Ah, yes.
Now I can divorce my husband with a really good soundtrack
It should be illegal that I laughed as hard as I did to this comment
LOL
You go girl
Agree!
As you should-
I've never heard this song before, but I like the symbolism of "babushka" which means grandmother. She's using a term for an old woman, and it seems to be a cute joke to him, but it's also how her husband sees her.
I remember reading somewhere that the author didn't know what the word meant when she picked it, she just thought it sounds nice
I have no idea why but i always somehow thought the song was about the baba yaga
@@Man-wolf- me too 😭
@@bluefox5331 Yeah apparently the Kate Bush had a friend whose cat was also named Babooshka, and she liked how it sounded. Sometimes artists do be making shit up and it is amazing
@@ButterflyScarlet I personally like to call them happy little accidents
The art:Perfect
The singing:Perfect
The cat: Perfect
Everything is perfectly balanced as it should.
I think you mean purrfect.
Hotel: Trivago
bro idek if the meme is still relevant i just wanted to 😭
You mean Purrfect uwu
the cat: purrfect
The way you sang “but how she was before the tears” was SPINE CHILLING.
Nice profile pic you got there.
Ey thanks
@@Divabunny_auhehehehhehehehehehehehehhehehehehehe you had 100 subscribers now you have 101 because of me! I’ve made the number uneven 😈
As someone who’s first language is Russian, I absolutely LOVE how you pronounce babooshka while both sticking to the “oo” sound pronunciation and yet still making it sound correct to the language!!
My first language is English, but I was actually born in Russia to Russian mother(father wasnt in the picture) so I’m trying to learn it, and that’s one of the only things I’m able to get right just about everytime
Idk doesn't seem correct at all to me. Both her and Kate make an accent on the second vowel and it just sounds weird to a native speaker (or any speaker honestly) - probably because Kate didn't know what it even means - good for her lmao. But it's not like you can change much considering that the whole chorus is structured around this "babOOshka" pronunciation.
For a non-native English speaker, your English skills are better than a lot of people I've met who speak it as their first language.
@@anna84259 considering how it has symbolism in the song, she most definitely knew.
@@Yesytsucks if I remember right, she said in some interview that the idea came from the fact that she heard the word everywhere without really knowing what it means
I think while working on the song she definitely got to know the meaning
can we conclude this woman can cover anything and make it sound like a masterpiece? good day.
Ofc we can
Absolutely
yes I concur
No hate to the oh, but this is better.
The only way we'll find out is if her next song is a Rick Roll 🤣
Imagine if Anna went on America’s Got Talent, nahhh, she’d win the whole damn show- 😩✨
Cannot agree more
✨Golden Buzzer✨
@@ellamayjuice *exactly*
She IS amazing! The only reason she wouldn't win is because she isn't deaf with advanced cancer, five hearts (all failing), etc /j
LMAO
She’s Canadian.
Babooshka (the cat), staring at Anna while she's singing this: I HEARD YOU THE FIRST 10 TIMES WHAT DO YOU WANT
Chorus backup cat pictures always appreciated.
YOU DID GREAT ON THIS ANNA!
2:16
can we talk about the fact that she named one of her cats "grandma" tho? cuz tbh, that's such a vibe
Stinky baby 😄
@@gaylordsupreme8824 I honestly wouldn’t mind a cat with the personality of a grandma. Probably a little more snuggly
I love the original, and your voice, so this is going to be beautiful.
Edit: THE CAT PICS MAKE IT EVEN BETTER
Idk if this is good or bad you don't have any comments means no bot
When she turned from a sad, tearful wife to a wide eyed angered person, I got the chills.
Awesome job
I love all the different interpretations of this song! The range is so good, how it could be a tragic fall from grace out of misplaced jealousy, maybe the husband already knew she was writing the letters and was playing along, maybe she realised at the end that she didn't need to hide herself because she was still the 'Babooshka' after all!
Or maybe she murdered him! That too! Hell yeah queen!
*[Cough]*
@{𝒯𝒽𝑒 𝒮𝒾𝓁𝓋𝑒𝓇 𝑀𝑜𝑜𝓃} *?*
Hi! Could you explain why is that she signs « grandma »?
@@soso_inhiding_8431 *Why not?*
@@soso_inhiding_8431 at the time, Kate Bush didn't know what the word meant. She just liked how it sounded and she also had a friend whose cat was named Babooshka.
Chilling vocals, stunning work!
Agreed!
I've always struggled between the constant problem of being able to sing alto and soprano years ago. Teachers would constantly sort classes by singing groups, forcing me to choose one and slowly get out of practice of the other. Anna's covers have helped me realize how to be both! Not only that, but just from listening to Annapantsu, I've felt more accepted as an alto in a world where I've only experienced sopranos getting constant praise for being more "feminine". I now have a vocal coach, a college class full of people who are always helping each other with singing, and a huge thank you to a youtuber I've been listening to for years. Thank you so much for helping and inspiring me throughout the years Anna!
I actually really relate to this. It sounds like you're probably a mezzo. I've been told that's what I am.
I could sing alto really well and then people made me self conscious about how deep I was singing. I could sing some soprano parts as well but soprano was harder for me but doable. In recent couple years I figured out how to do mostly in my higher range and my lower range is now out of practice and this channel has been really helpful about figuring out how I can do both and find the balance.
Altos gain their power by drinking the tears of the sopranos whose solos they stole lmao those POOR UNFORTUNATE SOULS. It took me years, but it seems like alto singers are finally getting more popular, especially with the revival of some older styles of music. Florence Welch is my goals.
@@madisonm.4535 I relate to it too. Girls were always confused how i had the same vocal range as most boys and I was a little self conscious about it so I had forced myself to sing higher notes and it has extended my range but now it’s really difficult to sing clearly, it’s raspy and sounds like I smoke 3 packs a day tbh 😂. I always liked being a lower echo better bc I didn’t have to strain and even in choir I used to go for lower bits with the guys but tbh I only went to choir to get out of 3 hour long science lessons I didn’t have any interest in whatsoever. I found a passion for singing tho. This channel definitely helped me find my range tho and whilst Babooshka is rlly pushing at how low my voice actually is bc I can barely hit that high note (proves my vocal range is much lower than average for a female). Everyone I know (even guys) can hit higher notes than me but I forced my voice to go lower and lower over the years so it’s all I can do now. Don’t regret it one bit tho cuz now songs are getting lower and lower in pitch and it’s great for me. 😂
@@calladricosplays Since when has an alto ever stole a solo? We’re usually just in the corner singing the same note for 8 measures.
@@yourlocalanarchylovingcatguy ah yes carol of the bells, it's that time of year. I was thinking about how Ursula literally stole Ariel's voice from the Little Mermaid lol
I love the fanart for this one. Usually, it's Anna all cocky and smiley, but gosh is that sad grimace and that clutch of the letter just a perfect representation of a woman who just confirmed her insecurities.
Also this cover ROCKS.
EDIT: also the implication that she then went and stabbed the guy? gah
The poor cat the whole time you're recording, "MOTHER YOU KEEP CALLING. WHAT DO YOU WANT!?"
Seriously she's adorable and beautiful. I love hearing 'new' music through you covers
Lol
I feel for her cat.
I know my cat would of been banging on the door and meowing as loud as they could
Lmfao omg underrated comment xD
The cat is being blessed
Excellent cover! I’ve loved this song for years. Hope there is more Kate Bush Summer to come.
My headcanon is that the singers of Babooshka and The Pina Colada Song are the same couple, but unreliable narrators.
god what a great headcannon
Ok I really like that head cannon 😂
@@annapantsu PIN THIS COMMENT PLEASE! IT'S TOO GOOD TO GET LOST!
I don't think I've seen this comment before, but I have also formulated this exact same headcannon.
Don’t mean to be rude, but elaborate?
Interesting fact the song is actually named after kates friend's cat who's called babushka.
She like the name and used it in the song not knowing it means grandma in russian
Could also mean an older lady that looks to be grandmotherly age.
"ALL YOURS GRANDMOTHER, GRANDMOTHER YA YA"
Wait… Kate’s friend’s cat is Babushka… Anna’s cat is Babushka… CONSPIRACY THEORY???
@@Gaeilge. I mean literally that is what it means. Basically "all yours - grandma, grandma, ya ya" 😂
that first "all yours" sent chills directly down my spine. gorgeous.
She wanted to test her husband
She knew exactly what to do
A pseudonym
To fool him
She couldn't have made a worst move
She sent him scented letters
And he received them with a strange delight
Just like
His wife
But how she was before the tears
And how she was before the years flew by
And how she was when she was beautiful
She signed the letter
All yours
Babooshka, babooshka, babooshka ja, ja
All yours
Babooshka, babooshka, babooshka ja, ja
She wanted to take it further
So she arranged a place to go
To see
If he
Would fall for her incognito
And when he laid eyes on her
He got the feeling they had met before
Uncanny
How she
Reminds him of his little lady
Capacity to give him all he needs
Just like his wife before she freezed on him
Just like his wife when she was beautiful
He shouted out
I'm all yours
Babooshka, babooshka, babooshka ja, ja
All yours
Babooshka, babooshka, babooshka ja, ja
All yours
Babooshka, babooshka, babooshka ja, ja
Babooshka, babooshka, babooshka ja, ja
Babooshka, babooshka, babooshka ja, ja
Babooshka, babooshka, babooshka ja, ja
I'm so happy to see Kate Bush's other songs getting some love too 🥰
I was a huge fan of this song waayyy before ST4 came out, I hadn’t listened to any of her other music
Could you recommend some?
@@micaelagordon7328 Hounds of Love and (of course) Running up that Hill is also really good. Also if you’re looking for modern music with a similar style, I highly recommend Florence+The Machine
@@micaelagordon7328 Try listening to the 'Hounds of Love' album and depending on if you like 'The Ninth Wave'(the second half of the album that was side b on the record), you can then either move to her earlier more pop stuff like The Kick Inside, Lionheart and Never For Ever it it's not your cup of tea or to Aerial, The Dreaming and eventually 50 Words for Snow if it is.
I honestly prefer this one to running up that hill
I never really sat down to understand/learn/read the lyrics of this
but you always captivate me and now im intrigued
like always
it's like what if the story in the Piña Colada song ended badly
@@rabbitkins_ first time I've heard this and same thoughts lol
This is exactly how the pina colada song would have went down
@@bearbones7913 except in the Piña Colada song they make up I thought?
@@rabbitkins_ Thats what was hinted at but realistically they would have separated when they found out both wanted to cheat on each other
would you consider doing a cover of 'only love can hurt like this'? i'd love to hear your rendition of those high notes
oh my god yes
HOLY SHIT THIS WOULD BE PERFECT
Please!!!
I can only imagine your Cat was sitting outside the recording booth thinking "Why is Mom calling me so much?!"
This was absolutely gorgeous! I'm gonna go blare it for like three hours and annoy my neighbors xD
Chills down my spine. Gorgeous voice, Vibrato on point, LOTS of emotion. Sounds like you had fun recording, and it sounds perfect. Love you Anna!
I didn't realise how much I needed this- also I've always thought that your voice is similar to Kate Bushes so i feel like this fits your voice really well and it sounds amazing but then again everything you sing sounds amazing
Anna's vocals are so ridiculously good I had to build up courage to listen to listen to this
Unsurprisingly another masterpiece, thank you Anna (and thank you for the kitty pictures, my heart is always open to more kitty pictures and break dancing Kermit)💕💕
Since no one else seems to have mentioned it, mad props to the artist! The shading is so well done and the detail is amazing! I wish more people would recognise the amount of effort people put into the artwork, it’s stunning!
Also I’ve ad this stuck in my head for days now, thanks Anna 😂 😅
Another cover with Anna's beautiful voice.
OS GATINHOS Q FOFURA!!! ALÉM DE CANTAR BEM TEM GATINHOS FOFOS!!!
Haha, video completo
Wtf outra BR
@@boicaboggins 😰vish KSDKDJEKR
Não é br, é pt
I love you 😘💕❤️ Anna
Divorcing is difficult but living alone with finding yourself better than living with someone who makes you lost
My Babcia (Polish for Grandmother) had a cat that looked like your Babooshka when I was a super young kid! Your kitties are adorable, and your singing is immaculate, as always
I was waiting for that “All Yours” and you did. Not. DISAPPOINT. WELL DONE!
It's cute and awesome that your fur baby was named after this song, Anna! Your fur babies were definitely the highlight (that artwork turning bloody and scary too!) ☺️
I have no words to express how much I love this cover, I LOVE Anna's voice
OH, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I NEEDED THIS!
You're honestly perfect for Kate Bush!
So true🥰
As if the cover wasn't a masterpiece by itself, we got the kitty pics!
Rockin' it as always, Anna. Keep it up!
💜😙
can we just appreciate how the backgrounds for the songs are always remade (unsure if it's for copyright or because anna is just super talented)
She commissions them!
@@Rumi12456 Oh that's so wonderful!
I have a hard time paying attention to lyrics in songs, even with musical theater songs, it takes me numerous listens and often lots of effort to understand what even the main theme of the song is. (I think it's because of my ADHD.) But the fact that your covers always have the lyrics written down helps a LOT!! Even just for this song, I've heard it tons of times before but until now I had no idea this was what the song was about. So thank you so much, I really appreciate it!!!
Are you a native English speaker? :)
@@yumestar19 nope. But i have the same problem with all 3 languages i speak
Как же это красиво исполнено!!!Спасибо автор за этот шедевр!
This was fun to listen to. It's always great when the visual changes partway through the song and the juxtaposition of cat pics over the "Slasher Killer Wife" was hilarious.
ONE OF MY FAV KATE BUSH SONGS!
TYSM FOR BLESSING OUR EARS~ ✨
Get this woman to number 1 On the radio for peat sake she needs to be known World wide! Publicly And not just on youtube This woman is A wonderful Singing voice of nature!!! "Shes all our's babooska ya yaaa~"
My Russian grandma listening to me playing this: AY LILLIAN TF YOU WANT 💀💀💀
this was the song me and my ex were supposed to get married to, they had to leave because of their mother. I listen to it and always think of them, thank you anna
The way I kept refreshing because this song meant the world to me a few months ago. You sound so beautiful ❤️
Well... If your singing wasn't enough, those cat pics just bought you the top of my favorite music channels list
This was amazing I NEED this woman to be my music Teacher😁😁. and also
2:17 was amazing
You should cover Bring On the Men from the Jekyll and Hyde musical! Such a gorgeous voice
Oh my gosh YES
GET EXCITED
:) SIGN ME UP FOR THAT. God that would be epic. It's just as good if not better than Blue and Dead Girl Walking from Heathers.
The cat was hilarious! Stunning vocals, as always.
Tbh usually I only watch covers of songs I already know, but I decided to take a chance and was not disappointed!!! Great job Anna!! (Also AW KITTIES!!)
As well as the fantastic singing, Katrinci’s art looks soooo good!!!
i’m so jealous of your voice
Oh my stars, chills. Literal chills, every lyric is sung like so- perfectly. I can't even comprehend how good this is, it's just a masterpiece. Thank you for blessing our ears, Anna
THIS IS A ROCKIN' JAM!! The artwork is so fantastic and perfect, too!!
Omg words can not describe how beautiful this cover is, I can’t stop listening. Amazing job Anna, you have improved so much since I started watching you!
CAAAATS!!! Both are adorable.
ALSO WOW THOSE NOTES, GIRL!! YOU GO QUEEN.
This was amazing, your voice is so beautiful. I wish people listened to more of Kate's songs other than Running Up That Hill like Babooshka and Wuthering Heights (which I hope you make a cover of). btw your cat does look like her name is babooshka
his name
@@abigailw7146 you mean the cat?
The art style adds to the singing! As well as having a beautiful voice to listen to, theres lyrics AND wonderful art! Well done Anna & Katrinci (the artist)!
This is why Anna is one of my favorite celebrity singers ❤️ 💥
I CAME HERE AS FAST AS I COULD TO HEAR THIS MASTERPIECE
2:17 AH THE CAT IS SO CUTE-
Ahhh! It's interesting hearing this version!!! I was addicted to the original as a kid, and I used the song as one of my vocal pieces during A-Level, so hearing this iteration is really interesting!
Like, not only is your voice absolutely beauteous, but the way you phrase it makes me feel like the original meaning is there, but the angle has gained a little more sharpness, like both characters are bitter, not just the wife, and the ending was a lot more tragic than "Hubby finds out Babooska was something made up by his Wife to test him before actually meeting "Babooshka"".
I'm now going to put this on loop until I've dried Every Drop of Serotonin from it, LOL. Thanks! ^w^
(also it's funny because whenever I sing/sang it, because of how little-kid me interpreted it, I was always lighter on some parts of the lyrics, to make parts like "when she was beautiful" and so on: like the wife sets up this entire thing, sour over not being able to have what they had before, only for the husband at the end to not be horrified, but to actually be like "but you're still that young self [babooska]" as he finally gets to see how much pain his wife is in, compared to the quiet rage she'd slowly grown to have...)
Mayhaps you should do a cover as well?
@@noisyphilosopherkrk522 if I had the confidence to sing on the internet? Mayhaps! /hj /lol
Oh my goodness! for some reason i'm CERTAIN your vocals have drastically improved in this one, the chorus was literally stunning!
FLUFFY SIAMESE! I love cats. Also love the song! I usually visit each video a few times... but this one stuck with me because of Babooshka and Louie.
Great song, beautiful vocals, AND cat pictures?!! If I wasn't already subscribed I'd have slammed it so hard I'd need a new phone.
Your voice >>>>>
I'll be listening to this on repeat now 🏃
This is one of my favourite songs ever and you covered it so well!
By the way! If anyone is wondering what “Babooshka” means it means grandma in Russian
the delivery of the second chorus made me want to combust it was so great!!😭
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A BABOOSHKA COVER!!! YESSSS ANNA SLAYYY! 😍🤩❤️❤️
I am literally a huge fan... I love this song so much and hearing this with your voice is so much. Your videos have helped me through so much and you inspire me to keep singing even though people tell me to shut up. Thank you so much Anna for all of your amazing videos and livestreams. You're a huge inspiration to me and many others!

the way how she could literally pull off any song- -chefs kiss 💖-
YOUR SINGING IS HYPNOTIC AHHH 🧎♀️🧎♀️
i love this so much! I've been listening to Kate since i was a baby (literally, my mom has always played her for me, just like how her mom played it for her hehe) and it makes me so happy to see more people around my age appreciating her music! :D
anna id like to let you know youre my favourite artist. ATLEAST one of your songs are on every single one of my playlists man 😭
The vocals on this are ethereal
Beautiful singing Anna keep it up!
I was waiting for this. Obsessed with this. Amazing at always Anna 😭❤️
Your covers always make my sing along, losing all shame! Outstanding, as always
One of my favourite artist covering one of my favourite songs, this is such a miracle for me! It's amazing Anna!!
I’ve been binging all your covers recently (a friend recommended me to you since I’m doing Arabian Nights as my audition song next year for a production, really enjoyed “Prince Ali”, and “Poor Unfortunate Souls” as well!), and I think you’d do amazing with
“That’s How You Know”
From Enchanted, since you have such an enchanting voice! Your voice range is very impressive, and you are such a big inspiration to me. Thank you so much for making all of these and possibly taking my comment into consideration!
Which production are you doing? Depending on mine for spring, I'm doing Sweet Child, Poor Unfortunate Souls, Kiss the Girl (The little Mermaid), Mother Knows Best (Tangled), or something from Aladdin, probably a good cut of High Adventure, These Palace Walls, or Prince Ali Reprise. (Sorry for the long list, I don't know what the production is so gotta keep my options open!)
@@youshouldwatchthis For my production I’m working with a local theatre group who will be doing the Lion King Jr.
I’m going to try out for Scar with Arabian Nights. Don’t know if this helped, but hopefully I answered your question accordingly. If you have any more questions, go ahead.
Lastly, it’s alright! I totally understand. Got to *Be Prepared* for anything.
The vocal and breathing control🤩❤️
I can't with the cats pics 🥺💜 and this cover is amazing!! One of my favorite Kate's song
Lovely song as usual but also I LOVE YOUR CATS! Babooshka looks so soft and Louie's face is so shaped!!
Your cover of this song sent SHIVERS down my spine. absolutely beautiful Anna
This amazing Anna. Wonderful singing like always! ❤
i have listened to this multiple times now since it came out. like if this was on Spotify it would be on my favorites playlist
Before I heard this cover I really imagined her singing this. It Sounds so much better in reality! And the cats are so CUTE!
I’m in love with your voice!!!!
Most beautiful version of this I've ever heard! ❤️
always a good day when annapantsu uploads
Omg you have the cutest fluff ball of a cat ever!!! And this cover was AMAZING, FABULOUS, WONDERFUL!! EVERYTHING GOOD
Another great cover!
One song that I recently stumbled upon from a fan animatic that might be up your alley is W.I.T.C.H. by Devon Cole. It's a super catchy tune!
Wonderful show, that, but what song is it in this animatic?
Do you mean the Double Life animatic or someone else used W.I.T.C.H. as well? Because I absolutely adore the Double Life version.
@@Saryana0 Pearl's character fit it do damn well
@@Saryana0 :D my people
How melancholy-ly beautiful.
Well done performance once again!
Anna you did NOT need to go off the way you did on this song!! Your voice is SO POWERFUL OMG😫😫😫😫
I love this song and I genuinely wasn’t expecting this cover
THE CATS MAKE IT EVEN BETTER
Surprised at the cover, your voice fits the song well!!
Voice, amazing. Chorus, amazing. Do I love this gorgeous masterpiece? Yes I do.
YOU DID AMAZING THE VOCALS ARE KILLING ME!! SLAY!
This is such a beautiful cover! I loved the original but you made me fall in love with your take even more! Your singing is so powerful
