hamartia 237 Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago Pls can we take that child voice effect thing away from producers it's giving me war flashbacks to that Remi Wolf song with the long rambly outro about getting abducted from the grocery store I think it's the skinny eyebrows and makeup that's making her look so snatched, and face tape lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
faysalaaa 3,605 Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago (edited) Why is it seen as a bad thing for an artist to have a signature sound today? Alot of her fans have been criticizing her for changing her sound the past two albums, so I think thats why she went back to her original sound Im in love with the song and video, but I do agree it shouldnt be the first single Edited 16 hours ago by faysalaaa 7 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battle 4 Ur Life 6,473 Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago I love the song, it’s very catchy and gives me a hint of Kate Bush. Smash With a Smile 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
huttont 5,084 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago I’m here for it. The vocal effect reminds me of Melanie Martinez. Not marinas best work lyrically but it’s been stuck in my head all day Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
freebit 6,145 Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago This song is as terrible as she is beautiful, sorry to say. 19 hours ago, Sneaky Oliver said: How? There’s something off about her recent songwriting but I can’t really put my finger on it I feel like since around the time she's started going by MARINA she started becoming too wordy in her songwriting instead of invoking a feeling - like, she's telling us, or talking at us (sometimes even preaching to us), and a lot of her lyrics have become very general, and not specific enough. A lot of the best songs invoke a dreamy feeling and focus on setting a specific tableau in the mind (the more specific and weirder the better), transporting us listeners. Gaga does this a lot, for a random example, in Boys Boys Boys she mentions "Don't forget my lipstick/I left it in your ashtray" you think of a sleazy fun hookup and can just smell the stale cigarettes the morning after, or Lana with Salvatore when she lists like soft ice cream, limousines, summer rain etc. you feel like you really did just have a summer affair with a rich Italian man. Shakira is great at this (I always love that lyric in Shewolf that's like "I feel abused like a coffee machine in an office"). Or Sabrina with Espresso with "I'm working late/'cause I'm a singer. A lot of fans theorize it was that class Marina took back in like, 2015 or 16 or so that messed with her songwriting or way of approaching it. It's like she just decided to start being too straightforward, and thus, boring. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoeMoe 1,185 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Great song, ruined by the baby-voice chorus... What’s fortnight Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Concertaholic 5,547 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago I love her so much and have seen her in concert 5 times but I wasn’t thrilled by the song. It sounds like an amalgamation of some of her past songs and I really wanted something new and different. However, she looks absolutely stunning in the video! And the outro when she starts going really high in her falsetto is really beautiful too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Concertaholic 5,547 Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Nevermind, it’s definitely a grower. The more I listen to it the more I enjoy it, and I’m kinda starting to live for the kitschy chorus 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Togekiss 2,410 Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Super fun and cute. A smart play for the TikTok crowd with the pitching on the chorus but it doesn’t come off as cheap. I’m impressed! building a daydream 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said she's leaving it behind and flying high (vocally). She should have used that deeper voice on the chorus instead of the baby voice 👀 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grace 353 Posted 52 minutes ago Share Posted 52 minutes ago This isn't going to make sense but I'm somehow reminded of Katy's recent comeback? Not visually or sonically but like... there's something about the way it sounds like it was plucked straight out her discog 10-15 years ago with no evolution or progression. Like trying to recapture past glory without realizing the landscape has changed so much? I dunno, its hard to put it in words how the song makes me feel. I cannot for the life of me figure out what possessed her to think this was lead single material though Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
