LYRICS
[Verse 1]
I know that I can't have it all
But without you I am afraid I'll fall
I know I’m playing with your heart
And I could treat you better but I'm not that smart
When it comes to love, you’re an easy fight
A flower in a gun, a bird in flight
It isn't fair and it isn’t right
To lead you on like it’s all alright
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I played with your heart
And I could treat you better but I'm not that smart
You still mean everything to me, to me
But I wanna be free
[Chorus]
I'll ruin, yeah I'll ruin you (I'll ruin)
I've been doing things I shouldn't do (things I shouldn't do)
Yeah, yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah
Yeah, yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah
[Verse 2]
It’s difficult to move on
When nothing was right and nothing’s wrong
You still can't look me in the eye
Cause you've been bitten once and now you're twice as shy
I've had my share of beautiful men
But I'm still young and I want to love again
It’s difficult to say goodbye
And easier to live a lover’s lie
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And I've tried to say
Babe, I'm gonna ruin you if you let me stay
You still mean everything to me, to me
But I wanna be free
[Chorus]
I'll ruin, yeah I'll ruin you (I'll ruin)
I've been doing things I shouldn't do (things I shouldn't do)
Yeah, yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah
Yeah, yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah
[Bridge]
It doesn't feel right and it doesn't feel fair
When I’m planning to move on and you're still standing there
Don’t wanna keep a secret but I don't know how to keep it fair, yeah
[Chorus Variation]
I'll ruin, yeah I'll ruin you (I'll ruin)
I've been doing things I shouldn't do (things I shouldn't do)
But I don’t wanna say goodbye (goodbye)
But baby I don’t wanna lie
To lie, to lie to you
I’m a ruin
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah
Yeah, yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah

#FROOT
People who say "why isn't Marina famous" annoy me. She is famous. She has her own little fan base. She's not COMMERCIALLY famous (in the US at least), I'll give you that. But I think you'd be surprised. The other day, I'm A Ruin was #2 on iTunes. That's all of her fans buying the song.
AMEN🙏
..
Well, I think she was kind of "big" briefly when Electra Heart came out, she attracted a lot of teenage fangirls with that album.. But I don't think she will care that some of them have been weeded out by now. Obviously Marina IS famous, but I like that she's not a mega star. If she wanted to be a huge star, I'm sure she would be.
I am just happy that she's underrated. That makes her special and only people who understand the meaning of her songs love her songs.
SupremeHeaux lol plus makes it easier if you want to buy concert tickets XD
i like how most singers play the victim in songs like this, yet marina is different; she takes the role of the offending, not the offended.
And it makes the song even more relatable. This is truly a masterpiece
If you pay attention to other music of hers, she plays both roles, like, Lies she is the offended and in I'm A Ruin she is the one that offends.
@@victorkendyaogakidonascime9779 Yes! That's what I've always thought.
As someone who recently broke up with his bf I really appreciate music that’s from the dumper’s perspective. We (dumpers) are going through some shit before pulling the plug and after too. So it’s nice to see that I’m not alone when having mixed feelings ending a relationship that had no future.
@@zoltan_takacs --- My ex can't FEEL emotions from music (he has Specific Musical Anhedonia) -- this to me makes him NOT human. Empty. A robot. A shell. And I say this as someone with autism. I don't believe in any Religion... BUT.... MUSIC IS MY GOD.
Am I the only one that absolutely loves that gold "glitter" in the caruncle of her eye? It's so strangely attractive, she looks like a greek goddess or something.
No, I absolutely love that gold glitter in the caruncle of her eye too! :-) I have attempted to recreate that look on my own eyes many times. I fucking love it.
Celestial Dragon “Greek gold rush” am I right?
what makes it better is that she is greek
She IS a greek goddess
Lmao caruncle that’s a sick word
the fact that marina can jump around in a ninja costume for 4 minutes and still look hot is beyond me but i dont question my queen
IM WHEEZING
Lol your queen xD
don+t question question do whatever you want
Hahahah yea
🤣🤣🤣❤
"I could treat you better but I'm not that smart" - how i lose friends.. true story
me.
same.
Fuck.
Came back to this song just because of that line... I fucking hate myself for it.
Same
this song slowly became one of my all time favourites. it carries so much emotion and really strikes a chord with me. not ashamed to admit i've cried to this song.
I'm actually crying while writing this comment
immortal is more sad
Martin i feel yoy :')
I immediately liked this song, but it's amazing how it becomes evenmore powerful over the years. The album as a whole had to grow on me though. It's a lot, you know? Not in a bad way, but every song is very laden with emotion and it takes a while to wrap my head around it.
Martin its Just so nostalgic and new wave ar the same time ♡
this is one of those songs you can enjoy light heartedly on a daily basis but when it's 1AM and you're alone with your thoughts you can enjoy the song whole heartedly and really feel the pain in the lyrics
Yeah..💖💖
me rn
royalkitana oh my lord I’m doing that right now.
well damn
Actually it's 5:36am and i didn't sleep for a bit but i am here admiring her talent and her beauty AND ENJOYING THE TIME I HAVE.
The Family Jewels is my Life. Electraheart is my one true love, and Froot is my religion.
It's weird how depending who you are you will find a different one of those things most important
Hi
Yessss
Amen
the holy trinity
My ears and my eyes are feeling really blessed right now.
how original
_ XxAlexiaxX _ Mars my mummy.
I think you're a genius, i love your letters, your sound. Your music help me so much, now i see the world in a different way.
THANK YOU 💜💜👑
It really fascinates me how Marina isn't 'huge', you know? Like she has solid talent, song writing and an actual personality. It's so interesting. There's something about her that doesn't quite fit into the mould. Is she alternative-pop? I dunno. She's so great.
Actually I've probably just answered my own musings, in that commercial success equals very different things? Though that's not saying the musical giants don't have any of the above. Hmm.
Probably because she's independent and makes music that inspires her and really takes time to cultivate her craft instead of producing crappy songs that get stuck in your head while prancing around provocatively for attention.
jonbehere I completely agree. These pop songs are just stupid lyrics and auto tune. Yes she may use auto tune but it's not overwhelming. I wish smaller bands like this and Regan and Sarah (and more) could be popular without being completely exploited to pop and fame and snottiness
It's sad manufactured world still. I agree #jonbehere
***** *cough cough* Anaconda, S&M and Pour It Up both by Rihanna and I'm sure there are others.
People complaining about her 'cheap' 'crappy' videos are totally wrong; instead of creating high budget videos which just look fake, Marina is embracing the visual side of music - the beauty of moving with the beat, lighting that matches the song and silks flowing in time with the song. If you need a scripted video with a story for every song, you can't be appreciating the music fully. All her videos have something to do with their songs - even if they don't 'explain' them in full detail. In the end, its the song that counts, not the video.
People who hate it because they don't get it aren't that smart. +Tootle Turtle
The reality is that they don't have (or they don't wanna put) money in music videos anymore... You gotta be creative instead!
I agree with people who find old Marina's videos better than the Froot ones, but we haven't seen all of them yet, and I'm glad she's doing videos for almost all of her songs so...
I hate those artificial looking, scripted music videos that seem to be every where now a days. Marina does a very good job staying away from falling in that category, but that doesnt mean she is perfect either. I love how she doesnt have to strip down of her clothes or shake her bump to attract people's attention. I love how she can entertain us by just being herself on screen, using her own artistic vision and not the one set by the today's low standard society. But im going to be honest, most of her FROOT music videos have felt like the same thing over and over again. I see her either posing or waving her arms around while singing to the camera. It's pretty to watch and all but i feel like the visuals just are not as rich and unique to the eyes as the sound is to the ears. The music videos for Oh No and Primadonna were just absolutely stunning to watch, they both grabbed my attention within the first few seconds and it stayed that way till the very end. I know making a music video isnt exactly a piece of cake, but i just hope we get another Primadonna or Oh No for this album :D
Disagreed.
This is the way you drag the basics, pretty good.
this song change my life
same
👍
how?
Totally
Find Your King, Duh
Makes me cry everytime , this song has a level of purity like no other
I cry everytime too
+William Freeze lol by far my favorite comment
Masculinity is so fragile I can't
Antonio Jimenez i think the same, this Song describes me😭
rofl
Why are all the best artists underrated?!
A writer with a reason to write cause dumb people like dumb things..
A writer with a reason to write Because aren't for everyone
Yeah right just like now "what was the name of that band oh yes The Beatles,So underrated a shame "
A writer with a reason to write im just going through every video right now and wondering why shes so fucking underrated -_-
Best artists are always ahead of their time, so they are underrated
me when i'm a ruin starts playing:
verses and the chorus:
**sings like a normal person**
Yeah uh blalblalba part:
YEAEAEAEH AAAhHAAAA WHOOOO HOOOO YEEEEEEEEEEEAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHFAFSF
AHAHA SAME
MEEE
lol ikr
ME
me to.
A fact that nobody ever mentioned: Marina is, besides from her other outstanding talents, an amazing dancer. There is not so much explicit movement here but she definitely feels the music with every fibre of her body. It's also visible on her other videos.
annsolito true!! I think I read somewhere she went to dance school.
Has anyone played the Froot album on repeat during a road trip. I did it and to be honest it made my trip more memorable for me.
Froot makes everything more memorable because of how beautiful it is
I've listened to it for about a year basically day by day and it was awesome. Made me happier. BUT I WANT "IM NOT HUNGRY ANYMORE" TO BE RELEASED SO IM UNGRY DUHHH
I DID TOO!!! 5 and a half hours on repeat
yesss i have and ur right it does make the trip more memorable:')
everytime i listen to froot it reminds me of last summer and it makes those memories feel so... happy and emotional at the same time
WHO THE FUCK DISLIKED THE VIDEO???!!!!! IT'S MARINA FOR GOD'S SAKE !!!!!
Not even Jesus have pleased them all...
The people who disliked this are obviously subscribed to her because she hasn't posted it anywhere yet, so pathetic how they subscribe to someone just to do that, marina is perfect! fuck them!
MUST BE A JEALOUS BITCH
People have different opinions calm the fuck down lol
Josh xoxo it was posted on noisey's channel yesterday
play this at my funeral.
this is such a true comment
I want bubblegum bitch at my funeral
Sugar Pink Why? XDDD
I want How to be a Heatbreaker at my funeral
BoomBaDoom Again, I repeat myself:
Why? XDDD
she deserves the same hype as lana
I DON'T GET YOU GUYS. YOU GET ANGRY WHEN SHE TAKES FOREVER TO RELEASE A VIDEO BUT YOU COMPLAIN WHEN IT COMES OUT????
I personally love this video, the visuals are beautiful, her voice is beautiful, her costume is beautiful, she's beautiful. It's great. Wonderful. Also, those of you complaining about the camera quality, what kind of shit phone are you watching from? I'm watching from my damn TV and it still looks great.
Someone complained that they hated this video because they don't like jellyfish. I'm actually questioning humanity right now. xD
Those jellyfish and just the visuals in general looked so fucking beautiful, I just watched it from my tv too, it looks amazing. People who are complaining that Marina is doing new things are children. +Declan Coleman
Exactly like just appreciate what you got, stuff like this is cheap. Marina is a beautiful woman with a lot of talent. And if her "fans" can't see that then why are you even here.
*isnt cheap
Srry a typo! ☺️
I like her videos and when she takes her time to make one it makes me happy because she works really hard for us to like it so I don't complain about the time it takes for a video
Yesssss!!!! Exactly! 👏 I loved this video too & the song!
I'm not even 15 seconds into the song and I'm already crying…
Imagine if this is the sequel to Power and Control
RIP
Marina and The Devil + Hey I love your channel 😂
Scary how talented she is. Best artist that I have heard in years.
Brian F. Will exactly
👍
Froot album hits different when you're already GROWN UP
So true !!😊💯
I just love everything about her. Her lyrics, music, voice, herself... To me she's THAT artist who I can say I like everything about.
Same :3 she's so talented
She is the only artist I can listen to 10 days in a row on super repeat and love her more and more with every moment.
Julia Sunshine Totally
Julia Sunshine for real
Her and Je$$e Rutherford are that for me :)
I wish we could stop comparing Melanie to Marina or Marina to Lana. We are turning into the Beyonce and Rihanna fans. Bashing talented artist and trying to make war. Enjoy their music. It's all beautiful.
Yeah, they're all different. My favorite is Marina 😍
Ashley M. wait who judging Both...? I'll kick their ass their both amazing
+Wolfgirl3 No one's judging them, it's just many people's comparing them all time. I'm a true Lana's fan, but I like Marina and Melanie as well. They're so different, and those three queens are really creators of art. 🌹
Ashley M. I know right, I am a fan of Marina and the diamonds and Lana del Rey, and Melanie, and Beyonce and Rihanna and it's pretty sad that there is a war
This is one of the best comments of a diamond, i would vote for you for president
Marina is so underrated I want to cry. :(
she's pretty popular in the UK. But yes you are partly right.
But she inhabits a different universe from many mainstream pop acts.
I hear her on the American radio she also plays a lot in the mall.
Keith Bate I've not heard her on the radio since Primadonna. She's completely underrated. She's so much better than today's "mainstream" artists.
Cece Cheung She played at Loolapoolza in Brazil recently and went down a storm.
Wonderful live version of my fav track ever by her "I'm a ruin"
Think she is building a world wide fan base. But she will never be as popular as the Katie/Gaga crowd
Keith Bate
because she doesn't promote herself with stupid stuff like strange costumes and bad behavior. People want that now, not her.
Knowing how big of a Madonna fan she is, you can tell how much this video is inspired by Frozen but also Wuthering Heights by Kate Bush. She put her own twist to it. It’s very simple but it compliments the song very well.
you are frozen when your heart is not open
LOL...I said the same exact thing.
Rafael Santos HAHA THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT!
Rafael Santos Aww shit.
I thought the same at first seen hahahaha
Yes
This song really makes me feel good feelings. Your voice has always been special to me and always will be so. I love you always. Thank you for all the emotions you make me feel Marina ♥
Marinaa
AMAZING SONGGG ! ily Marinaaaa
yess finally music video is here :)
YESS this album will be amazing
Joanne Germanotta right. She is best
L Y R I C S :
I know that I can't have it all
But without you I am afraid I'll fall
I know I'm playing with your heart
And I could treat you better but I'm not that smart
When it comes to love, you're an easy fight
A flower in a gun, a bird in flight
It isn't fair and it isn't right
To lead you on like it's all alright
I played with your heart
And I could treat you better but I'm not that smart
You still mean everything to me
To me
But I wanna be FREE
I'll ruin, yeah, I'll ruin you (I'll ruin you)
I've been doing things I shouldn't do (Things I shouldn't do)
Yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah
Yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah
It's difficult to move on
When nothing was right and nothing's wrong
You still can't look me in the eye
'Cause you've been bitten once and now you're twice as shy
I've had my share of beautiful men
But I'm still young and I wanna love again
It's difficult to say goodbye
And easier to LIVE a lover's lie
And I've tried to say
Babe, I'm gonna ruin you if you let me stay
You still mean everything to me,
To me
But I wanna be FREE
I'll ruin, yeah, I'll ruin you (I'll ruin you)
I've been doing things I shouldn't do (Things I shouldn't do)
Yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah
Yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah
It doesn't feel right and it doesn't feel fair
When I'm planning to move on and you're still standing there
Don't wanna keep a secret but I don't know how to keep it fair, yeah
I'll ruin, yeah, I'll ruin you (I'll ruin you)
I've been doing things I shouldn't do (Things I shouldn't do)
But I don't wanna say goodbye
But, baby, I don't wanna lie
To lie, to lie to you
I'm a ruin
Yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah
Yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah
Yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah

+Nisa Şafak Kaya aynen öyle
And They say she sings like a dork. And sometimes she does. But even granting Them their point, she's the best dork to happen to pop music in at least 20 years.
Yep.
My words aren't enought to explain how creative, perfect and original she is.
Yesss! Omffg the weird fluid trantric dancing, thewind, the sky, the song, its beautiful

Was that a Haiku?
@@Phrenotopia Idk?
awwwwww
YES!
I met Marina in February and I told her how much I love this song and the video, and her response was ''Oh my God, did you look at my nose, I was so cold that day'' LOVE HER
This makes me cry. It's a perfect song about feeling imperfect and feel like you're just the biggest fuck-up ever who doesn't deserve someone who loves and cares.
Of course, about every Marina song is great, but this would rank in my top 3. Visually and presentively it's a masterpiece.
This is so beautiful, to a spiritual level.
when I broke my mum vase I listen to this song .
marina is still perfect. can we all shut up now
PREACH
TESTIFY
+Croquantes AMEN
HALLELUJAH
The next album is gunna kill us .. 2
Matthrick O I don't know but I can't wait!
Yehia Abdelrahman I thought she stopped writing and is taking a break?
Ashley r u serious :/ !!
Ashley she just took a small break. i think shell comeback next year
She said she is writing a new era on Facebook!
The tears are real, no matter who cries them. To think she's been out in the desert. Things are about to change
I absolutely love the whole album, every song is beautifully written and its been playing on repeat for the past 5 weeks of my life❤️😭
Best album
+Grace Hinrichs past year of my life
When my mom asks if I heard her: "yeah yeah, uh huh, ooh, yeah."
I remember coming back from the grocery store & this song came out, i was in a (what i thought) great relationship.. I had called my boyfriend at the time and told him to give it a listen, at the time he & i were having problems & once he heard the song he completely broke down and had apologized to me for everything he'd done to me, and he promised me he would change for the better, he ended up leaving me a week later. He was & I believe still is, the love of my life, i don't know if he'll ever come back to this video and maybe catch my comments, but i'm sorry for anything i've done to you Chris. I love you.
I was 15 when this came out and I remember listening to it religiously with little to no thought about what her lyrics meant. Fast forward 5 years and I'm 20 now. I understand every single word. I have loved. I have cheated. I have lost. I have had my share of beautiful men. I have done THINGS I SHOULDN'T HAVE DONE. I AM A RUIN but the beauty about MARINA is that she shows you it's okay to be a ruin. We're not perfect. We are young and stupid. MARINA found the exact words I was looking for but was too afraid to say them myself. I was hurting him and I knew it but it was just so much easier playing this lovebird facade than walking away. He left me, he was much tougher than I was and although it was hard, it was the best thing that could've happened to me. If you TRULY LOVE someone, never do anything to hurt them. Karma will get you. I learnt the hard way.
But did you truly love them than? If you truly love it is never too late. You can be melancholic about the chances lost or build up yourself and take a chance on love again.
I totally relate !!!!! I left though because I felt terrible
Omg this is basically a new 'Wuthering Heights'
*video
I think Marina has been heavily influenced by Kate Bush. She even sounds a bit like her in some of her videos.
Yea she said that this video was inspired kate and Madonna
iikk
+Mayra Tunty Yeah, I can see the influence from Madonna's "Frozen" in the art direction for the music video.
I just can't stop listening to this song, I come to this video like 10x a day
jzs the same here!
i saw marina yesterday in the first show of her neon nature tour and this song was my favourite live! shes such an amazing performer
You're so lucky!
2:56 ✨THE LEGENDARY BRIDGE✨
one of my favs ever
Is this a sequel to Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior?
Oh my frickin god I just choked
IM CRYINH
OMG I LOVE MARINA AND IM ASHAMED TO SAY THIS. BUT I LAUGHED SO HARD WHEN I READ THIS I ALMOST PISSED MYSELF
Brenda Song... Old Disney man...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
She's a goddess!! 💜💜💜
She a martial artist.
yeeeeayeeeehh, ahhhaaam uhhhhhh, yeaaaaaah!
+Ricardo Gomes yeeeeayeeeehh, ahhhaaam uhhhhhh, yeaaaaaah!
wooohooo yeaaaahhh!
crying to this song because my boyfriend is a wonderful man, yet I don't think I can giving into the love I used to feel for him anymore. And i feel so guilty because I'm trying to elongate the relationship to see if I start feeling love again but deep down I know that this is not going to work out and I'm scared to break his heart because he loves me so much
This song represents me a lot, I had to break with my irish boyfriend (we were together for 7 years, starting age 19) I was falling apart to a point of no return, we both suffered a lot, maybe he did suffer more than myself :( (its always being said that the person that doesnt expect the break suffers more). He meant a lot to me then, he still means a lot to me, but its a different kind of love/affection. Dont be afraid of choosing what your heart tells you to do. Sometimes relationships can be saved but sometimes don't
Girl, I’m going through the same. But I already made up my mind and decided to end it. Feel shit atm so tell me how do feel 6 months in?
Me rn😞
I feel this🤍🥺

I'm proud to be a diamond. Because Marina is awesome, and her fan base can actually brush negativity off and thus aren't easily provoked by random hate. Also, diamonds can understand the difference between an informed a opinion and hate, and respond accordingly. Thus, diamonds are one of the classiest fan bases.
People complaining about her new videos are not being overproductions: please, go back to yours manufactured idols! This girl? is in a level that you can't understand.
Completely agree, I love what she is doing.
***** Its not about her clothes...Did I wrote that above?
She sings pop...of course
we will see traces of this genre all the time in her videos
and music. In my view, her music plays with the
alternative. The difference is that she protrudes in a
significant way, even in Electra Heart...that was
her more commercial album and she had not much autonomy
as in Froot. The contrast with mostly of the pop singers
that we see in charts is huge in question of
significant content. I like Lorde for the same reasons, good
lyrics, good music...simple. My comment was about people who
are used to the same videos with stories or group choreography...an addictive beat with a
poor lyric, coming here to complain. And I listen top charts music sometimes...Mainstream is not synonymous of sameness and failure, I understand that, thanks...its just not my favorites artists. But of course all of this is a personal opinion ... and well, everyone should listen what is pleasant for their ears right?
I will not try to convince you that I'm not this hipster poser that you said, since u have
this power to read people through the Internet...and we are in youtube comments for God's sake...I'm aware of the raging people around the internet, wich makes me rarely post something...but sometimes is good to have some healthy discussions about things we like. have a good
life.
flavioxvier are u implying fear of loathing was overproduced? because she's literally just walking around and cutting her hair and that video is more interesting than all the froot era videos combined lmao
Baby not at all...you can disregard when I said "new videos". In short: yes, she also wants to be recognized, but even singing pop, her style is more simpler, so those seeking productions as "bad blood" and etc will not find what they are looking for in her work ... and many people tend to speak without understand ... but it is so not only with music right? (not that I'm some kind of expert, I' am a listener just like you)
Theory:
In this song, Marina cheats on her lover (The one from Froot) and feels guilty about it (I played with your heart, and I could treat you better but i'm not that smart). She attempts to salvage the relationship, but finds no point as her lover no longer loves her as he used to(You still can't look me in the eye), so she breaks off the relationship. In Blue, she 'Misses' her ex, despite hating him and keeps coming back to him for 'One last time'. If anyone wants to add, feel free
LeSakiko deep 😂😂😂
I feel as if she was playing him (you know being a heartbreaker) and she opened up too much and cared about him. However, she has a different idea of life than he does (more rebellious) and doesn't want to follow his ways ("you still mean everything to me, but I wanna be free"). So, she leaves him and swims with jellyfish. That could mean that she is beautiful to look at, but, once you get close, you'll get hurt (I'll ruin you).
LeSakiko this song is pretty clear as to what she's trying to say but she also uses metaphors which I loveeeee
I think it's about attachment issues. Like she loves him but she can't invest in him because she wants to be free and it will ruin him. She's already broken things off with him once and now he constantly anticipates it happening again. While this whole time she's thinking about breaking it off again and she knows it will ruin him. She already did it once, and now she's lying to him and herself and just wants to be free.
I think Marina has had life experiences of being badly hurt by a man or men when she was young and became promiscuous and vengeful because of it, and a lot of her music reflects her frustration with being judged for being a highly sexual woman, but also criticizing hook up culture and empty sex or over-sexualized objectification for women. I relate to her a whole whole lot. I honestly don't think this song is about cheating - I think it's about emotionally depending on a man (maybe even a platonic friend who knows) she knows she's not strongly attracted to or in love with, but she cares about him and keeps him around while she hooks up with other guys who don't want a relationship. She's been calling herself a sleaze for three albums now. I don't think it's about "cheating."
Somehow she reminds me of Kate Bush in this song. Can’t stop listening to her voice. So colorful and full of great energy ❤
I've been a marina fan since start of her career. but u know what this video reminds me of madonna's Frozen Music Video
"I played with your heart
And I could treat you better but I'm not that smart
You still mean everything to me"
This part always makes me cry
I love how she was humble enough to say that was inspired by Frozen from Madonna in this. It’s my favorite song from her. 🖤
vulnerable, raw, poetic
"I'll ruin you" is the hottest pick-up line ever tbh
UGH THIS SONG MAKES ME EMOTIONAL!
Warner are such a bad record label, she would've had more success if she was signed with a Universal label. I love this song by the way, is it the official second single?
yes and no, its the third single i believe. happy was the second
Derick Ma Thanks, I prefer this over Happy and Froot though!
They do have Universal in the UK I pass the headquarters in Kensington everyday. Ellie Goulding, Emeli Sande and Jessie J are all singed to Universal and are British.
***** British? I thought she was Welsh.
Britain covers Wales, Scotland and England. So she's British!
These madonna fans need to realize that madonna is like 3883838 years old and marina still did this video better
There's no need to be ageist though.
I love Marina but you can't talk about Madonna that way. She's a legend. Besides, Marina said she's inspired by her. Show some respect and don't judge people by their age.
Well said👏👏👏
Firsr of all fuck you, i am madonna fan and marina too ive loved her since electra heart!
Buy rebel heart btw!
Marina has said many times how much Madonna inspired her and that she is a huge fan.
And she is 56 btw. Unless you die first you will eventually reach that age to. It's not a big deal.
Marina is PURE Libra energy: "You still mean everything to me...BUT I wanna be freeee"🤣🤣💗
mom: what have you been doing
me: I've been doing things I shouldn't do..
mom: ok what are doing today instead of that
me: I'll ruin you
mom: O-O what have you been listening to
me: marina and the diamonds 😊
your name is life
Love your name :3
This woman is a goddess
Marina is love. Marina is life.
As a person who feels oppressed and trapped in relationships, I can relate to this song in a way. I don't want to limit my possibilities or sacrifice my future for anybody anymore. I'll accomplish all my goals independently and I enjoy my life this way. I embrace my uniqueness and my child-like outlook on life. I don't need a partner even though we all need affection. All my experiences with love have been negative but I've grown and matured, believe it or not. I want adventure and to keep daydreaming about fiction every second of my life, as well as advocating for veganism! It doesn't matter if I'm misunderstood as long as I understand myself. I will not be ruined but I do warn others before they try to make a future with me knowing we're too different.
I'm so exactly the same, been single for so long I can no longer imagine compromising as I'm perfectly fine making myself content.
Love with someone else hasn't been a walk in the park for me either but I've certainly learned to love myself and this is priceless.
Of course we all want love and affection but the reality of it far less enticing, as far as I'm concerned.
And similarly, my motto in life is "treasure the child within" :)
OMG THIIIISS!! THIS IS EXACTLY HOW I FEE. THANK YOU FOR PUTTING IT INTO WORDS
one of the best songs ever written
Paul Grant so true
FROOT- ELECTRA THEORYElectra faked her death and changed to become Marina, a sweet girl in love with a guy (Froot; first half of the song) but, he is an old lover of dear Electra (Better Than That; 'Youre just another in a long line of men she screwed, just another....) and she cant move on from being Electra, due to her acts (Im A Ruin; lyrics such as 'Imma ruin you'; first half) but she loves him (Im A Ruin; 'You still mean everything to me'). But due to this, she feels confused and feels sad because of Electra and Marina's mixed acts and attitude (Blue; 'I dont wanna feel blue anymore'). At first, Marina cant forgive Electra (Forget; 'Cause I cant forgive and I cant forget'). She really dosent want to be compared to Electra, a cheap shimmer and glitter (Solitaire). But in the middle of everything, she notices the bad out of other people and the bad in Marina, which is Electra (Savages; 'Underneath it all we're just savages). She later forgives her past life and finds the love she needed from the guy, the gold of her life (Gold) and married him, following a birth (Froot; second half 'Oh my body is ready' means their love and honeymoon, 'Oh my brances are heavy' can mean her womb is gaining weight because of the child she bears). Afterwards had La Dolche Vita, which is the sweet life. But later, the husband dies and sh knows it will also happen to her. This is the reason why she wants to be immortal (Immortal). But when she did die, she found peace and became happy (Happy).[ note ] i just made it up to make a connection to her previous album. dont worry, its just a theory.
+Baka Bernard wow it makes a lot of sense to me!!! nice!!!
WOW
yes preach
electra heart was just pretty good marketing and catchy songs, marina wrote and produced with other two people, hit song writers... now she is doing her thing alone. There is pretty much no relation between froot and electra heart besides they're marina's albums
***** I understand, and dont worry, its just a theory and it will stay as a theory :)
She looks so strong. I love this music and this music video. ❤️
Criminally underrated song
This video is like a mix of Frozen by Madonna & Wuthering Heights by Kate Bush and I love it.
Kate Bush is so important
There are no naked girls, no fast cars, no swimming pools. HOW DOES THIS VIDEO WORK?! I love it!
Happy 8 years old I'm a ruin and FROOT. ❤🎉 I MISS this era. Album roll out was fantastic, music was one of a kind.
Marina is like a vine, every year she gets better and more beautiful
Omg I love how simple yet symbolic the videos are *~* Well done, Marina♥
I FUCKING LOVE HER STYLE. EVERYTHING ABOUT HER IS JUST TOO UGH! I LOVE HER 😢😢
I abusolutely love the part when she sings:
"It doesn't feel right and it doesn't feel fair, when Im planning to move on and you're still standing there"
Its so beautiful
God I feel so touched with this song😭😭
A visually stunning video
this video was inspired on Wuthering Heights by Kate Bush and Frozen by Madonna, two legends and amazing artists as well, Marina is following their paths, I'm so proud! 💎👑
Thank u..u have sense
Con razón me recuerda la canción Frozen, mi tema favorito de Madona, y esta de Marina
!she is truly artist
+הנסיך הקטן ישראלית שאוהבת את מרינה! יש!
אני בן
ליטל מונסטר
אוי. תקשיב, אני מזה מצטערת! אבל עכשיו אני פי אלף יותר שמחה! לא רק מישהו מישראל שאוהב את מרינה, אלא גם בן! איפה שאני גרה, אף אחד לא מכיר אותה... סחתיין! (מזתומרת ליטל מונסטר?)
אה! ליטל מונסטר! מעריץ של ליידי גאגא! איזה סתומה אני (ואיזה טעם מושלם במוזיקה יש לך ) זאת ליידי גאגא בתמונה? איזה מהממת היא!
כן חח תודה על המחמאות . מרינה מושלמת אני אוהב את השירים שלה
I FINALLY FOUND THIS SONG AFTER 9 YEARS OMG
Ugh, she's amazing at everything she does. I LOVE YOU, MARINA!!
Dear lord. I hope to some day be as amazing as Marina. This was such a beautiful music video!
Simply genius! Pop music at is best. Marina is up among the big pop divas
Finally got to see Marina live. When she did this song she prolonged the "Yeahh, yeahhh, Ahh Ahh, yeaahh yeahhh, oooh oooh" part and got the audience to keep repeating it. Was class.
love it
very frozen-ish isnt it?
playmobil48 yes but good unlike lady gogooa copying attempts
somrazy3 why so much hate on gaga? she loves madonna why you can't see it
***** HAHAHAHA She loves Madonna and then gets all passive-aggressive when it comes to anything M-related. I know M is not precisely a gold coin and has bashed her for a while, but when she tried to make up for it everything Gaga did was get mad and ignore M's attempts pretending she was mocking her. Ultimately, Gaga must love Madonna or at least appreaciate her in some form since she finds lots of inspiration in her. I just like how Gaga is becoming a more mature artist and I feel like she's doing something on her own recently and not relying that much on publicity stunts, scandals and 'homaging' other artists.
you're so wrong that you feel you're right
yeaaah-e-yeahhhh, uhhhuhhhhh, ohhhoooo, YEAHHHHH!
listening to this song with headphones at a louder volume is so weird like it feels like the song is everywhere its hard to explain just try it
8D audio
" you still mean everything to me, but I wanna be free " it reminds me so much of a toxic friendship I had. I love her my 'friend' but I wanna get free of her negative shit. And I did it ! That makes me proud 💜
