Ukrainian Rock Star Teases Fans Over Rumored Presidential Bid

A Ukrainian rock star who polls suggest has a shot at winning next year’s presidential election has released a song hinting he’ll confirm long-standing rumors of a run for the country’s highest office.

The latest track by Okean Elzy, Ukraine’s most popular band, is stoking speculation on social media that frontman Svyatoslav Vakarchuk will announce a challenge to President Petro Poroshenko at the ballot box in March. Lyrics, all written by the singer, include “how many of us have souls that hurt, have woken up and can’t sleep in these new times,” and “we’ve had enough of the lies, we’re dizzy from artificial dreams.”
