Let 3 - Mama ŠČ! - Eurovision 2023 Croatia REACTION 

from Ukraine with love 🇺🇦❤🇭🇷 😊

Trolling dictators has never been so popular and relevant🔥 12 points from Ukraine🇺🇦💙

Tractor is a reference to Lukashenko's birthday present to Putin. In the song Putin is described as a "vile little psychopath", the vocalist represents Stalin, and the guy with rockets has NINLE on his forhead (wordplay:Nin-Le=Lenin) and is dressed in monk's outfit like Rasputin. Mama ŠČ is a metaphor for Mother Russia (ŠČ is a letter unique to russian alphabet), and crocodile is a drug popular in Russia that makes people act like zombies. Guys are dressed in military uniforms but in pink and bright colors and are wearing dresses bcs Putin is homophobic. The meaning of the lyrics is kinda obvious now: "Mama bought a tractor" "Mama (meaning Russia) loved a moron (meaning Putin)" "That little psychopath (W-w-war, war) Little, vicious psychopath (W-w-war, war) Crocodile psychopath (W-w-war, war) Mama, I'm going to war" The whole thing is trolling Putin level 10000000. Also, I would bring your attention to the fact that band members are naked in the end, with roses sticking out of their rear parts ;) Oh yes, and fuck Putin.

From Prague. Love Croatia 🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷

I'm from Croatia i mean they are legends here and i didn't expect anything less from them , almost pissed my pants last night

They were always original and unique 😂 ŠČ! for the win 🚜🚜🚜

Epidemic song....i cant stop listening and singing and watching this art...extraordinary

I love your smile keep it up, greetings from Croatia❤️🇭🇷 ŠČ će biti hit ove godine💯

Drago mi je da ti se pjesma svidjela. S obzirom da sva potencijalna značenja nije moguće shvatiti bez konteksta i poznavanja hrvatskog jezika evo male pomoći svima koje ova pjesma intrigira. Neke metafore su prilično jasne ali su neke i vrlo dvosmislene pa krenimo. Stih "Mama kupila traktora" referira se na Putinovo kupovanje Bjelorusije (predsjednik Lukasenko je Putinu za sedamdeseti rođendan poklonio traktor). Mama je jasna metafora Rusije. Značenje ŠČ je jako zanimljivo,s jedne strane je to staro slovo iz ruskog alfabeta (neki su pisali da je najstarije, ne bi znala jer ne znam ruski) ali s druge strane ta kombinacija slova ima jasno numeričko metaforičko značenje: Š je u hrvatskoj abecedi 25. slovo abecede (hrvatska abeceda ima ukupno 30 slova) a slovo Č je 4. Zbroj 25 i 4 je 29 a u hrvatskoj abecedi je na 29. mjestu slovo Z. Mama ŠČ je ustvari suvremena Rusija (Majka) Z. Trananina je stih jedne hrvatske uspavanke za djecu,nema posebno značenje ali u ovom kontekstu s Armagedonom ima funkciju antiteze (iz dječje uspavanosti Rusija ide u Armagedon). Nona je referenca na baku (nona je hrvatski italijanizam za baku koji se koristi dosta na jadranskoj obali, Let3 su iz grada Rijeke). Armagedon nona može biti sovjetsko nuklearno nasljeđe današnje Rusije. Idemo dalje, iz uspavanke idemo u ratni kaos uz zvuk traktora😂). Sve dosad je prilično jasno ali u sljedećim stihovima postaje vrlo hermetično i nude se različita značenja. Stih "Mali podli psihopat" je jasna referenca na Putina zbog niskog rasta ali stih "Krokodilski psihopat" aludira s jedne strane na životinjski svijet,na reptile a s druge na zelenu boju. Zanimljivo je da prezime Zelenski na hrvatskom jeziku znači zeleni jer u sebi sadrži referencu na zelenu boju- ZELENski. Reptili/David Icke su isto trag pa ko voli nek izvoli😂 Što se tiče kostima, jasna je kritika i staljinizma i nacizma (glavni vokal ima vojnički look i brkove kao i Hitler i Staljin) a ludi redovnik u crnom je očita referenca na Raspućina (metafora ruskog misticizma i mesijanstva) kojem na čelu piše obrmuto Lenin (na hrvatskom se piše Lenjin sa Lj). U svakom slučaju,kako god interpretirali pjesmu (samo kao satiru ruskog Z imperijalizma i diktatorskog režima ili kao kritiku svih totalitarnih ideologija (uključujući i onu koja stoji iza AZOV-a) jedno je kristalno jasno, LET3 su ih sve poslali kvragu😂. S ružama u guzi🌹❤️

Hi from Croatia, here we love them, our national treasures.

Stop the war in the whole world! Bravo LET 3 !!! ŠČ

This song is masterful. It's an entire rock opera packed into three minutes. Flight three has been working on that project for several years (ŠĆ project). The whole project also has a deep message, and it comes out like a rose from a donkey. Some protested the war by placing flowers in tank barrels. They are just having a good time and putting a thorny rose in a tube. My opinion is that all the dictators of this world are prosecuted like this. So, in a figurative sense, they are saying that they have had enough of being fucked in the ass. In Croatia, they have the status of Monty Python, where they have been presenting their performances for 35 years. I hope the whole world will fully understand this anti-war mastery that they managed to summarize in three minutes. This is their best performance, where they summed up everything from the past they were working on. This work shows that they are at the peak of their career. They have always been and remain unique, and I hope they will remain so. Be sure to check out the RU-vidrs and their reactions because I've been laughing for two days at the expression of surprised faces that always end up laughing. No song in the history of the Eurovision Song Contest and beyond has produced so many shocked facial expressions and surprised laughter. So for me, with this masterpiece, they are the main candidates to win Eurovision this year. To make it easier to understand, watch the television or internet broadcast from yesterday's world-famous Rijeka carnival. If you look at the carnival, then everything will be much clearer.

I am addicted by Let 3 😂😂 I am addicted by positive energy.. ♥️♥️ ..... Love your smile as well 😂😂

Let 3 group are Legends ,they are true artists, amizing and i grew up singing all their unique songs 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 Nobody better to present Croatia

Don't worry if you're confused. It is normal. People want a commercial song with shallow lyrics and easily digestible music for wide audiences. This is not that kind of thing. This is not what people want to hear but what people need to hear. This is an artistic masterpiece. This is an opera (think Bohemian Rhapsody melos). It doesn't try to appeal to the to masses, it is painting you a picture, it is conveying a message. It talks about a war, that's why it's messy but beautifully orchestrated. Its almost permanent crescendo conveys what the insanity and reality of war is while its lyrics speak about the absurdity of it. The absurdity and irony is also apparent in the costumes and choreography which immediately tells you that we've already been trough this. The world already knows this, but we're still going or are in another one as if we haven't learnt anything from the history. Also the costume he wears is supposed to show you the real face of the person capable of starting a war. It is showing how that psychopath looks if we could see his psyche and his mind like we can see his nice Italian suit when we look at him. It's an eyeopening song that is just point out the obvious. And they are not in it to win, I personally think they just want to prove the absurdity of todays humanity because if they loose which they said they will it means people can't see the obvious even when you point it out clearly, and it shows why we are at the place we are today and even today we can't understand the obvious so we can expect the same tragic things in the future. A nicely groomed psychopath commanding everyone to go to war and the people (the audience) not understanding what he is and blindly following.

This song has so much meaning and knowing this guy's, they are from my city, Rijeka. Knowing they got this far, always extra, always expressing themselves!!! Thank you! I loved your video!!

The best! We have winner ESC 2023!

At first, not easy to decither but once decithered, it's clear what's all about. An anti-war song, anti-Putin, anti-dictatorship, for freedom and free choice of sexual behaviour, almost anarchistic. Also full of symbols and citations: Hitlers mustache from Charlie Chaplins Great dictator, Queens bohemian rhapsody, Rasputin with nuke rockets in monk costume to destroy the world with "Lenjin" written on his cap and much more symbolisms. A masterpiece within 3 minutes.

Let 3 we love you!Amazing as allways!!!GO CROATIA!!!!

oh, yeah. They have been doing this for almost 40 years now. This is one of their more tame and normal performances.

Great song croatia 🇭🇷 on the top

💡fun facts: 💃Let 3 has been on Croatian music stage for over 30 years, they are known for making provoking, satirical songs based on political events 🚜They actually arrived to Dora music contest on tractor ✏️ŠČ is the oldest letter of Croatian's Glagolitic script originated in 9th century

You can laugh man. Just laugh!! It's what's all about. The goal of the song is to make people laugh and have fun. Try to understand the message behind the song, and just enjoy it.

This isn't a political song. It is a song about the minds of all manipulators past, present and future.

Actually, in few words, it's how Punk looks in 2023...it's provocative, anti establishment, anti authoritarian, shocking, but with less aggression and much more mockery...

I love your reaction.. the song is a satirical act and great and important message. 💙😅😅

Don't worry if you don't understand what they singing (on Croatian), many Croatians also don't know what they are singing, although they think they do :-)) Trick is that Let3 have coding messages in their verses usually in many layers, they texts usually looks like unrelated and out of rhyme. One layer can have one "obviously" or generally accepted meaning, but 2nd layer can be total opposite meaning, depending on each individual associations. And they never reveal they actually meaning, or when they do, this usually opens more questions than before. For instance Let 3 released an album in 1997 "Nečuveno" , you can translate this as "unheard", this album didn't had any song inside (as album name suggested), just pure silence. Later they explained that they wanna that their listeners spend some time with themselves in silence (and probably turn on their brain) ;-). BTW for ŠČ they officially told that this is letter from oldest alphabet 5000 years older than 1st known alphabet , and that this letter will be now send in orbit around Earth, and after armagedon it will return back to the Earth (from orbit) so that we can again have 1st letter of alphabet. In other interview they told that this is some blood type. On 3rd interview they said that this (ŠČ) is related to strong orgasm or deep meditation. I can tell you one thing for sure, after 40 years of their mocking limited to local area (some call it Balkan), now they have opportunity to have global mega mocking, and be ready, nobody can control them. They are already some calls to forbid their appearance on eurovision stage.

♥️ from Croatia 🤗

basically it's a story about how Lukashenko gives Putin a tractor, how Mother Russia (the people) loves her little psychopathic leader and so on... But the point is that it's art, and it's perhaps the song with the most sarcasm and the most messages ever written and sung. It can be applied to almost all the chaos of the world that is happening right now, from the pandemic, to aliens, and all that rattling of weapons and threats of nuclear war... Personally, this song reminds me of a visit to an abstract art museum where nothing makes sense and everything is so good .... haha, total chaos

ŠČ❤❤❤🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷

I guess everyone who isnt from Croatia or the Ex-Yugoslav region will be confused. That is totally ok, but I have to say the reactions on RU-vid are even funnier for us Croats. These guys are known for that stuff and they are active since 1987. They like to provoke. I dont listen to them personally but I am really happy we chose them. Btw the BL world in your channel name... does it mean what I think it means? Do you make reactions to BL series as well? If so, thats cool.

On one of the rockets at the end of the song, and on the forehead, it says NJILE=LENJIN, Lenin eng. And on the second rocket it says PAJČU=ČUPAJ, pull out=Put in. It is obvious who the song is talking about.

Mama = Motherland (Mother Russia) ŠČ = Slavic/Russian alphabet letter representation, "Z" reference but can also be interpreted as a word with various meanings (a salute or a FU) Tractor: Putin got one for his 70th from Lukashenko, president of Belarus, also a reference to any army vehicle Moron = Putin/Dictator Crocodile Psychopath: Boris Johnson compared Putin to a crocodile, also a "zombie" street drug reportedly widely used in Russia and "crocodile tears" Mama loved/supported a moron, now he is waging war. Lead singer has Stalin mustache (also a reference to dictators in general) and the one with missiles, dressed like Rasputin, has Lenin written on his forehead. Drag military outfits - taunting Putin (and all conservatives) for his views of LGBTQ+ community Nothing about this song or the performance is accidental, it has a strong anti-war message. Brilliant! This video explains it all! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0eABMz77xns.html

I LOOOOVEEEE THEM! 🔝🔝🔝🔝♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Lijepo je vidjet osmjeh na licu. ŠČ

An great unconventional reaction. This is indeed a great song.

Good vibe 😂

Spectacular 😍 😍 😍 😍

Let 3 said that they were bored and that's the reason for them joining the competition. It's all a joke, they had no intention to win the Croatian song contest. And this song grows on you after you listen to it a few times. It a big middle finger to Putin and Eurovision. 😆

The lead singer has the styling like Charlie Chaplin in Big dictator.... The song mocks Putin and his threat od starting nuclear war and acting like the whole world is his own private toy.... The tractor is actually a reference to Belarus....

Croatia to the win!!!!!!!!!!!! Yaaaaaaas 💗🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

You should see them in a talk show, especially the last part of it when they did a bit of a (butt) performance. Mrle released a pigeon out of his undies. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TgvZljWMQpA.html Here they were beautifully dressed... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qm-oDidKWSQ.html Now the lyrics: Mum, bought a tractor Armageddon grandma Mum was in love with a moron Mum, I'm going to play, mum I'm going to war That little psychopath, a little, mean psychopath crocodile psychopath Mum, I'm going to war!

ŠČ ❤

Oh, you're definitely meant to laugh, it's satire, and trolling Putin to the max. The lead singer is dressed as a brilliant mix of gay Stalin, Charlie Chaplin's Hitler, and just a bit of Freddy Mercury. Putin will be livid LMAO

Č (Russian Ŝ), Let3's song about Putin's ('Mother') Russia, is the most appropriate aesthetic and musical Croatian answer for the Eurovision song to the current Russian aggression. So let's decipher the text a bit. 'Mama' is constantly repeated in the song: 'Mama bought a tractor, Mama loved a moron'... 'Mama' as Mother Russia, and Belarus (Belarus) is actually a tractor model... Mother Russia (sub)bought a Tractor (Belarus) from which she also launched aggression, and from which evil is also spreading (similarly, they have been 'buying' whoever they can for years ... By the way, Putin recently received a tractor from Lukashenka for his birthday). In short, Mother Russia loves a moron - Putin - a little crocodile psychopath, who threatens armageddon, for which the little man goes to war. That's roughly how Let3 see it lyrically, the only ones on the Croatian scene who sang in a symbolic and sarcastic way about Russian aggression, which is shaping the fate of Europe. Recently, in one of the interviews, when they appeared in a TV studio with rockets with "Lenin" written on them, they said that Putin is "an example of a braggart who thinks the planet is his toy." That's what the band from the left spectrum is saying, while many others are silent! And as for the other songs, mostly rather empty and worn-out lamentations about the sufferings of love... and for that it is better to open 'The Sufferings of Young Werther'

ŠČ 😍

He’s cussing putin.. “mama ljubila morona” translates to, “mother loved an idiot”.. possibly in reference to “Mother Russia, loved an idiot”

Very nice video and this song is the best..

Š=25th letter in Croatian alphabet Č=4th letter in Croatian alphabet 25+4=29 29th letter of Croatian alphabet is letter Z

ŠČ win 💜💙💚💛🧡❤

ŠČ! 🚀 ⭕

NO WAR

The cross dressed man are the hottest man. So much joy 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

I liked how high you were while commenting.... you are a hit 😂😂😂😂

ŠČ❤️👍👍👍

😀😀😄

love your video

The text and performance are ambiguous. How you will (want to) understand this performance depends on your classification on this or that side. No, this is not about Putin as some explain , this is equally about Putin, Belarus, Zelensky ( USA) . . The letter Щ ( ŠĆ , pronunciation - very , very soft š ( sh ) ) , the 27th letter of the Russian alphabet, has a long history of origin, which goes back to the time of the appearance of the first Slavic alphabets: Cyrillic and Glagolitic All other explanations of the meaning of this letter are invented, wrong, and people just copy them without any verification.

Croatia Will win

A culo de Putin 👍🇭🇷🤣🤣💣👏

Ukraine ❤️

If you're already giving a reaction to the song ... then why do you add that awful noise in the background ... that's just ... ŠČ
