WITHIN TEMPTATION haben gemeinsam mit der ukrainischen Künstlerin Jerry Heil (Jana Oleksandriwna Schemajewa) den Song ‘Sing Like A Siren’ aufgenommen. Diese nahm im vergangenen Jahr am ESC teil und belegte den dritten Platz.
Die Band erklärt:
„‘Sing Like A Siren’ weaves together a unique blend of musical influences, with a Ukrainian folk vesnyanka as its leitmotif, a melody that is hypnotic and fluid, much like the ebb and flow of water. Blending rock, classical vocals, and Ukrainian folk elements, the song serves as both a call to action and a guiding force for the lost.“
Und Jerry Heil fügt hinzu:
“There are two main characters in this story: a girl and an elemental force – water. However, as the story unfolds, we realize there is, in fact, only one, because humans and nature are one. The raging water represents the challenges we face on the way to our ‘safe harbor’. But the key is understanding that we don’t have to fight nature. Once we see ourselves as part of it, we realize that sometimes, we are the ones who create the storm.”

Lyrics:
Her name’s hurricane
Thunder is her smaller brother
Несла крізь роки
Кривди, болі і образи
It’s pouring …
It’s spilling …
It’s already under the ceiling!
Ця повінь
Всеціло
Захоплює все моє тіло
Running with the storm
Through the thunder and the rain
But you gotta silver stern
And the bones of iron
Open all the doors
Let the water come inside and
If you you wanna face the storm
Feel the storm
Be the storm
And sing like a siren
Вийди-вийди Іваночку
Заспівай нам Весняночку
Вийди-вийди Іваночку
Заспівай нам Весняночку
I rise up from the ocean deep
Awaking from the winter sleep
In chaos I will find my peace
Sing my song my voice is free
Sing! through fire through the rain
Sing through fire through the rain
Sing! through fire through the rain
Through the fire through the rain
It’s pouring …
It’s spilling …
It’s already under the ceiling!
Ця повінь
Всеціло
Захоплює все моє тіло
Running with the storm
Through the thunder and the rain
But you gotta silver stern
And the bones of iron
Open all the doors
Let the water come inside and
If you you wanna face the storm
Feel the storm Be the storm
And sing like a siren
Вийди-вийди Івано-Іваночку
Заспівай нам Весняно-Весняночку
Зимували, зимували, зиму-зиму-зимува-зимували
Весну за-, весну за-, весну за-, весну за-, весну весну зу- весну зу- зустрічали
Her name’s hurricane
Thunder is her smaller brother
Carried through the years
Wrongs, pain and sorrow
It’s pouring …
It’s spilling …
It’s already under the ceiling!
This flood
Completely
Takes over my whole body
Running with the storm
Through the thunder and the rain
But you gotta silver stern
And the bones of iron
Open all the doors
Let the water come inside and
If you you wanna face the storm
Feel the storm
Be the storm
And sing like a siren
Come out, come out, Ivanko
Sing us a spring song
Come out, come out, Ivanko
Sing us a spring song
I rise up from the ocean deep
Awaking from the winter sleep
In chaos I will find my peace
Sing my song my voice is free
Sing! through fire through the rain
Sing through fire through the rain
Sing! through fire through the rain
Through the fire through the rain
It’s pouring …
It’s spilling …
It’s already under the ceiling!
This flood
Completely
Takes over my whole body
Running with the storm
Through the thunder and the rain
But you gotta silver stern
And the bones of iron
Open all the doors
Let the water come inside and
If you you wanna face the storm
Feel the storm Be the storm
And sing like a siren
Come out, come out, Ivanko-Ivanko
Sing us a spring-spring song
We wintered, we wintered, winter-winter-wintered-wintered
And then we welcomed spring
