Bassa and Sababa are Israeli slang terms both originating in Arabic, and they have opposite meanings.
“Bassa” is the bad feeling you get when something annoying or disappointing happened. It’s very close in meaning to the word “bummer” in English slang.
“Sababa” means “great!”, and is also used to describe feeling great or happy, feeling “sababa”.
Both words usually describe a casual, light feeling, but can also imply a stronger feeling, depending on context.
There is a Hebrew saying “Lakahat et ha-bassa be-sababa”, which literally translates as – to take the bad stuff (the bassa) positively (with sababa). To stay positive even when bad things happen.
Netta seeks to send a message to everyone who suffers from bullying or other bad stuff – to ignore the bad stuff, pick themselves up and just carry on. Feeling “bassa”? Try to go “sababa”. Sababa is the answer.

The extremely difficult to master art of using your body to paint a portrait by slamming yourself against canvas once. By putting painting on particular parts of your body and using various additions to your clothing you then slam yourself against canvas or a wall once, and only once to make a reproduction of someone's face.
He slammed Jimi Hendrix's face into the canvas by using a big brillo pad with tar on his chest and various paints on his stomach area. A perfect example of sarajanawa.
