March 4, 20196 yr am I the only one who absolutely stans superstar??? I can’t stop listening I love it too, other then the ‘ooh ooh’ chorus, it reminds me a bit of ‘Ghosttown’ by Madonna.
March 7, 20196 yr "Superstar" on repeat at the moment - I really hope this is the track the label are trying to get radio onboard with!
March 21, 20196 yr it's out there sounds nice on 1st listen, this actually sounds like a hit if pushed
March 21, 20196 yr 'Orange Trees' is another disappointing song – I don't really understand what she is going for with this album thus far. Massively worried.
March 22, 20196 yr 'if pushed' being the key part there :lol: Well, it's #1 on New Music Friday, so if she can't get a decent position chart based on that then I don't know what will.
March 22, 20196 yr Yikes, Orange Trees really isn't it. HH is the only one I've loved so far which worries me because FROOT didn't have a single bad song
March 22, 20196 yr Well, it's #1 on New Music Friday, so if she can't get a decent position chart based on that then I don't know what will. NMF only has a 1-day effect, after that, nothing
March 22, 20196 yr Orange Trees is... fine I guess but again pretty disappointing. It might grow but I'm really worried for this album too, this and Superstar are pretty much just serviceable pop you'd listen to a couple of times but not really go back to. A pop sound was great on Electra Heart because it was virtually a pastiche, and worked so well because it was perfect pop as pop should be, but this is just.... there.
March 22, 20196 yr Author bar ‘handmade heaven’ everything thus far has been so...pedestrian. totally lacking in any nuance and character we’ve come to expect from marina. i’m half expecting a dull, baggy and overlong record from marina. something i never imagined could happen.
March 22, 20196 yr Interesting that everything we’ve heard so far has been from the Love side (I think?), will be good to hear how the Fear tracks differ. I’ve liked everything so far but haven’t gone back to them many times (apart from HH). I’m liking Orange Trees more than Superstar but I can see why people are finding it all a bit disappointing.
March 22, 20196 yr can’t comment on Orange Trees yet but maybe it’s because all Marina’s previous songs haven’t really been about being in love? We love dark/emo Marina (which sounds bad considering her interviews for this era) so let’s see what Fear bring s us...
March 22, 20196 yr I'm surprised by the lukewarm reactions here to Orange Trees and Superstar. I think both are stronger than HH.
March 22, 20196 yr 0H6vdQSXaR4 I didn't expect Marina to make the new Thomson Holidays x Matalan advert
March 22, 20196 yr can’t comment on Orange Trees yet but maybe it’s because all Marina’s previous songs haven’t really been about being in love? We love dark/emo Marina (which sounds bad considering her interviews for this era) so let’s see what Fear bring s us... good point! she's taken a break from writing trying to do Marina instead of what everyone expects her to be based on the previous work. I'll still love her as an artist and continue respecting her music even if this era turns out to not be my cup of tea. Orange Trees is very feel-good and warm which I like but it doesn't seem like something I want to put on repeat~
