This bish is a buzzfeed quiz 

Just wanted to thank you for convincing me to buy this. I got it signed in 2015 during the crybaby tour and now they are going for $350+ for used copies. An icon truly 

Awesome, update me when you do!
 
And yep, $15 plus shipping. I was so relieved when I found it because people are charging crazy stuff for it just because it was a RSD item.

I would be here for that, I imagine it would have a similar sound to Test Me and Teacher's Pet
 
And maybe this rock sounding version of Rough Love that she performed live in 2013
 

So sweet of me to put her on the map, praying for her infinite blessings

Hi all, 
 
I just wanted to let you know of some changes that are going to take place later today (about 12 or so hours from now.)
Some of you may remember I posted this message before a couple of weeks ago after a previous site crash, but it was removed within a half hour along with any other posts that had been posted in that time frame. Basically, I tried to upgrade the server without updating the site first and it didn't work, so I had to revert it. Let me delve more into that - 
 
Essentially, LanaBoards's current server isn't stable enough to continue using. We just had another crash Saturday night following #AugustLeakFest due to traffic, and those sort of crashes are going to continue to happen during high traffic times on our current server. Obviously, we can't have that happen especially with COTCC coming up; however, in order to upgrade to a larger server, the forum script software has to be updated. Otherwise, it will not work properly as I discovered a couple of weeks ago.
 
A few times in the past, I've asked users and set up a poll to see if you all wanted me to update the forum script. Each time, the result was pretty split or with a slight majority in favour of keeping the current forum script that LanaBoards has had since its start in 2012. Now, I have no choice but to update it anyway.
Later today, in about 12 hours or so, Melly and I will be updating the site and then upgrading the server.
 
 
Here's pretty much what you need to know:
- The site will be offline for a few hours while this updating and upgrading occurs. I don't imagine it will take too terribly long (and I sure hope it doesn't), but it could be a few hours. I'll be posting a notice on the site hopefully around an hour or so before it goes offline, but I would highly recommend you all to follow the @/LanaBoards Twitter if you're not already, as I'll be posting updates there while everything is taking place to keep you all up to date on what's happening.
- Things are going to look a little different. LanaBoards has not changed much aesthetically aside from era theme changes over the past 8 years. This is because the same forum software script has not ever changed, but it's so outdated and now causing some problems. I'm still going to be using the same forum company's template, it's just going to be their newest updated script. So it won't be too drastic of a change, but there may be some minor aesthetic & functionality changes here and there. 
- The theme will have to change (yay, finally, I know.) Now, the problem is I have no idea what the site layout is going to look like after the update. I have a brief idea of what it may look like, but I cannot start designing a theme until the update is complete so I'll know how to design it to match the new layout of the site. So, for a few days after the update, we may have to have a simple temporary theme until an actual one is completely designed. I'm working with some other talented users to hopefully design themes for both NFR & VBBOTG, and I'm also going to try to redesign the current LFL theme to fit the new layout as well. I may also go back and redesign some of the themes for other eras (if/when I have time) and feature a list of themes where users can decide which one they would like.
- You really have nothing to worry about! (hopefully, if nothing goes terribly wrong!) All accounts, posts, threads, etc. will remain in tact. Again, the only thing different will be minor aesthetic & functionality changes in the site's layout as I mentioned above. It will pretty much stay the same LanaBoards that you all know and love (& hate sometimes) since we'll still be using the same forum template, but with a sleeker, more updated layout and design.
 
 
Please let me know if you all have any questions or concerns. I'll post a message to this thread as well as in the Status Updates letting you all know before we go offline, but again I would strongly recommend following our Twitter page for updates while we're offline. 
Thank you all so much for your support and cooperation in this!
 
All my love,
Elle xx

Thread for the iconic baby legend, if you see this post like it hehe

I just gotta say I really love this record. Her unique vocal flourishes really grew on me and now I can’t get enough of her siren songs

I just gotta say I really love this record. Her unique vocal flourishes really grew on me and now I can’t get enough of her siren songs

Because no one is even taught that in history in her major markets. I just read up about it for the last hour.
 
Expecting anyone to know about this enough to have an actual discussion about it is an extremely tall order

Seeing Good in Bed near the bottom of everyone's ranking has me reevaluating my music taste

I think Class Fight is the worst song on the album, if not her worst song in general, with lyrics like “Kelly had a fat ass and trouble was cooking” and the repetition of “for the throat” is so fucking annoying, the “for the throat” bits could’ve been filled with a whole load of other lyrics but she just repeats it over and over and over and over and over and over...

Same. It's like the only artist I've ever seen her specifically mention lol

it's confirmed to be lovely peaches.

I can't get over Door jgkflsj I've listened to it so many times and my cousins even made me go on a Caroline Polachek rehab as a joke because I spent all day listening to Door over and over. I tried to stop listening to it so much because I was scared of overplaying but... no, I can't get tired of it

I guess someone is campaigning for Worst Taste

sometimes I listen to EH & watch the old music videos and it really gets me emo as fuck
like I love marina's recent stuff, I love how she looks and everything but she was REALLY at her peak during EH, totally sucks that it was "all just a character", like the blonde hair and the heart on the cheek was such a fucking LOOK. I wish she wasn't so detached from that era, imagine if her next 2 albums had been on that level... she'd truly be one of the biggest names in pop rn
there isn't a single person who was around 2012-2015 who didn't adore marina, and now....   
I just wanna see our girl pull through with another incredible era....

Love and Fear would've been AOTY if it:
 
-Wasn't generic
-Had a better, inspired and deep lyrical content like on her previous works (I'm sorry but the lyrical content on this album is mediocre and bad. I'm really disappointed with Marina because she's an amazing songwritter)
-Had better visuals (They're kinda basic)
 
It's overall a good album but... This isn't the Marina I originally stanned

This album sounded four years too late when it was released but I bopped to HH every now and then. It remains the only song on this I can listen to without thinking about how terrible the rest of this bland, flavorless project is. The problem isn't even her voice or melodies.. it's honestly mostly the production and dime a dozen lyrics
