It does feel weird for Marina to be using a trendy lowkey-overhyped sound with a random rapper attached for what from most pop girls would be considered a cheap attempt at getting a hit. The formula worked for Electra Heart (although there were no rappers to ruin that) because of the theme, her original intention to release it as a different artist separate from Marina and the Diamonds, etc, but I'm wondering how it will fit this time around. Hopefully the full version doesnt feel as calculated.

Someone Else's Baby WOULD be one of the better Marina songs if she removed the God-awful autotune adlibs from that rapper, or his presence entirely, and thats the tea

If its one of those god awful homophobic rappers are on it she can keep it. Idc how good it sounds

ok but the fact that you have them and constantly talk about them means one of two things; a) youre hoarding recordings to seem relevant or b) youre hoarding recordins to seem relevant

Radioactive is objectively the best song on Electra Heart dont @ me
 
Same with Shampain on TFJ and Better Than That on FROOT
 
 
 
Ugh can she release something 

We will unlock this again when you guys calm down.

This an emotive topic for a lot of people, so please be considerate of how other people may be impacted by this. I don't stan him or his music but honestly any death by drug overdose gets me feeling real sad and thinking about my family. Be kind to each other, please.

Entered this thread wanting to throw slight shade at You-Know-Who
 
But I'll just be respectful and say RIP, I don't know much about him but he seemed like a nice person 

May he rest in peace and if I see any of y'all shaming dude for substance abuse I WILL be going off. Shit is so difficult to go thru and if anyone here is dealing with that I hope u may recovery x

I didn't really expect high tempo smash bangers in this particular case, and I don't think a song being slower makes it automatically worse, Draw the Line is one of my favorite songs from Allie in general. I just didn't like her lyricism here, especially when that's the most prominent feature in these specific songs, rather than a nice melody or good production or something of that sort. It's kinda sad to me that Science is this amazing brilliant pop song, one of her best songs since her debut as Allie X, only to be followed up by two uninteresting tracks where 99% of the lyrics involve her blatantly describing a topic with little to no interesting metaphors and unclever rhyming. It's a no for me 

In my eyes, Simon Says was very successful in its role as a Bitch sequel and added a whole other layer of depth to the original concept while still fitting in with the rest of the tracks on its album, meanwhile NSBILA struggles to find its footing as a predictably written Downtown parody, and struggles as a song to actually progress from CollXtion II instead of sounding like a rejected demo from it that she heard one day in the car and decided it was worth releasing in its unfinished form last-second instead of taking the time or effort to update it in any way. That's just my opinion tho

I get it. I don't think Simon Says is bad, it's just that I expected something better (If you lurk before CLX II was released I was stanning that instrumental NNNN).
 
Not so Bad in LA is a great song the way it is cuz I don't really take it serioursly, but I love the weird sound + sarcastic lyrics to talk about a city that was shown and perceived to be so "Glam" and is still the core over the giant industry for movies & music. And the line "Angels all left but we'll stay". I really hear it as a strong track on it's own. Not really single material, thought, hehe.
 
AAAAAAAAAND AFTER WE HEARD SOME STUFF I'M JUST GLAD IT WAS RELEASED AND NOT WORKED ANY FURTHER. POOR SIS OLD HABITS DIE HARD\THAT'S SO US etc

Imagine thinking NSBILA is better than Bitch     

Give me that stuff that feels so pure, stamp me with your signature, I'm your BITCH, you're my BITCH, BOOM BOOM

That was a nice read. I kinda expected the album to have a "deluxe" or a change when she mentioned if people were unhappy with the final tracklist. He. He.
I still enjoy Clx II the way it really is. Solid Record.

ooh this is really interesting thank u for sharing! it’s crazy how much different it could’ve been... I can’t imagine CollXtion II without Downtown
