    .Hidden in a plain sight.
    This is a superb ‘rock-opera’ anti-war parody with powerful visuals. Tractor is a reference to Belarus president 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 nuclear rockets has NINLE on his forehead (word play: Nin-Le=Lenin) and is dressed in monk's outfit, like Rasputin. Insertion of a dominant, sinister, dark Lenin, who came way before Putin, points to a much deeper problem. And those TWO nuclear warheads; after all we all know who dropped the A-bombs! ’Trajna nina nena’ is Croatian song for little kids; ‘Trajna nina armagedon nona’(grandma) speaks for itself. Mama ŠČ is a metaphor for Mother Russia (ŠČ is a letter of the Russian alphabet, also old Croatian Glagolitic). The Cyrillic letter Shch Щ was derived from the Glagolitic (Croatian script) letter Sht Ⱋ. Coincidently, the sum of letters Š and Č gives Z (25+4=29) in Croatian alphabet, and Z is a military symbol used by Russian Federation to mark their military vehicles in Ukraine.
    The chaotic reverse part of the song represents repeating the same mistakes from history, and not learning anything. Croatian alphabet in reverse: Ž(Ж/Ⰶ), Z(З/Ⰷ), V(В/Ⰲ), U(У/Ⱆ), T(Т/Ⱅ), Š(Ш/Ⱎ), S(С/Ⱄ), R(Р/Ⱃ), P(П/Ⱂ), O(О/Ⱁ), Nj(Њ/Ⱀⰺ), N(Н/Ⱀ), M(М/Ⰿ), Lj(Љ/Ⰾⰺ), L(Л/Ⰾ), K(К/Ⰽ), J(Й/Ⰺ), I(И/Ⰻ), H(Х/Ⱈ), G(Г/Ⰳ), F(Ф/Ⱇ), E(Е/Ⰵ), Đ(Ђ/Ⰼ), Dž(Џ/Ⰴⰶ), D(Д/Ⰴ), Ć(Ћ/Ⱋ), Č(Ч/Ⱍ), C(Ц/Ⱌ), B(Б/Ⰱ), A(А/Ⰰ).
    Visually, there are a lot of subliminals with multilevel meaning.
    Crocodile is a terrible 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; making fun of all warmongers and military establishments, proponents of chaos. Side image shows roses sticking out of their asses. Preposterous, or superb description of the present time? Main exclamation is ‘mama idem u rat’- mommy I am going to war, a cry against the forced mobilization, and sending young people to kill each other.
    When are we going to learn?!

    This is much more serious song than it seems at the first glance! It's anti-war and anti-dictatorship protest rock opera like song and brutal mockery of "little vile psychop**h" which is interpreted by majority of music professionals as Putin himself and ALL OTHER mad dictators like him, played by the Let 3 - famous experimental and often extremely provocative Croatian art punk rock band that is active over 30 years and which also had numerous collaborations in theater peroformances including those with very serious directors.
    Lyrics description: "Mama ŠČ" = Mama Russia (among Russians "mother" symbolises their country), ŠČ is letter from the Russian alphabet.
    "Mother bought a tractor" = Belarus dictator Lukašenko gave to Putin tractor for his 70th birthday.
    "Mother loved a moron" = Mother Russia loved Putin.
    As i've written "little vile psychop**h" is also Putin and all mad agressors like him!
    Let 3 outfits and styling: military like clothes as the representation of all mad war thirsty dictators in combo with drag queen like clothes and makeup (provocation to homophobic Russian President and likewise dictatorial conservatives).
    Bald man is wearing dark scarf - alusion to Rasputin, another reference to Russia and on his forehead there's inscription "NJINLE" which is Croatian word play for LENJIN (NJIN + LE = LENJIN).
    Nuclear rockets are rather self-explanatory: "little vile psychop**h" from the Kremlin is constantly threatening with usage of nukes!
    Warm greetings from Croatia

    SUPERB PERFORMANCE! This ride is not for everyone! This masterpiece song is a gift for the intelligent and artistic audience. Love the lyrics, an excellent choreography, loud music must be heard, love the elements from Glagoljica- the first ever written letter in Europe created by Croats. Tractor, to my comprehension is the invitation to go farming, because soon we'll all have deficit in food supplies due to catastrophic weather conditions. Let's buy tractor and go farming instead investing or going in a war. Bravo LET 3 ❤❤🚜🚜👏🇭🇷 Peace & Love to all

    This is my text on Croatian Wikipedia about the song -- Mama ŠČ! is a song by the rock-punk group Let 3, which won at Dora 2023 held on February 11, 2023 in Opatija. The song will therefore represent Croatia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 in Liverpool. According to the authors of more than 100 reactions to the song published so far on UA-cam, the song is amazing - a spontaneous, organic and compact amalgam of metal-rock, children's (nursery) rhyme, punk, classical opera, psychedelic music, marching, slet (mass games) music, with a concrete reminiscence of chaotic Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, with elements of pop and even dance music.
    It is already clear that it is the most original song of this year's Eurovision Song Contest, and one of the most original Eurovision songs in general. According to the comments of numerous listeners on UA-cam, it is an art song with a strong message, but also a parody. Let 3 complemented the ingeniously composed music with great choreography and stage performances, so many commentators on UA-cam point out that it is immediately clear that this is an original masterpiece, which will undoubtedly be noticed and remain prominent in the annals of the Eurovision Song Contest.
    The words of the song are cryptic, and they mention the mom who bought a tractor, the mom who a moron, a small vile psychopath, armageddon-nona (grandmother), and they end-up with the line: "mom, I'm going to war". The meaning of the word "ŠČ", which is repeated after each verse, is particularly mysterious. The song is intentionally allusive (because Eurovision songs must not have any political message), and has a fluent meaning. Her interpretation is greatly helped by the fact that the main vocalist, Prlja, with make-up resembles Hitler from Chaplin's "The Great Dictator", but also wears a Stalin`s mustache, and it is clear that this is a parody of all the "little vile psychopaths, crocodile psychopaths" who push humanity into nuclear war ("armageddon"), symbolized by missiles carried by a bald man with the word "Njinle" (an anagram of Lenin) written on his forehead, although he is actually dressed as Rasputin, which represents an additional transition of meaning and performance into the surreal and the counter - reasonable.
    The tractor mentioned at the beginning of the song probably refers to the tractor that Belarusian president Lukashenko bizarrely gave as a present to the Russian president Putin for his 70th birthday, and which - given that Russia finances Belarus - Russia bought to itself.
    The word "mama" (which bought a tractor) therefore means Mother Russia , and it is also symbolized by the double voice, i.e. the letter ŠČ, for which there is a special sign in the Russian alphabet (Щ).
    "Mama ŠČ" therefore means Mother Russia, although the song is not anti-Russian, but anti-war, because it "trolls" i.e. mocks and/or ironizes (with make-up, costumes, choreography, words and music) all those (both Hitler and Stalin) who, for the sake of the pleasure of their own domination, turn the world into a private playground of war, the price of which must be paid by the "little man".
    The words "moron" and "psychopath" are therefore based on all those who start wars, as the co-author of Mrle confirmed in his interview on February 16 on Bosnian television, and not only on Putin, as stated in most media, although the allusion to him is perhaps clearer than others.
    The song immediately delighted the majority of the audience, and won overwhelmingly at Dora, although there are also those who react negatively to it, so it is clear that it does not leave anyone indifferent. This was obviously the intention of the authors, more than winning the competition.
    Despite this, some "Mama ŠČ!" already see as the winner of the competition, which largely coincides with the bookmakers' predictions.
    WIWIBLOGGS, a specialized portal for Eurovision, has published the results of its poll on the favorites among the 15 songs selected so far. The first place was taken by Let 3 and their song "Mama ŠČ!".
    31,437 people participated in the survey, and “Mama ŠČ!” won the first place with incredible 53.99% of votes (16,974 votes).

    Every masterpiece has a much deeper meaning. This is not a song for every ear or every mind. At first glance it looks stupid, but everything, everything has a hidden meaning: the singer's clothes symbolize a general whose clothes and conscience are stained with the blood of the victims; a singer in a black mantle-a church that supports the war, that's why he has 2 rockets in his hands. The sound and text are reminiscent of a children's song - the dictator is like a child who perceives the world as his toy and says to his mother (Russia or any other country): Mom, I'm going to war! Then the children's song ends and war chaos ensues. Because war spares no one. Neither the dictator, nor his people, nor those who defend themselves. Krokodil in Russia is the name for a type of drug that destroys the mind. That's why every dictator is a crocodile psychopath. etc...etc...That's just a small part of the explanation. It's hard to explain everything. For example, why does the general (singer) take off his clothes at the end? When he takes off his clothes, you can see his nakedness, he has nothing but his uniform, he is empty. But it also shows that he is only human too. As they say in Croatia: He is also bloody under the skin. That means - he is vulnerable. And he will end up like any dictator.

    Artists react to war. Before WWII Charlie Chaplin made movie. The Great Dictator. Look at Globe Scene, with sensitive music.
    This is at the same track but more up to 21st cent . It is part of future anti-war rock opera. Every scene has several meanings. Eurovision is perfect platform for artists.

    Deep explanation of the song:
    "Mama kupila traktora🚜 ŠČ"
    "Mother bought a tractor🚜 Щ"
    (Mother = Mother Russia)
    (Lukashenko gifting a tractor to Putin for his 70th birthday, also Belarus is a popular tractor in Belarus which means that 🇷🇺 bought 🇧🇾)
    The Cyrillic letter Shcha Щ was derived from the Glagolitic (Croatian script) letter Shta Ⱋ. Also the sum of letters Š and Č gives Z (25+4=29) in Croatian alphabet, and Z is a military symbol used by Russians to mark their military vehicles in Ukraine.
    "Trajna-nina armagedon nona"
    (Trajna-nina - Permanent sleep in Croatian)
    "Trayna-nina armageddon granny"
    (Nuclear armageddon threat)
    (Since mother is Russia that makes grandmother USSR)
    "Mama ljubila morona ...ŠČ"
    "Mother was kissing a moron ...Щ"
    (Mother Russia electing a moron (Putin) to be president)
    "Whole alphabet in reverse: Ž(Ж/Ⰶ), Z(З/Ⰷ), V(В/Ⰲ), U(У/Ⱆ), T(Т/Ⱅ), Š(Ш/Ⱎ), S(С/Ⱄ), R(Р/Ⱃ), P(П/Ⱂ), O(О/Ⱁ), Nj(Њ/Ⱀⰺ), N(Н/Ⱀ), M(М/Ⰿ), Lj(Љ/Ⰾⰺ), L(Л/Ⰾ), K(К/Ⰽ), J(Й/Ⰺ), I(И/Ⰻ), H(Х/Ⱈ), G(Г/Ⰳ), F(Ф/Ⱇ), E(Е/Ⰵ), Đ(Ђ/Ⰼ), Dž(Џ/Ⰴⰶ), D(Д/Ⰴ), Ć(Ћ/Ⱋ), Č(Ч/Ⱍ), C(Ц/Ⱌ), B(Б/Ⰱ), A(А/Ⰰ)"
    The reverse part of the song represents going back in time and repeating the same mistakes from history (not learning from historical events).
    "Mama, mama, mama ja se idem igrat"
    "Mom, mom, mom I'm going to personate/roleplay"
    (Putin is going to personate or roleplay as Lenin and/or Stalin)
    "MAMA, IDEM U RAT!"
    "MOM, I'M GOING TO WAR!"🇺🇦
    "Onaj mali psihopat"
    "That little psychopath"(Putin)
    "Mali podli psihopat"
    "Little vile psychopath"(Putin)
    "Krokodilski psihopat"
    "Crocodilian psychopath"(Putin)
    (Crocodilian as in enormous/huge/massive, basically the complete opposite of little)
    (Krokodil is also a drug in Russia stronger than heroin)
    (Also also reference to Boris Johnson calling Putin a crocodile 🐊)
    Psychopath is a person affected by chronic mental disorder with abnormal or violent social behavior.
    Meanwhile vocals in the background:
    "Mama ja idem u rat, rat, rat, rat"
    "Mom I'm going to war, war, war, war"
    "MAMA, IDEM U RAT!"
    "MOM, I'M GOING TO WAR!"🇺🇦

    War is chaos and this is an anti war song! There are references to Putin but it stand for every dictatorship and people who have power and kick your life in chaos in a second and you don’t know what happens! The tractor can stand for putins gift but you can interpret like the tanks and aircraft’s who dictators love to buy and feel more powerful! The moron is that mother ( land ) loves the wrong politicians! Than the chaos scenes in the song where he rise his voice and in the background you can hear like in soviet times chorus of military is the war startet and the effect you ask you self like in the song what the fuck is going on! He sings mama I’m going to play I’m going into war! The little evil psychopath is the dictator… now is Putin one of them! The crocodile psychopath stand that this kind of people don’t have any empathy! In the background is a popular drag queen dancing stand for the army behind them. The people around him are his marionettes. The bomber man is NjinLe (Lenjin) but looks like Rasputin this is the father… tradition of autocratic government… and always the same… if you we will send bombs to ya we are stronger bla bla bla. The roses in his naked asses stand for that they give a shit of peace even if they say they just want peace. oh and they are all like drags and have Make-up es for a sign that minority’s are the first who will be in danger (the inner enemy) and we all know how homophobe Putin and like him are… there are so much more metaphors but I hope you understand it right now better! ;)
