Re: POLAND 2014
If this is true, it seems i was wrong about TVP not even trying. The thing is, i wasn't wrong about their competences. This choice would do nothing, but appease a niche group which already watches/watched ESC. What Poland really needs in this contest, is to gain lost popularity among the wider audience. Ich Troje entered for the first time at the peak of their popularity (and achieved Poland's second best result to date). Górniak, however, isn't popular and even her 1994 entry isn't widely remembered among the non-fans, especially those born after mid-80s. I'd even say she is nowadays most remembered for a disastrous performance of Polish national anthem at one of the world cups (and that was over 10 years ago).
Her music has nothing to do with music people in Poland listens to, which would be ska, folk, rock and even disco (a local variation of it). If somebody in TVP can't see the trends, he must be living in an isolated cage or be just blind.
Besides, she'll most likely go to Denmark with a poor copy of To Nie Ja! and score just as poorly.
