It's not just about artists, it's about people who don't have basic health insurance, and bacis freedom, all over the world. The song is dedicated to all people in the world !!! The song is soo good and enjoy!!! 🤚🤚🤚
The song is the anthem of all the people who have been fighting against the pharmaco - eugenics mafia - the corrupt system of global health policy for the past two years. 💙💙💙 The song is a satire on the account of the state health system, but also on the account of the entire social view of health. The most important part of the song is when he says - "I don't have a booklet, and how can they follow me in the name of" health ". This verse describes the state's false concern for the health of the population, and we have been bombarded with this false concern for the past two years. Constant hand washing during the performance is a satirical mockery of the preventive recommendations of health "experts" whom we will forever remember from 2020. 💙💙💙
Also, last strophe, which is in Latin, talks that our body could be healthy but at the same time we could have some other problems like mental health problems and things like that. So this song has so many messages, so many different layers. Like this part is maybe in Latin because a lot of people don’t understand medical diagnosis at Latin and also a lot of people don’t understand how important mental health is. Great song, very artistic (like some sort of performance)
@@funnyorsomething5619 i think the song is open to be interpreted many ways( that is why it is so good), one of her band members died, and had no health insurance.
I don't care what people say! THIS IS PURE ART.... Love from Croatia 🇷🇸❤🇭🇷 Only people who don't understand the point... would make fun of this. Latin part is very important!
I hated it in the first listening. Then I read the lyrics, then I heard it a couple of times and now I'm at her feet. So unique, out of the box, and the song is catchy in a veeeeery weird way. I think her stoic face is totally iconic and I respect what she's saying! GOOD CHOICE, SERBIA!
my winner so far, this song has the best lyrics so far, the performance it's hypnotizing and the overall package it's excellent, congrats Serbia from Spain 🇷🇸🤝🇪🇦
As a Serbian, reading all of these comments makes my heart sing. I am so glad that so many people who don't understand our language completely understand the message behind Konstrakta's song and performance.
This performance is critique of modern society obsessed with the beauty and health of the body, while the mind and soul suffer. The song has multiple layers. Its very artistic.
maybe bc you NEED al healthy body to have a healthy mind. I thought the covid pandemic made people aware of that, of the fact that health is the most important thing, but apparently it didn't
We in Serbia are sooo impressed with her. Actually obsessed is the right word ☺️☺️☺️☺️ our new queen, well deserved 🙌👏 UMETNICA mora biti zdrava, biti zdrava... Let's go Konstrakta 🇷🇸❤️🇷🇸❤️
Though it didn't help Italy... Italy had that year a powerful song, with a incredible message, it was my first choice, my favourite, but it didn't win.
The last “I sta cemo sad” means: “And what are we going to do now?” She is an architect by proffession. Architects are known to be avantguard, ahead of time, multicreative, multifaceted individuals, which can be seen in the whole performance. Her lyrics are what comes to mind, as if she says what she thinks at the moment, without creative polish. However, in Serbian context, this is extremely creative and original, something never heard and seen.
Before she says "i sta cemo sad" the chorus is saying in latin: "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? .. We all know what happens to the body when the mind is sick :)
No it's not. Serbia has quite big underground music and art scene in general, and a good audience for it. It's just not mainstream due to devastating cultural policies of our government and mainstream media that promote and encourage trash.
Serbian song is for all of us.Opens so many important questions while looking so silly but it is not at all. Dont have healthy body and lose your healthy and pure soul in that process. Free health care for everyone. Hope non serbian speakers realise meaning.
"Washing hands" from something or someone is phrase in Serbian which means that one do not accept responsibility or guilt for something or someone. Greetings from Serbia
IN CORPORE SANO is so complex it is difficult to even choose some of the points Konstrakta made in her song and performance... well noted - it also leaves a lot of space for viewers´ to develop their own story... visually - strong references to Marina Abramovich, washing hands - hygiene, obsession with cleanliness, obsession with our physical health and appearance and completely ignoring mental. Lyrics are sometimes almost cynical (obsession with celebrities and their looks), sometimes deeply emotional (when she speaks of her long walks with her dog when she feels free and liberated), but definitely delivering a strong message. The line "UMETNICA MORA BITI ZDRAVA" (The artist must be healthy) is another strong reference to afore mentioned Marina Abramovich (Art must be Beautiful, The Artist must be Beautiful), but on a social critique level it is a reference to the struggles of artists to survive without steady income and support of the system (which is a global phenomenon, but also an ongoing issue in Serbia). The final point are the lyrics at the very end of the song performed in Latin: "Mens infirma in corpore sano, Animus tristis in corpore sano, Mens desperata in corpore sano, Mens conterrita in corpore sano" (Weak mind in a healthy body, aching soul in a healthy body, desperate mind in a healthy body, terrified mind in a healthy body) bringing the question of the mental health (especially in these troubled timed)... and finally, maybe unintentionally, current tragedy of war and how we all symbolically "wash our hands of responsibility"... Anyhow, CORPORE SANO is above all an original and unusual choice for Eurovision, but it is also very serious and reflective... not to everyone´s taste, of course, but, as Latins would say "De gustibus non est disputandum!" :) ... Serbia choose a smart song and a very talented and intelligent performer... KONSTRAKTA is well known and highly regarded here! This is what would probably happen if Marina A. and Bjork had a baby! :D 100000 hugs from Serbia!!!
This is performance art. I am officially obsessed. 😍👏👏 The song is about artists being invisible in the health system in Serbia. Being an independent artist it affects her access to public health services and so private health insurance is expensive. In corpore sano means a healthy body in latin. It refers to the need for artists to have healthy bodies in order to work. Towards the end of the song she refers to mental health saying that a depressed mind can live in a healthy body, referring to our obsession with appearance and taboo surrounding mental health issues,especially within health systems. Finally, the constant washing of hands may be a reference to governments placing responsibility on the public during covid to constantly wash their hands to distract us from crumbling and inadequate health systems worldwide and also could be an homage to marina abramovic who combed her constantly during a performance art piece whilst saying art is beautiful. This entry is totally captivating, profound, performative and has a great hook to keep you gripped. We'll done Serbia.
no it doesn't talk about health directly as narrative, but rather as metaphor! It's a HUGE artistic protest against brain drain, importance of keeping your sense healthy and not believe everything you hear, see, talk! Healthy common sense is part of all of us, just has to keep it straight. GREAT HUMAN MESSAGE IN THIS MASTER PIECE!
In Corpore Sano is a really different, authentic and original entry i like how it has a message that has to be conveyed about today’s medical issues! Go Konstrakta!🍀
@@Wiwibloggs Pontius Pilate knew what he was doing when he said he was washing his hands of Jesus ’blood after the crowd forced him to make a difficult decision and sentence Jesus to death by crucifixion. Namely, scientists from the University of Michigan claim that people who wash their hands well before making a difficult decision actually ease their conscience and make the decision easier, as if they take the blame off themselves for the consequences their decision will cause.
Honestly it's a really strange song and I absolutely love it. It's so intriguing and it pulls me in to want to hear more and understand it more. For me it really captured the fear I had with the whole pandemic situation. I also love how "Bože zdravlja"(God give me health basically) almost sounds like a mantra and it's all very meditative.
This is an avangarda and absolutely music masterpiece.....Art of philosophy conducted by music and words .... it's is a criticism of society and position of artist in society...I am so glad that this kind of artists still exist in world particularly in my country...my the best regards for you
As Serbian, I have to say that we are tired of songs without meaning, without great lyrics and meanings, point. For e.g. Loco loco or the song of Sara Jo have not got great lyrics and meaning. We are tired of pop diva without points. Konstrakta is a very smart woman, her lyrics are art!
joj dvolinostii bože, prošle godine ste svi bili u hurricane, obožavali, svi preponosni, nikad bolje predstavnike nismo imali, bla bla.. a sad ovako serete, ne znate ni sami šta hoćete, užas
@@abstractionart3736 ljudi zaboravljaju da smo samo mi (region i dijaspora) glasali za loco loco. Ako bude poslednja ok! Bitno je da nam se svidja, a svidja nam se
@@ksica Da. Pa i da posaljemo najbolju pesmu na svetu, necemo pobediti zbog situacije sa Rusijom i Ukrajinom. Umetnost treba da kritikuje stvarnost, da menja svet, a to Konstrakta svojom pesmom cini. Genijalan tekst.
Listen to the the rhythm ! ! ! You will hear the heartbeat in it. Bum-bum bum-bum... I'm so glad that you have a positive reaction and curiosity to learn more about this song and from it. This is pure conceptional art. Happy to see her representing my country.
This song after the semifinals suddenly became a hit, entered yt trending as the first and convincingly beat all the favorites in the finals. The artist must be healthy, she says the song and I say the artist sold us the story.
I didn’t know if I liked this song to start with but this morning at 6:30am I woke with the lyrics “biti zdrava, biti biti biti biti zdrava” in my head, so now I know I love it! Well done Serbia 🇷🇸 🇲🇰 🇦🇺
The song has many layers. The Megan Merkle part is the headline that was in Serbia in 2020, and she mentions it as something that people value has become a lot more superficial. She then directs it to the artist's situation, as they would be considered unemployed in Serbia in order to get healthcare. By the way, the part of with their bandmate is untrue. She has denied that meaning behind the song. As a Serb, I am very proud to be represented by Konstrakta, no matter the results in ESC! She literally won us over in two days and I am happy to see us sending something new to ESC. ❤
This was one of my favorite songs of the season from first listen. Thrilled that it won. What a triumph! I was listening to it every day, loving the soundscape, feeling that it had meaning but not yet understanding the words. When I read the lyrics.... wow... this song has impact!
This art was not even made to be voted for - it was made to become an anthem. I am not sure how much E fans can understand, the moment in which Serbia finds itself, but also the position of artists in our country. This woman did not even come to compete, but to convey the message, but the people found themselves, and fortunately there were people in the jury, except for the singer, who recognized the value. Pure art!
I am so happy you guys appreciated this peace of art. It's hard to expect that wide audience will like it but when it comes to the two of you it's precious seeing your openness, curiosity and they way you share it with the ESC fans. Stay awesome 💛
At first this song gives me the energy of when the teacher says you have to be silent and you can't stop laughing but towards the end I actually started vibing with the song. If this advances to the final, it will definitely be one of the most tweeted about by the casual fan (especially from UK) regardless of Serbia's result.
I love the most about this song, that you can understand it in sooo many ways. There is not only one right interpretation. It makes you wondering, thinking - and honestly: ISN'T EXACTLY THAT THE PURPOSE OF ART? 🙂🙂
What is Konstrakta? This is what she replied in the interview "Ah. I already forgot. On the one hand, I counted a lot of syllables, verses and rules of some new words, constructed something that was interesting to me. I don't do that anymore. On the other hand, at that time I was studying architecture and the subject of Art History, which was taught by Professor Šuvaković, talked about constructs, primarily social ones. So I saw the whole world and all the phenomena as a construct. Both myself and the song. There is no mystery" She is a very cool, educated, intelligent and deep person. She just expressed herself in a form of pure art and got surprised so many people loved it!
At the end she does not say "Mossad". She says: "I šta ćemo sad?", meaning: "And what are we going to do now?". It is a clear message and invitation for change, for a better world. This song is much better in Serbian as it is. If it would be translated in English it would not be so attractive. For example, she says: "Nemam knjižicu". It is a whole topic behind it and simple translation would not have any sense.
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".
This song is about so many things I cannot evem put them all here. She is singing about society being obsessed about always looking perfect and always having to follow the latest trends (what is the secret behind Megan Markle's healthy hair), as someone said she is also using a female as an example because women are those who are always expected to look perfect all the time. Double standards at its best. She says "an artist has to be healthy", that is also why she is washing her hands in an OCD manner (because of the pandemic), she has no health insurance so she has to be healthy otherwise she won't get treated ("how will they monitor me, how will they care for me" ), kinda raises an issue of the health care system in Serbia, and also in many other countries. Also the hand washing is kind of a mockery of what we are doing right now trying to avoid the virus. She says that she "gives trust" in her heart to keep beating, and in an interview explains this saying that not everything health related is in our hands, we cannot fully control if we're healthy or not so sometimes we should just live and enjoy small moments in life (the part where she sings about her walking her dog and enjoying a summer day). The last part in Latin means In a healthy body, sad soul, In a healthy body desperate mind, In a healthy body frightened mind. This is about how we were oh-so focused on our physical health during the pandemic, and we completely forgot about our mental health, it doesn't even necesseraly have to do with pandemic, people usually tend to care less about their mental health, which is equally as important. Hope this helps 💜
The uniqueness of this song makes it a really big contender for the final. I’ve seen a few particular songs win Eurovision before. This could be one of them!
...in fact, this is brilliant work of art, with deep meaning, clear message, perfect, feminine sarcasm and great rhythm. And I especially liked her striking calmness, as well as the simple scenography. Pure art...
She is so iconic, she doesn't even need to get up!!!!This is unique and a message to whole world... who is watching us, are we really free.. is there any freedom .. do we have the right to think by our own head...IS THE RIGHT TO BE HEALTHY GUARANTEED TO EVERYONE AS SOVEREIGN HUMAN RIGHT! Performance and song ttl ICONIC!!... oh my God, song with so many layers.. she just changed concept Of Eurovision... and colours blue yellow flag.. oh my God
I can't believe how everyone misses the handwashing moment, while handwashing, distance-keeping, mask-wearing have been the recommendations we have been bombarded with for the past two years? The entire song talks about the obsession with the body and physical health ("What is the secret of Megan Markle's healthy hair?" - This is an example of many, many similar titles in women's magazines, along with the all reels, vlogs, blogs...morning routines, evening routines, what I eat in a day, exercises for ____, detox, etc.) while the mental health of the population is deteriorating. COVID pandemic also exacerbated this, emphasizing physical health and safety while no one had any strategies to help people cope with the psychological side of it. And we know the load it brought onto our mental health.
Very good comment and real post virus issue all around the World. Increase of mental health issues,and no concern for people who had those kind of issues during pandemic. This song is raising awareness of taking care not only about body but spirit too .
This is more a performance than a song. Something which you would pay to go to visit and witness rather than to hear on the radio. Unusual for Eurovision, but that is why it stands out 😉
This is a masterpiece! Its art! Its depth! And a good beat! So many important messages hidden all over! One of the messages is not to be superficial… Text, act, Latin with Serbian, vibe, visual stage performance by washing hands, which may be interpretated as avoiding and skipping responsibility in a deeper conection!!! ITS JUST SOMETHING ELSE!!! A gift to modern world!!!💖Serbia was responsible for the creation of the modern world by giving the world brilliant minds, and one of them ONLY invented electricity! Today pointing out the problema of the modern world and just giving a gift with best wishes, to become better individuals, and love ourselves and take care of each other!!! GO SERBIA, GO WORLD! HVALA!!!💖
3:21 "I don't have social insurance!" Deep lyrics! Deep message! "Artist don't have medical insurance, so it "must" be healthy!" Must?! We are just "washing" our hands off each other, while people still dying somewhere... (while we wear pink glasses?) In what world do we live? This song is a high art satiric masterpiece!
