ITALIANS REACT to KONSTRAKTA - IN CORPORE SANO!!! Serbia Eurovision 2022 / Ludo&Cri 

The song is funny and strange at first glance, but in the end very serious and full of sadness. A lament over humanity that cannot control its life. This is a sarcastic cry to God for freedom.

A sick mind in a healthy body A sad soul in a healthy body A desperate mind in a healthy body A frightened mind in a healthy body So what do we do now?

she is not usual artist who enters eurovision song contest. her music is avantgarde, more like experiment, theater. her face is so serious because she is acting whole time not only singing. her pronunciation of words, facial expressions, gestures with body and hands are all part of performance. of course there is music and beat, chorus and their role, staging and layered lyrics. glad you liked it. I am sure you will be glued to tv screen during her live in Turin. Grazie mille

the reason you "vibe" to Konstrakta song is because the music is written in a heartbeat rhythm

Biti Zdrava🇷🇸 = Being healthy.Love and my 12 points from Paris 🇫🇷 to Konstanka

If you look it up the lyrics, this could be a Sanremo song and even a winner one. That's so artistic and authentic

To better understand, turn on subtitles/cc. It is actually pure artistic theater play in four acts packed in just 3 min. covered with a fantastically arranged musical matrix around a hypnotic rhythm, which perfectly follows the story told with a vocal that vibrates as part of the music (take attention for all details). Enough to be a masterpiece, even in the selection of the famous theater festival in Edinburgh. And the story is as follows Intro - EVERYTHING IS UPSIDE DOWN A modified Latin saying: a sick mind in a healthy body was read backwards. Act one - ROUTINE We waste our time following celebrities and other people's lives, and discuss about them, about nonsense through the social networks (what is the secret of healthy hair Megan Markl). It's going even deeper. This became normal behaviours and it is compared with health, healthy behaviour. So, expectation is that artress also must be part of this "normal behaviours" (MUST be healthy). Act two - LONELINESS We are now part of this routines, some system control our fundamental functions (heart ticking and breathing), we are alive, in virtual world and it's OK. But we are alone. No children, no friends, only dog. We are walking satisfied but without sense, with empty mind (counting steps, and that's all). Act three - COGNITION Knjižica in Serbian is not only social security, but it's also symbol of belonging to some system or organisation as a member What if I am not a member? If I'm out of system? We will lost our followers, others will not monitor us anymore (what was normal, healthy), nobody will "care" about us, or organize our life (what was normal, healthy), and artress become invisible when she is out of system. Act four - WAKING UP The absence of system influence artress see like a magic, becouse it means independence, so she CAN be healthy, with open mind, according to Latin saying "men sana in corpore sano" (healthy mind in healthy body). Can be, can be, can be. conclusion - WHAT'S ABOUT MIND? Everything is about body condition (corpore sano, corpore sano, corpus is sano - and body is healthy), but no one talks about the state of mind. So, she mentions those states of mind and ask: And what shell we do? And finally, the messages from the stage and the video. When health is mentioned, hand movements show that something is not normal. We need to be washed constantly, to be clean. Our mind same as our body. Either others will do it or we will do it ourselves. Again and again... So, regardless of the placement, its appearance is a victory for Serbia and the Eurovision Song Contest.

"Konstrakta" is constructing some sort of a subconscious message that conscious part of mind can not understand but subconscious can ! Goosebumps means you got the message but the message is hidden in your mind ! :)

Konstrakta 🇷🇸= IQ Test for Europe 🌻 Unfortunately most people in West Europe never learn in the school about how to analyse the poetry. The main thing is to try understanding the metaphorical meaning of the song 🎵 (this definitely isn't an usual, simple, standard "la-la-laaa" Eurovision song) 😎

She is so simple and charismatic. Ana - Konstrakta from Serbia. Ana is a Architekt and real artist. S!he exhibited at the famous Venice Biennale, which is the dream of all artists in the world.

Konstrakta Ana und Zemlja gruva! 12 Punkte aus Austria! Bravo!!!!!

Bravo Serbia! such a great song!

Such a smart and catchy song. I can't stop to sing it. Konstrakta hypnotize you with the beat of his voice. I love it.

Although you had 0 context, you were very receptive for a first-time contact. You should definitely film the reaction with ongoing lyrics! 👍🏼❤️🏆🥇

Lovely Serbia, go girl! I loveeeee this song sooo much😍♥️

Guys, you are great and so sweet! Greetings from Serbia! Ciao, ragazzi!

E veramente una canzone diversa dalle altre. A me piace , credo che non avra problemi a qualificarsi per la finale a Torino.

Navijamo za nasu Anu...do pobede ! Moze...moze....moze ...Boze zdravlja..."IMAM" knjizicu 😉👏👏👏👏😘😘😘

Pure art! Serbia Winner!

Вravooo Bravissima ❤️🤗👍 Gooo Konstrakta

You are right she is magnetic.....

At the beginning of the song she sings the Latin phrase backwards!! Did you know that 18 famous emperors were born in Serbia? :) The background shows 2 snakes moving upwards which represent the pharmacy logo. And I saw the covid virus mutating! I love this performance, it's as if it should be on radio.

All of you who are outside of Serbia and love this song, vote as much as you can for us, it will mean that as many votes as possible, a bigger place.

You two are great, love this,big thumbs up!

Adoro! È nei miei top three

The point is made in the last verse, which is sung in Latin ... for two years since the beginning of the coronary virus pandemic, the preservation of physical health (wash your hands) has been forced until the mental and mental health of people is spoken of ... "Weak mind in healthy a body, a sad soul in a healthy body, a desperate mind in a healthy body, a frightened mind in a healthy body ... AND WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO NOW? "

Bravoooo Serbia... Fantastic

Cute reaction ♥️ We never had something like that in Eurovision. At the end I was like: What the hell did I watched now😍 I love it.

...super reaction!...💟🌞🍀

Veni vidi vici.Konstrakta.😊💯💯💯🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸

Hi! I accidentally stumbled upon your video review and I was compelled to add a comment. First of all, both of you are very charming and it was entertaining to see your initial reactions. :) The song itself is a very peculiar one and was not expected to win because of its strangeness. Luckily, it won both the jury prize and the public vote and it quickly became a hit in Serbia and all the other countries that were once Yugoslavia. Konstrakta (her real name is Ana Djuric) is a serious artist and has been around for a while. She has been the voice of a band called Zemlja Groova (The Nation of Groove) for years. She studied architecture but opted to go into music after graduating because, as she says, music was her first love and she could express herself better through music. She doesn't have the tendency to go with the flow and her work always comes with a message and often has abstract qualities. The song itself has seemingly silly lyrics but once you dig deeper, you realize the song is actually a universal commentary - first, on our media-obsessed culture where perfection is the ideal image - and, on the other end, a commentary on a modern healthcare and social system that is not egalitarian in most places (that is to say, we live in a system where those with means always get ahead of the "normal" man, and in this case, the artist - who is always marginalized and has a hard time to make ends meet). In other words, we live in a perpetual cycle where we are constantly bombarded with images of perfection that we try to keep up with but the reality is that the average person (or artist) doesn't have the means to keep up with the pressure of always looking perfect and then we are disappointed and depressed because we can't reach that perfect image. This sentiment is reflect in the Latin chorus in the song: Mens infirma in corpore sano Animus tristis in corpore sano Mens desperata in corpore sano Mens conterrita in corpore sano I hope this explains it a bit :) Grazie!

Whoever understands ART will understand the messages ...✍🙌 The strength of the winning song is that it is not an imitation, but an original whose fuel is a special and unique artistic personality. It affected the audience who recognized it and gave their voice. Comparisons with Marina Abramović and her performances are completely wrong. In these comparisons, perhaps given with the best intentions, the idea of imitation is in fact unfounded. However, the original performance of the Handwashing Contract cannot be questioned by these comments. Washing hands with singing is a great choreographic solution for the title verse of the song - in a healthy body. The song certainly has the features of engaged art, which critically looks at the pandemic of the virus that kept the whole world in prison for two years in the form of satire. Hand washing symbolizes not only something that the health authorities have constantly recommended, but also alludes to hand washing from the responsibility of those who are guilty of this world scam. Although the text is insufficiently understood, and will not be understood by millions of viewers around the world, hand washing will speak for itself more than a thousand words. Unlike others, Konstrakta performed herself, not some imaginary superstar. The song was composed directly from the heart and is performed from the beginning to the end within the limits of the author's power. She does not strive to sing something she cannot, but within the limits of her power she gives the best she can. That must work, because it is true. As a person pressed by the collective fear that was deliberately propagated in the world for two years, Ana exclaimed - it was enough, what I wanted to say and I didn't. I trust her too. I am sure that, regardless of the malicious criticism that can be heard, this artist will win a high place in a major international competition (if held), and more than anyone so far will present Serbia as a country where people think for themselves. Hand washing as a symbol of cleansing from dirt will be well received not only as a kind of marking the end of the pandemic and all controversies, but also an invitation to start washing hands from all diseases of this world, which is not in the corner and which lacks Juvenile - we should pray for a healthy mind in a healthy body. In the end, I would not like to wash my hands out of Konstrakta's performance at Eurovision, and replace it with something else, on the advice of any so-called marketing team, because that would kill the very essence of the message, which will, regardless of hard-to-understand words I am sure that I will convey a clear message coming from Serbia to millions of viewers, which is that, in fact, without a healthy spirit, there is no healthy body. (Dragan Babović )☮

This is a very serious work of art that calls for deeper thinking. It doesn't matter how the competition goes. The Internet is already glowing, and that is the purpose of art. (Reaction) Hand sign: Visible - Invisible Opposing media propaganda. Black - White Positive - Negative A refrain is a kind of mantra that we need to listen to every day to make our mental health better. Sound is the cure and therapy for this gloomy society of today!

Haha, your reaction is the best I have seen, very sweet. You felt it even without understanding! You will have more goosebumps when you analyze the lyrics. Since other comments explained the meaning, I will only say that you should have a look at her work Triptih (3 Songs, this one is a part of it), and yes she is beautiful, even more without the red lipstick. Have a look at her with her band Zemlja gruva (Grooveland) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SSsFY3EtLcc.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jou_zJpUWlw.html

Io l'ho adorata!! Pezzo stupendo con testo davvero interessante. E la performance ricorda molto Marina Abramovich! Io tifo per lei!

I think she has a voice for jazz type of music.

Serbia loves you, too❤️🤷🏻‍♀️ Anna's a fantastic artist. The song is interpreted in many ways. IT'S NOT A CULT. It's art❤️

Umetnica mora biti zdrava, biti zdrava,biti zdrava bit bit bit 👏

She is great, so hypnotising. Beat is great...

This is pure art and tatal avantgarde. Lyrics may seem a bit silly at first, they are actually dead serious. There are so many layers to the song and a lot of space for different interpretations: The name of the song "In corpore sano" is in Latin and means "In a healthy body". It’s referring to the Latin saying "Mens sana in corpore sano" meaning "A healthy mind in a healthy body". - First: What is the secret to Meghan Markle's healthy hair? This is a reference to modern society's obsession with beauty! That's what beauty magazines do/they create insecurities about your hair, skin, weight, etc., and then advertise products that promise to change that. That's what the second line of the song is about "I think that the secret is in deep hydration" - Second: Konstrakta talks about how our skin and hair often signal some health issues, for example, liver and spleen problems. The reason she is thinking this is because she's worried about her own health, she can't visit a doctor for a check-up or get treatment because she doesn't have insurance, this is so important because independent artists in Serbia don't have health insurance. - Third: Then we hear her saying how an artist must be healthy, a reference to Marina Abramovic’s (internationally known Serbian performance artist) performances called “Art must be pretty, an artist must be pretty” where she sits for hours combing her hair while repeating that cause she realized people focused a lot on her looks and her hair being messy and prioritized that over her art, and the reason she needs to be healthy is that she can't afford to get treatment. - Fourth: the "Autonomic nervous system" part talks about how we don't need to control our own heartbeats. She describes how she walks her dog, on a beautiful summer day, her heart beats on its own, it doesn't need to get any better. She just puts her trust in her heart hoping it won't fail her (if it does fail her then that's it, the doctors won't help her and she made peace with that), and that's why she prays to God, "God give us health". - Fifth: She then says "I DON'T HAVE THE HEALTH INSURANCE!" (Even with "free" health insurance we are still paying a lot for medications, fees, etc. We are always paying insurance through salaries, for both employed and unemployed, and if you don't have "free" health insurance, you are paying way more, which is a situation with independent artists in Serbia.) - Sixth: Phrase "Boze zdravlja"/"God grant us health". This is a common saying, we use it all the time, and you will always hear people wishing other people good health (for their birthday, or really any holiday) because everything else (money, fame, love...) becomes meaningless if you are ill and in pain. She then says, the artist (she) is invisible, you can't see me, it's magic because she is invisible to health care, they won't treat her! - Seventh: Now, last part, it's basically the old Latin saying: Mens sana in corpore sano (A healthy mind in a healthy body), except that Konstrakta makes it clear that only the body is healthy, the soul inside is desperate, we are all obsessed with improving our health, we try to eat better, be more active, take all those expensive drugs and supplements, but what about our mind? Mens infirma in corpore sano - Weak mind in a healthy body Animus tristis in corpore sano - A sad soul in a healthy body Mens desperata in corpore sano - Desperate mind in a healthy body Mens conterrita in corpore sano - A frightened mind in a healthy body The endless chanting of the mantra about a healthy body is destroyed by enumerating the weaknesses of the mind and soul from which no health can be born. The final verse of the song "and what are we going to do now" is a jargon of common sense cold shower which was poured over the mass media propaganda about a healthy body without a healthy mind and soul, after making that clear she asks us - So what do we do now? Now about the handwashing: 1) She is dressed in white, she symbolizes the health care system (she reminds us of a nurse for example) and she is washing her hands. Why? Because of covid? NO! It is a metaphor about how health care workers need to "wash their hands off" meaning clear their conscience when they refuse to treat you because you don't have insurance. Just like when Pontius Pilate washed his hands before the crucifixion of Jesus - he tried to clear his conscience and make it clear that he wasn't the one who killed Jesus - it was the Law. In the same way, many people in the government or in positions are washing their hands off and can't help you because of the Law. 2) People standing behind her can be priests that pray for her health and/or are getting ready for her to die.

Deep voice and deep massage... She is coming to challenge the Western Mind... This is so deep massage... Its like,, Europe wake up we are on a cross road,, ❤️🎀🥂

Absolutely the best song 👌

such a cute reaction!

Serbia had two amazing songs ballad Zorja by Zorja and pop song Muškarčina by Sara Jo. Please check it out. Everyone thought they will win so Konstrakta came out of nowhere and surprised everyone. Serbs didn't want to send some predictable again so they thought it is time to send something original. I like your laugh.

You two are adorable!

Watch this song without lyrics is half of the joy. You need to understand the song.

Thank you guys, love from Serbia!🇷🇸❤️

🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸 idemooo do pobede

Mens sana in corpore sano (A sound mind in a sound body). The point artist is trying to make is that news media write and talk about health, supplements, diet, beauty, exercising, giving advice on how to monitor health by signs on ones face, hair and skin... Meghan Markle was mentioned because in media there was an article about most important issue for the survival of life on our planet, her hair. According to media, woman has to be beautiful, artist has to be beautiful and healthy otherwise can not succeed. And artist asks: What about "Mens sana" part? Media do not care about state of mind, peoples spirit, mental health. To the contrary. Fake news, all sorts of lies (Serbians are especially sensitive because they were and still are victims of media warfare for over three decades) are there to make us total idiots, ignorant about what really is happening around us, spreading belief that nuclear war can be won or that Putin is going to back down if enough pressure he is under, unaware of how close we are of destroying our home, Earth. Read lyrics carefully several times, and pay attention to lyrics at the end: "A sick mind in a healthy body A sad soul in a healthy body A desperate mind in a healthy body A terrified mind in a healthy body" Celebrities appear beautiful, healthy and they are successful. Than, unexpectedly, they commit a suicide. Whitney Houston, Robin Williams, Anthony Bourdain... Whole stage is a metaphor. She represents health system which washes hands (denies responsibility). Pontius Pilate washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person (Jesus). He was washing his hands of the responsibility. "Metallic voices" and robotic movements with hands represent estrangement - dehumanization. During performance there's no emotion on her face. She is like robot. She walks her dog. That is another sign of estrangement, proof that our civilization is on verge of extinction. It is sad that dog became man's "best friend". I remember times (I am 67) when my best friends walked on two legs (and without leash - covid pass or passport). Music is, also, descriptive. After "I do not have health insurance" there is GP and rhythm (heart beat) stops (heart sinks "into her feet") there is a "cuckoo" musical effect symbolising psychotic episode - travel to "parallel - alternative world", something like "alternative truth" as Donald Trump said. This is the moment when she realizes: "How will they be able to keep track of me"? Chorus sings: "In the name of health". Brilliant. Great construct, Konstrakta. Congratulations. At the end there is sequence of semi-tone steps upward in music called "tonal jump" used to elevate tension towards climax: "So, now what"? Which I understood as "We are all nuts". But most have never been diagnosed. Very well done.

The songbis Masterpiece!

And the winner of Eurovision 2022 is KONSTRAKTA !!!!!! Greetings from Serbia !!!! You are very good guys !!!🧡💛💚💙

Great song

Adoro. Dalle reazioni che ho visto, la gente rimane spiazzata. Se non dovesse qualificarsi per la finale soffrirei troppo.

I love that everyone in the beginning of reaction is like "wtf is happening here", and after few minutes also they: "BITI ZDRAVA, BITI ZDRAVA, BITI ZDRAVA, BITI BITI BITI"😅

Fun fact: the italian word "Ciao" is also used in Serbia and has the same meaning 😁

btw the song is just a part of trilogy TRIPTIH... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cfU63CHL4wo.html

Your association with songs for children in beat and clapping is interesting, there is so much in this "song", after hundreds of times watching and listening to it I still find new symbols and meanings, and still exploring ...

There is no doubt that this song is a masterpiece ...

Women from Balkan have deep voices.

I love the guy‘s laugh. Hahaha. Makes me smile.

PROPER ENGLISH TRANSLATION Konstrakta - In a Healthy Body I wonder what's the secret behind Meghan Markle's healthy hair? I wonder what's the secret? I wonder what's the secret behind Meghan Markle's healthy hair? I wonder what's the secret? (I wonder what's the secret?) I think that Deep hydration is what it is They say that One's skin and hair show everything clearly For example, dark circles around the eyes Could indicate liver problems Blemishes around the lips, enlarged spleen perhaps? Enlarged spleen is not good, it's not pretty And the artist, she needs to be healthy Be healthy, be healthy, be healthy B-b-b be healthy Be healthy, be healthy, be healthy She must be, she must be, she must be We're incredibly lucky That there's such a thing as the autonomic nervous system I don't need to control my own heart beats The heart beats, the heart beats on its own Bright colors of a summer day My skirts are on my body, My skirts, the dog and I The two of us are talking a walk We're counting the steps The skirt goes around my leg We are taking a walk, and that's it And it doesn't need to get any better than this The heart beats on its own I put my trust in it Let it beat on its own I put my trust in it Let it beat, let me breathe God, give me health God, give me health God, give me health (God, give me health) I don't have health insurance* How will they be able to keep track of me? (In the name of health) To care for me? (In the name of health) The artist, she is invisible (In the name of health) You don't see me, it's magic (In the name of health) The artist, she can be healthy Be healthy, be healthy, be healthy B-b-b be healthy Be healthy, be healthy, be healthy She can be, she can be, she can be In a healthy body, in a healthy body In a healthy body, in a healthy body In a healthy body, in a healthy body The body is healthy So now what? A sick mind in a healthy body A sad soul in a healthy body A desperate mind in a healthy body A terrified mind in a healthy body So now what? * Literal translation: "I don't have the little book." Little book is referred to "little health book" ("zdravstvena knjižica" in Serbian), a document issued to people who have statutory health insurance in Serbia. Today, this document is in plastic card form, but in the past, the document was issued on a piece of very thick paper which would then fold in two places to resemble a small book that can be opened. Even though today it takes the card form, it is still officially called and referred to as a "little health book".

Slatki simpatični i smešni ste... Hvala👍🏻🥰

KONSTRAKTA IS THE BEST

Legend good good

Yup, yup - go for lyrics, ofc, cc, but - c'mon: it's pure performance art + there's lyrics everyone's curious about and analysing, like even those who skipped literature classes + there's that "heart-beat" beat, clapping while chanting "bitibitibiti" - it's already huge among clubbing folks.. Original, smart, artistic and - amazing lyrics..

4:31 Bravo!!!

❤️❤️❤️

Here's the translation: What could be the secret of Meghan Markle’s healthy hair? What could it be? What could be the secret of Meghan Markle’s healthy hair? What could it be? What could it be? I think it’s all about the deep hydration They say our skin and hair show it all For example - Deep undereye circles could signal liver troubles The pesky spots around the lips point to an enlarged spleen enlarged spleen That’s not a good spleen, not a very pretty spleen And the artist must be healthy: To be healthy To be healthy To be healthy To be, to be, to be To be healthy To be healthy To be healthy must be, must be, must be How lucky, the existence of the autonomic nervous system No need to control the heart beats The heart beats The heart beats, alone A summer’s day, the colours bright, the skirts of mine On my body My dog and I We walk Just the two of us, counting steps The skirt steps around my leg We are walking And that is all! And it does not have to get better! the heart beats by itself! I surrender my trust, let it beat by itself! I surrender my trust, let it beat! let me breathe! God grant us health, grant us health, grant us health! God grant us health, since there’s no Medical insurance for me Now how will they follow me? All in the name of health How will they care for me? All in the name of health The artist is invisible All in the name of health You can’t see me, it’s magical All in the name of health The artist could be healthy: Be healthy Be healthy Be healthy be, be, be Be healthy, Be healthy, Be healthy, could be, could be, could be In corpore sano, in corpore sano In corpore sano, in corpore sano In corpore sano, in corpore sano Corpus is sanum, and what now?! Mens infirma in corpore sano Animus tristis in corpore sano Mens desperata in corpore sano Men conterrita in corpore sano NOW WHAT SHALL WE DO?

Ragazzi! Guardate questo video! Tutto quello che volete sapere su questa canzone per capire di cosa sta cantando: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RvSembKwOJk.html

The song is very artistic and multilayered with many messages both visual and lyrical. Serbia is usually connected with good-looking male and/or female performers and either ethno-pop or dance songs. This is the very first time since Zeljko and Marija that Serbia sent very artistic song. And thats cool

The first verse is Latin backwards. It is believed when pronounced it can raise the dead. You have to love this song. It has so many layers.

that laugh @ 1:45 should have its own meme hahahahahahaha

HIGH LEVEL..SONG..

Ludo BTW in Serbian means crazy :)

Im from dserbia and.... Well the best way i can describe it is if a doctor started singing lol

I have to point this out again and again: the hypnotizing female backing vocals remind me of shamanic chants and their male counterparts sound more like gregorian chants. These contribute to the overall meaning of the song: a female artist without health insurance is left on her own to take care of herself. The only thing she can do is pray to God to give her health ("Bože zdravlja!") or rely on rituals such as obsessive handwashing etc. Or just trust her own heart that keeps beating without any help from her. Sadly, that is the most she can ask for or get from "the system": a beating heart. She might be ill but she is still alive. What else can be more important than that? What an irony. And this is just one layer of the song.

There are lyrics , you forgot to turn on titles 😃

Vredjate za sve pare...

Konstrakta's song is part two out of three that form a piece called "Triptih". Her performance has nothing to do with Megan Markle, hydration, politics or covid, it's performance art that is intelligent, quirky and constructed from top to bottom to perfection. It's not weird nor funny, it's art. It's created to make people stop and think about life for a second, it's there to provoke, not to soothe or kill time. In those three songs she's describing a life of grown woman in Serbia, and likely in this World. First part "Noble" is talking about society labels as "be emancipated", "speak foreign language", "know peculiar information about places you never visited" where the chorus is describing the sad reality that she is all alone, looking at the mirror, crying and thinking about a headline in magazine "Sharon Stone does not take botox" meaning, oh she must be as ordinary as me - a masterpiece song. Second part "In corpore sano" describes a woman after reading a woman magazine with a clickbait title "What's the secret of random celebrity perfect health?" (in this case she chose Megan Markle, but any name works). Very often in those magazines you "find out" that some skin imperfection might be there due to poor health of some of your internal organs, i.e spleen, gut or liver. Verse "enlarged spleen is not good, not pretty" is trying to say "not only I may be sick, I am ugly too!" and it really describes a transition young woman go through in early middle age (Konstrakta is 43, mother of two), when beauty standard obsession is getting substituted by health obsession. So she frantically and compulsively starts singing "be healthy, be healthy, be healthy ..." and song just gets better, she becomes grateful for autonomic nervous system and how body takes care of itself, but paranoia kicks again "be healthy, be healthy, be healthy", she prays to God, even that is not enough. Than a sudden stop in rhythm where she is faced with possibility that she might stop belonging to the system (i.e not have public health insurance), how will she be taken care of? Song finale is self - revelation where Latin proverb is twisted to say that although your body will end up healthy after all paranoia, your mind will become sad, sick, desperate and frightened. This song resonates with every single woman and man in Serbia in their 40s because that is exactly how life looks at that age. It's all about being healthy at any cost, while completely neglecting mental health. It's sad that subtitles are not available on the Eurosong, because this song has nothing to do with politics, nothing to do with Megan Markle (apart as critique to mass media), and absolutely nothing to do with covid situation - it's a universal, intelligently packed recap of middle age life. Third part "Mekano" which translates as "Soft", although better translation would be "Limp", talks about everyday life and the way people live in their 40s. You work, you eat, you repeat same patterns day to day, while trying to belong to "intellectual elite" by discussing about neoliberalism, being individual and original, while in truth you are just dying out in your "comfort zone". Chorus "mekano, nek je prokleto" translates "soft should be cursed" meaning "curse the comfort zone", and this song is insanely strong due to its melody, it sounds soothing and like something you'd listen to fall asleep. This perfectly describes someone stuck in the comfort zone, you are stuck, you know you are stuck, you curse it, but your voice is still numbed, slowed and soothing. Exactly how comfort zone and depression feel like.

I'm Serbian, so the thing is that the translation of the words doesn't do it justice. She's using sarcasm as well. If you'd understand the lyrics you'd love her even more. This is actually a musical installation. In her own words, the lyrics carry the most weight here, but they do tie closely to the stage performance. She starts by poking fun at the superficiality of the media today, ("the secret of Megan Markle's hair", an actual headline), condoning "physical beauty above all else", when there are obviously more pressing health issues to deal with at present. ("problem" word addresses this) Then, she shows the irony of covid and the horrible consequences of the media frenzy on human mental health. In the 'latin' part of lyrics, the little word game with the serbian word "is" says BUT "corpore" IS "sano"- But the body IS healthy..other things aren't (desperate mind, sad soul). Then talking about attempts to control people through health passes, saying "And I don't even have the health insurance, so how are they going to track me in the name of health. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out, tracking people and all (newly invented passes, anyone?). Washing hands is obviously an allegory to the two-year covid period, duh!, but it can have an implied meaning of people washing hands off the sick people..or governments washing hands off dealing with the pressing issues now, like mental health, broken spirits, widespread depression, fear, and sadness. "So, what now?" is actually a provoking question saying so, yeah, something needs to be done about this. This is art, on so many levels!. Words "Boze zdravlja," are a national saying and a prayer meaning "God, just give us health" - actually here confirming that our health comes from God and from ourselves (not WHO lol).
