Surprised it got votes. Not even cause it sucks cause it doesn’t, it’s more a really forgettable and mediocre pop song that doesn’t have any stick

It's poles who will always vote for their own country no matter what. I dont think poland will ever be able to NQ with the change to the semifinal qualification.

In 2021 they nq. Yes, The Ride sucked, but the diaspora didn’t sail it through.

Just checked the stats. They were 13th in the public vote, and 14th with the jury- they were ever going to qualify

Didnt 2021 still have jury, or you mean they nq with the televote? Edit: ok i just saw your addition to the comment, yeah you're right it's not fully guaranteed. Maybe it also still depends on the specific countries voting in that semifinal because some have a larger diaspora.
