OMG THE SETLIST CHANGES???? MARINA ADD LIES TO THE US SETLIST IM BEGGINGG

[Elle 121,280]

Such an abrupt ending to her Q&A

 

That aside, I noticed something funny about her show the other day! During 'Are You Satisfied' she accidentally sang part of the lyrics to an old demo version of the song, and definitely noticed and was embarrassed!

 

Here's the old demo line: "High achiever, that is me! & I don't need your weed." rather than "High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free." (1:11)

 

Here's here slipping up: "High achiever, that is me! -- !!" (0:20)

Cause it’s all about you

[Bloody Valentine 844]

Will you perform No More Suckers in your upcoming shows? It's one of your staple songs in my opinion.

Yes of course. The setlist changes every leg of every tour I do. So, Suckers will be added, Baby will be added, and some other ones near with time. So, the festival runs this summer will be different and the US.

 

Oh shit... I will cry out of anger if she sings NMS at Nashville's show, that's my least favorite.

anyone else having problems with apple music changing her name back to Marina and the Diamonds?

[Charlottexseax 7,943]

Because at the time she wrote those songs she didn’t feel that way. She didn’t write Obsessions thinking “in a couple of years I’ll feel differently about this song and I won’t sing it anymore.” She wrote that song cause that’s how she felt at that time. She’s not in the mindset anymore that she was at while writing those songs, but at the time she wrote them she was. People change.

I know she didn’t literally think “I’m gonna feel different about this in X year” but it’s obviously implied. Songs like Mowgli’s Road, Teen Idle etc. Are VERY specific and no longer adhere to her reality. However, the same can be said for half of her discography

 

Like I’m not saying if she can’t for the life of her that she should anyway, but that she should af least understand how a very large chunk of her discog deals with themes that probably now she doesn’t feel her own, but those songs are the same reason why she stood out so many years ago to her fans. Like brushing them off as simply “Nah I don’t feel like it anymore” is not understanding how songs like Obsessions have a major effect on her fandom and are ALWAYS cited as the most influential

[deepseafishing 2,115]

I can understand her not wanting to play Teen Idle anymore (even if im not happy about that) but Obsessions is such a staple in her discography (I mean, that's what happens when you're her best song.) it feels...weird that it's not on the setlist.

I hope she sings it 10 times at your show

I can't wait to sob to Soft To Be Strong in Central Park!!!!

Superstar and EM are nice to work out to tbh

[Shaw 583]

Anyone here talented enogh to somehow cut out the original ‘YOU!’ And ‘i!’ From the You demo and rework the album version to include those? My ears have been begging to hear it since the initial leak

[baddisease 17,936]

It’s not good. Her vocals are worse and there’s a weird part where J Balvin makes a farting noise

 

why did i cackle at this? fuck.

There's no snippet of the 'I' part from the demo, but I added the demo adlibs very faintly to the album version.

Also reversed it and used it as a synth too.

It debuted at #5 in the UK! I thought it would do worse, great for her

[ultrabanisters 45,019]

so marina had a small session the other day which i was lucky enough to attend. it was a q&a and also an element where she sang handmade heaven on the piano whilst going through chord progressions. it was insightful and amazing to see her up close and even get the chance to talk to and get a photo with her. there's photos and the q&a highlights on there:

ALSO i just came back from the london show and i take back everything i said about the set and the setlist. it was perfect and was such an amazing night!!

[cherryblossoms 10,420]

Aw I literally love L+F

I really thought the production was gonna turn me away but I don’t even mind it honestly

Every song is so catchy to me

[Veinsineon 76,801]

The London show was so goooood. Honestly, I know everyone is complaining about it being more simple lyrics and whatever but she just looked so... happy. Her whole family was there, the setlist was really good, in real life the choreo and stuff is properly good. I'm happy for her, especially with the album going to #5. Froot debuted at #10 right?
