Brenna tuat's guat is a song by Hubert von Goisern that was released on his album EntwederUndOder in 2011 and became his first number one hit in Austria .

Origin and background

The chorus of the song was created in one piece, the verses were added later. According to the Frankenpost, Hubert von Goisern processes his thoughts on greed and money in general in this song . He also criticizes the events in the financial world against the background of the crisis from 2007 . He also dedicates part of the text to bioethanol , which consists of ten percent wheat and was to be introduced in Austria in 2012. He points out that wheat is burned while a great many people are starving. Another topic dealt with in the song are the corruption scandals in politics.

"Anyways woass that as god doesn't grow on the meadows, and ma's a nit can eat, but brenna did it good, but hoazen toan ma woazen and de ruabn and the kukuruz when ma long so on hoazen burns da hat."

- Hubert von Goisern : Brenna does it good

An attempt to translate it into High German (based on Konstantin Wecker in the web magazine Behind the Headlines ) could be: “Everyone knows that money doesn't grow in the meadow. And you can't eat it either, but it burns well. But we do heat with wheat, beets and corn. If we keep heating like this for a long time, the hat will burn. "

The song was initially only available as a download and has only been available as a CD single since November 11, 2011. On November 14, 2011, the music video for the song was broadcast for the first time.

In many reviews of the album, the song was particularly highlighted. Josef Gasteiger from laut.de described the song as "rousing polka rock". Stefan Franzen from the Badische Zeitung attests the “dialect rap” song “punky qualities”. Kati Hofacker from Monsters and Critics says: "Brenna tuats guat 'offers a brand new mix of rap , rock and Alpenglühn - literally - and sounds like a hit".

In the third week of placement (October 14, 2011) the song reached number 1 in the Austrian charts and stayed there for 5 weeks. Hubert von Goisern's tour in 2012 is named after the song.
