I's not just "the war in Ukraine", it's RUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN war, in which ruSSia occupied UKRAINIAN Crimea and Donbas. Jinjer are basically refugees, they fled their occupied tometown Gorlivka in Donbass and moved first to L'viv and then to Kyiv. But their families are still in this occupied zone of devastation and terror, which ruSSia looted, ruined and turned into a lawless zone with destroyed economy, curfews, unemployment and rule of criminals under ruSSian military control.

This song actually makes me really emotional. But I am from the same region as the band. My native town was one of the first ones where the military actions started. When the war started I was already living in Canada for a couple of years and just had my first child. But my entire family was still living there (parents, grannies, aunts, unless, cousins..). It was killing me. To wake up in the middle of the night to check on news, was there another bombing today or not. First thing in the morning: to call everyone I know "Are you OK (which actually was more like is everyone alive). I can't tell you how many tears I cried at the time. Also at age 24 I got half of my head of gray hair.. There's no enemy I would ever wish to hear sounds of explosions and sirens going on while you're calling your loved ones. And I was not even there at the time.. My child was not there.. And I have so many friends who want through this while being pregnant and having their babies.. Who lost their loved ones in that war.. Also we were lucky and our native town is not occupied anymore. My parents've been war refugees for two years, but eventually could go back to their home. Millions of people there probably lost their homes forever. Guys from Jinjer included.. The moment where Tati is drinking morning tea is about people being trapped in the middle of the conflict getting used to the situation.. Almost normalizing everything that's going on. I heard multiple times from my friends somethings like: "Do you hear a bullet fling?? Is it towards us?" - “no, it's from our side. " -" OK"... Because when you hear a sound of flying rockets, bullets, explosions for the first time in life it scares sh**t out of you. But when you hear it regularly for months that's your new "normal" from now on.. Ofcourse it's not normally, but your brain shutting you out sometimes not to go crazy. My mom ended up with PTSD afterwards.. She was afraid of fireworks, airplanes, was stuttering for a while.. Now she is much better, but I doubt something like this can be ever forgotten completely..

As mentioned in the other comments. It’s about their home in Ukraine. Here are the lyrics: What is this?! What is this mess?! What's that noise? Is this a death sentence? Terrifying silhouettes Rising over the motherland. Are those the fireworks? No. it's a military quirk. Is it a mermaid singing? No. it's a siren screaming. Is it an angel watching over us? It's an air-fighter making a fuss. Is it a unicorn galloping down the street? No, those are soldiers' boots marching to the beat Marching to the beat Why is this party looking so bizarre? A party? No! this is W.A.R. My darling, did we wake up like this? Isolated bodies in a boudoir of helplessness. A bullet is an early bird, a midnight owl. Morning greeting of a rooster are replaced With fire in a hole. My dear, do we have to go to sleep like that? With a soothing cocktail and the hundredth cigarette. Morning greeting of a rooster are replaced With FIRE IN A HOLE!. Our beds are cold, As cold as basement floor. Our beds are cold, As cold as basement floor. This house is not our shelter anymore. Anymore. Home is not a building, Home is liberty. A place where memories live In prosperity and peace. I came back home so I want my home back I came back home so I want my home back. Don't you leave us homeless! Don't you leave us homeless! Homeless homeless.

Ari is “all about that bass”. 😂 I was so happy to see that two of my favorite reactors had returned to my favorite band. Rock on, ladies!

It is definitely tea-party-like: One Alice who is the only sensible one and around her crazy, sureal madness, which you don`t understand, don`t want to understand because it`s war in your homeland, your city. You try to explain your children although you yourself still haven`t understood in the first place. It is a perfect anti-war song. Oh, I love that song!

Ohhh good catch!

They did such a great job with this video. I had high expectations for it when it was released, and they exceeded them all.

While Alice in Wonderland is obviously part of it, I think the broader theme is a child trying to deal with living through war. The "nice" tea party is the fantasy, while the "bad" tea party is the reality, dirty, dark, things broken. If you watch closely, she's pouring water, not tea, like a kid playing. The kid is trying to find normality when they're sleeping in the basement in case of air strikes, just trying to make sense of everything.

This song,and your reaction, are sure on point, now..Thanks.

The entire purpose of this song and video is to deliver Jinjer's vital message of the lyrics. My take: People the world over, we've got to do better. Kick out and reject tyrannical, corrupt, greedy leaders that bring poverty and war to the people while building their own bank accounts. We can make the world peaceful and prosperous starting with or own country. Vote 'em out NOW and put in true leaders with integrity and ideas that build, not destroy to enrich themselves! If you don't have any honest leaders, become one yourself and run for office!

It's about ruSSIAN -UKRAINIAN WAR, which ruSSia started in 2014 with occupation of UKRAINIAN Crimea and Donbass. Jinjer are refugees who fled their occupied hometown Gorlivka in occupied Donbass and moved to Lviv.

Such a powerful song and powerful lyrics! I have loved this song since the album came out and the video makes it even more powerful and meaningful!!! Great reaction ladies!!!

Never too much Jinjer 😁

Thanks for the awesome reaction vid! :) I always love seeing others enjoy Jinjer as much as I do. So a few things that I've come to really appreciate and understand about this track: -This song is an anti-war and very personal song to Jinjer about their experience with the war in Ukraine (almost like their own Zombies by the Cranberries).They've been what they call themselves 'tour refugees for awhile now because they haven't been able to come back to their home and have instead been living on the road for months at a time doing shows internationally -The beginning of the song is told from the innocent perspective of a child who doesn't quite understand what's going on with the war being waged around them (mermaid = siren, unicorn = soldiers, etc) and then transitions into the 'tea party' bridge where the perspective of the lyrics then shifts to the mother instead who's doing her best to hold her family together and create a sense of normalcy for her child all while trying to ignore this harsh reality that's going on outside. Finally the song climaxes with their house being bombed/destroyed and becoming not a home or shelter anymore but a 'fire in a hole' -The jazzy bridge imo sounds like it has a lot of influences from bossa nova music which is just a wild thing to have in any metal song in general but god is it fucking amazing lol -The high note that Eugene the bassist slaps over and over is meant to sound like an air raid siren going off as well as the blast beats/notes from the Vlad on drums/Roman on guitar sounding like gunfire Every time I rewatch this video I feel like I always find something new to pick out. All in all this song is one of my absolute favorites of theirs and is a technical masterpiece that puts their raw talent on perfect display in everything from Tatis vocals/stage performance to their vibrant musicianship.

Ladies is in a very emotional song about the Ukraine and where the band comes from and they're saying they don't want to be homeless because the Soviet Army is right on their border with missile compartments tanks and troops ready to invade so what Tatiana is essentially saying is I want my home back and I don't want to be homeless when I go home

Debt, the longer and more the war the higher the cost and interest , one bank loans the nonexistent dollar to both sides therefore creating debt which then gives them power to do whatever,whenever they feel.
