Yes yes, I had spammed the 2019 Czech with exactly that campaign... I started to freak out a little as there was still 10% missing with a couple hours left, but then some big bucks came at the last moment - perhaps it's some usual practice, I don't know much about fundraising :D anyway I was happy it went through as I got receive Barbora's signed album as a result :)
She hasn't premiered the song yet, as it's out on 23rd January. So that looks quite promising ESC-wise. But I'd rather not get overly hopeful, as a precaution... We shall see in 13 hours anyway :)

I didn't know you actually participated in it :oops: You secretive little child!
Whether she's in or not, you did God's work, so thank you xlove Lucky you are to have a signed album. When I think you could have talked to her... :love:

This young woman needs more recognition. Honey, is you single? xrose

Oh, there's a missing word, I had spammed the 2019 Czech THREAD here :D but it was in the full NF season anyway :)
Go go go Barbora :) I hope the song's good, that's the most important thing.

My bad! :cry: Guess I missed a lot. Forget I said anything!!!

Yes, let's wait and see what's in store for us. :)

Oh no. I'm afraid that Pam Rabbit is not in the NF after all. Firstly, she seems to be in Berlin while she should be in Prague, getting ready for tomorrow, right? Secondly, she posted an Instagram video of her singing her upcoming single, promising it will be out as soon as she finishes editing of the music video. I assume she wouldn't do that one day before the official artists-reveal day and one week before the song-reveal if that was her Eurovision song, so... :cry: So, the 2 returnees are probably Jakub Ondra and Barbora Mochowa. Ben Cristovao (please sing something uptempo and in English) and Olga Lounová (please don't win) seem to be 90% in.

There is one more person never mentioned in this thread who could potentially be in the NF, either alone or with band - Zofie Dares. She is frontwoman of band Mydy (formerly Mydy Rabycad), but she also released one solo EP in 2018. Several days ago, Zofie posted series of InstaStories from some bar, where she was clearly shooting a music video. Coincidentally or not, Jan Bors posted InstaStory from the very same bar the very same day (I recognized it from the same lineup of pinball machines they both were posing with). Since he is no longer ČT employee, he could be just hired as some sort of freelance music-video-shooting consultant without any connection to Eurovision, but I don't believe that. We will see. Jesus, I'm so scared of the disillusion tomorrow...

He is Czech. His mother is Angolan and his father is Czech.
The other way around actually, his mother's Czech, his father's Angolan.

Do we know what time to expect the songs?
I believe we find out the artists today at 13:00 and the songs next week. Does anybody know how we'll find out about the artists/songs? There won't be two press conferences so shortly one after another, will there?

Jakub Ondra probably is one of them but I don't think Barbora will try again so soon because she didn't seem to enjoy it last year at all.

I have high hopes for Ben Cristovao. His music is good. I just hope he doesn't try to do "the perfect Eurovision song". He's very open about creating his music for the intended audience which could backfire in Eurovision where this formula usually doesn't work.

The songs will be out next Monday at 8 AM as presented by the ČT webpage.

where did you get the info from? I don't see anybody reporting anything. And no Jakub Ondra? That's quite a relief

The only name I don't know is We All Poop. Nothing to be found about them on the internet. I wonder who they are :D

Otherwise, Ben Cristovao, Čis T and Olga are big names. That's good for Czech Eurovision :)

I must be living in some different bubble then, because I honestly never heard of Čis T. Who they are? We All Poop is a big mystery as well. But Pam and Barbora in, Jakub out, that's a good news. xcheer

Was there a proper press conference with the artists present, or Kryštof Šámal just said the names and went home?

Čis T is well known Slovak rapper. In the last few years he has done some big "reggaeton"-like songs.

There was proper press conference
