a polish treat

Hello dear.

Whilst reeling from the hagg reeling from the injustice and indignity of facing a "lucky losers" round (a thousand swedish pot plants are probably being ripped from their roots as i write) i happened upon this "wildcard" which has made it into the Polish final without the song itself actually being uploaded onto their national final website. Yes it has been another wild Saturday on the tiles for me. Anyway, if you can see past the amateur video and the pronunciation surpassed only in incomprehensibleness by Isis Gee, I think that this could be a very enjoyable entry from Poland.



Enjoy xx

I hope the returning juries see that this is not the case. My second thought is, that over my time watching this contest , as well as some real classy chansons (notably the 2001-2002 double) and a few wobbles in the wilderness (see HMSS Naya ) France, possibly more than any other country has had a knack for throw...

Irlande douze points?

Ahead of the irish final next Friday night, one of the songs has sneaked into the public domain by having to withdraw from the Latvian final in which it was simultaneously a candidate. "I wish I could pretend" is a contemporary sounding ballad (albeit with a slightly dodgy late 80s guitar riff) which could find itself on a B side to a kelly clarkson single and for ireland, this is progress. Perhaps I am too used to hearing songs in the very early stages of production and still sounding desperately amateurish make their way into the irish final and it could be that RTE's approach this year of looking for an artist and song with a "polished product" is fuelling me with premature optimism. But on first listen, if this represents the general standard of this year's irish selection I would be far from disappointed... ... so whaddaya think??
