The song was written under the impression of watching the footage with the defenders of “Azovstal”.
On 13 May, Liverpool will host the Eurovision 2023 final, in which Ukrainian electronic duet TVORCHI from Ternopil will perform at number 19, as part of sound producer Andriy Gutsulyak and vocalist Jeffrey Kenny. They will be performing the song “Heart of Steel”.
history of song
The R’n’B style composition “Heart of Steel” was released on December 1, 2022 as the lead single from the self-titled mini album “Heart of Steel”. Gutsulyak began to write during the legendary battles at the Azovstal plant. According to him, only the eyes of the fighters evoked real emotions in him.
“I couldn’t have imagined how hard it was for them to be there. It seems like the end, but I saw fire, willpower, and perseverance in my eyes. I got goosebumps. Under these feelings, I wrote this song. All Ukrainians got it. Gutsulyak told TSN in an interview,” With a heart of steel, the whole world should follow our example and unite in the name of peace against evil.”
The song also warns of the dangers of nuclear war.
“Today, while some play with nuclear threats, our steel-hearted people are protecting all of Europe,” says the author. The text says that humanity has chosen its own future.
With this composition, the guys performed at the national selection for Eurovision on December 17, 2022. The electronic sound and Jeffrey’s vocals wowed both the jury and the audience, giving them 9 and 10 points respectively. They won the coveted Liverpool ticket, beating KRUTU and Jerry Heil with 19 points.
“Heart of Steel” lyrics
Sometimes you gotta let go
Sometimes you have to look back
Sometimes you need to know
When should you raise your middle finger?
I can’t explain
tell me how i feel
life is just a game
And I’m playing to win.
Don’t be afraid to say what you think
Because no matter how bad it is, someone will hear you.
Choir
I don’t care what you say
It doesn’t matter how you feel.
Get out of my way
Because I have a heart of steel.
You just like to stick the fool
I’m trying to get inside my head
When I turn on the headlights
I understand you
I’m trying to get a reaction
I’m just making moves.
You know that I will never lose
You also like attention
It had nothing to do with you.
Don’t be afraid to say what you think.
Because no matter how bad it is, someone is listening.
no matter what you say
No matter how you feel
Get out of my way
Because I have a heart of steel.
