Dima Bilan is joined by other stars of Russia's Eurovision Song Contest past, in a special anthem to support Russian city Sochi's bid to host the Winter Olympic games in 2014.
The performers of the anthem for Sochi 2014 were chosen deliberately to represent "music across the generations", and to this end, Dima is joined by Philipp Kirkorov (Russia 1995) and Julia Savicheva (Russia 2004) amongst others. The lyrics of the anthem were written by Karen Kavaleryan, who is also the author of Dima's Eurovision runner-up Never let you go, as well as his chart hit Lady Flame. Arutyunov Nikolai is the composer.
Work on the accompanying video is almost complete, and fans can expect the song and video to be aired from September 20th. You can read more about the Sochi Olympic bid at sochi2014.com .
Dima is otherwise as busy as ever, guest starring yesterday in a concert to celebrate ten years of the network NTV+. The concert will be broadcast on 9th September in Russia.
