MARINA (and The Diamonds)

[Life 3,858]

why don't y'all go beg @@Eclipse to leak the demos on twitte.... oh, wait.

[TrashMagiq 55,438]

I feel like I’ll appreciate superstar more in the context of the album, but as a single it doesn’t do much for me tbh.

[Gone user 5,368]

It’s sad that people can’t accept or admire progression. If you had any clue about music whatsoever you’d know she isn’t going “mainstream” or watering things down, Superstar isn’t “made for radio”, her lyrics aren’t basic, I’m sorry that she’s not dressing up like a 1950s doll and pretending she’s a suicidal teenager anymore and some of you can’t accept it but she’s a grown ass woman and she’s acting like one. It’s inspiring.

 

Sister, this comment is amazing and I love it. This is exactly what I wanted to say

[Moon River 2,365]

if a new artist came out with hh and ss (this is literally nazi propaganda but go off i guess)

LORD. 

[Thunder Revenant 20,705]

Such a sad way to degress from the lyricism of The Family Jewels to this watered down, already-aged mainstream bs.

If you have to make up for your lacking lyrics by giving tryhard-woke interviews in order to promote your album, you know you went the wrong way.

(in all seriousness though....whether you like the songs from this era or not you gotta admit the lyrics are simpler than past eras. it's extremely visible. nobody is asking her to become suicidal again and make EH 2.0 we're just asking for some complexity. happy songs can still have thought-provoking lyrics)

lmao she was invited for an interview like any other artist and she's just speaking her mind when asked several times about politics. Leave the girl alone

[cloverhoney 801]

Just accept that Superstar is basic as fuck lol.

[abombnd 6,438]

its literally a lyrically boring song and sounds like a GP pleaser

 

marina doesnt always mean the song is good

 

literally every other song she has released has been strong in the lyrical category, even electra heart had better lyrics than this.

 

its OKAY to say you don't like it because i wont be replaying it like i did with handmade heaven

[Off To The Races 2010 demo pls 19,335]

This thread is turning fucking cancer jesus

[Taco Truck Bitch 1,223]

I replaced baby with her solo version

[evalionisameme 13,542]

But everyone's calling it her worst album yet over one song... Almost all of you were praising handmade heaven and it's lyricism why don't we wait and see the album itself?

can you stop being so idiot? why can’t you accept that people have all different tastes? i don’t like superstar but it has nothing to do with it being mainstream or basic so stop acting like you’re better cause you like a bad song and we don’t. mind your business, enjoy the song, praise it, but leave the others alone if they don’t. dumbass.

[TrashMagiq 55,438]

liking a song a lot of people dislike isnt a personality trait, it doesnt make you special either

[Vulnicura 2,178]

yikes, some of ya'll are insufferable 

 

anyways, im curious to hear the rest of the album and how and if Love and Fear will have a different sound.

[Downtown Baby Doll 5,309]

happy songs can still have thought-provoking lyrics

 

Exactly! I can appreciate a cute love song, but it's just so strange to hear Superstar sang by the same girl who's given us so many incredible lyrics over the span of her career. It just seems like a filler track to me. I love HH and I still bop to Baby, but Superstar just ain't it. If it were the first song I ever heard by Marina, I'd be like, "this is the girl you guys all hype up?"

 

Anyway, as not to totally rag on her, her vocals still sound amazing. She could sing the dictionary and make it sound angelic.
