AllForYou 1,692 Posted May 13, 2023 it seems like charli tried to patch things up a few times, she even asked marina on a remix (publicly on twitter) and got ignored so… 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
howtobeaheartbreaker 1,095 Posted May 13, 2023 It's very interesting to hear the discourse about Marina being political in her music because it feels like most people mark it as a distinction that happened somewhere later into her career, but I felt like one of the things that astounded me about her sound back in the early 2010s was her outspokenness. For me personally, I think what's changed is that her lyrics feel so on the nose nowadays. Electra Heart is an explicitly feminist album, and TFJ is very critical of popular culture in the West (and how that affected coming of age of a millennial woman). It feels almost as if her life has ran out of the drama that fueled EH/TFJ, and she has to now draw upon those impersonal experiences in her songwriting to make vague statements about the human race and far away countries. FROOT was a good album, and L+F was kind of faceless, but both albums feel like she held back as a means to prove (perhaps to herself?) that she's no longer that crazy girl wearing the blonde wig, masquerading as a Stepford wife. Ancient Dreams on the other hand felt like an attempt to recapture the drama of her earlier career, though that felt very transparent and it didn't quite meet those expectations. I think that the best thing for Marina to do is surround herself with interesting people and experience life at its fullest, and that's when we'll get music that reaches her early days. I truly believe that Marina's career could re-peak again, but that's up to her. She's seemed to have settled down, so I'm expecting the best we'll get is a cute bop on a mid album here and there. That's fine. After the pain she went through that fueled TFJ/EH, I don't blame her for safeguarding herself. Though sometimes I do fear her insecurities have burnt bridges (cc: familiar FROOT)... 19 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tana Mongeau 4,985 Posted May 14, 2023 On 5/3/2023 at 5:23 PM, AllForYou said: agree! I think she really does care but tweeting stuff like 'you have to be mentally ill to be a cop' after hearing about something like george floyd is so tone deaf, especially when she wants to be a mental health advocate too. imo what doesn't help her is she never tweets any charity links (she actually has a charity of her own!!) but she'll make political songs, vs someone like charli who doesn't sing political songs but had a load of lgbt+ links pinned during pride month. it comes across like she wants to profit off the songs but not actually be political, like going to the hotel in man's world after it was released like it was no big deal. where's jess when we need her 0 Quote what if the cockroaches have psychedelic pussy?

Anonymcomenter 4,675 Posted May 15, 2023 Marinas recent poetry it’s givin 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AllForYou 1,692 Posted May 15, 2023 it’s been 2 months since her last poem, not sure if I’m glad or not… I would like to see her thrive again even if this thread seems like I don’t. her last poem was better than the first though still had flaws, and she’s always picked questionable singles so I thought this might be the case with her poetry too. I think she’s just living an LA life and trampling wildflowers and not caring (yes she said there was a patch of dirt but that was probably made by previous visitors trampling the flowers for Instagram) 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
