    Polish singer, songwriter, actress and producer. One of the best well-known women in Poland. One of the most talented businesswomen in Poland. Doda will represent Poland at OGAE Song Contest 2022 with ‘Fake love.’

    This year the song contest – OGAE Song Contest and music video contest – OGAE Video Contest have merged. This means that the song chosen by the national OGAE clubs simultaneously competes for the title of the best music video. The Polish branch of the association has already conducted the selection of this year’s representation. The list of entries included 46 original songs, which could not have been released before 2021 and came from the Eurovision and Eurovision Junior preselections.

     

    Most of them were songs that were well known by radio stations. The song was submitted and chosen by fans. The song that scored the most points was Fake Love, performed by Doda. It is this composition, along with its music video, that will fight on the forum of international Eurovision fans for a second Polish victory. The song premiered at the end of last year and last month the single won gold album status.
