🇵🇱 Margaret performs her #Melfest bid song at Allsång på Skansen

Fotis Konstantopoulos (Greece)

POLAND – Whilst working on her third studio album Monkey Business, Margaret voiced Smurfstorm in the Polish-language version of the animated feature film, Smurfs: The Lost Village. To promote the film, she recorded the song “Blue Vibes”, which was released in March 2017. In April, the singer signed an advertising deal with the nail products brand Semilac in Poland.

Monkey Business was released in June 2017 and peaked at number eight in Poland. Margaret described the album as “versatile” and has said that she had more artistic control over its creative process than with her debut album. She recalled that this time she was in charge whereas with Add the Blonde she listened to and took advice from her producers.[106] Monkey Business was preceded by the single “What You Do” released in May, which reached number fourteen on Poland’s singles chart and was the ninety-first most popular song on Polish radio stations in 2017.

Margaret’s collaboration with the Swedish group Vax, titled “6 in the Morning”, was also released in May. The singer won her third consecutive Eska Music Award for Best Artist on the Internet in June. In August, it was announced that she would be appearing in Maybelline Poland’s web series Make Up in the City. The following month, she received the TVP1 Special Award at the 2017 National Polish Song Festival.

Monkey Business’s cuts, “Nie chce” (“I Don’t Want To”) and “Byle jak” (“Anyhow”), were an inspiration for a short film “Nie chce / Byle jak” starring Margaret, which was released in November and served as a music video for the songs. “Byle jak” was released as a single the following month and reached number six in Poland.

In November 2017, Swedish broadcaster Sveriges Television (SVT) announced that Margaret would take part in Melodifestivalen 2018, a competition which aims to select Sweden’s entry for Eurovision Song Contest 2018, with the song “In My Cabana”. The singer, who became the first Polish artist to compete in Melodifestivalen, revealed that she was invited to take part in the contest by the show’s producer Christer Björkman who spotted her on Swedish television.

Björkman later referred to her as “incredibly starlike”. Margaret performed in the second semi-final of the competition on 10 February 2018, and advanced to the Second Chance round known as Andra chansen. She subsequently qualified for the final, after winning her Andra chansen duel against Moncho, and finished in seventh place with 103 points. “In My Cabana” was released on the day of her semi-final performance. The song charted at number three in Poland and number eight in Sweden. In April, Margaret signed an advertising deal to promote new line of a non-alcoholic beer Warka Radler.
