Anyway, "Color of your life" went Platinium in Poland - 20.000 copies sold.

Dzięki blue00eyes

Michal is a true winner at heart.

Radio Eska, the most popular radio station for young people in Poland, started playing "Color of your life"... a few days ago.
They added it to their "Hot 20" music chart as well. Well.. a little bit late. But still I am surprised.

Journalist: But it was later, first we had jury votes.
Michał: I wasn't interested.
Journalist: Really? Didn't you as an artist feel that it was a mistake, something is wrong..
Michał: What was wrong?
Journalist: Points, so few...
Michał: This is jury, I don't have any influence, I sang for the audience, not for juries.

good lord i can hear from here in brazil the sound of all the maltese wigs being snatched

what a deity

Margaret is very happy for Michał's success, she said he should've been higher but the must important is that many people fell in love with his song.

What a wonderful human being

Better than one of her dancers, who destroyed Edyta's dress before NF

I just thought about this way after the victory of Jamala, but 'Color of Your Life' was also a strong contender, and many people did underestimate this song.

 

[GianlucaTomoe]

This song was never a contender for anything, and the low score that it had in the jury voting proves it.

Why did it qualify for the grand final then?
Provided that the song scored enough points in order to sail through the semi-final, then I don't see why it shouldn't be a contender for the golden trophee, as Malta, Spain or even Germany was.

I said it many times, it was mostly because of the whole "fetishism" that had been created around the persona of Michał Szpak. If that same song had been sung by somebody else less freakish, it would've had a "Made of stars"-result in the televoting.

I don't think so.
Let's head to France, during the night of the grand final (as we couldn't vote in the SF2). No one knew how much many people hyped Michał, due to the fact that he dressed like an old-fashioned prince, with those terrible outfits...
However, you can see that gave some points to in the grand final's televoting, then...
I assume that his powerful voice did influence French people (and mostly the others, as he got the 3rd place in the televoting... ).

Poland in 1999 sent a similar entry to this one, but that one ended up 18th. Just saying...

People's taste for music might not evolve since 1999...
It should probably have been regressing.

John stop it, there is no point in arguing with him.

Or, as I said, this year the similar "Made of stars" was 3rd-to-last in the televoting in the same semifinal.
