Bloody Valentine

The way you come to a MARINA thread to say you prefer Lana in a Lana focused forum Wow, no way, you like Lana more? Like congrats I guess? You really thought you did something here

hope ur ok is her best song imo, so good

I'm listening to PTP, Man's World and ADIAML in a loop and it's making me love this era even more. These songs go so well together.

Now I'm confused... Is it a livestream concert like in YT or other streaming service, or a normal live concert?

A livestream concert omg? Suddenly I feel 16 again when I discovered Marina and became a fan instantly.

THIS IS SO GOOD!! SHE'S BACK GIRLS SHE'S BACK!!

I'm so excited for this album tbh Is giving me TFJ + FROOT vibes and I'm so here for it

that snippet I'm obsessed

Brooklyn Baby and Love are literally my life rn

Hollywood is one of her best songs and MVs ever! I won't accept any arguments against that. Case closed.

Not when most songs on EH and FROOT are aging like milk.

First Song- Young & Beautiful Song that made me stan: Cruel World or West Coast

I hope so tho! Imagine the lyrics actually being about that lol. I'll still scream "I love you marina" while she's singing this song on her next tour. I thought it could be about Jack tho lol but I doubt it. Goodbye could be a breakup song too.

I like this! I'm doing it too. I Love You but I Love Me More Venus Fly Trap Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land Purge the Poison Man's World Highly Emotional People Pandora's Box Flowers New America Goodbye

And they even dedicated albums to each other if I'm not wrong 2017: Lana thanked in the booklet of her album Lust for Life (2017), writing "Thank you Marina - for your friendship and your art". Marina did the same two years later. 2019: Marina thanked Lana in the booklet of LOVE + FEAR (2019), writing "Thank you Lana - for your inspiring views on life. I appreciate our friendship so much." source: https://marinaandthediamonds.fandom.com/wiki/Lana_Del_Rey I think they stopped being friends way before qftc. I feel like Marina kinda ditched Lana. Who knows maybe they have different opinions on things or got on an argument and stopped talking.

I'm not implying L+F was bad because she didn't have help. What I was trying to say is that if we're gonna compare albums with her new songs, then we shouldn't be using EH. It's very unfair when with EH she had plenty of help and many co-writers compared to her new stuff where she tries to do everything mostly herself. If we wanna compare her new songs with anything, it should be with FROOT imo. FROOT as an album was great, but she still has songs there that are just like PTP, all in your face and blunt. Some examples: Can't Pin Me Down and Savages.

Exactly! I don't understand why these people are so mad at the lyrics when there's an obvious reason she's writing it to be as clear and blunt as possible. To make a statement she needs to do it that way. But okay, let's bitch about it not being poetic enough, like if half the artists these days write any thoughtful songs at all. Also I wanna add that people comparing Electra Heart with her newest songs are making me very confused, because her last 2 albums and the new singles are all written by herself. Comparing an album where she had many co-writers with albums where she had little to zero help doesn't make sense at all.

But the thing is, she isn't lying in those lyrics. Nature IS purging us slowly. I understand your situation but I'll give you an example: I'm from Puerto Rico, in 2017 we experienced one of the worst hurricanes ever named Maria. It destroyed my house, I became homeless for months without a bed to sleep. When I saw my house with my belongings inside literally in pieces, I started crying and it was very hard. The people in my country are still scared but the beaches are clearer than ever and the air feels fresh. You may think the lyrics are cruel or too harsh but it's reality. Climate change is very real and we are destroying our planet every day.

Sometimes I wonder what y'all really want from her. We complain about her being boring and now we complain about her being too much. I really don't understand. PTP is no different than songs like Hermit The Frog or Can't Pin Me Down. This is the same Marina who wrote Hollywood or Mowgli's Road and let's not start with some of her weird/messy unreleased songs.

PTP is everything I wanted from her. I really like it. The lyrics are a little bit too on the nose for me but it's quirky and crazy like TFJ meets FROOT. I rather have crazy sjw Marina than the boring and bland L+F Marina.

I agree, the album is cute with some gems in it but it doesn't excite me. Maybe I just need to give it a few more listens. Not All Who Wander Are Lost is so good tho.

That Purge song sounds so good. I was almost forgetting about her and then bang she posts a snippet of a song.

Why is she torturing us like this?

How?

I do overthink too much but I have never collapsed from it before thankfully. Do you like spicy food?
