Poland POLAND 2021 - RAFAŁ - The Ride

[escYOUnited]

Lights, beaming down the rainy street
All the faces that I meet tell me I'm wrong
Ride, staring at the neon signs
Making up a storyline, gotta hold on
Not lost, even in the death of night
I can make it out alright
Just let me go
Yeah, I, I will make it through somehow
Let me figure out what is in and out

So baby, hold on for the ride of your life
High above ground, living it now
I'm gonna take you to the end of the line
Taking that fight, make it alright
It doesn't matter if I stumble and fall
I'll make it through, I'll never touch the ground
So baby, hold on for the ride of your life
Hold on real tight, make it alright

Hard, I won't give my heart and soul
I am going for the glow, no looking back
I'm gonna rise high up in the atmosphere
I ain't got no time to fear
Follow my tracks

Not lost, following the neon lights
Shooting through the summer skies
Just let me go
Yeah I, I will make it through somehow
Let me figure out what is in and out

So baby, hold on for the ride of your life
High above ground, living it now
I'm gonna take you to the end of the line
Taking that fight, make it alright
It doesn't matter if I stumble and fall
I'll make it through, I'll never touch the ground
So baby, hold on for the ride of your life
Hold on real tight, make it alright

I'm gonna take all the world tonight (Oh-woah-oh-oh)
Not gonna ask, gonna take what's mine (Oh-woah-oh-oh)
So hold on tight, baby, let's get high (Oh-woah-oh-oh)
High above the ground
Ride, staring at the neon signs
Let me figure out what is in and out

So baby, hold on for the ride of your life
High above ground, living it now
I'm gonna take you to the end of the line
Taking that fight, make it alright
It doesn't matter if I stumble and fall
I'll make it through, I'll never touch the ground
So baby, hold on for the ride of your life
Hold on real tight, make it alright​

Amen (to that).

Which one?

 

[Yoozek]

Don't we have any surprising clue for our artist from TVP today?

 

[Looren]

Send Alicja

Don't we have any surprising clue for our artist from TVP today?

I'm praying that they reveal at least the gender of the singer. If we get another "it's a singer born in Poland" or "it's a singer with a career in singing" I'm done.

is slowly rising on the betting odds due to the pure mentioning of "sanah"'s name #queen

So far, no useless clue had been posted. - My guess: They had been running out of clues since they still haven't made a final decision yet

damn imagine Sanah - I'm begging because Semi-final 2 kinda needs some quality.. I swear if we end up with Rafal.. what are these HoDs thinking seriously..

 

[John1]

if poland sends this motherfreaking Rafal and not a (more deserving) talented singer, I'm going to riot so much

hm so this guy is saying that some other guy (don't know who Szymkowiak is haha) is saying that he was saying it's a female singer?

can any Polish person here explain

 

[Yoozek]

In three words: That dude who's a presenter in "Pytanie na śniadanie" (that breakfast shitshow in which we'll see who is going to represent us) by mistake used female form of some verbs..... then added male forms as well. Not a big deal

hmm. but was it a mistake? I'm not sure but in Slovene when trying to be neutral we are using the male pronouns?

 

[Yoozek]

I'm not really sure what that was about, but direct translation would be that "the singer (female form) got stressed (female form)....... or the singer (male form)". Smells fishy, but we shouldnt' care that much

ok then.. gives me at least a bit of hope that it's not Rafal haha

Well, that's true. Female pronouns used by journialist may suggest that our representative will be a girl, but we don't know what he excatly said and maybe it was just a mistake. But if he knows who TVP will send, why would he use female form?

Fun fact: Edyta Górniak gave an weird interview for "Jastrząb Post" - she said that she heard our song and the song is not in her style, but people in Europe may like it, because it's "commercial". Then she said that she doesn't mind if Rafał Brzozowski will represent Poland, because he is such a nice person.

So what kind of song did she hear if she knows the song but she dosn't know who sings it? A demo posted on this topic?

Dziennik-eurowizyjny reported that TVP changed director of our peformance. It will be the same guy who was director of 2014 (My Słowianie!) and 2015 Polish entry. He wanted to send "Cool Me Down" in 2016, but new leadership of TVP decided to do natonal finals and he was not an director anymore. Now he's back.

Speaking of Sanah - as we know she is going to announce "something huge" this Friday. Is a new album "something huge"? I am not sure, new albums of recording artists are pretty regular so I hope that she bumped Rafał from a job, haha. And there is an unreleased English version of "Ale jazz!" single, so...

OMG SANAH! she is soo good! Kinda wish she sang in Polish tho! and great that we have someone back who had taste and wanted to send Margaret in 2016. But also if Edyta heard the song.. I would not say Sanah is exactly "commercial".. so I doubt it's her + a new album is way more likely.. It may be Cleo or Alicja I think..

I hope it is Verona from 2007 MF!

What a beautiful disco polo schalger in Italiana language!

And another one!

Please TVP, just pick Veronica for Rotterdam!

A NF with:
1. Iwona Wegrowska
2. Verona
3. Man Meadow
4. Ich Troje
5. Some huge disco polo act from Poland
6. Izabela Kopec

would be a dream!

 

[Mainshow]

Took a nap before the 3 hrs Bulgarian special concert to have some energy left to get through this and I dreamt of TVP announcing CLEO to be the Polish entrant

An English version of Ale jazz! ? How do you know it's even been recorded?

A few days ago Sanah had a live on her fb and she sang a bit of Ale Jazz in English so maybe a full recorded version exists somewhere. If I recall correctly she said she originally wrote this song in English.
