People saying she should sing "normally." The way she is singing now is amazing! Why should she be another cookie cutter singer? Her voice is gorgeous the way it is.
See, the thing is, Marina made a rather shallow song (not hate, I promise) about picking up atttactive women into an emotional song about a girl who is only liked for her looks. Even she (the girl in the song) believes that her only redeeming feature is her appearance, which is just crushing her.
The songs she wrote for Electra Heart is not about her if that's what you're saying, Electra Heart is another personality Marina created for song writing.
heartless??? excuse me bro i believe that song has totally more heartfelt shit to it than most. dude just cause its not about butterflies and rainbows and shit totally doesnt mean its heartless
inthepeaceofthenight i think what she means is that in the original, you kinda just pass it off as a song about players who like hott girls. But hearing Marinas version, you actually hear the lyrics and stuff and hear how it actually is meaningful.
@@stephenfiora9063 both versions have a different purpose, different styles ,different production etc. we have to respect the original as at the end of the day marina is still singing their lyrics, their songwriting & everything they created.
Look, I love Marina and I love this version of the song but y'all don't have to trash the original to show that this version is amazing and puts "meaning" in the song. Just because 3OH!3's version is more pop-y and sexual they still wrote the lyrics and it's kinda obvious either way it has meaning. I think both artists did a great job at portraying the song in different ways.
I love Marina and the Diamonds. Like, when you listen this version of the song, it's like it means something, and the original version is just about sex. I love the way how she sing songs. Every Marina song has meaning.
It's still the same meaning of a one night stand and sex in Marina's cover it's just a different style. The song's meaning hasn't changed even when she sings it.
Spagoot Queen I’d argue against that. There’s a different between the story a song tells and how that song tells the story. The same story can be perceived as something fun by one artist and darker and sadder by another. The same words take on another meaning with Marina singing
@@em-lm2lv I couldn't understand what Marina said most of the time, cause my mother tongue is Portuguese and my English is kinda of broken. For me, with Marina singing it's like she regrets of something. The original version is just about something fun. Idk how to explain this, but that is how I felt
they both have completely diff vibes but gotta admit the original fits the lyrics better cuz hearing her sing abt "double d's" in a depressing tone feels weird lol
Basically, she killed it. Lol she made this song sound deep. Anyway, I love both versions. Listen to 3OH!3 when I feel like dancing, and Marina's whenever I feel like chilling and being deep.
This is the beauty of a true musician, to do what we all just heard,to present a song in their own interpretation of how emotionally it inspired them. We can only applaud and appreciate when we witness something so unique. I am a true fan of music, ARE YOU?
Inflection can totally change the meaning of a phrase. The original is shallow and pretty terrible (as in, being heartless) whereas she completely rewired the point of view from the abuser to the abused.
***** You do realize that changing the inflection and emphasis of a phrase can make it mean plenty of different things, even if the phrase is identical in words, right? I live in the southern US and a good example of inflection changing the meaning is the phrase "bless her/his heart". It can be said in a completely serious way and it can be said in a totally mocking way, just by the inflection. The same words are used but the meaning is totally different.
You ever listen to a song and wish it were longer? Luckily I don't feel that way about this song (in a good way). Just when you think it's done, she keeps going, twice, and I'm so glad she does. It's an amazing cover. way way better than the original.
She sang this song with the conviction and meaning that I always felt the song was meant to portray. I love it so so so so so much. It's beautiful and just sounds right.
A bit late but yeah!! I watched some of her more current videos and I kept thinking about how she sometimes looks like a Marina from years ago. They share some similarities for sure.
Nice legs, Daisy Dukes makes a man go That's the way they all come through like Low-cut, see-through shirts that make ya That's the way she come through like 'Cause I just set them up Just set them up Just set them up to knock them down 'Cause I just set them up Just set them up Just set them up to knock them down I think I should know how To make love to something innocent Without leaving my fingerprints out Now "LOVE" is just another word I never learned to pronounce How Do I say I'm sorry 'Cause the word is never gonna come out Now "LOVE" is just another word I never learned to pronounce Tight jeans, double D's makin' me go All the people on the street know Iced-out, lit-up make the kids go All the people on the street know 'Cause I just set them up Just set them up Just set them up to knock them down 'Cause I just set them up Just set them up Just set them up to knock them down I think I should know how To make love to something innocent Without leaving my fingerprints out Now "LOVE" is just another word I never learned to pronounce How Do I say I'm sorry 'Cause the word is never gonna come out Now "LOVE" is just another word I never learned to pronounce [Katy Perry:] You know that type of shit just don't work on me Whistling and trying to flirt with me Don't take it personally 'Cause we were never in love It doesn't really matter who you say you are Singing out of the window of your car And find another girl across the bar 'Cause LOVE is not what this was I think I should know how To make love to something innocent Without leaving my fingerprints out Now "LOVE" is just another word I never learned to pronounce How Do I say I'm sorry 'Cause the word is never gonna come out Now "LOVE" is just another word I never learned to pronounce
@TheChomps23 The point of this whole "Mashup Mondays" thing on the Billboard site is to do songs you wouldn't traditionally do as an artist and then put your own spin on them. So, it's not so much that she chose to do this but she was asked to come on their show and choose a song to cover. As seen by the other many covers by various artists. Derp.
She makes this song so meaningful, and it was still meaningful from strastrukk don't get me wrong; she makes it sound like we are on a different planet of music genres. Luv u Marina!!! Forever Your DIAMOND! ✦ ✧
She states the feeling of the song changes because she is a woman and the original creators are outgoing males which is seriously wrong. It's about the tone and how you sing it, if the males sang it this seriously with this slow pace then it would have the same deeper feeling, just saying.
who would have thought that this kind of song could have so much soul? Loved this performance! For the first time paid attention to the lyrics too!!! Nice!
i can not get enough of this song i have listen to this for a week straight i don't understand why my family is starting to get mad it is an amazing song and she did it very well..
Amazing! she took a fast paced pop song and made it a smoldering lounge vibe. I'm diggin it. You've gotta be able to reconize unique talent to enjoy this : )
I read on this livejournal that this song might actually describe how she is objectified throughout her life(tight jeans, double ds etc.) But honestly, I think she's doing a great job not being limited by her body(or in that case, not using her body to the extent of how our pop singers are doing so)
soooo excellent she turns the thin generic bright and dance pop song into a tragic, sinister with a hint of Misogyny ballad, she really did turn it into a really dark song.

THAT FROOT SOUNDS FAMILIAR
Heal me, Shan

You shall be healed from your wounds, poison and disease shall be banned from your body.
I hate you. But I also kind of love you.
She made this song sound like hers, even despite the lyrics lol.
With her singing the song it sounds like a confession.
People saying she should sing "normally." The way she is singing now is amazing! Why should she be another cookie cutter singer? Her voice is gorgeous the way it is.
IAmIsabellaM EXACTLY
People who like pop usually idealize a "normal" way of singing.
Maybe, just MAYBE, I don't like slow music. Ever think of that? Asshole. "Cookie cutter" fuck you.
Siris The Lion good for you
@@fredericksaxton9782 If you don't like slow music why are you listening to the song?
E.V.O.L is just another word
when i heard the line " l - o - v - e is just another word i never learnt to pronounce" first thing that came to my mind was the song e.v.o.l!
See, the thing is, Marina made a rather shallow song (not hate, I promise) about picking up atttactive women into an emotional song about a girl who is only liked for her looks. Even she (the girl in the song) believes that her only redeeming feature is her appearance, which is just crushing her.

Ollie Woozworld This has nothing to do with Electra Heart
At that time she was electra heart.
Ollie Woozworld Hard to tell, because she just released Family Jewels in 2010 which is when this video was made.
Or, she just liked this song, of course withdrawing my comment about Electra Heart.
This fits so much with the homewrecker archetype, i can't believe it. ❤
She sang it so in her style I didn't recognize the song... and I LOVE IT!!!
The spin she put on this is amazing.
3OH!3 version :🔥🤑🍾
Marina version : 🌧😔💔
she makes the original heartless lyrics sound so full of life
heartless??? excuse me bro i believe that song has totally more heartfelt shit to it than most. dude just cause its not about butterflies and rainbows and shit totally doesnt mean its heartless

@@tom7131 you're 100% right, just respect both and stop saying that one is better than the other one
"I'm actually really rubbish at covering songs" humm excuse me ?
* proceeds to make it better than the original. *
omg her accent gets me everytime
+Georgia Rose It's beautiful :(
I actually like this version. It really shows the complexity of genders with emotional gratification. Really beautiful.
SHE'S SUCH A GODNESS OMG, THIS VOICE IS JUST... oh i have no words i just love her
OMG STRAWBERRY ok
OMG STRAWBERRY it's called musical preference bruh
Omg Strawberry l o l

I agree but I don’t like the original at all and I love marinas version so much, sounds like a whole different song to me.
She makes every song beyond more emotional than it originally was
L-O-V-E is just another world I never learned to pronounce.
well it is E-V-O-L
I love Marina and the Diamonds. Like, when you listen this version of the song, it's like it means something, and the original version is just about sex. I love the way how she sing songs. Every Marina song has meaning.

For me, the song seems to have the same meaning no matter if it’s slow or fast.

Oh my GOD
I LOve how she made such a song feel so... PURE??? I don't know but OMG I just instantly fell in love
now that i hear her sing 30h!3's song i can see how heartless the lyrics were
All these people saying 3oh!3 is better. Shit have you heard them live? They're horrible. And this is coming from somebody who used to listen to them.
fuck off
+Iftikhar Khattak Why would someone telling the truth be told to "Fuck Off"
Celeste Marie I agreed with your opinion without reading the comment... purely because you know, Brand New = good music taste.
She made it better, maybe because she actually has an outstanding voice.
naa the original is better
they both have completely diff vibes but gotta admit the original fits the lyrics better cuz hearing her sing abt "double d's" in a depressing tone feels weird lol
Nope
Basically, she killed it. Lol she made this song sound deep. Anyway, I love both versions. Listen to 3OH!3 when I feel like dancing, and Marina's whenever I feel like chilling and being deep.
1:21 L.O.V.E's just another whuuuuuuut i'd never learn to pronounce
4 years later i S T I L L die laughing over this comment xD
That outfit is so 2008. I love it
Better than the original lol
No it isnt
Carl Morrow its my opinion dude so...

y does everyone keep callin the lyrics heartless? hi 3oh!3 wrote them not marina.......they just sounded different when singing it...........thnk u
good 2 know claude listens to marina and the diamonds
***** Tru tbh B)
Inflection can totally change the meaning of a phrase. The original is shallow and pretty terrible (as in, being heartless) whereas she completely rewired the point of view from the abuser to the abused.
razrv3lc ....you do realize she's saying the same words as them tho right

perfection
Wow she really made this her own, it's gorgeous ❤
Woke up with this banger in my head
This still lives rent free in my head
I love her singing style, it's so quirky and chill.
I like the original, but this version is so much more emotional, and has more of a meaning
So different, love it so much.
+Erika Kot I like your Profile Picture.
That bass guitarist is really getting into his groove.
don't fucking say that she's unoriginal or not talent. Just watch/listen to her songs. She wrote the lyrics by herself.
She didnt write these lyrics, its a cover of another song
yeah i know, her lyrics aren't trashy unlike this song lol.
It sounds perfect on her voice!!!!!
she has a great range, i love her unique voice !
Why does this reminds me of my grandma
aie larissa Your grandma must be hot as fuck :D
I am so sorry
+JoeEnigma XD
ngl i cackled
You can try it at 1,5x speed, it sounds more like original.
this cover just randomly popped out in my head
I love this version. It sounds so beautiful.

STAGGERING INCREDIBLE HAUNTING BEAUTIFUL PLAYED LIKE GENIUSES ALSO ...
DAMN I LOVE HER SHORTS!
this is a fucking masterpiece
THAT VOICE WOW
I saw her live a few weeks ago and I can honestly say she's insanely talented.
incredible talent, this is by far the best cover of this song in my opinion.
This version is brilliant.
Crazy about this cover
Marina reminds me of Safiya from buzzfeed in this, I don't know why, probably that lipstick XD
OMG YOURE RIGHT THEY LOOK SO ALIKE
the buzzfeed fandom strikes again
YASSS
A bit late but yeah!! I watched some of her more current videos and I kept thinking about how she sometimes looks like a Marina from years ago. They share some similarities for sure.
how can people dislike this??? she's such an amazing artist and this version is WAY better then the original...
Nice legs, Daisy Dukes makes a man go
That's the way they all come through like

You know that type of shit just don't work on me
Whistling and trying to flirt with me

And find another girl across the bar
'Cause LOVE is not what this was

Without leaving my fingerprints out

i like this version a lot, you people are crazy. i guess you either love it or hate it. i love it.
Still come back to this
nobody can wear high heels with socks... except marina! she's wonderful in every way
But you pronounce E.V.O.L right?

the song was always meaningful but the different genre just makes it easier for people to understand that
This is amazing...why is this the first time I'm finding this?!?!

I think the fact that she is female makes it different too tho, as it is from the perspective of a vulnerable woman?
you are great marina is just perfect
who would have thought that this kind of song could have so much soul? Loved this performance! For the first time paid attention to the lyrics too!!! Nice!
it’s still just as good as when I first heard it
i can not get enough of this song i have listen to this for a week straight i don't understand why my family is starting to get mad it is an amazing song and she did it very well..
Both versions are 🔥
Ngl I thought she was going to explode and go heavy metal
she looks great with dark hair!!! I am proud to be a greek because of her!!! (she is half greek, yeahhhh)
Amazing! she took a fast paced pop song and made it a smoldering lounge vibe. I'm diggin it. You've gotta be able to reconize unique talent to enjoy this : )
" o o " part makes me want to laugh
Marina is always fantastic, amazing cover!
way better than original, and the original was my favorite song ever once upon a time..
She brings this self-loathing and vulnerability to this song that I don't think it was ever meant to have. But it's kind of beautiful.
Beautiful.
I'm amazed.
That was actually really cool.
I didn't expect that.
I love it.
amazing vocals. i love the original version but this will haunt me for sure
Nice cover, I would have never imagined this song being played slowly. I prefer the original version, but Marina is always perfect.
This cover is genius. Marina is genius.
She sang so well, it's amazing!
EXTRAORDINARY GODDESS 🌠 powerful voice, powerful energy.
Lmao i didn't recognize the song at first!
Her voice is everything
i love this cover and her outfit
I like this version so must, brilliant work
I love her accent~
Best cover ever. Done.
I can really hear the bass, makes this much more special.
I read on this livejournal that this song might actually describe how she is objectified throughout her life(tight jeans, double ds etc.) But honestly, I think she's doing a great job not being limited by her body(or in that case, not using her body to the extent of how our pop singers are doing so)
Sooo much respect for marina ♥♥♥
3OH!3 is from Colorado! And i did not know that! Anybody also from there? Or is just me?
303 is the area code for boulder, so yea i think a lot of people put that together
LOVE
@dieterstar
Actually, her last name translates to diamonds, and she has said that the "and the Diamonds" does not refer to her band, but her fans.
Her outfit is so 2010 I love it
Well this was recorded in 2010 so...
soooo excellent she turns the thin generic bright and dance pop song into a tragic, sinister with a hint of Misogyny ballad, she really did turn it into a really dark song.
Is that really her real voice??
Yeah
@MusicGrl94 Cos she's from two different places. She's Welsh and Greek
