true I guess, but equally she couldn’t say ‘columbia are a piece of shit and have my songs hostage’ cause that wouldn’t get them back (that didn’t even work for Taylor Swift)

I think she’s using that as an excuse, I think the main problem is she made that music with columbia and now she’s left there are some legal issues (which she’s alluded too already)

I just feel like it’s risky getting that tattooed on you so early on, maybe I’m just pessimistic but I think I would wait until after the ‘era’ if this even is an era.

360_brat went from 36.1k followers to 35.9k followers, I wonder if she’s kicking people off or if they’re getting bored also someone got ‘360_brat’ tattooed on them…

but hifn was made in six weeks and the 24 hours album was made in 24hrs so obviously they’re not going to be comparable to her “polished” albums… and hifn got praised for being ‘of the moment’ not because it was ‘groundbreaking’ in any technical sense right? or is this an unpopular opinion I’ve never come across before…

me neither, but I think the part that gives 'not like the other girls' vibes is the second part of the chorus: 'girls, they never befriend me 'cause I fall asleep when they speak of all the calories they eat' just comes across as if marina is 'above' that kind of thing, but I think it's just conveyed badly and she meant it more I wish women could talk about anything else instead of talking about diets. to me it really encapsulates the late 2000s (she wrote it in 2008, a year after britney's breakdown) especially with the second verse: 'all the journos in heat write such good stories, oh their mothers must be proud, making money off your insecurity and doubt'. and it still holds relevance now, and the pre-chorus 'never meant to look a day past 30' still hits, especially when you see women past the age of 25 on social media just existing and all the comments are like 'omg you're 25???? you look so good!!' as if you disintegrate into dust past the age of 20

I was referring to this tweet and I'm pretty sure she made another reference but I can't find it, obviously on it's own I would not be like 'OMG ELECTRA HEART' as you say it's homage to 1920s film for this character and other iconic movie moments, but it's because of her own tweets I mentioned it

100% agree!! she'll sing these songs but she won't speak out on any political opinions on her platform, and sorry for bringing this up again in the case of her going to the hotel in man's world, I think that really just cemented that she doesn't believe in what she's saying. she made money off that song, got positive attention for making it and using an all female team(!!), then brazenly went to it despite the boycott. if she had just... not posted pictures of herself there then no one would have known she'd gone, but she's gotten what she wanted by that point.

considering she's welsh yeah I think she should deffo call the english out, it's not like it's not deserved. I bet marina doesn't even speak any welsh, who's fault is that? the english for trying to eradicate it. in regards to the monarchy, the majority of people in the uk do not give a shit about the monarchy and just want to be able to afford food/bills atm. it wouldn't hurt her career at all, especially as her fanbase is mostly the demographic of wanting to get rid of the monarchy. in wales, people were posting anti-monarchy/independent wales posters during the coronation, ofc that gets squashed cause the news won't report properly it in mainstream media, they arrested peaceful protesters for literally nothing before the coronation. if this was a non-white country then people would be calling it out as some kind of horrendous dictatorship. whilst we can all have opinions on american politics (and god knows it's an easy target), to me (though I'm not sure how much my non-american opinion counts) it just flops because she chose to live there. she chose to live in a country that 'fucked with the food chain' with weird tasting food and lower food standards than the UK/EU, and on top of that she has the privileged option of simply opting out with her wealth and buying organic/grass fed whatever the fuck. which many people, all over the world, do not have especially rn. edit: as she's also greek, she could shine light on that, she spoke about it briefly in an interview one time but anti-greek sentiments, especially after their economy crashed went up. she said she doesn't experience that sort of thing first hand because she looks white, but this is something she's actually experienced and seen happen to people she loves first hand.

I wonder what charli is going to sing about when she’s in her 50s

in ATAP it's almost 4am and then in taxi it's 4am just getting started so it all works out

one thing we all need to agree on with ATAP is that it is not an album closer. the first line is literally 'after the after party, we're going to keep it going'. it's the opener for the deluxe portion of XCX World

honestly I've said this before that (acting like she's a real person) I don't think electra heart is 'dead' as she's deffo the type to gone girl fake her own death but I'm not sure that I trust marina to really pull that off? the 'retro electra heart' collection or whatever in 2019 was not it, yes it had some really good ideas like the silk gown, and the pinafore was a good idea, but the lime green 'bubblegum bitch' logo? when has electra heart ever been lime green? she was so desperate for that to colour scheme to work in the L+F era. also the venus fly trap interpretation of electra heart... no ma'am, what's with the 1920s hair and brows? I know she used to jump around with the timing of electra heart, some of it was very 1950s but she called the radioactive video '70s americana', but 1920s it was not. there was one look in the venus fly trap video that screamed electra heart to me, and I know it was meant to reference the family jewels, but the 60s look gave me 'electra heart's gone into telemarketing' vibes. a subtle nod to big stars/it girls often forgotten about and left to the wayside once they got 'old'.

keep it! you're not a marina fan but a marina and the diamonds fan

never seen that one, but she runs the marinasmarilyn one (only on Twitter not the Instagram one of the same name), it was was briefly active in 2019. that’s where we got this meme from:

she initially started out with a more (pop)punk album (as you can hear from the outtakes and covers she was putting out at the time, like mow the lawn, can you please shut up, allergic to love) and was just working with patrik berger(?) in sweden(?) for a bit then she either got bored/changed her mind or the label didn’t want it and it got merged with the Sucker we know today. considering she thought whoever would be singing ‘break the rules’ was an idiot she obviously didn’t intend to go the route she went

it’s been 2 months since her last poem, not sure if I’m glad or not… I would like to see her thrive again even if this thread seems like I don’t. her last poem was better than the first though still had flaws, and she’s always picked questionable singles so I thought this might be the case with her poetry too. I think she’s just living an LA life and trampling wildflowers and not caring (yes she said there was a patch of dirt but that was probably made by previous visitors trampling the flowers for Instagram)

we can thank the ‘feud’ for one thing and that’s for bringing charlotte rutherford and charli together to do the pop 2 photoshoot

that’s because marina never says anything when she does anything problematic she just ignores it & deletes tweets if she’s called out without ever addressing it. charli’s only recently started talking about it in a more negative light and she did reach out to marina via tweet (before she started bringing this up again) to collab on a remix and got ignored so it’s not like charli hasn’t tried to be ‘nice’ about it.

it seems like charli tried to patch things up a few times, she even asked marina on a remix (publicly on twitter) and got ignored so…

I don't think anyone really knows, they broke up for a bit in the middle (2017ish?) cause huck's birthday isn't the one in party 4 u, I think (in the case of unreleased) she also makes stuff up, we don't know how much was actually ever intended for her or what was for other people

newly leaked song, it’s a few pages back with a couple of others

really want to know what she wants to achieve with this cause her followers are going up so rapidly and even if there were like 100 I really doubt they would keep any 'secrets' (finally got in)

yeah, charli was 23 and marina was 30 at the time, and when they did the lonely hearts tour Charli must have been about 20, it must have felt really weird to have your sort of mentor/big sister figure suddenly act like that. especially cause a year before they were calling each other ‘sister’ at the brits. it was just jealousy on the side of miss diamandis I fear…

idk what comment that was but she’s already got a photo on her main account using her iPhone (post partnership)
