Teya and Salena "Who the Hell is Edgar?" at Schönbrunn Palace "austria for life" charity

[@lindonesc]

Teya and Salena have subordinated themselves to a kind of play. Under the patronage of the Austrian President, money was collected for underprivileged young people and children in Austria. The whole thing was framed in a 2-hour play that told the history of Austria in connection with Schönbrunn Palace. From the builder Empress Maria Theresa to today. Teya and Salena embodied the so-called "Biedermeier period" from 1815 -1848, when the Austrian bourgeoisie and artists, disappointed by the unchangeable political situation in Austria, turned away from politics and turned entirely to private life. Interior decoration, painting, reading, writing non political stuff...

[@EirinsApprentice]

Nice choice of time period for them to represent, since Poe wrote in the 1830s and 1840s

[@aminadoce]

If this was their staging for Liverpool, Austria would have skyrocket my entire ranking, this is LIGHT YEARS ahead of the actual staging i'm loving it fr

[@itsjxomusic]

Teya said the outfits were way too hot :( It would've slayed for sure but it could have messed the performance up a bit if they were overheating lol x

[@aminadoce]

I guess they used the wrong fabrics. I study historical fashion very often and I remember well how garments were made with light materials so women back them wouldn't overheat in a sunny day It's more likely that austrian tv were too lazy to make fitting outfits to them with the right materials lmao

[@Bionickpunk]

@@aminadoce There is a difference between winter and summer fabrics from those periods, usually the key is how much layers you have.

[@wednes3day]

There's probably also a lot of extra heat from stage lights 😅

[@aminadoce]

@@wednes3day They are lights, not lasers lmao

[@liza_mandrake]

Such a good staging!!! Very fitting to Austria and same time period as the life of Edgar Allan Poe! Such a miss that they didn't use it in Liverpool, they would receive much much more points.

[@bubblepirate8316]

those Outfits fits better as esc Outfits than the planned ones and the dancers are incredible

[@SherlockH85]

they said yesterday, that the costumes from "Dancing Stars" (the planned costumes) are not the costumes for Eurovision. So they seemed to have changed that.

[@SherlockH85]

still don't think that the costumes of the video are the ones for Eurovision. Maybe we will see a third option ;)

[@bubblepirate8316]

But i think with those Outfits and stage concept right here they have a chance to beat finland

[@krunoslavkovacec1842]

Awesomeeeee. If only all artists could have the opportunity to present their songs like this.

[@Chippy_Tea]

I wish they were doing the head mic for the Eurovision stage instead of handheld mic so they can do the choreography

[@JasmineSurrealVideos]

I'm British so not aware of the historical underpinnings of the presentation, but from an aesthetic point of view it looks gorgeous, the historic costumes befitting with the ghost who has haunted them, ie, Poe, and a much better fit than the Eurovision performance which reminded me of Kraftwerk, which was great, but this is better. I love the song so much, a nifty pun on singers using ghost writers for their hits, and these girls are literally using a ghost writer. Camera work was a bit jumpy, but otherwise I enjoyed it, and hope to hear more from these wonderful ladies.

[@escfever3241]

I wish these were the costumes for the Eurovision 😅

[@aleksandrag-ska]

Next year in ESC someone is using this concept of historical staging for sure! The idea is awesome.

[@emmahealy4863]

This song reminds me of when we stayed in Ted Hughes & Sylvia Plath's old manor house for a week as a school trip. We were /convinced/ the house was haunted - for literally no reason. We would go around typing things like "I AM TED HUGHES I WILL K!LL YOU IN YOU SLEEP" on the old typewriters in the library and leave them in each other's bedrooms, then blame it on the "ghost" 😂 fun times, I'm sure we would've loved this song back in 2012

Producer decision and saving their voices for the rehearsels at Eurovision 48 hours later.

[@EKsUrbanTracks]

This staging is 10000000 times better than during the ESC! Why the downgrade? The corny dance, the dresses, the colours, the makeup, it's in line with Poe and the anachronism with the references to Universal and Spotify (and the tattoos :p) are super funny. EDIT: this is every single comment under this video, I hope the Austrian delegation is not reading. :D

Genialer Song, aber hoffentlich ist die Regie in Liverpool besser!!!!!

[@lindonesc]

Ich habe länger überlegt ob ich das uploaden soll weil mir klar war, dass das Verwirrung stiften würde. Teya und Salena haben sich da einer Art Theaterstück untergeordnet. Unter der Schirmherrschaft des österreichischen Präsidenten wurde Geld gesammelt für unterprivilegierte Jugendliche und Kinder in Österreich. Eingerahmt war das Ganze in einem 2 stündigen Theaterstück das die Geschichte Österreichs in Konnex mit Schloss Schönbrunn erzählte. Von der Erbauerin Kaiserin Maria Theresia bis heute. Teya und Salena verkörperten darin die sogenannte "Biedermeier-Zeit" von 1815 -1848 als sich das österreichische Bürgertum enttäuscht von nicht änderbaren politischen Gegebenheiten in Österreich abwandte und sich ganz dem privaten zuwandte. Innendekoration, malen, lesen usw.

Well you might be right about the Outfits. I am not sure. But they do have good voices. I hope live. There is no time for Theater at ESC. Though Austrians would love that little Gag.

[@aliceferguson6033]

Playback...

[@Chris-ne2dx]

The song is nice but the performance is weak with poor vocals. The costumes and heavy eye make up are not very 'biedermayer'.

[@lindonesc]

Of course, you will not find total historical accuracy in this play. There are always references to the present. Mozart sings in this play about the cost of living crises, which really existed at the time. But he sings "one needs gasoline for the car". Of course there were no cars and gasoline back then.

[@EKsUrbanTracks]

The vocals are literally perfect, because it's recorded. It couldn't get any better.
