Zlatas’s special message for esctoday.com readers

Zlata Ognevich will perform Gravity in the First Semi Final on 14 May 2013. Gravity was written by Mikhail Nekrasov, who was responsible for arranging Ruslana’s winning entry in 2004. The lyrics Gravity have been penned by  by Karen Kavaleryan, author of Ani Lorak’s Shady Lady and Dima Bilan’s Never Let You GoGravity is a song which one can find to be at the intersection of various cultures. Zlata says it very much coincides with the theme art of this year’s Eurovision. The intercultural sound of music in Gravity reflects the big idea of cultural diversity behind Eurovision.

Ukraine debuted at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2003 and has won the event in 2004 with Ruslana’s Wild Dances, and successfully hosted the 2005 Eurovision Song Contest in Kiev. Stay tuned to esctoday.com for the latest news on the 2013 Eurovision Song Contest.
