MARINA (and The Diamonds)

I think Froot is not her best album, but probably the most "timeless" one and it combines some her most defining qualities.

EH was more exciting with it's concept, yet the dark-electro-pop sound is something that did not age too well and now you really have to be in the moo for it. TFJ is her best album from an artistic point of view, but while it's great, it's also a very acquired taste. Froot is easy to listen to, yet it's also interesting and fun without being a bland sellout like L+F.

You literally 100% summarized my opinion that I’ve been trying to conceptualize in here for the past week lmfao.

Am I the only one who got tired of PtP already? The production is wonderful, her voice is flawless but I just can't seem to get into the lyrics, not even to sing along. 

Ugh :( I really need a ballad like Obsessions. I can't help but sing along everytime it plays.

Imo PtP has one of the catchiest chorus I've heard in a while. And its such fast paced like there's no way Im not bopping to that electric guitar and drums. Im obsessed with this song and can't wait for the new era.

Just a friendly reminder that Happy Loner is not on the album. :cryney2:

We still hope it is sis! Just a different title.

Definitely hoping it's I Love You but I Love Me More.

 

I can't stop replaying the piano snippet of Flowers, I hope it delivers :wub:

I love Marina and there's no real doubt that PTP will probably end up being, like...my favorite song in like two months or so (lol, at the very most) but I've listened to it maybe three or four times?? Which is very unlike me lmfao. Idk if it's her or if it's me but I don't like how I'm not particularly obsessed with it like I usually am when it comes to her tracks  :omg: Like, to me? Man's World hit me in a different way than PTP does - I do like it, and I don't have any complaints, but it's just not ear-worming it into my head like I want it to :icant:

im a new fan but after listening to purge the poison and man's world they both give off an overly political message and i'm scared if she gets into the real world stuff too much it'll sound like fake activism and people will make fun of it for being fake deep lol

 

i'm hoping for more of a variety of topics but i am feeling a bit pessimistic about it...

i don't think it comes off as fake, even tho i'm not a fan of artists being overly political its something she's been very outspoken about since the beginning of her career, she's always been like this.


i love you, but you don't understand me.

Why are people afraid that we will make fun of her for being fake deep?

 

WE ALREADY HAVE ???

 

Like do y’all not remember all the discussion about Savages and how it’s fake deep... 

 

She’s just raising the bar for fake deepness so Savages doesn’t look as fake deep anymore

Oh? So that's why Savages felt so good revisiting after Man's World and Purge the Poison in my head? :toofunny: 

I literally had no idea about that discussion lmao.

I've already pointed out how y'all criticised Marina for being fake deep yet during FROOT so it's getting really boring. Haters could even say that Electra Heart was fake deep and she just wanted to get the commercial coin lol... nihil novi sub sole. :eyeroll3:

I have no idea why people think this she’s very genuine and socially aware. Most artists don’t have the guts to be as political and open as Marina.

Not this... you can be very genuine and socially aware AND still hold terrible viewpoints/deliver them poorly.
