maybe she wants to?? let her be

This, I don’t get the hype it’s cute but that’s it. It’s  just cute 

I just think the second verse of PTP is terrible compared to the first. It's like, girl you really couldn't think of anything else? 
 

her first and only three albums you mean ?

First things first, Katy’s comments about Britney’s breakdown were sick. Idgaf that her breakdown is mentioned in pop culture a lot. Doesn’t make it right. It’s not about being “woke” and it’s not stupid. It’s about having respect and empathy for another human being.
Secondly, yes you totally can compare writing about people who have killed themselves, people who have accidentally killed themselves, and people who have narrowly avoided suicide. When people think of Brit’s head shaving, literally nobody thinks of it as only a hair cut. It wasn’t then and it isn’t now just a hair cut. The head shaving was the face of the breakdown. Her breakdown almost killed her. That’s totally comparable. Writing about these things in certain ways just isn’t appropriate (imo).
same goes for this. Clearly, it’s not just a head shaving, it’s something way more raw and painful
I just wish the line wasnt worded that way. That’s all

The Britney line is bad AND unnecessary 
 
I don’t think she did it on purpose, she was just trying to comment on social trends in her own (bad) way, but it came out really weird and it’s terribly written either way 
 
 
A good comparison is the “He hit me and it felt like a kiss” line tbh
This one is problematic too for obvious reasons but unlike the Britney one it’s very poetic and elicits a very vivid and somewhat poetic image 
 
 
Like if the Britney line was good it could make up for the fact that it’s clumsy and in bad taste but it has no redeeming value whatsoever

I loved that she brought a different vision for Britney's breakdown. But I still think that she could've changed, since Britney herself doesn't like when people address it in any form.

fake ? it literally happened 

help this is just like that fake demi lovato m&g story 

I just woke up but I had a dream that marina was filming a second video for purge the poison at my local shopping mall and she was in a red cheerleaders outfit rollerskating around the place, I got in her way in one of the shots and she told me to lose some fucking weight and get out of her way , one of her crew members was like ‘that’s a bit mean’ and she shouted ‘purge the poison obese cunt!’  

I feel like someone needs to diss her on a publication before she posts; like its a pattern 

She needs to give us Cola’s sexy MILF older sister song and really tell us some more about her pussy. 
 
let us know that there’s some WHORES in this COUNTRY CLUB

What if Cocc is her sweetner, and RCS is her Thank you, next

i promise you it's not that serious 

ma'am this is a rock candy sweet thread
 
LANA DO SOMETHING

Omg not y’all writing novels about political theory. Obviously I’m not reading that. But I’m happy for you. Or sorry that happened.

an upbeat song would be great.
everyone is saying LDR is too depressing to listen to and i'm sick of it.

have u ever considered u just misunderstood the song and it has nothing to do with your trauma... 

Yeah, but unfortunately no one normally understood the meaning, especially critics who slashed her for this album a lot. A random person listening to Electra Heart wouldn't even bother to visit the Tumblr etc. I don't even think her label realised what the concept was -- remember how her manager wanted her to get rid of Teen Idle?
I agree with you and regardless of the popular opinions, this album indeed was her magnum opus. Not because of the sound, vibe or anything, but the amazing conceptualism. She's done so much research and was able to blend so many ideas using the commercial pop surface it's just amazing.

I think what I miss the most, and I’ve thought about this a lot, is that in her other albums, especially Electra Heart, she was making societal criticisms but she did it in a way that really made you think. Like the average person would hear primadonna and think “oh catchy fun bitchy pop song” and it worked that way on a surface level, but for those that really looked into it, it obviously was satire. I miss the more hidden pretty on the surface but dark deep down kinda thing. I love her obviously! I just want less in your face and more “make me think in that special Marina way.” Idk I just thought Electra Heart was so much better than people let on. She really studied women from the fifties and sixties and nailed it with these over the top descriptions of them. Not to be that fan that can’t move on from EH, but I just miss it. Marina stuck out to me because of how you could easily bop to it but you could also really analyze it. I low key think it was more of an effective way of getting a point across. Electra Heart really made me think about materialism and roles and identity concepts without saying “This this and that” Idk. Rant over! But I miss that magic charm. I loved it. I loved the smoke and mirrors of it all. I loved analyzing it. I still study that character and rewatch the videos to see if I missed anything. I just loved everything about it. It was the perfect concept album. Everyone gives Lana credit for changing alternative sad pop but I swear Electra Heart was a huge part of that too. (And TFJ, and FROOT, too.) I heard in an interview when she said “they wanted me to be more commercial so I said okay, I’ll do it, but I’ll do it as a different person.” Amazing. 
 
 
TLDR: I miss the Marina that made you think “there’s more to this than shes letting on” or “this isn’t what it seems.” The songs that could be played on the radio and no one but some people would listen and think “oh this is actually mocking people who really act like this I.e primadonna.”

um..can you be like ariel from the little mermaid and not speak please

 
but do get well soon! 

she's been talking about/dropping pics and hints about this era for so long (over a year now I think?) i'm getting SO impatient
 
WE NEED THE MUSIC CHARLEIGH! 

I like it but I still can't get into some verses (and the Britney line, that should have been rewritten). But overall, I'm enjoying it more with each listen. I get you, it felt weird at first
