This song is about how people treat celebrities like they're not really human. "I'm just like you, you're like me, imperfect and human are we" indicates is about how just because Melanie is a celebrity, that doesn't mean she's different from us. She's a human too and she's just like us and doesn't deserve to be treated any differently. "There are strangers taking pictures of me when I ask no more" is about how people take pictures of her without asking and apparently it's viewed as acceptable just because she's a famous celebrity.
"Harsh words if you don't get a pic with me" in 2016 april "fans" were taking pics and videos of her without her consent. She said "It's one thing to ask for a picture, but to just take pictures of me is kinda weird", APOLOGISED, said she doesn't feel comfortable and excused herself. The guy taking the video posted it online and SHE got a lot of backlash and insults for it.
Please I beg, watch the K-12 videos in order since all together its an entire film starring and produced by Melanie. It's truly one of her best works and every song has deep meanings and metaphors. This album is a lot of fans favorites. But truly the entirety of the films and albums story is powerful. I hope you guys enjoy her!
In an interview with Alternative Press Magazine, Melanie revealed that the song was written back in March 2017, when she was performing at Lollapalooza Festival in Brazil. She stated that she was alone in her hotel room, having the feeling of isolation, and being mistreated as a human; she decided to sing and make a voice memo of it, singing only the chorus part. Similarly to Dollhouse, the song is about how celebrities are portrayed as 'perfect' by the public as well as how they're treated in the music industry. The lines, "Harsh words if you don't get a pic with me" and "There are strangers taking pictures of me when I ask "no more", also speak on an incident from 2016 where Melanie stopped fans from taking pictures of her without consent. "Art don't sell" - she published her movie K-12 on RUclips, available to everyone for free

Great watch! I am slightly disappointed they didn't start at the beginning of K-12 and follow the story in order. Still happy the guys are reacting to Melanie's music though.
I hope you guys will get the chance to check out "Strawberry Shortcake" on her K-12 album, or even getting the chance to watch the whole movie. Im so excited for you guys to get through the K-12 era and hear her most recent album as well. all I'll say is that the formulas feel super refreshing and you can REALLY see her growth. it focuses less on calling out issues in society (for the most part) and focuses more on a personal healing journey. it doesnt feel as "circus-y" either, so maybe you'll enjoy that album more ?
So happy you guys checked this out!! One of my absolute favorites by her, super cool to watch the behind the scenes since she choreographed the dance and whatnot for it. The K-12 documentary/film she made was amazing
Although each song does a wonderful job telling a story on its own, I highly recommend you guys react to any K-12 songs IN ORDER (per the album) due to all of them cohesively telling a story that goes along with her K-12 full length feature film (which is free to watch here on youtube on her YT channel)
I love Melanie and I’m so glad you’re reacting to her! Show and tell has always been one of my personal favorites 😊 If i may suggest a new artist? Try Ethel Cain; she’s sososo good, especially her songs American Teenager, Gibson Girl, Western Nights, and Inbred (the song, though Inbred the EP is awesome too.) she’s got this gothic Americana vibe to all her stuff, and her album Preacher’s Daughter has a whole storyline to it.
I like the ending of the video when the doll is thrown into the excited crowd that wants her and then the doll is cut open with her insides out in symbolism of her raw and purely vulnerable and only then were they saying “ew gross” and walking away.
It would be so cool if yall did a reaction to Melanie’s k-12 film that she did! Like the cry baby era, it’s a whole timeline that basically leads up to how she evolves as a person and gets into her portals era
Show and tell us such a good song on the k-12 album, if your starting the k-12 album def recommend either Detention or Highschool Sweethearts, those are super good (imo) but if you’re going back an forth between albums also recommend Pity party or Carousel, genuinely just love y’alls reaction videos nonetheless !
I'm so happy you're exploring Melanie Martinez's songs! I started watching your videos for all of the Sleep Token reactions, which are so much fun, too. I hope you'll get to react to any of my other faves from Melanie's K12 album: "Strawberry Shortcake", "Principal", "Orange Juice", and "Highschool Sweethearts".
you guys should definitely watch the k-12 movie she made ! not even as a reaction video, just because i believe everyone needs to see it at some point !
I am twenty two years old. I lost my father when I was two years old, and all my teenage years I listened to the songs of Melanie Martinez of the eighties and nineties and Lana Del Rey. And I was watching Lolita movies and.. and father and daughter porn. And I spent the world of a romantic relationship with a man older than me with these songs. And at the age of 16, I met a 40-year-old boxing champion who was divorced and very supportive and kind. He was what I thought of with Melanie's songs. He always took care of me and spent all his time, energy and money to help me and my family. was spending Even his ex-wife complained and tried to separate us, and her friends said I was too young. But after three years of relationship, we got married at the age of nineteen, and I am pregnant from him. With this Melanie song, I remembered that time of our relationship
with the line about taking pictures of her there was actually an instance where a fan started randomly recording her as she was signing something for a fan and she said that it was weirding her out she said something along the lines of "it's okay to want a pics with me guys but to do it randomly is kinda weird" (not exactly what she said but there's a video somewhere) After this video of her saying this went online people gave her so much hate for it.
Love your Melanie Martinez precautions definitely carry on with her ‘journey’ as of billie eilish please react to her new album ‘hit me hard and soft’ especially her song ‘THE GREATEST’
I hope they listen to some songs from portal, there are some real wild cards in that album and I love it!!! Even if they don’t I’m so happy they are listening to more of her stuff!!!

Yeah and like "celebrities can't have bad days, etc"

"I mean, you caused it..." YES, exactly! That's her point!

This album is a lot of fans favorites. But truly the entirety of the films and albums story is powerful. I hope you guys enjoy her!
Even though I like the album Crybaby more.. I have to agree that K-12 is truly a masterpiece if you watch and listen to it at the same time.
Yess!!!

The last scene when the doll is all opened up with its guts outs means revealing her true self, which causes the reacting of people saying she’s gross
"stop blocking us" i love you guys 😂
Who is blocking them?

So happy you guys checked this out!! One of my absolute favorites by her, super cool to watch the behind the scenes since she choreographed the dance and whatnot for it. The K-12 documentary/film she made was amazing

More Melanie Martinez ❤
I’d really want them to listen to Orange Juice. I think they’d have a lot to say and desperately need a reaction.
If you're getting into her K-12 album, I HIGHLY recommend Strawberry Shortcake, or Orange Juice. They both have very emotional messages.
Yessss! I’ve been dying for you guys to do this one!
you guys NEED to react to strawberry shortcake, like REALLY 😫
High school sweetheart x❤
MORE MELANIE MARTINEZ PLZ!🫶🫶🫶🫶

Ironic that they blocked this because Melanie wanted to share this movie on YT for free for her fans iirc
You guys need to do strawberry shortcake by her !!
I’d love to see a reaction to portals. Specifically tunnel vision or void! I’ve been loving all the Mel vids keep it up guys!
At this point it's worth checking k12 in order
She has a movie here on RUclips. Free to watch, called K-12. It’s worth a watch
If you would like a good song from her newer album, Evil I think is a spectacular song and it shows an amazing message
You are actually getting into her story album. K-12 is one of those you should watch from the beginning
I hope they do “tag your it” powerful shit
PLEASE LISTEN TO PORTALS!! ITS SO GOOD. SHES BECOME SUCH A BETTER ARTIST AND GROWN SO MUCH!!!
I really like highschool Sweethearts from this album.
Y'all NEED to watch the K-12 movie
Reminds me of the treatment of the actor from iCarly that played Spencer......how his story is now being told
You guys should react to Nurse's office or Strawberry shortcake
Love your Melanie Martinez precautions definitely carry on with her ‘journey’ as of billie eilish please react to her new album ‘hit me hard and soft’ especially her song ‘THE GREATEST’

Although some trauma songs are made up, some are from friends in childhood such as dollhouse
