Inspired by the richness of folklore beliefs and legends, young Bulgarian singers Bisera and Lidia created the song "Heart", which is about love as a driving force. The lyrics are in a folk version, but without specific dialect words.

 Petar Aleksiev, Aleks Nushev and Atanas Borisov from ANP Music Production authored the music, the arrangement and the sound design. The famous musician Iliya Iliev took a special part in the arrangement. He added interesting timbres to the sound with his tarogato (taragor), a single-reed wind instrument, widely played in the folk music of Hungary and Romania. Aleks Nushev- tambura/tanpura,  Petar Aleksiev-piano.
