Justyna Steczkowska parlay the fact that you’re one of my very very favorite and most treasured artists of any genre from any country into a vaguely listenable Eurovision entry challenge (impossible) (has been failing for three decades now)

Baranovski, Margaret, Marcin Sójka, Monika Lewczuk, Arena Kłudowski, Natalia Zastępa?!?! That list would be too good to me true, imo.
I would be passed off if such artists really submitted entries to TVP and we would be getting another 2023 fiasco when we got like 2 listenable entries and only one decent performance in a whole NF Oo

Yep she wanted to send Psycho originally. Her label were adament to submit Tiny Heart. She tried to switch last minute but TVP said that was against the rules and withdrew.
This was the original list that should be confirmed tommorrow. 7/10 songs are out already. There is a Belarusian group in there.
1. Sara James - Tiny Heart
2. Kuba Szmajkowski - Pray
3. Marien - Can't Hide
4. Daria Marx - Let It Burn
5. Justyna Steczkowska - Gaja
6. Dominik Dudek - Hold The Light
7. Sw@da x Niczos - Lusterka
8. Tynsky - Miracle
9. Sonia Maselik - Rumours
10. Chrust - Tempo
Janusz Radek expected to be the replacemnt for Sara James if she withdrew.
At noon we'll know who got in. There are rumours Sara wanted to switch the song, they didn't let her so she ditched it this year.
This one? Lord have mercy....

Looks like the Sara James withdrawal stuff was true after all. Aside from that, the list is nothing surprising.
Official list as per TVP's instagram post:
- Janusz Radek – „In Cosmic Mist”
- Kuba Szmajkowski – „Pray”
- Marien – „Can’t Hide”
- Daria Marx – „Let It Burn”
- Justyna Steczkowska – „Gaja”
- Dominik Dudek – „Hold the Light”
- Sonia Maselik – „Rumours”
- Tynsky – „Miracle”
- SW@DA x NICZOS – „Lusterka”
- Chrust – „Tempo"

Sara James said she withdrew because she wanted to change her song but the organizing committee didn't allow her.

Fun fact: Janusz Radek sang the Polish opening for the first season of Pokemon.
Still a bop if you ask me.

My impression while listening for the first time
Chrust - Tempo
VERY strong intro! Powerful, haunting, mesmerizing. This strong promise of the first 20 seconds is not kept throughout the whole song. I'd expected some sort of twist / surprise / punch that didn't come. Still - a very good start. 8/10
Dominik Dudek - Hold the light
Wait - I know that vibe.... Reminds me strongly of César Sampson. I like that. This is also a very powerful entry. It's nothing we've never heard before, but it clicks with me. 8/10
Justyna Steczkowską - Gaja
Gaja is the goddess of the earth so I expect divine music. Bit messy in the beginning, but a strong beat. It fits very well the symbolic of the earth, still it doesn't completely get me. The last part is too monotonous for me. But - the third entry that has potential in my view. 7,5/10
Kuba Smajkowski - Pray
The first motive sounds familiar to me. Bit generic in terms of the building, I'd say. Now it's gaining power but it feels a bit forced for me. Overall not a bad entry but a bit too foreseeable. 7/10
Marien - Can't hide
OMG that sounds as if it was a variation of "pray" with a female singer. Is it the same team behind? The chorus is different though, but not very convincing. This is even more generic. Heard a million times before. Not annoying, but it won't stay in my memory once it's over. 6,5/10
Sonia Maselik - Rumours
One of the songs where you immediately have a picture of the staging in your head. She in the middle - five half naked dancers around. I like the vibe though, even if this is nothing really new. I somehow like that. 7,5/10
Sw@DA x NICZOS - Lusterka
Sounds very artsy in the beginning. The singing part is somewhat interesting, but I automatically checked my phone for a malfunction, because the instrumental part is more of a noise than music. Not my cup of tea - I rather find that annoying. It's one of the "OMG let's do everything to appear super artsy"-songs that I find just unpleasant to listen to. 4/10 for the effort and the electronic riff in the second part which has a nice nostalgic trance-vibe.
Tynski - Miracle
So here it is - the ballad. Doesn't hurt, doesn't catch me either. It's a nice track that I wouldn't skip but I find myself getting distracted while listening to it which never is a good sign. 6/10
That's it for the moment. I'm curious for Daria Marx - Let it burn and Janusz Radek - In cosmic mist which I couldn't find a video/audio so far.

Janusz Radak might be disqualified for performing his entry at a concert back in June.
