okay so after listening to the leaks for a while… i sort of high hopes for the album? i definitely don’t think it’ll be worse than L+F or ADIAML. they’re very boppy. besides that one… faux balkan turbo-fulk toy box mess 

 

i feel a strong six to light seven from me. i predict my ranking to go a TFJ/FROOT > EH > M6 > ADIAML > L+F kind of way 

It was only snippets no ? 

Also is I’m not hungry being released soon ?

Ngl while I don't like butterfly I feel bad for marina after seeing that video of her on reddit looking sad.

Nothing can be worse than L+F, I fear. 

 

Snippets do sound good, but I'd just rather wait for the album to be revealed and released because having hopes for Marina's music can be a hit or miss. I remember having hopes for MW and boy, she delivered, whereas Butterfly is a grower, but it definitely not one of her best songs. 

 

But if this gives you all hope, I know some insiders have said Butterfly is her worst single pick so far, and honestly, I believe it. 

 

I kinda think Marina released this one to draw some new fans and earn more streams since Butterfly sounds safe and GP-friendly. In fact, it did better than HMH and MW, so I hope this was just a small mistake and get the best of the best soon 

i think it’s just one of those many common times artists release horrible singles while the rest of the album is good. at least i hope so

midnight and INHA still isn’t on spotify… oh brother…

the reworked version of inha sounds a lot like savages. liking the heavier drums but i feel like i cant hear that addictive main chorus synth as much. she sounds great

That was my point. Don't get me started on saying about critically acclaimed artists when all critics trashed Lana in early days and just have realised their mistake when suddenly she started collaborating with the specific nerdy guy from the industry everyone works with. Lame af. Oh and critics hated EH with passion.

 

The snippets sound great! Except for this Lazy Lazy Parasite I really hope gets ditched. I found myself hearing I <3 u in my head yesterday at night. I love the baroque pop influences, sound so promising. Violins on a Marina track, like hello? We need a next single now!

[ultrablvd 49,151]

the snippets lowk eat farrr more than i thought they would based on some of your reactions 

[Embach 51,159]

not gonna lie, i love you with those violins reminded me of clean bandit, i'm so sorry  but it doesn't mean i didn't dislike it, i actually really loved the violins. i didn't like the beginning though, unless the snippet was edited, i was surprised to hear pitched vocals again

[vrtvie 2,426]

The energy on Energy the song reminds me of golden days of her collabs with Greg Kurstin. Power & Control, Living Dead, Sex Yeah - golden days

it’s just an observation? Marina has pretty much become a laughing stock. There’s a new viral tweet making fun of her every other day, and even her OWN fandom tends to be split and critical posts garner a lot of support which usually never happens (especially on Reddit)

 

I am simply saying that there must be a reason why her fandom has turned on her so much. Even in this own thread my “hate posts” frequently get likes so clearly I am not alone in this.

 

i am simply saying that the quality of her music has objectively gone down and it’s a fact! And I don’t know why some of yall like to pretend it hasn’t

You do realize this makes Marina look worse and not better right? You are acknowledging that critics used to be misogynistic (which is true) but now that music criticism is much more favorable for women, to the point that Lana has gotten best new music TWICE in less than five years, Marina still can’t keep up. isn’t that crazy?

My problem with your "opinion" is how you got the nerve to call Marina an "ill person" based on pure suppositions that aren't even worded correctly. Marina got dragged for saying that you have to be mentally to be a cop, and yet you're having the fucking nerve to call her ill because her music isn't good for you anymore. That's not even a constructive opinion, it's just pure hate and also hypocrisy because you're mentioning her attitude on social media while you're saying even morse worse stuff. 

 

I couldn't care less how frequently your posts are liked. I'm sure you're not the only one here who loathes Marina for the most stupid, impulsive and senseless reasons. Pathetic.

because she literally said so? dont piss me off hoe

 

https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/marina-chronic-fatigue-syndrome-1234787539/

 

she revealed herself that she was diagnosed with one of the WORST chronic illnesses known to man. 

 

Quote

I’ve had symptoms like deep fatigue, numbness, tingling, brain fog, rashes, insomnia and a feeling of being ‘poisoned’ for so long it’s been hard to remember what healthy feels like,” she wrote on Instagram. “My baseline energy has been at 50 – 60 percent for a long time. Aside from a few periods of remission, the last 7 years have consisted of relying on adrenaline and willpower to push me through each day.”

“I’ve also cultivated a deeper empathy for the millions of people who live silently with chronic illness,”

 

you clearly misunderstood what i was saying cause i would never use illness as insult? mind you she uses the word illness herself lol

Funny thing that you said "I think Marina is a deeply mentally ill person", but whatevs.

You acknowledge her chronic illness in such a apathic way and assume that she makes trash music (to you) because of that. So yes, I'd say you're still assuming and use her disease in a indolent way to also express impulsive and rampant dislikeness. Once again, pathetic.
