When i first heard the Polish song it was a 50/50 for me there are parts of the song that are catchy and you find yourself singing along. Michal has a good voice and has good vocals. After hearing him live at the jury show, semi and final he song grow on me. Singing a ballad stage performance is standing still and singing.After caming back from Sweden I added Colour of Your Life to my paylist.
Cool Me Down by Margaret should have been Poland’s choice, but I have to admit, this song is catchy and very “Eurovision” in sound. In fact, I dare say it become a Eurovision classic. Michael’s performance was right on point. Flawless, even. Watching this song receive so many popular votes was one of the highlights of the night. I also remember Michal saying in an interview that he always dreamt of being on Eurovision and that’s exactly the people I like to see on stage. Kudos to him… and I sure love belting this one out when it comes on ESCRadio.
This was a slow-burner for me. Not a favourite to begin with but after listening a few times it grew on me. Was great to see Poland go up from last to the top 5 once the public vote was added.
