/0 Comments/in , , /by

Poland is returning to its national final format for the first time since 2023, giving the public the opportunity to choose the country’s representative for the 69th Eurovision Song Contest. Following a live audition round, TVP has just unveiled the ten artists who will compete for the honor of representing Poland in Basel.

The line-up of the Polish preselection for Eurovision 2025

The lineup for the Polish Eurovision 2025 preselection includes the following artists:

How were the ten finalists selected?

TVP launched a submission window back in November for the artists interested. After the closing of the submission window, submissions were reviewed by a professional jury. This panel will consisted of between nine to fifteen members, including representatives from TVP, artists, media professionals, and Eurovision fans.

The jury selected twenty-five songs from all submissions. A casting process was held among these selected artists, with the possibility that some acts could be directly qualified for the final without needing to go through the casting.

From this group, ten artists progressed to the televised national final. Additionally, two reserve entries were also selected in case of any withdrawals or changes.

The Final

The grand final of Poland’s Eurovision 2025 preselection will be broadcast live on February 14th, 2025, in Warsaw. Unlike the previous editions, the winner will be determined entirely by the public, who will cast their votes via SMS.

In the event of technical difficulties with the SMS voting system, TVP has put in place a contingency plan. Should a voting failure occur, the backup jury will select the winner based on their preferences.

After the final, TVP will publish the full results of the SMS voting, ensuring transparency in the selection process.

Last year Poland was represented by Luna with the song “The Tower” without however managing to qualify for the grand final as she finished in 12th place in the first semi-final with 35 points.

Poland: With Michał Szpak to Eurovision 2025?

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Even though TVP is yet to officially announce that it will compete in Eurovision 2025, local artists are still very interested in the prospect. Following the expressions of interest from JoJo Siwa and Justyna Steczkowska, Michał Szpak, a former Eurovision representative, is now added to the list.

Michał Szpak represented Poland in 2016 with “Color of Your Life“, finishing third in televoting and eighth overall. Michał is open to return to the Eurovision stage and may have plans to do so.

Michał’s plans for Eurovision

Michał Szpak recently appeared as a guest on the YouTube channel “Polecany z WWA”. It was there that he was asked if he could imagine performing at Eurovision again. Michał then confirmed that he is seriously considering it.

I’m in touch with a group of people, producers who created Loreen’s song “Tattoo”. They would really like me to participate again. We’ll see how it goes. I also have a plan in my head.

However, he seems skeptical about it:

I don’t know if it’s my priority right now, but I’m not saying no, because it was a truly extraordinary experience.

Michał Szpak’s popularity in Poland has grown significantly since his Eurovision appearance, and many of his fans hope to see him return.

This year, Luna was selected by a TVP committee to represent Poland with her song “Tower“. However, Luna did not manage to qualify to the Grand Final, finishing twelfth in the first semi-final.

Poland: Justyna Steczkowska expresses interest for Eurovision 2025!

/0 Comments/in , /by

Justyna Steczkowska is still a sensation among Eurovision fans even though she did not win Poland’s national selection for the 2024 contest. The Polish diva impressed the crowd with her amazing dance routine and slavic sounding song “WITCH-ER Tarohoro” when she submitted it in the Polish preselection last year. Her performance thrilled fans in Poland and across the vast majority of the Eurovision fandom. Nevertheless, she was merely surpassed by Luna in the TVP internal committee voting.

Justyna Steczkowska appears to be preparing a song for Eurovision 2025, which she will submit to TVP subject to certain conditions, suggesting that her time in the competition may not be over.

Justyna’s song for Eurovision 2025

Justyna recently posted a teaser of her upcoming song on social media. She is collaborating with Hotel Torino, the composers of “WITCH-ER Tarohoro” and other popular Polish Junior Eurovision entries.

@justyna_steczkowska Jest moc ❤️ Może na Eurowizję ? #HotelTorino #JustynaSteczkowska #Eurowizja ♬ dźwięk oryginalny – justyna_steczkowska

She states that she may submit this song to TVP, suggesting that:

There is power. Maybe for Eurovision?

The final say must be given to the public

A five-person jury made the final decision in TVP’s internal selection process, where Justyna only came in second. Justyna would like to try once more only in the event that Poland goes back to its usual selection process, which includes a televised show where the public can vote for its representative. She therefore wants to return to the Eurovision stage only with the support of the general public on the 30th anniversary of her Eurovision performance.

Poland in Eurovision 2025

Up to this date, there is no official statement regarding TVP’s participation or selection method for Eurovision 2025. Following the speculation according to which JoJo Siwa was in talks with TVP about Eurovision, the Polish broadcaster mentioned that no decision has been made yet. More details regarding Poland’s participation in Basel is anticipated after Junior Eurovision, which will take place in November.

Luna was TVP’s pick for Eurovision 2024 with her song “Tower“. Unfortunately, she did not manage to qualify to the Grand Final, placing twelfth on the First Semi-Final.

Poland: TVP denies having discussions with JoJo Siwa for Eurovision 2025!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

TVP now appears to be rejecting all of the speculation that has been circulating on social media over the past few weeks regarding JoJo Siwa’s potential participation for Poland in Eurovision 2025.

Via a statement, TVP mentions that:

Ladies and Gentlemen, Referring to numerous questions regarding the preparations of Telewizja Polska for the Eurovision Song Contest 2025, we inform you that Telewizja Polska is not conducting any talks with artists on this matter and has not yet made any decisions regarding participation in the Contest. We will inform you about Telewizja Polska’s involvement in the preparations for this year’s Eurovision as soon as possible through the official TVP news channels.

Currently, Telewizja Polska is implementing the “Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2024″. We invite you to TVP2 on September 29 this year for the final of the Polish Junior Eurovision pre-selections, which will be hosted by Artur Orzech, and on November 16 for the final in Madrid.

Because of its current focus on the Junior Eurovision Song Contest, which is scheduled for November 16 in Madrid, TVP hasn’t spoken with JoJo Siwa or any other artist for Eurovision 2025.

JoJo Siwa and Eurovision

Everything began when JoJo’s brand-new song “Yesterday’s Tomorrow’s Today” grabbed fans’ attention on TikTok with its retro Polish disco vibe. It’s even said (not confirmed) that the singer has indeed Polish routes. Then, videos started to pop-up on TikTok endorsing JoJo Siwa to represent Poland in Eurovision 2025. Furthermore, it seems that JoJo Siwa is being followed by both the official Eurovision account and TVP’s account on TikTok.

JoJo Siwa is now in Poland and on a video she uploaded yesterday she confirmed that she is in talks to represent the country in Eurovision 2025. Moreover, she also mentioned that during the period when the competition will be held in Switzerland, another project of hers will be running at the same time, but this does not seem to deter her as she would make it work.
