simonPL, you don't need to be afraid to post news about Margaret and CMD here. This is their rightful thread. The haters can just GTFO, if they want.

I am not afraid and yes, I know it. Personally I think this is okay to post in here, but the atmosphere is really not healthy even if this thread is strongly connected with our National Final and all the people/songs from Polish final.

There is a name of Michał on the top of this page, so I decided to be overreacted somewhere else :p and leave this topic for news related to Polish current entry. That's why the thread about being obssesed with some songs is a good choice to move "Cool Me Down" discussion in my opinion - I don't want to read another "leave it, she lost!" comments. I think it is good for everyone. :cool::mrgreen:

I will be back to this thread in May, I will keep my fingers crossed for Poland (because it I don't want us to withdraw), but now I am not that much into "did he cut his hair or not" kind of talks. :mrgreen:

Oh come on... :rolleyes: I just ONCE dared to say that I would prefer more talking about Michal in this thread than mourning for Margaret. Does it make "Margaret hater" of me? :lol: I really hope not. Anyway, I apologize if I offended you or someone else by calling Margaret a "dead parrot". It was just a little popcultural reference, nothing more and nothing less.

[MENTION=14197]Ritararita[/MENTION] No, please don't take personally. :) I have not in my mind any particular person - I have written it in general. And also I am not feeling like any comments in this thread are addressed directly to me even if I don't like "Color of your life" and I am very disapointted by Poland's choice.

To be honest, now I am more like a reader of all those posts (more than a participant of discussion), but it is known that some, let's say, key words and phrases are really stimulating for some users in here :D and I agree that once Michał Szpak won NF, so he should be the main subject of discussion here.

As I said, I know that there is a lot of "Cool Me Down" fans in Polish thread, that's why I would like to inform them that I have an interesting news about this song and I found a better thread to post it, because it would be annoying to discuss charts positions of song that is not Polish entry in this topic which relates to Polish entry.

I hope everything is clear now and, seriously, I look at all those things in here from a really really long distance. :D ;)

It's funny when i first heard this song, I didn't like it at all. I have to say I have changed my mind over the last few weeks, it's very pleasant to listen too. Not a winning song but a nice entry. Good luck Poland from the UK.

I really like this interviewer. Now I finally know what´s his name and can stop calling him "that ESCKAZ guy with a big nose". :D So, Michael Starling. What a strange coincidence...

After 18 OGAE votes only 7 points for him, not a winner alert. Or are OGAE members still frustrated because of Margaret?

Nope. Quality of "Color of your life" has nothing to do with Margaret. :)
Anyway, "Cool Me Down" was chosen for Second Change OGAE contest (or something like that :p) to OGAE members will have an oppoartunity to vote for her as well.

As I can see in YT comments section below Michał's interview, he said that his favourite song is Freddie's "Pioneer", right? It's nice. I like that song too.

Margaret speaks English better (kill me :lol:)

Nice interview. He was a bit nervous, I can understand that, I am nervous too when I have to speak English with someone from abroad. :p

Yes, same here. I still remember my first talks and conference calls with international people at work for example, so I can totally understand that he was nervous.
(And also I had the same thought about language skills of... :p)

I find this song to be too overrated, I get he has a good voice but the song itself ...... It's just nothing special, Poland has really let me down after SLAVIC GIRLS......... CLEO and DONATAN please do come back.

Yes, he sounds like officer Crabtree from "Allo Allo!" sitcom. :lol: But it makes him even more likeable in my eyes, as my own English has similar qualities. :mrgreen:

And for the "overrated/underrated"... It´s most definitely not overrated on this forum, that´s clear. But I noticed earlier (and now again with the two new ESCKAZ videos) that whenever they post something with Michal in it, it gets much more views than the rest. And there is always much more comments under the videos, most of them positive. That is certainly a good sign that it´s generally not so underrated anymore. But does it mean it´s "overrated"? We will see.

Yes, he likes at least two Freddies - Freddie Mercury and the hungarian guy :D

One of the most unexplicable fanwanks of the year. But I kinda have a feeling the juries will kill this
