About the new single, lead singer Erik Mårtensson shared this: “When I wrote this song I had the phrase “still my hero” on my original scrap demo. The only hero I’ve ever had was my dad, so I made the whole song about him. He sadly passed away much too young in 2014. This is a tribute to a great man”.
