New single by the band Ziferblat
According to Главком: The band Ziferblat, representing Ukraine at Eurovision-2025, has released a new single titled 'Crazy'. This song will be included in the Ukrainian-language album 'Melancholia'. The composer of the piece is the band's guitarist and composer Valentyn Leshchynskyi, who noted that 'Crazy' is 'a story about how strong love transforms a person, making them 'strange' in the eyes of others and leading to a shared 'madness' of two lovers.'
The band Ziferblat was founded by twin brothers Danylo Leshchynskyi, who is the lead vocalist, and Valentyn Leshchynskyi. The band was joined by drummer Fedor Khodakov. Ziferblat's debut album 'Kinosеans' was released in 2017, and the single 'At Night' was presented at the 'X-Factor' show in 2019, two years after their debut.

Valentyn Leshchynskyi commented on the process of creating the song 'Crazy': 'This is one of the most recent songs from the album that I personally wrote. I wanted to convey a state where you can no longer keep it in your head and seem to start losing control. This is when your roof 'goes off' from love.'
The band Ziferblat continues its creativity, confirming its place on the music scene of Ukraine and beyond.
The release of the new single 'Crazy' by Ziferblat marks another stage in the band’s career as they strive to establish their identity and style on the Ukrainian music scene.
