Ich Troje

Ich Troje is a Polish pop group made up of Michał Wiśniewski, Jacek Łągwa, Magdalena Pokora (aka Magda Femme, 1996-2000), Justyna Majkowska (2000-2003) and Wiśniewski's current wife Anna Świątczak (since 2003). Ich Troje was conceived in 1996 by songwriter Michal Wisniewski and composer Jacek Łągwa. The group's name can be translated as "The Three of Them." The group's music is castigated by the critics , and Michal Wisniewski frankly claims himself that he can't actually sing. Nevertheless, since about 2000, Ich Troje has been one of the most popular Polish groups. They have sold over 1.5 million records since June 2001. In the last two years Ich Troje has given over 300 concerts. Their songs talk about love, betrayal, break-ups. On 25 January 2003, the public of Poland chose Ich Troje to represent them in 2003 Eurovision Song Contest through a televoting process. They preformed a song called "No borders" in three languages (Polish, German, and Russian). The song came in seventh place overall. In 2006, Poland once again chose Ich Troje to represent them at Eurovision Song Contest 2006 with the song "Follow My Heart," featuring O-Jay from the successful Eurodance act Real McCoy. They got eleventh place in the semi-finals, one away from qualifying for the finals."
