Agnieszka Chylinska (born 23 May, 1976 in Gdansk) is a Polish rock singer and columnist (she writes for the Polish magazine Machina).
From 1994 until 2003 Chylińska was the vocalist with Polish rock band O.N.A. She has also been one of the judges in the Polish edition of Got Talent franchise called Mam talent!.
In 2004 Agnieszka's first solo album Winna (Guilty) was released (it sold 33,000 copies).
Currently, Agnieszka is finishing work on her new album with the Plan B duet (i.e. former members of the Polish R&B band, Sistars).


im..uh..scared..

This year, Agnieszka released her second solo album, Modern Rocking. And while her debut album, Winna (Guilty), recorded with two members of her previous rock band O.N.A. basically contained hard rock material, this time Agnieszka recorded 9 dance-pop songs, providing a shock to most of her fans. The album was produced by a duo Plan B (i.e. two members of a great Polish R&B band, Sistars).
Here's a great song off Agnieszka's new album, "Powiedz" ("Say"):
Here's my free translation of the lyrics to this song:
Chorus
say just a word and I'll dare to be myself
say just a word and I'll dare to be with you
say just a word and I'll dare to be myself
say
1st Verse
it's time, it's yet another sign
you can't live just like that
when there's nothing in your heart
there was a time when fate scorned me
a time when fear laughed in my eyes
today the tears came and it's so hard for me
so hard for me again
2nd Verse
there are days when everything yells it's wrong
days when everyone's silent in a bad moment
sometimes it's worth waiting so many years
to see it, to hear it for the first time
Last Chorus
say just a word and I'll dare to be myself
please tell me, please confess to me
say just a word, just a word
just one word, tell me just a word
say just a word, just a word, just a word
say eventually - you and me...
And here's the video for the first single, "Nie moge Cie zapomniec" ("I Can't Forget You"):
I personally think that this song sounds a lot like a blend of Daft Punk and 2000's Madonna.
Again, my translation of the lyrics:
1st Verse
to love you is to have a thorn in the heart and feel it hurt each day
every step hurts me, every thought, I bear it with me each day
how do I tear you out of my heart? it's like not living anymore and not knowing what fear is
maybe it's time for this thorn to bloom in us
Chorus
I want to give you so much
I want you to have me
nothing can happen to us now
you're not alone
nothing can happen to us now
it's time, today
I open myself and I want you to be, I want you to be here
I can't forget you
2nd Verse
night and evil - let it sleep, let it thrill
and you come now, you be, you sleep
now I'm not afraid to take what's good
now I'm not afraid because you love me
