push back, for example, from my feelings , i.e. if i will feel better in my soul if i celebrate or if i did not participate in the public survey of the celebration because they feel guilt and shame in front of people who are in the trenches of war, it is not my responsibility, but again, helping a few people there, at least one i am a person, i can do it, i can do it, and when a person helps someone and does not try to save the whole world, then the feeling of guilt is released. christmas holidays and here are the results: 34% of ukrainians are not going to do it, but 66% plan to celebrate, they will mostly do it at home in the family circle of lilya honcharuk and dmytro panov, public news, the last preparations for christmas are taking place in lapland, and it is there, near the city of rovaniemi, that the residence of santa claus is located every year he receives

of public broadcasting thank you for coming to us today on this difficult day for kyiv after the russian kamikaze drones interrupted the sleep of our children and on the night of st. nicholas, i congratulate i'm already used to greeting without saying good afternoon, because it really is a day. today was so stressful, but thank you for the invitation. i remember your recent post on instagram from december 16. and when there was another massive rocket attack on kyiv, you then posted a photo with the caption kyiv air anxiety, basement, cucumbers, dog , antistress, and you spent this night in the same company. and while holding your dog close to

you in the same place, only my subscribers pointed out to me that it is necessary to remove glass jars from the shelves, because i have preservation in the basement and they are really correct they noticed, i didn't know about it, i didn't even think about it. that it's dangerous, the walls must be empty, there's nothing on them, that's why i listened to this recommendation today. just in case some drones, do you remember this story when the conservation bank was built not so precisely, yes, but in principle, for almost 10 months, full-scale russian aggression against ukraine, the vast majority of kyivans, not only kyivans, more or less adapted to air alarms, but they could not get used to it and will never get used to it but to the schedule of power outages, which are not always sustained. because there are also emergency

outages, and it is quite difficult to get used to, especially when the power goes out for a long time, we are left without the benefits of civilization, and here is yours how did these power outage schedules affect the work? well, we felt it very strongly because all the equipment in the studio is uh, well, it's dangerous for the equipment, it's very delicate, and it's not adapted to these blackouts, hmm, so we bought a generator, we have it -e we have a private house and our studio is actually there, so somehow it saves us a little, but for example , we were supposed to release our music video for the song mayak recently, and there was supposed to be animation there, and now the third

studio refuses to work with the animation, the animators are ukrainian because they are in mostly everyone is in kyiv and they just can’t work fully, can’t meet the deadlines. what are you doing? at the time when the lights are turned off, if it’s daytime, of course, well, if it’s daytime, there’s a lot more you can do. to communicate more in my personal life, how did these outages affect me? well, of course, they affected me as a popular ponytail hairstyle. how did i come to you today because there is no hot water? elementary, but in principle, we are good at because our house turned out to be quite adapted to all this, we have a barbecue on the street where you can cook a hot

breakfast in principle, we figured out how to adapt, but of course it’s, well, i’m used to it, it’s nonsense - it’s discomfort, it’s not what we are educated by obz yes, or how it was a subject at school, activity was generally a boring subject that everyone skipped, but it turns out not to be necessary i can't. i have a difficult topic of eurovision , because it is fresh, it is new. and the people chose you from among nine candidates. you are a member of the jury of the national selection of eurovision from the first. this was ours. well

, the word is correct, they survived, they lived. well, first of all, i initially agreed to be in this long letter . i am very pleased that people voted, it all happened in the application, the action was transparent. we all saw how the picture of this changed. voting is all online, but they expected that you would be removed well, i wanted to take part in such a large-scale and well, this is a historical event , everything that is happening in ukraine now is a historical event a-a and this is a historical event in the musical life of ukraine eurovision selection during the war i wanted to be before this, i experienced it in a tangential way, i felt it for myself, i was not afraid that there would be something to argue about, i think, well, now everyone understands that it is necessary to unite, and i

think that this eurovision went well enough it wasn't calm, well at least i don't see any scandals now. that is, everyone was set on a positive wipe and the members of the jury, including the members of the jury, talk like this about the fact that the negative sets itself up, then the positive will be perceived much better, i just remember that everyone was waiting for some kind of scandal, nothing happened and well , because everyone didn't want a scandal and avoided it and were friendly to each other , that is, a scandal is not interesting to unite on the contrary. it was difficult to choose the best among the best, so it's difficult because, according to the rules , you have to score from one point until ten one is the lowest score and to give it to people

who have already passed the selection, to people for whom you have deep respect, who in this extremely difficult time managed to write really good competitive songs, to prepare a number , to sing in a cold subway, where there are constant drafts and the movement of trains. in general, to take this positive energy somewhere in order to share it with everyone, that is, i really respect each of the participants, and secondly, well, it is wrong in general, it is difficult to evaluate music like that, they live so differently and that’s the way it is . of professional members of the jury, it is also to analyze the vocals, to analyze the performance of the number, the energy, the confidence on the stage, that is, because the songs themselves are beautiful and it is very difficult to

evaluate them among themselves. you have contestants, for example, there is jerry hale, cool, well, others whom you have known for a long time, no, but knowing their great creative potential, did you expect more from them, do you believe in what they showed? i think they are the opposite exceeded my expectations, and really, for the contestants who were already known to people , expectations are always overestimated, but we saw we heard the songs a few days before the selection, they were already on social networks, i had the opportunity to familiarize myself with them and i will say that i liked the songs much more live than in the

recording, and when i listened to the recordings, i made mental evaluations. and i can say that they radically changed during the live performance, during the selection, because when you see an artist on stage, you only then understand whether he captivates with his energy hall or not, is he fine-tuning because uh, have you heard this live, my favorites were krut and i really liked the song tuesday , this is such a new group for me, i 've never heard of it before. these are street musicians. as far as i uh, i know from them stories rockers well sorry my soul she opened for them i listened to their song in a circle that is i really liked the lyrics and the real one of these guys

but at the live performance they performed much worse than i imagined it was a disappointment for you i was upset because i very i 'm rooting for the young ukrainian rock scene because really, somehow, in other styles, somehow more new music is appearing on the electronic field of pop music, more is appearing. they just need more experience, they need to allow themselves to be free on stage and understand that an artist is still an entertainer, it's not only about music. if you just want to release music for people to listen to with headphones, that's one thing. if you want you have to perform well, allow yourself to perform, and they are still a little like teenagers, such maximalism on the internet

, we have a colleague, viktor dyachenko, from the social culture tv channel, regarding the beginning of the national selection, you said the following. artists and personalities, have these expectations of yours come true, does the winner of this year's selection of a band creatively meet this criterion, for sure when i said these words, i meant it my next favorite friend is krutya marina because uh, basically the judges voted for her the most, she got 10 points from the jury it's hard to listen to her, i confess because she's very dramatic, i'm not sure if europeans would have

experienced the same hmmm all we feel when we listen to such words about the fact that the father of the beasts will drive away our enemies and you, little one, are sleeping because you are safe, the leg will be hidden from me, the father of the beasts will drive away and you are sleeping. i pray to you, i understood that there is a very strong message from ukraine correct song she is very it's dynamic, it's not boring, it's not there, many people wrote a lullaby, you can fall asleep to this lullaby, no hardly anyone would fall asleep because there is such a dynamic at the end, marina is beautiful, our national bandura, and well, everything seemed very harmonious, and i

specifically listened to some of the personalities interviews before the eurovision given by contestants and marina said some such correct and insightful things and i understand that eurovision is not only a performance on stage and for ukraine it is also an opportunity to speak to the world in an interview on press conferences on these red carpets to have access to the international press, and i think that it would be able to broadcast something very deep and the prices for us, uh, the audience gave preference to urban planners, do you agree with them? did no, we gave the band 9 points in the creative process. that is, these are our uh yes and in principle for me they were very impossible to compare them because they are

just two different is ukraine ready to present itself at eurovision? this is not the way we are used to with traditional motifs with traditional melodies, instruments, national flavor, in unproven ways, because we have already tested it. our youth culture, that ukraine is not only beautiful traditions, but also such a youth drive, this is uh, um, this is the power of power

. they just directly showed the danger of nuclear weapons and a nuclear explosion in the production, i don't know if they will allow such a specific message to be made at eurovision. i would like to remind europe once again about this danger. i am sure that andrii will be able to express all the messages that are needed for an interview, he gives an excellent interview. he speaks beautifully jeffree communicates well in the ukrainian language i know it is him inter words in the ukrainian language is a phenomenon for me in general, many people write that he is not ukrainian, as if he was not born here in ukraine, but how is he going to represent our well, you know the country. he is here now during the war. he wrote a lot of ukrainian-language songs that they wrote before february 24, unlike many ukrainian artists who did not write in ukrainian all this time. i consider them a

ukrainian band. he studies the ukrainian language, he can communicate in it and gives i have great respect for him during this interview, and i do not agree with such comments, considering that ukraine was actually one of the first to choose its representative for eurovision. participants, it is impossible, however, if you evaluated well , i will not say the chances, but the prospect of a double for ukraine. it seems to me that this is not the main thing for ukraine now to win the eurovision song contest in kyiv, i hope we will win it, but the main thing is to declare ourselves, show how interesting, how different we can be, what contemporaries can be we are truly european, youthful and progressive, and i am sure that creativity will cope with this. it will be interesting to see them among other contestants, but

the fact that they will look worthy is 100% ." how did this war affect you personally why you learned how she changed your outlook , for sure before the war, my life was absolutely carefree, joyful and very happy because i was born and raised in a very friendly good family, i have my beautiful family, i have a good career and i have never

felt grief in my life, i have never lost people close to me and that's all i, uh, that's you, the maximum threshold of grief, i went through the war first, it was a shock for me because i wasn't i wasn't prepared for this because my life was prepared, but still , dramas happen to people personal in life all the same, there are some psychological moments when people become stronger, then i was very uh internally i seem so very strong and the front is in uman and hardkiss and rock, but in reality i am very, well, very tender in my soul, as they turned out, because m i was very broken by the war, psychologically devastated. the

first few months were probably the most difficult in my life, but with that, we began to return to creative life, began to write songs, began to perform. we began to be useful, began to collect for charity , that is, i realized that i needed it started bring me back to life i think i have become stronger i stopped believing that the world is a beautiful place where everyone is happy for you and everything is for you and if this is this saying that if this happens, it means that it is the best, everyone is like that, it means that someone needs this, that's all i i don't believe in it anymore. i understand how hard everything can be. sometimes i look at

europeans and just think, how would they endure everything that is happening to us now and you just understand that god, how strong we are now . surely everything that you did not plan on this year was a mess. at first, on a large scale, it was russia against ukraine, you did not give up, and you held almost 20 charity concerts, but with creativity, correct me if i say that there were certain problems, because only two singles were released this year, yes, one of them - this is the song mayak i say was recently written, however, it was written a few years ago, why did they come back? what prompted you to get it again for the first time after it was written during vinnytsia how mama how are you and

on the nerve is very dramatic and very difficult to perform live emotionally and wanted to to write some very motivating, very driving , strong and energetic song. and it is much more difficult to do this than to write a lyre, which i will tell you in such a situation as ours is now. that is why we looked for something that already had some demos and we had a demo mayak , but it was also not the same as when you can hear it now, we overclocked it to maximum energy, we worked on it for several months so that it really has this sound, uh, yes, and even metallic, it’s not even a year, you’re already metallic, he charged to the maximum and i i just imagined how our boys are winning back their territory and listening to the track yes, i want

her to inspire them. that's how she is, she's about the fact that at the moment every person is important, everyone can become your beacon, the light that you will follow, that will save you in it is the fiercest storm, we are now going through this storm, i added the following additional lines at the end, these are already fresh lines after the war about the fact that in a wild storm i have one in every sea there is a lighthouse for you at the very end you have already decided to celebrate the new year and christmas and will you celebrate at home here eh hm well i am not sure that i will celebrate because now it is more for me, a children's holiday is for a child and the child is not in ukraine

. nicholas, and yesterday i gave birth to a christmas tree, this is the only thing . i must have done something to create a mood for myself. here i am. i think that it will be completely quiet and calm at home, and i want to ask about one more holiday. have you already decided how it will be , how and where you will determine the day of our victories oh my god, of course it’s here in kyiv, where i can’t even imagine, so far it’s so hard for me to imagine how exactly it will be, whether we’ll all go out in the square on the street or where we’ll be from the ram, for sure, for sure it will be some kind of massive no no no i i want to say yes, but that's not the right word either, you know when
