Melanie Martinez

its kind of giving me sea shanty 

[sadness is a butterfly 5,794]

Hmmmm what is the word she’s saying? No one can leave once they merge?

 

The background sounds are a little Cry Baby esque 

 

but it sounds interesting…

[a banister 647]

so this is defenitely a snippet of track 6

[sadness is a butterfly 5,794]

Soooo how many distinct tracks do we have snippets of at this point?

I think she's saying "no one can leave once they emerge", probably talking about the portals or rebirth in general. And yeah, I wish she would ditch the xylophone/toybox sounds for this one but still it's a nice snippet.

better than K-12 sounding 

[13 Bitches 2,585]

the new snippet is possibly my least favorite so far 

[BowOfLove 602]

It's a cute album track. Would like to listen to it in HQ tho. Waiting for Melanie to post a video of her with 4 eyes in the wilderness and track 6.

[dollanganger 4,657]

we're getting K-12 Two: Electric Boogaloo arent we 

[CoochieSwirlC 2,026]

Please don’t tell me she scrapped songs like N&T, Garden, Sirens, or Fingers Crossed for shit like this lol

[hotshot2am 17,965]

It gets recognized as as track 6, timestamp 0:42 - 1:19.

 

Also this is the first track that's shorter than 4 minutes, overall duration: 3:04

 

Disclaimer again, they could register the songs with the wrong duration so this isn't confirmed.

[missanthrophocene 1,672]

err this sound is so predictable from her… this honestly sound like the formula Sub Urban and Bella Poarch been repeating every damn song, chorus + post-chorus with overlyproduced childlike xylophone music box beat, frustrating  

The only snippets that sound fresh and distinctive from her old sound to me so far been Death, Track 2 and the hatching

[blind angel 59]

it's giving bella poarch

The Void snippet that she posted to her IG is the strongest so far, IMO. Track 6 snippet is cute but sounds dated, kind of 2015 dubstep-ish. Hopefully it's just that one bit of the song.

Agreed, I thought it sounded very dated too.

 

I am concerned that these lyrics are really doubling down on the whole theme she is going for,  similar to the K-12 commitment to a theme over everything else.
 

Pray for TV and N&T, I fear their lyrics are too relatable for this record

Unfortunately she's stuck on concept albums, so we're stuck with them too. I don't mind thematic lyrics, but corny lyrics that make no sense outside of some hamfisted theme aren't it for me

like the vibes of this snippet too. this promo strategy is so weird yet cute. can’t wait to listen to the FULL songs to give my opinions

it's weird that she had to cut like half of the movie due to budget but somehow kept stealing a tampon from a nurse or talking about marijuana like that helps the plot in any way?

everyone HAS to know crybaby was a 420blazer 

I'm pretty sure the past lives conversation was supposed to be Portals foreshadowing (along with the whole Lilith thing) but she just had awkward writing with the AHS reference and then diving into a tangent about weed

[missanthrophocene 1,672]

i’d take the sound of one night i saw a frog on a log and he spoke to me so magic so dark rabbit woof woof chirp chirp over track 6 easily
