    I literally spent the last two and a half hours trying to find this song, I listened to it more than a year ago, and it just came to my mind, but the only thing I could remember is that the name of the song started with U and it had a female vocalist.
    After two hours and some minutes I remembered that the song was the name of a deity, so it started the quest to find the name of deities that start with U, around 20 minutes reading lots of pages on the web, my eyes just glanced at >Umai

      On the flip side, I found a lot of other cool stuff in the process, so... profit?

      Yup - sure is. This popped up in my feed a cpl yrs back - pretty sure it was during the COVID lockdown. But that’s when I decided that I really enjoyed her voice & their style. She reminds me of Heilung’s vibe. That tribal, Viking magic vibe. Admittedly tho this vid could’ve been a lot better imo. I feel she could’ve taken us on an excursion- where the video literally takes us out of ourselves. She already had us there til they pulled up in an old Chevy Rabbit or an early 80’s Dodge lol. That yanked me out and put me right back in my seat lol. Shame bcz it all could’ve been done without exceeding whatever budget she had at the time.

      @touchnotthiscat "This guy isn't letting his poor experiences turn him into someone who hates or abuses women."
      I'm not so sure about that. He sounds an awful lot like an abuser.
      No female person has ever said something nice to him *ever*? *All* women he has *ever met* have treated him "poorly" and he's still waiting to "find a pleasant" one? Either his mother is keeping him locked up in the basement since his birth OR he does not apply the same standards to women as he does to men.
      He's most definitively talking about *sexual* attention he thinks women owe him, not just the basic human respect people usually have for each other. IF he's not then, oh boy, that would mean that every woman he's ever met literally hates his guts -- and we'd have to wonder what he does to have that effect. Either way, he's already blaming "the bad guys who turned the good ones bad" for his future actions.
      Tbh, he sounds an awful lot like misogynist mass murderer Elliot Roger who similarly called himself an "ideal magnificent gentleman" before murdering six people and himself, or like Roger's fan Alek Minassian who has 10 counts of murder and 13 counts of attempted murder. Let's make no mistake, the Incel/Redpill/Manosphere community is *not* a bunch of harmless young men who got unlucky in their love life, it's an ideological cult that regularly turns spineless people like Derek into domestic terrorists.
      "Nice Guys" are not nice.

      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umay
      Umay is the goddes of life and death, fertility, mothers, children, nature, the earth. She is the bestower and keeper of the "life soul" of all beings, she can grant it, take it as she sees fit. Disrespecting mothers, children, the earth and nature are sure ways to make her take lives and she can convince the winds of fate to help her.
      Her mythology is pretty cool and quite diverse depending on which ethnic groups' stories you listen to.

    I get the feeling that this song portrays the karma cycle of 'what comes around goes around'. The quakes of war and hatred returned by the tremors of the earth, the poisons filling the waters becoming our slow-killing sustenance, and so on. Even if it doesn't intend such a message, it could easily come across that way. And it's a very powerful song.

    Kyrgyz people would believe that Umai is a goddess, who protects women and children. And "shireen" is translated as "juice; sweet; nice".

    But in this mud you'll die
    And you will pray
    And lightning illuminates your faith
    When lightning… uh lightning
    If you sweet child
    Never screamed to get your way
    I will forget you… lying there
    And sleep for a million days
    And I hear your prayers
    U…Mi A….
    Instead I'll give you my storm
    I'll give you my hail
    I will tear out trees, sweep up the seas, destroy all the fields
    And you reach for the sky
    But in this mud you'll die
    And you will pray
    When lightning illuminates your faith
    You will pray. You will pray. You will pray
    U…MIIIiii AAAaaa….

      It's because she is dressed like a "dragon-woman". Notice the scales on her legs; the horns; a reptile miniature on her boots; a claw-like ring; a tail on her back; face paint.

    • @TomatoAbe
      @TomatoAbe 7 років тому +9

      IlIlIlIl To be fair, only the dragon "tail-oring" (yuk-yuk-yuk!) and the lizard-heels are shown in the first minute, and I didn't even see the rad heel mods until after this comment. In fact, my first impression of "draconic theme" in the video also came from the (really cool IMO) tail motif of the cloak/dress. I'd also argue that the leg scales could be pretty easily dismissed as just decorative jewelry, unless you already know what symbolism to be looking for, and the horned hairstyle could be interpreted a few different ways as well. The same could be said of the face paint, and I straight-up couldn't even really see the ring well enough to draw meaning from it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
