"Tea Party" is a cool song by an Estonian singer named Kerli. It's on an album called Almost Alice. This album has music inspired by the 2010 movie Alice in Wonderland. The song "Tea Party" was released as a digital single on June 15, 2010. It even came with six different versions (remixes)! A music video for the song came out on March 10, 2010.
Creating the Song
Kerli said she wanted to make the song "trippy and twisted." She was really inspired by the Alice in Wonderland movie when she wrote it.
Why It Was Released
Kerli didn't originally plan for "Tea Party" to be a single. She felt her next album would be even better. She didn't want her music label to focus only on "Tea Party" if it didn't become a huge hit. However, a special remix version of the song was released digitally on June 15, 2010.
The Music Video
The music video for "Tea Party" was directed by Justin Harder. It first came out on March 10, 2010. In the video, Kerli hosts a fancy tea party. Her guests wear cool, artistic makeup and costumes. Near the end of the video, it's shown that Kerli added a special potion to the tea. This potion makes her guests turn into dolls! She then collects these dolls and puts them on a shelf.
Live Performances
Kerli performed "Tea Party" at a special Alice in Wonderland fan event. This event happened on February 19, 2010, at the Hollywood and Highland Center. She also sang her songs "Walking on Air" and "Strange." This performance helped promote the Alice in Wonderland movie and its soundtrack.
Later, on May 26, 2010, Kerli sang "Tea Party" again. This time, it was at the opening night of an exhibit for Walt Disney Studios. The event took place in Los Angeles, California, at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising.
