I have so many found memories of this song, and even though I find (my other remaining 11) I'm a Ruin to probably be a better song, there is a place in my heart that won't replace Hollywood. This is Marina's second biggest hit in the UK after Primadonna and just like the other sadly missed the top 10 by not very much.
January 7, 20169 yr surprised Hollywood was #5! :o (Here's my predictions for the rest of the top 5, I'm a bit late :kink:) 1. I'm A Ruin 2. Radioactive 3. Oh No! 4. Mowgli's Road What I want: 1. I'm A Ruin 2. Mowgli's Road 3. Radioactive 4. Oh No! All four are stunning songs though and I wouldn't mind any of them to win!
January 7, 20169 yr 'Hollywood's slightly tired on me over time, but it's still an amazing song. This song and the video are what first drew me to her, it's a tour de force.
January 7, 20169 yr Author Oh yes, shout out to the incredible Hollywood video. n1VTcJfL7RE Dropping #4 to #1 like...

(11), Cody (10), Lindsey (10), Liаm (10), dandy* (10), Kuki Sanban (10), Cremey (10), Tony (10), Parallel Reality (10), Froot. (10), 152chris (10), randomfurlong (10) I don't want to take anything away from the amazing songs remaining in this rate, but this really is AT LEAST top 3 Marina and the Diamonds. It's an absolutely stunning, anthemic power ballad, with a theme that I really feel I identify with, even if I haven't necessarily experienced the same things Marina has. 'I been doin', things I shouldn't do'. This is a haunting song that looks at dark, introverted Marina and how she feels she needs to break up with someone, but feels emotionally torn up about hurting them at the same time. The 'Babe I'm gonna ruin you, if you let me stay' part gives me goosebumps every time.
January 7, 20169 yr Would've been my 11. A special, special song. Proved most clearly by the fact Joseph doesn't rate it :P

January 7, 20169 yr 'I'm A Ruin' had to grow on me over time, but what a song! I was expecting it to win this if I'm honest.
January 7, 20169 yr Author There's something about Marina acknowledging that she doesn't always feel she's a good person in the lyrics that I find so refreshing and melancholic. :'( Anyway, for the top 3...
January 7, 20169 yr The best two of the top 5 being out already :( I'm A Ruin is so beautiful :heart: :heart:

(10), Liаm (10), princess_lotti (10), Harry Flynn (10), randomfurlong (10) I think lots of people were put off when originally hearing this not-yet-fully-formed introduction to Electra Heart. I remember seeing the song's Youtube comments filled with 'She's sold out' comments. Obviously, this was because of the heavy dance-pop influence, that all the popstars seemed to be going for at the time. Radioactive, I feel, remains fresh. There's something sinister and satirical in the way the song is written, that brings it to life. It's hard to believe that this was actually a top 40 hit, peaking at #25 back in 2011.
