Oh it's gorgeous and everything I want from her, albeit not the storming lead single I might have hoped for. It's just so luscious and I'm glad she's doing her and not hit chasing given it will NEVER work for her it seems.
It’s nice in a track 10 from the album kind of way. Not really what I wanted from the first single though.
i don’t really think marina is existing in a ‘lead single’ ‘second single’ etc kind of situation. she’s got an incredibly loyal fan group who will come and see her live...that counts for more than a stray spotify play; she hasn’t been a chart-force for a long time! i actually am so excited for this era
Don’t get me wrong I’m still excited. But I certainly don’t want an album full of songs like this. I’d be a devoted fan and see her live if only she’d tour here
There's a feature on her in The Guardian today, although the tone is fairly pass-ag in places for what's positioned as a bit of a puff piece. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2...s-british-pop-nearly-woman-no-1-album-fanbase
That's what I get for not clicking through the link - it was, in fairness, on the Official Charts twitter and it was early...
Slightly less relevant than the NMTop40. Still, higher than the Pepsi Max chart in the overall hierarchy.
Tracklisting is a bit...well, vanilla. "Life Is Strange", "You", "Enjoy Your Life"...I hope the lyrics aren't The Little Book Of Mindfulness set to music.
I fear she's become a total hippy and this album will be all "love everyone, don't be scared, everything will be fine" and, by the time it comes out, Britain will be pretty much in civil war mode post-Brexit. Read the fucking room, Maz.
i wish someone would actually post them. now i have to go. find them. and look. i'm already exhausted.
