Ukraine UKRAINE 2021 - Go_A - Shum

[escYOUnited]

А в нашого Шума зеленая шуба
Дівки гуляли, шубу порвали
Сію-вію, сію-вію конопелечки
Сію-вію, сію-вію зеленесеньки

Гей нумо-нумо заплетемо Шума
Шума заплетемо, гуляти підемо
Сію-вію, сію-вію конопелечки
Сію-вію, сію-вію зеленесеньки

Гей заплетися, Шуме, заплетися,
Зеленим барвінком та й застелися
Сію-вію, сію-вію конопелечки
Сію-вію, сію-вію зеленесеньки

А в нашого Шума зеленая шуба
Дівки гуляли, шубу порвали
Сію-вію, сію-вію конопелечки
Сію-вію, сію-вію зеленесеньки

Гей заплетися, Шуме, заплетися,
Зеленим барвінком та й застелися
Сію-вію, сію-вію конопелечки
Сію-вію, сію-вію зеленесеньки

А в нашого Шума зеленая шуба
Дівки гуляли, шубу порвали
Сію-вію, сію-вію конопелечки
Сію-вію, сію-вію зеленесеньки

Гей розплетемо, Шума розплетемо
Шума розплетемо, гуляти підемо
Сію-вію, сію-вію конопелечки
Сію-вію, сію-вію зеленесеньки

Гей нумо-нумо розплетемо Шума

Few days ago I went to a sort of family event and we had some dancing going on after a few drinks. All of a sudden my cousin played Shum (followed by Loco Loco) and everyone started dancing like crazy screaming 'sejo sejo sejo sejo'. I was shocked and amazed.

 

[AlekS]

Katya announced 2-3 festival dates in Poland in August.
1 more date in Belgium in September.

They will perform at the Independence Day concert on August 24 in Kyiv.
+ numerous dates in Ukraine.

Performing with the orchestra in front of 60 000 people at the Olympic Stadium. She injured both hands the night before, so she was on painkillers:

Polish dates were screwed up by rain, so organisers offered a smaller clubs which were packed till the limit.

Tienen was awesome.

They included Tserkovka to the tour set list

@AlekS When is the studio version of Rano out?

 

[AlekS]

^ No idea, but they've been to the Universal office in Warsaw this Monday.

I am on House of Cards marathon now and OMG, just realised Kateryna looks like Claire Underwood (Robin Wright) .

They have the same no-nonsense aura too

Is there a reason for the song title change?

 

[AlekS]

Is there a reason for the song title change?

Maybe in order to avoid confusion with another song of theirs called "Rano ranen'ko".

But the main reason be like:
Rusalka (mermaid in a human shape) is a prominent mythical creature in our folklore. In Russian folklore it's an evil creature that drowns men. In Ukrainian - it's a nymph, a lost soul of a young woman who died a tragic death, that lives in the water/forest/field, sexy and frivolous, likes to have fun & she can tickle you while you're swimming and can accidentally drown you. She's a goddess of spring, water and harvest in pagan culture, but christianity made her look evil (obviously christians tried to destroy pagan culture). Rusalkas arrive into the human world on the Pentecost, at night ("Rano" means "early" ) wearing the same clothes they were buried in (white dress). Usually in May, they stay for a week. When I was a kid even my grandma told me "don't swim, don't come close to water, especially after dark"

People (usually young women) hang clothes outside as a symbolic "gift". They also ask rusalkas for good harvest & prosperity. In the end of the week people visit a cemetery and leave some food there and sing special songs to thank & say farewell to rusalkas. It's called rusalka songs, it's a separate type of our folk/rite songs. Rusalka songs are similar to vesnyankas (spring songs), that's why it sounds like a Shum's sister Khorovod is another common rite for both - we dance khorovod to awaken Shum/spring, we dance khorovod for rusalkas to say farewell to spring.
If there is a song named Shum, it's very logical that her "sister" will be called Rusalochky.

ps. ESC-related fact. Jamala's 1944 demo was originally called Souls.

 

[AlekS]

Speaking of^

People dancing khorovod at yesterday's concert, Go_A performed the 1st version of Shum as an encore:

ps. She asked everyone to turn off the cameras for 1 song only - Rusalochky, so the big release (and TV performance?) is coming, I guess

ps2. People from Ukraina media holding were present at the concert. But maybe it's because Go_A are involved in their shows and not because of the next Vidbir.

 

[AlekS]

Go_A will give a concert in a gay club in Kyiv on October 16

 

[AlekS]

Go_A will come back to Vilnius, they will give a concert at the AVG arena on
November 19.

I don't understand why they haven't released the other songs yet. Or any new music. Seems like a missed opportunity. They had a lot of interest from the public throughout the summer. Would've made sense to drop new music to capitalize on it.

Because this is the kind of act that world moves past easily. That's what happened: world already moved past them. They were okay for Eurovision, but now only AlekS cares about them

They've been touring whole summer, had numerous TV appearances, and they continue to perform like 4-5 days per week (sometimes having 2 and even 3 gigs (!) in 1 day), they're already capitalizing much more than the majority of ESC performers!

+ she said they're going to speed up to release the new songs, in the yesterday's stream.

 

[AlekS]

Speaking of. By popular demand they are back to Belgium and The Netherlands:

More dates in are coming. They are in Rome today.

Do you think Rano will be out within 3 weeks? Has there been any other news from Go_A about it?
