MARINA (and The Diamonds)

[Anthem 1,558]

Got my Spotify Wrapped! Marina was my #2 artist, and Handmade Heaven was my #1 song of 2019! It was my #3 song for the "decade" (really just mid-2017 onward).

[Downtown Baby Doll 5,310]

Marina was my #4 artist...I had no idea I’d listened to her that much this year.

Anyways

Call me dramatic but I'm literally praying for M5 to NOT be a L+F 2.0 even though I liked it.

 

Like... It's a nice album but a Follow-Up would be so tragic

[Psychedelic Pussy 30,108]

She needs to go back to EH sound/lyricism... we DESERVE more songs like Homewrecker, Lies and Primadonna Girl....... seriously

[bartenders 1,206]

i want m5 to be just like l+f idc it was perfect 

[cranekiss 9,728]

i think she should have more funky/disco sound for her next album, she did it amazingly on froot (song) but imagine a whole album full of disco pop bangers. and of course channeling the lyricism of the family jewels and electra heart blah blah blah

I think she's best with more complex lyricism, but if she goes back to an EH-sound it will be dated and panned by reviewers. If she wants to stick with pop, she needs to help innovate and do something exciting.

Not gonna lie I really dislike the lyrical content on Electra Heart because it's way too dumb and bubblegum (Even though there are songs like BTS, F&L and Teen Idle which are one of her best written songs) BUT, the concept was really good and Marina served creativty with the whole era.

 

To be honest I just want her to make another TFJ since it's one of my favourite albums ever and I also need her to serve creativity again

 

And sad but relatable bops ofc

[VeniceBiatch 1,703]

i miss her vocals on TFJ they were so emotive and raw

 

the second verse of I Am not A Robot is ART

Someone really did forget about INHA on Spotify, no surprise.

She was in the studio recently so it could've been for INHA

Electra Heart is Marina's best written album, but y'all aren't ready for this conversation.

I've been ready for 3 years

[Charlottexseax 7,943]

Electra Heart is Marina's best produced album, but y'all aren't ready for this conversation.

Fixed

 

edit: since this sounds like the only interesting conversation we’ve had for over a year let’s have it

 

I do feel like EH’s lyrics are more polished and overall generally present better but TFJ does sound more genuine and true, even though she was spoiled and bitter at the time, and I value more authenticity, in spite of its nature, over good lyricism

 

Plus I feel like Marina shines best when her lyrical game is weird and somehow unsettling (Froot, all her MySpace demos, etc)

I don’t think we have the luxury of choosing between complex and not? Like I just need her to go back to pre-2016 Marina, whatever the outcome is

Same. I really like L+F but it isn't like, spectacular, it's just pleasent pop. I would love for her to make a more cinematic sounding album in the same vein as End of the Earth though, that song's gorgeous.

Savages' lyrics are literally better than the lyrical content on Electra Heart, but whatevs
