MARINA (and The Diamonds)

[Sucker 7,912]

What? Some people actually have already the L+F vinyl?

 

Apparently HMV sold it early when Love came out.........

[Enigmanotta 866]

The fact that this fanmade artwork is better than the og

the cover this album would've deserved if merna had the decency of adding TNWWY and PDCM to its tracklist

[cherryblossoms 10,420]

Still haven’t listened to EYL, True or To Be Human but the rest of the songs on Love have grown on me

 

Did she really have to make Baby a part of the tracklist though. It’s not too jarring but it sticks out like a sore thumb considering all the other songs have slick/modern, almost futuristic sounding production.

"Better lyrics that M4"

 

"I'm Miss Sugar Pink, liquor, liquor lips

Hit me with your sweet love, steal me with a kiss

I'm Miss Sugar Pink, liquor, liquor lips

I'm gonna be your bubblegum bitch

I'm gonna be your bubblegum bitch"

 

"They call me homewrecker, homewrecker

(I'm only happy when I'm on the run)

They call me homewrecker, homewrecker

(I broke a million hearts just for fun)

They call me homewrecker, homewrecker

(I'm only happy when I'm on the run)

They call me homewrecker, homewrecker

(I broke a million hearts just for fun)"

 

"When you’re around me, I’m radioactive

My blood is burning, radioactive

I'm turning radioactive

My blood is radioactive

My heart is nuclear

Love is all that I feel

I'm turning radioactive

My blood is radioactiveWhen you’re around me, I’m radioactive

My blood is burning, radioactive

I'm turning radioactive

My blood is radioactive

My heart is nuclear

Love is all that I feel

I'm turning radioactive

My blood is radioactive"

 

"I'm living dead, dead, dead, dead

Only alive, live, live, live

When I pretend, tend, tend, tend

That I have died, died, died, died, died, died"

 

And y'all have the dare to call M4's lyrics generic, repetitive and mediocre

Girl, you literally quoted only the chorus of each track lmaooo....why didn't you quote verses or Radioactive or Homewrecker?

 

Family Jewels & Homewrecker are her best albums & remain unbothered.

Family Jewels & Electra Heart are her best albums with no fillers & remain unbothered.

 

FROOT has a few good tracks (FROOT, Happy, Solitaire, Savages).

oh honey...

[ChaoticLipster 24,618]

For me personally, it's completely in order:

 

1. The Family Jewels

2. Electra Heart

3. FROOT

4. Love (+Fear?)

Same but for me Electra heart is No.1.

[Life 3,966]

Going on what we’ve heard so far from L+F:

1. Electra Heart
2. L+F
3. TFJ/FROOT

[BBMbby 221]

1 TFJ

2 FROOT

3 ELECTRA

4 LOVE

FEAR* TBD

[Serene Queen 4,786]

EH is her best album. There’s no denying it: they lyrics are amazing, the production is immaculate, the story aspect!

[ChaoticLipster 24,618]

Artists need to do concept albums more. It’s more interesting. I’d rather Marina pretend to be a suicidal slut again for a little while. I don’t mind. She’s sounding a bit like an old women who’s retired to a cabin in the woods lately...just very hippie and “love everything” cliches

 

Many of the new songs are slightly boring and a million songs like them exist. It’s such a flat inspired generic concept really....two albums called Love and Fear. My 10 year old sister could have thought of that. Same for Lana really, I felt “Love” and “In My feelings” were lazy. But what she lacks in song titles she makes up for in lyrics and production.

[ConstableReggie 509]

For me personally, it's completely in order:

 

1. The Family Jewels

2. Electra Heart

3. FROOT

4. Love (+Fear?)

Same for me, but the position of L+F could change once I hear the full album

 

Let's be honest TFJ will always be her best body of work

well sweetie you really couldn't get what she tried with this album. The thing is that she was sick of being act like a suicidal slut or whichever archetype she was acting. with love + fear it's more like a natural marina who got rid of all these thought and fakeness around her. I MEAN LIKE WHAT THE FUCK IT MIGHT SEEM TO YOU SHE PRETENDED TO BE LIKE A SUICIDAL SLUT but omg......GIRL..those thoughts were real to her. that's what she has been saying in the interviews from the start of love + fear.

and this album is still conceptual but you don't seem to get it and it also seems like you won't get it.

whatever go and bop your ass to electric heart songs

Honestly the sole fact that you purposefully chose these songs that do not represent the album as a whole makes me understand you don’t really have a point and are really grasping at straws...

EH deals with depressioni (Living Dead), the socialisation of women (Sex Yeah) and much more... like in terms of themes it touches on a lot more subjects than M4

[ConstableReggie 509]

Does anyone have a link to the longer snippet of Superstar demo that leaked the other day? the soundcloud link isn't working

[Veinsineon 76,886]

Would it be wrong to ask for someone with the vinyl to share the alternate version of Baby on there? I mean... they’re going to have to be shared anyway

[Black Roses 1,216]

This thread has become a complete mess. I'm seeing slander being directed towards everything but L+F which is how it shouldn't be 

[SlowGinFizzzz 15,354]

Saw this on Popjustice and couldn't resist sharing it here too.

It’s not fake it’s artistry and creating a story. Like virtually anything it doesn’t have to be based on real life. I know some of the stuff is real but it’s dramatised a lot in Electra Heart. I just don’t see much of a concept Love and Fear it’s a bit basic really and a little uninspired. I still like the songs, but many of them feel lyrically weak and stale production. She needs a better producer. Like Justin Parker she should go back to him. I get she wants to be herself from time to time, I guess her next album after this there is hope still. Love and Fear is still good but her first two albums are just a lot better to me personally, Froot was good but suffered the same with weak songs.

[KeybladeMeister 6,486]

Why can't y'all just be happy she's releasing music after a 4 year hiatus?

I heard from someone who got the vinyl early that it’s literally just the regular solo version and not special well...
