An anti Soviet song kids...I think it has a special resonance now amongst certain Islamic ladies that would like to drive and think for themselves again? The evil empires will fall again and again... You cannot control people!
@Sharmilka yes, she used it because it sounded good, but it IS also Russian for 'grandmother', which kinda fits in with the story in the song, about the woman feeling old...
@Sharmilka in addition to being a reference to a grandmothers it also has an alternate meaning as well... "babooshka is the kindest, most loving term of endearment one can give their main partner. Only to be used in the highest of sickly-sweet romantic situations. Use "booshk" for more casual settings such as a one-night stand."
@odaxelagniaproject Not in the song. 'Scarf' is a much better interpretation. Funny how people argue about it. You don't have to be a genius to notice the song is not about a grandmother.
@Sharmilka No, I didn't. Kate herself said it was a nonsense word to her when she used it. She must have heard it when she was younger. She didn't know what it means. And that in Russian or whatever it means 'xxx'... so what? That's my point. No one here gets it. Although it's all in that very interesting description above and in the interview.
This woman is so talented, I'm only 16 years old and already I wish this music was popular. She's very reclusive and I like that about her. Her songs have a deeper meaning and explore aspects of life that Lady GaGa couldn't do with her songs.
OK,I absolutely love the song!!! But,it makes me feel a certain way that I can't really describe...I'm slightly scared the song might make me crazy...
ze doet zelf haar cheografy ik ook les is niet leuk improviseren hoe je voelt great thanks hony
