To achieve something that would make people see that they can do anything if they really desire to.
Accept our congratulations with the premiere of the video «I will», and tell, how and where did the video shoot go and how is it to work in a team with Geegun?
Working in a team with Geegun went very well. We were discussing everything. If he didn’t like something, then we changed something, and if I didn’t – changed it too. I really enjoyed the shooting because we were working as one team and there were no such moments, when someone would start arguing, because of wanting something for their own. Everything was rationally discussed and in the end we had a common opinion.
In the song you say that all the adults are also children. Is there really a child inside of every adult? Should they let him out?
Of course they should, if you will be an adult all the time you won’t have that joy you used to have in the childhood. And also you can be the person you were before and just be happy, by simply being yourself.
How do you see yourself in your adulthood? Do you want to link your life with music?
It’s not even a topic to discuss! Of course I want to! When I’ll be an adult, I will help the world. People need to use less plastic ; they need to watch what they to to animals ; watch what they do to our mother earth.
