Kasia Kowalska, very modest, great Polish artist (792 words)
Kasia was born at 13 of June 1973.
In 1996 Kasia got into Eurovision festival.There she sang a song very difficult to sing (I know what I am writing - I was trying to sing this song) titled "Chce znac swoj grzech", but the jury found her song not very good (these guys don't know what is really good).Finally she was 14th there.
I need to add that all lyrics Kasia wrote by herself."Pelna obaw" is also Kasia's protest against the violence (she wrote very telling lyric to song titled "Co moze przyniesc nowy dzien" and made very telling videoclip).
