🇺🇦alyona alyona & Jerry Heil - Teresa & Maria (LIVE) - Eurovision 2024 - IRISH REACTION

[@olenashalena]

The lyrics are about women and their lives, but the meaning of the visual is about Ukraine, which is fighting despite the fact that it is very difficult.

[@WhoEustace]

the song isn't religious, although it's easy to mistake it if you don't speak Ukrainian so it's alright to make that assumption the song is about women and their struggles, how even the holiest were still born as regular human beings, with another, more hidden meaning beneath all that - it's about Ukraine, our "mother" country, the woman warrior, and all the women inside it still holding on, still bearing the weight of responsibilities and future on their shoulders there is war symbolism - the water beneath Jerry Heils feet in the beginning is the flood from the Kahovka dam, the one that russians blew up causing severe floods; the "fireworks" are phosphor bombs being dropped on civilians during the night; and the "shadows" during the rap part being spirits of people who died in this horrible genocide

Джере-джере-джерело пробива собі шлях Що би, що би не було, світ на її плечах Мані-мані-манівці - звивисті, скелясті Але, знай, в твоїй руці твоє власне щастя Давай, мала, палай I'm not holy, I'm alive З нами мама Тереза й Діва Марія Босі, ніби по лезу, йшли по землі With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria All the divas were born as the human beings З нами мама Тереза й Діва Марія Босі, ніби по лезу, йшли по землі With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria All the divas were born as the human beings Навіть ще змаля ми шукали шлях Та життя петля ніби для тих, хто падає На своїх плечах ще мале дівча Несе з болю чан і вбача, що то вада є Знову не така, то надто м'яка Одяг на кістках, голяка чи то під вінець Де твоє дитя? Що твоє життя? Та роки ж летять, і, затям, скоро вже кінець І хай хтось хоче, аби ми зламались Хай бува в тобі заряду не по лікоть, а по палець І хай хтось хова за посмішкою ненависть і заздрість Коли ти впускаєш в серце гнів добра й любові замість Але в небі є святі, їх ноги бачили цю землю Знаєш, твій тернистий шлях саме тому є не даремно І хай буде дуже страшно й темно і часом нелегко Та з тобою завжди будуть з неба слідувати предки З нами мама Тереза й Діва Марія Босі, ніби по лезу, йшли по землі With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria All the divas were born as the human beings З нами мама Тереза й Діва Марія Босі, ніби по лезу, йшли по землі With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria All the divas were born as the human beings

Spri-spri-spring carves its way, No matter what, the world is on her shoulders Pa-pa-path is winding and rocky But you should know: your own happiness is in your hands Come on, little girl, light up I’m not holy, I’m alive Mother Teresa and Diva Maria are with us Barefoot, as if on a blade, they walked on the ground With us mama Teresa, Diva Maria All the Divas were born as human beings Mother Teresa and Diva Maria are with us Barefoot, as if on a blade, they walked on the ground With us mama Teresa, Diva Maria All the Divas were born as human beings Even when we were little, we searched for a path, And life is a loop, as if for those who are falling On her shoulders, still a young girl, She carries a burden of pain, seeing it as a flaw Again not as she should be, or too tender, Clothes on her bones, naked or going down the aisle Where is your child? What is your life? But the years are flying! You should be aware: the end is near And may someone want us to break May there be energy in you not the elbow-deep, but the finger-deep And may someone hide hatred and envy behind a smile, When you let anger into your heart, instead of kindness and love. But there are saints in the sky, their feet have seen this earth, you know, That’s why your thorny path is not in vain And though it may be very scary and dark and sometimes not easy, But you'll always have your ancestors following you from heaven Mother Teresa and Diva Maria are with us Barefoot, as if on a blade, they walked on the ground With us mama Teresa, Diva Maria All the Divas were born as a human beings Mother Teresa and Diva Maria are with us Barefoot, as if on a blade, they walked on the ground With us mama Teresa, Diva Maria All the Divas were born as human beings

Alona alona and Helty. Is super bravo and performance is super drive. ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉 Congratulations! 👏👏👏

[@АринаОгнистая]

Actually, Ukraine is the geographical center of Europe, while Israel does not belong to Europe geographically at all

[@argumentativelysound2001]

Neither is Australia, but it appears on occasion amongst other guests.

[@Vadz-d8y]

Грузия, Армения, Азербайджан и Кипр тоже не находятся в Европе. Про Австралию вообще молчу.

[@Vadz-d8y]

Христианство, которое стало главной религией пришло в Европу из древнего Израиля. Иудео-христианская цивилизация объединяет всю Европу и связывает Израиль с Европой.

[@АринаОгнистая]

@@Vadz-d8y и как это делает Израиль географически частью Европы? Нет понятия "иудео христианская" цивилизация, учитывая то, что это антиподы друг друга. Иудеи не признают ни Христа, ни христианство, так же как и христиане считают, что иудеи в заблуждении.

[@АринаОгнистая]

​@@Vadz-d8y Кто говорит что они входят? Прежде чем вклиниваться в разговор с неуместными комментариями, поймите суть обсуждения. Речь в видео шла о том, что Украина не входит в Европу, а является чем-то вроде Израиля. Я поясняю, что Украина географически часть Европы, Израиль нет. Какие еще вопросы?

[@argumentativelysound2001]

This is not religious song, but with meaningful spiritual touch. Also... Ukraine is not part of Europe? 😅Have you seen the map?

[@COUNTYGAINS]

amazing performance!! I love the transition between singing and rap music!! let me know what you all thinK!!

[@НаталяКоровай-б9б]

Весь номер очень гармоничен,наполнен духовностю,эмоционален...Мураршки потелу,настолько сильна энергетика!Просто бомба!P.S.A,смысл текста какой,а?Потрясающе!

[@shatelei]

Alyona Alyona is pronounsed like in the word "learn" - Alearna Alearna)))

[@natastudyN]

It's NOT a religious song! Crocs? Really, the only thing you saw in this fantastic performance, where every detail and second is aligned with the deep meaningful message?

[@yelyzavetaromanova945]

I am so disappointed in this video...I mean Alyona Alyona doesn't even wear crocs.....and this person is totally out of reality. I am not sure he even checks news

[@floralmist6824]

It is a dual meaning song, which leads into one another. You can picture the hardships of Mother Mary and Mother Teresa. It brings you so close to God, if that's your belief. Which slides in to what it has to do with the Ukraine. The hardships female saints endured can also express the extreme hardships Ukrainian women do. Almost like loosely saying Ukrainian women are all saints. Play nice.

[@ilonarichter3666]

Thank you four supporting Ukraine! ❤🍀

[@ІринаС-я8ч]

Thanks for your reaction) it's sort of about the fact that however hard it might be for you at some point, there were decent people in the past who did it too and they are with you❤❤

[@COUNTYGAINS]

Thanks for the tips!

[@ИринаГоловач-в2ы]

Thank you for your reaction ❤ best regards from Ukraine 🇺🇦 I think the main message of the song is that all the divines or strong female figures in the world were first of all human beings, so it's up to the individuals how they walk their path, up to sainthood. This song is about sisterhood, female solidarity. Intro: A stream, stream, stream breaks its way, Whatever happens, the world is on her shoulders. (When Jerry start to sing about stream, the water started to flow on the scene under her feets through the rocks. Water makes its way like every human its own life). The pathway, pathway, pathway is rocky and winding, But know that your happiness is in your hands. (You will have testings, obstacles, difficults on your way, but remember, your happiness is in your own hands - in this moment Jerry king it over the river). I’m not holy, A’m alive. (I think it means every person is not perfect, not holy, we make mistakes). Chorus: With us are Mother Theresa and Virgin Mary, Barefoot, like on the blades, they've walked the Earth. With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria All the Divas were born as a human being. (At this moment Jerry started to climbing the mountain, which means difficults in life, struggle. Also the visions may symbolizing phosphor bombs - struggle of our nation (Ukraine) nowadays, in particular women. "Teresa" is Mother Teresa who was revered all over the world for her humanitarian work, and "Maria" is Virgin Mary (Maria). Boht of them were human beings, but there life, and how they pass life tests were incredible and made them Divas). The rap part: We were trying to find our way since we were little, But life is like a loop for those who are falling. Even a little girl carries on her shoulders A vat full of pain, and knows that it is a fault (it's about overcoming the pressure from the society) . Again she's not the way she should be(expectations of other people, of society) : too soft (plus size), The clothes hang on her bones (too skinny), [looks] half-naked, or getting married (lot of clothes - too shy). "Where is your child?" "What does your life look like?" "You're not getting younger! And the end is nearing" (the idea that woman will be realized in her life only when she have husband and children). And if someone wants us to break down, And even if your energy is close to zero, And even if someone hides hate and envy behind a smile, [And even] when you let anger in your heart instead of kindness and love [Know that] there are saints in Heaven, their feet walked this Earth, That's why your walk among thorns isn't fatuous. And even if sometimes it'll be very dark, scary and hard, But your ancestors will always follow you from Heaven. (The shadows on the screen (female siluets) symbolize our ancestors, our mothers, grandmothers that look after us from heaven). In this moment Jerry and Alyona go towards each other halfway, give each other a hand that means solidarity, then turn around back to back to each other which means that they protect each other's rear. And finaly they lay on a scene where we see a lot of females - symbol of women all over the world - very different, but very unic.

at the end Jerry was saying Thank You For Supporting Ukraine!

[@ОлександрШемаєв]

Amazing super supper song Ukraine the best. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@4631622876]

Dude! It’s folk and rap - not religious song, but elevated to havens. All saints were born humans with a hard pathway, Ukrainian women are on such path nowadays.

[@COUNTYGAINS]

Its A awesome song!!

I THINK SO TO! MUCH LOVE FOR THE SUPPORT!

[@olga-p4h]

Eastern Europe? Is there a continent called Eastern Europe? It is Europe. Even if you tried to say Ukraine is in the East of Europe - still it’s wrong. Geographical center of Europe is located in Ukraine. Maybe get yourself a Geography book. 😂

[@igorkolos7960]

@@olga-p4h What is the continent for? you unsuccessfully try to use sarcasm (although you do not have it), inappropriately. Go to Wikipedia first and read what is written. Your comment is ridiculous.

[@olga-p4h]

@@igorkolos7960 Excuse me? What is the continent for? What do you think Euro- in the word EUROvision stands for? Spoiler alert - Europe. Not euro as currency as this “master of thought” claims. Geographical center of Europe is in Ukraine. I’ll go to Wikipedia once you get yourself a map. 🗺️

Thanks for your video!❤ I recommend listening to the song Артем Пивоваров & Klavdia Petrivna - Барабан (Artem Pyvovarov & Klavdia Petrivna - Drum). Your reaction to this song is very interesting.

[@V.Zakomirnyi]

The lights in the sky during Jerry Heil's speech symbolize the flashes of phosphorus bombs, prohibited by all international conventions, but with which the Russians fire at the positions of the Armed Forces, as well as peaceful cities and villages of Ukraine. And during Alyona Alyona's performance, you see shadows above - those are the souls of our glorious ancestors and hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians killed by the Russian invaders; they support us from heaven. Both singers have partly the image of female warriors: Jerry Heil has knight's armor on his shoulders, and Alyon Alyon has chain mail on his neck and chest. Alyona Alyona pulls out a sword from behind her back: she has a barrette in the shape of a sword in her hair. I'm surprised that someone like this blogger still doesn't know that Ukraine is defending human civilization from the neo-Nazism that the Russian Empire represents today. The director of this presentation/production is Tanya Muinho (born 1989), a world-renowned Ukrainian music video maker, designer, stylist, photographer and director. She is the director of music videos of popular world and Ukrainian artists, such as: Dua Lipa, Jungkook(JK), Katy Perry, Jennifer Lopez, Harry Styles, Sam Smith, Lenny Kravitz, Post Malone, The Weeknd, Cardi B, Megan The Stallion, Rosalia , Lil Nas X, Lizzo, Yungblud, MONATIK and others.

It just sucks that diva has a beautiful, deep meaning. But then you hear "diva" like mariah carey, celene dion, and all these terrible, hateful, demanding "divas". I think they should just be called evil and diva always meant a woman of hard times who can withstand it all no matter how tough. Many everyday woman
