The Water of Life Project
The Water of Life Project was created specifically for the 2016 Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2016. The song, Water of Life, was written by lead vocalist Sofia Fisenko in collaboration with Rita Dakota.The Russian entry in the 2016 Junior Eurovision Song Contest, Water of Life, describes what is happening in the souls of teenagers as they get older. It is a metaphorical comparison of a child's voice, filled with light and pure love to the world. The Water of Life Project also embodies Russian traditions and ethnic motifs.
