What Is Ukraine’s Eurovision Song?
“Heart of Steel” is a song by the Ukrainian electronic duo Tvorchi. The duo say the song warns about the dangers of nuclear warfare saying they looked into the history of the contest and how it was created after WW2 to unite Europe. “Today, while some are playing with nuclear threats, people with steel hearts are protecting all of Europe.”
Tvorchi member Andrii Hutsuliak started writing “Heart of Steel” in 2022, during the siege of Mariupol. After watching videos of the Ukrainian army defending the Azovstal Iron and Steel Works, he was inspired to write a song based on the determination not to give up the area.
