Blanche ended up at 4th place. I am pretty sure that "Cool Me Down" would have result as good as "City Lights". Margaret is not interested in Eurovision anymore, but who knows? "What You Do" is released worldwide but after a good debut on Spotify in some countries, it is still popular only in Poland, Sweden and a little bit in Russia (according to iTunes and airplay). Maybe she'll change her mind if her new singles won't be as much popular abroad as CMD.
Last week I've heard a disco-polo (?) song called "Nie daj życiu się" by After Party band and it thought that it would be good for ESC.. and I felt Verka Serduchka vibes, so... yes... even me... I am broken. But still - IMO 95% of disco-polo songs are weak, pathetic and bad produced - sometimes I watch POLO TV for a while and this is so hard to find something, well, at least "only okay". I still prefer us to send something catchy but modern. We'll see.
I keep my fingers crossed for something new from Carmell... and another singers as well.

So yeah, it's more of a lottery than anything else, quality is secondary sometimes.
