The group members smile, saying that as soon as they heard the first chords and words of the song “I Need You,” nostalgia flooded in – they thought that the piece must be released into a wider broadcast with new strength and sound.
“Although the film tells about divorce, it often brings positive changes. It is worth remembering for all of us that this is just one stage of life, which comes and goes. And this song is like a memory of wonderfully spent time with a loved one,” says Ingrida Martinkėnaitė.
