Krystian Ochman himself said about the song “River”:
“In a world where most of us work under great stress and pressure, we constantly think about what lies ahead and try to plan for the future. For various reasons, there are a lot of doubts about what is coming. The song is about how much we want and need a break from all the hustle and bustle.”
Seriously… who needs Andrea Bocelli when you’ve got a voice like Ochman? ??#Eurovision #ESC2022 pic.twitter.com/FKyGZAQZk6
