    the unicorn is a metaphor for the people of Israel, when she talks about the book and the old story that repeats itself, she means how the story of the Jewish people repeats itself. And she says do you want to test my DNA, referring to anti-Semitism against the Jews.

    I can find another meaning....Unicorn is a legendary creature, and Israel's forefather, Binyamin Zeev Herzel's most famous saying was "if you wish it then it is not a legend" meaning zionism is not a dream but something that can actually happen in real and it did. So a unicorn relates to an Israeli person, the world may see us mostly in a negative manner but we know who we are, we are not just a legend but a legend coming true and with force:).

    Unicorn is a representation for a unique figure and people won't shut her character down. This is also a reference for unicorn startup. A unicorn is a privately held startup company valued at over US$1 billion. So in other words - unicorn represents success, Especially in Israel which is known a startup country.

    In Israel, a unicorn is "unique in terms of success". powerfull. term that is used mainly in the high-tech, start-up and financial worlds. You hear someone say a "unicorn company" he means a company whose evaluation (Evaluation) is over a billion dollars.

    I'm an american Israeli (and a moroccan jew like Noa) born in israel, moved to the US. My family is believed to have been kicked out from Israel to spain to morrocco and my parents moved back to israel when they were kids when this became possible. I can see why the unicorn lyric would sound weird. But listening to the rest of the lyrics, it makes sense to me. My takeway from it is the perseverance of israelis and the jewish people. We have gone through pogroms, dhimmi status, the farhud, and exile from muslim countries, the spanish inquisition and countless others for mizrahi/sephardic jews. For ashkenazi jews it's the holocaust. Now that we are finally back in our homeland and have a strong nation after thousands of years of being treated horribly, we now deal with people slandering our reputation, saying we are white european colonizers and that we did not come from the land of israel. This is what I got from her saying "Hey, do you wanna check my DNA?" basically to prove she has levantine blood from the land of judea and sometimes as israelis it feels like nobody is on our side. The world isolates us often and makes us feel alone and that we are lying about our identity. "Im gonna stand here like a unicorn, out here on my own" - Because many dont agree with our right to exist. And this part: "Don't you ever learn? That I won't look back, I won't look down I'm going up, you better turn around" is for the Israel haters. She is saying we are not going back to genocides, pogroms, and being second class dhimmis and that we are only moving forward from our past and staying strong. I could be wrong about all of this, but as an Israeli from a very similar background to her - this was my immediate takeway. Thank you guys so much for doing this reaction ❤

    Also if you pay attention to the lyrics she talks about releasing from the past, Jewish past has been very painful and mostly Jews were persecuted and killed. Release from the painful past and acknowledging the power of the unicorn, the legend that Israel is for us Jews (and all other citizens living in it who may have painful memories of their own) to create a beautiful present and future together.

    A unicorn is a fantasy creature, unique, colorful and beautiful, but it's also strong thanks to the fact it's a horse with a horn.
    So my interpretation is that she's talking to all the people that felt isolated from society because of their uniqueness, and she's saying "the power of a unicorn" meaning the power of the outcast, the power of the ones who feel like they don't fit in. She's talking about individuality. And also this video is a bit psychedelic and requires imagination, exactly like in the world fantasy, which is where the unicorn comes from

    To my dear Greek friends (specially Anastasia) : If lyrics are unclear, well I would try to help : 1. Clip was made in Poland, faces of people in clip do not look Israeli (believe me although Israelis can look different from each other in all colors, faces in clip look typically UnIsraeli. 2.Unicorn is a strong Image that can face anything bad or difficult or even traumatic . 3.Anti-racist message (specially about Anti-Semitism) 4.There is also a message about being a strong woman (phenomenal - feminine al) 5.Maybe there is a point of her being on a date but message is that "pls dont hurry so much to judge me or check upon me or come to conclusions ("call me names " " check my DNA" ) - Noa Kirel herself said it should be heard more than once in order to one be able to process it. Hope I helped. Jewish people suffered a lot from Anti-Semitism - 90% of Polish Jews were killed in WW2.

    Just for u 2 know
    lyrics explanation
    The unicorn is israel, unicorn is a word familiar with hightec companies and israel is known for its famous hightec companies.
    Israel is also like a unicorn among other countries cause its the only single Jewish country in the world.
    We are Simply asking why do u hate israel? Is it because what u have been told.. Is it because of our jewish dna...
    Is it because of history? So let us write a new one (like the bible).
    If u want to call us names dont do it... a suggestion at first but for the second time if u want to do it, i am going to stand here like the unicorn i am! strong as i am unique as i am.
    Out here on my own (refers to israel always defending itself against UN rediculus desicions)
    I wont look back i wont look down i m going up you better turn around.
    Now The total vibe of the clip at the beggining is like a thriller/spying movie, and every thing happens in another dimension.
    And the clip ends dramatically in silent ( u feel someone rubbed the song from u) its a blink for the mosad and its silent operations.

    The song is about the relations between Israel (The
    'Unicorn" in the song) and those who perceive her wrongfully as their enemy (The "You").
    To all her neighboring countries, Israel stated time and time again "We are not your enemy!" (In the song "No, I'm not your enemy")
    Also, the fact that the Jewish ppl are originated from ancient Israel ("Do you want to check my DNA?"), and not a colonial foreign power, as falsely accused by its enemies.
    As you may know, There is a vicious cycle of violence going on in our region for more than a century that we must break and change ("History caught in a loop, Don't you wanna change it?"), cause Israel is attacked time and time again ("If you're gonna do it, don't do it", ) and is forced to respond.
    The music also contains elements of the Israeli national anthem - called "Hatikva" - The hope. One of the symbols of Unicorns is Hope and Success, and also strong healing powers.
    The music also contains elements of the Israeli national anthem - called "Hatikva" - The hope. One of the symbols of Unicorns is Hope and Success, and also strong healing powers.
    Notice also the colors in the Music Video, they are very meaningful as well! The ceiling is all-red, she wears all-black (Symbols of violence and grief) and switches to colorful outfits when she sings the Unicorn parts from black & white - Those parts represent the hopeful and successful future ("That 1 won't look back, I won't look down, I'm going up").
    The fact that it's all upside-down! (Not a normal reality) They are all very symbolic!
    Hope all this helps to clarify the lyrics.😇

    maybe something helpful, in jewish folklore, there is an animal called the re’em which is sometimes translated as “unicorn” (it is actually an oryx which has two horns) and it is a symbol for strength. it’s also a symbol of LGBT culture, so maybe she meant she wants to stand out and be proud of herself in that aspect.

    A unicorn, a wonderful and special animal, somewhat imaginary, unusual. The image refers to Naa, a unique artist in the Israeli scene who started at the age of 14, and it took her a long time to reach the front of the stage, after not being accepted for a long time. Continues to an allegory for the State of Israel, unique in the world, and lonely, allusions to the Holocaust, and to the Bible - some of which I don't like as much as - Let's rewrite the book, which I think reflects a more modern view, and a comparison between relationships, to what is happening between Israel and the world. At least this is my interpretation And finally - a reference to the humanity in everyone, to the difficult situation in the world, with the earthquakes in Turkey, the war in Ukraine, Corona, and a difficult security situation in Israel - and a desire to encourage each person, who is a unicorn, unique and special, and has the strength to face all difficulties.

    First- this IS Eurovision.. like second place was “cha cha cha”…
    Second- it’s a very simplistic way to talk about strength, uniqueness (yes, like a snow flake), feminine power (a girly thing like a unicorn is portrayed so fiercely);
    And with the other lyrics- it’s talking about being powerful enough to literally change the future (or the “loop” history is “caught” in) especially together
    It’s a mythical creature that can fly and in some cultures (not necessarily in Jewish and/or Israeli cultures) it can heal, make you immortal- it’s like saying history keeps repeating itself and it’s dumb so let’s change it, instead of trying to re-write it- we’ll write a new book together, create a new and better future.
    There are some parts that I interpreted them as being about Israel and how we as a country basically have to stand alone against ‘everyone’- ppl who don’t like the way we’re talking, the world hating on us calling us names (I literally see ppl comparing the JEWISH state to ww2 Germany… it’s comparable in many ways to calling native Americans “colonialists”)
    We have to be strong and believe in our journey bc being hated by most countries around the world while constantly being at war/tensions with EVERYONE around us (obviously it’s not simple nor does it have an easy solution if it’s been going on for roughly 100 years)- it’s not for the faint of heart..
    the song also refers to the fact that “I am not your enemy”, meaning- we are not the enemy! We’re all in this shit storm together and have to figure it out TOGETHER in order for history to stop repeating itself.
    The music video is showing her on the literal ceiling, not giving a single F about ppl judging her, and very obviously NOT sharing the awkwardness her date appears to feel (I think it’s a first date but idk)- almost like she doesn’t care about how society expects her to react while on a date in a fancy restaurant, she will crawl and sing and vogue on the god damn ceiling if she feels like it.
    Yeah so that’s my take on it also I love her name it has such a nice ring to it 😂
