Jill Johnson has collaborated with non-profit organisation Folkspel and Sverigelotten to create a song that highlights the work of the Breast Cancer Association and their campaign “Ja må hon leva” (“Yes, may she live”). Sweden’s Eurovision 1998 star took this title and worked it into a mid-tempo ballad. On social media, Johnson shared the inspiration for the song and how breast cancer has affected her friends:

“One day when I was having a hard time letting go of control, a co-worker invited me to relax and live a little…. she just said, “-live a little Jill!” It stuck with me and helped me reflect on the fragility of life. “Live a little” became the basic feeling I based on “Ja må hon leva”! Yes, and “for a hundred years”! I lost a friend to breast cancer and I have two dear friends living with breast cancer in this now. They are my great inspiration and anchor of reality. Thank you beloved women in the world for your inspiration and your super powers!”
