Poland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2015
[1] Poland's highest placement in the contest, to this point, has been second place, which the nation achieved with its debut entry in 1994 with the song "To nie ja!"Poland has only, thus far, reached the top ten on one other occasion, when Ich Troje performing the song "Keine Grenzen – Żadnych granic" finished seventh in 2003.Between 2005 and 2011, Poland failed to qualify from the semi-final round six out of seven years with only their 2008 entry, "For Life" performed by Isis Gee, managing to take the nation to the final during that period.Among the artists rumoured to have been selected by the broadcaster included Anna Wyszkoni, Agnieszka Chylińska, Doda, Halina Mlynkova, Margaret and Sylwia Grzeszczak, while Edyta Górniak, who represented Poland in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1994, was also revealed to have submitted an entry to TVP for consideration.[4] On 8 March 2015, it was announced that the Polish entry would be presented the next day during the TVP1 programme Świat się kręci, hosted by Agata Młynarska and Maciej Kurzajewski.[10] On 18 April, Kuszyńska performed during the Eurovision in Concert event which was held at the Melkweg venue in Amsterdam, Netherlands and hosted by Cornald Maas and Edsilia Rombley.[11] In addition to her international appearances, Monika Kuszyńska also completed promotional activities in Poland where she performed "In the Name of Love" during a joint TVP press conference with Austrian broadcaster ORF in Kraków on 16 April.[21][22] The three backing vocalists that joined Kuszyńska on stage were: Ola Tabiszewska, Jan Radwan and Natalia Bajak, while the pianist was the co-composer of "In the Name of Love" and her husband Kuba Raczyński.Each nation's jury consisted of five music industry professionals who are citizens of the country they represent, with their names published before the contest to ensure transparency.This jury judged each entry based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act.
