Dear Gael, I think this can mean "Sie ist es" = "She is it". "Ische" as a
Name is a nickname of "Luise", originating in baby language I think. This
would make no sense here.

Hartlich!

Gael and Marlou,

The language used in that music video appears to be an Allemanic variety
(which is well outside the Lowlands).

As Marlou said, *Sie isches* ['ziːʔɪʃəs] (Standard German *Sie ist es*)
means something like "She is *it*", "It's her", etc.
