See Happy and Solitaire for example, yet both songs lyrically are great 6 Quote "ser bella me dio privilegios, pero ser astuta me dio poder" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flowerbomb 65,595 Posted May 8, 2021 I think you can still be a millionaire and acknowledge how bad capitalism can be, it just depends how much of that wealth you're hoarding and how you distribute it towards things. At the end of the day, artists can't help how much money goes into their pockets - it's just what happens. They get paid to sing for a living. 11 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Idk if this is good or bad. You're basically insulting her for not putting specific tracks on her own album, how is that good? See, PC's snippet was interesting but it literally sounded like every homemade demo she creates. The same thing goes to HL but I really liked the lyrics 3 Quote "ser bella me dio privilegios, pero ser astuta me dio poder" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can but it's weird to write a song about how you and your Hollywood friends are quietly reforming to destroy capitalism and then write another song bragging about how much money you have. Sure, Marina's music has always been contradictory but I get why some people might do a double take at her lyrics 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DinahLee 6,256 Posted May 8, 2021 The way this album is shaping to be worst than L+F Lyrically but at least she's... sonically back (?). I'm gonna stay away from genius and bop my head or FEEL these piano chords. That's it. Edit: Also, with the recent trend of "rereleasing" albuns just a few weeks after the debut, I can see her actually tacking Happy Loner and Pink Convertible in there and calling it a day. She always mentioned about re-releasing\putting deluxe editions out and it just never happened. Mayyybe this time. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It can’t unless she decided to hire Justin Bieber to write the album…then it would probably still be better then L&F lyrically. 3 Quote Arches are Illusions solid at first glance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
