This song is not only just musically flawless, but also paints a very accurate picture of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I now have an even deeper respect and love for Marina.
I've listened to Marina for years and it wasn't until i was diagnosed with OCD until I really realized how wrenching and accurate this song really is and its meaning. Never realized why it always brought a tear to my eye
Coming back to this song as an adult who has better control over their OCD now, this feels like a warm blanket. Marina's music helped me so much as a struggling teen with raging mental health issues. She always inspired me to remain sensitive and to not be afraid of being emotional.
Marina deserves all the success & more, it's just that I don't wan't annoying fans to ruin her music for me. For example, I used to really like Melanie but her fans really bugged me and I it kinda ruined my taste for Melanie. Marina is truly amazing and wonderful and I only wish the best for her,.
Every single time I watch this video, it breaks my heart. When she's putting the individual pieces together, I feel like it's the circumstances of life that make up little parts of us - how every screw is put in, the bars laid out the exact way... It's reminiscent of the way I see some of the crap that happens in people's lives. Blessings in disguise. The way the diamond comes together at the end, discernible only in the last 15 or so seconds, not perfectly aligned but still beautiful... I guess that's life. That's the big picture.
I think the song is about more than 1 thing, most of her songs are. But for me personally, it's like she wants to explain her anxiety. She is stuck inside a cycle of fear and she can't get out, in the night overthinking works even better than over day what sucks, on some days you are fine and everything is okay, on other days it's difficult just to breathe, on Sundays anxiety hits because you're anxious about Monday, anxiety makes you act/feel like you have an OCD often, you feel like people are staring and like your cheeks are red all the time and you may be not able to buy something in a supermarket, you always try to get out of a situation that you're anxious about.
You are right. This song is about what you’ve written. That OCD part hits too hard, also how many times I left the store because I felt like people were waiting and I was just blocking the aisle, the pressure was extremely overwhelming so I left with nothing.. I deal with severe anxiety, depression, ocd, Ed, bipolar and addictions so Marina’s songs feel like she wrote them for me to save me. Been a Diamond for over 10 years and always will be, she was my best friend when I was a teenager (TFJ and EH eras) and helped me become a 24 yr old adult I am today 💎🖤
@@eden_marie like any other disorder we spoke about. A person feels and acts on it, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to be diagnosed with it like ever. And every OCD is different, even the intrusive thoughts thing depends on a person, there’s no one definition of it. Yeah anxiety and OCD are two different things but they meet at certain points and have a lot of similarities. A lot of OCD develops from untreated anxiety. Unless you had something different in mind.
I mean she's not the only one,but there's a few people based on what i saw. Most underrated artist that i idolize talks about something controversial like mental health. And it helps people understand what it's like to be in a certain situation and i think that's good enough for me to deeply idolize her.
I can't believe i spent so many years of my life without hearing this album. It's one of my favorite albums ever and a criminally underrated pop masterpiece.
Throughout the video, she creates something, but in the end you just turn it off. You are weird. It's like, to leave without waiting for the ending of an interesting movie. Or to pose for a portrait, but in the end, leave money and go without having a look or... So strange
Literally I'll say I don't like a marina song, then I'll listen to it a few times, and it grows on me to where ITS MY FAVORITE SONG ON THE ENTIRE PLANET,
This song is the best representation of OCD in any song out there. It shows how sometimes just doing everyday things can be ruining by your brain just by one little epitome. Going to the supermarket, but if you don’t choose the _right_ packet, something bad will happen. Maybe they were just bad luck anyways? It’s a perfect example. You’re constantly worrying about that stuff- what feels right- what _is_ right, because if you choose wrong something terrible could happen. Thank you Marina for this masterpiece!
To me, this song is a perfect discription of a panic attack. It can mean other things to other people, but it just clicked one day in my head that this is the best way to explain what it's like.
Ha, it's funny you say that. I have a mental illness that causes me to have panic attacks. Often times when I go out in public I will wear a hood/hat and headphones to help myself stay calm. I also made a playlist of songs that keep me calm in public areas and this song is on it. It's very relaxing to me. :)
i am actually in love with this song. as a person with ocd, though what i get is pretty different to this, it makes me so happy that someone actually understands what it is, instead of the stereotype of being organised!! and its in such a good song too, i cant stop listening to it
KITTY SAME! Like this so describes my OCD. I always get nasty thoughts I hate. And I wish I could get rid of them forever but I can't. 😪 Same in the store. My OCD makes me panic in public. Like I freak out, and think what should I get? What should I do? I constantly feel like others are judging me. Their stares are so...Horrible.
As a guy with obsessive compulsive disorder, I relate to the lyrics of this song eerily well... Man, I wish Marina could be my psychiatrist. I heard she wanted to go into psychology if her musical career didn't work out, but thankfully it did work out. Yet, you can see her fascination with psychology and the human mind in several of her songs, like this one.
Flying Ninja tell me about it. I love FROOT so much; it caters to practically everything I seek in music, both in terms of sound and lyrics. I love songs that are deep and analytical ❤️
marina's music has been such a constant in my life. been listening since I was about 11 years old (am 23 now) and I don't even know how to describe how much her music means to me. made me feel less alone, put sounds and lyrics to emotions I couldn't describe and helped me work through that shizz and was a comforting reassurance. even the super-sad songs were such a comfort because music is a safe space in which to feel whatever you're feeling. her style has grown so much, and it was so wonderful to me that her songs had describing new emotions that I had been experiencing as well, new concepts that I had been considering and that always feels scary when you do it alone so to be able to form a soundtrack to it is amazing and to be reminded that anything you feel or struggle with, others also feel similar things as well. we are never truly alone ever. the raw pain and loneliness in the earlier albums have been softened by a whole lot of tenderness, empathy, love for people and humanity and introspection and while the change in tone is no less beautiful, I think it is pretty friggin cool how if you listen to her albums from her oldest to her newest work, you can hear the emotional growth so very tangibly. i think artists sharing their work like this is just so powerful, we need 'em, and Marina is truly one of the Greats. bless.
To me this song has many meanings, just as it does for her and many others. To me it's about mental illness. Depression, anxiety, OCD, ect. It fits to many illnesses to be able to relate to different people. It's not just about one thing. It can be seen many different ways.
I heard this live during Neon Nature. When I heard this, I literally cried. Like, when you heard this video for the first time, i didnt even cry. When I heard it live, I gained so much appreciation. Like holy fuck.
+Dystopian Palace I had the chance of listening to it live on 2012 during the Electra Heart tour, I was so hoping to hear it and it indeed made me sob a lot.
Me encanta como se ve en este video... Se ve tan sencilla, tan cercana, tan simple como esta vestida, siento que estuviera viéndome a mi misma, sin mencionar la canción que es increíble
At the beginning I figured this was supposed to be like displaying OCD in a way, with her making everything fit in the shapes but in a way, she's showing that her "obsession" is making this diamond, and diamonds are both her fans and her family supporting her. Everyone has their obsessions. Marina's is making songs and pleasing her diamonds.
Marina is such an amazing vocalist, she just makes me feel so nostalgic and I don't know why. I can't help but get chills when listening to her music, it feels ethereal, otherworldly, I'm in love with it.
@Кирилл No Pix her words and her songs, she doesn’t write like other artists she truly puts her words and heart into her songs, making them relatable ♥️
OMGGGGGGGGGGG I SAW HER THEN AS WELLLLLL OMGGGGGGTGGGGGGGVGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
i used to think this song was painful bc it was kind of a abusive relationship where they are very poor and have to steal food for living and live between love and hate but now thinking if it a little bit more its even more painful bc its a representation of anxiety all the thoughts in her head and how she feels... all the self shame hate and nerves all over the place... even sadder... thanks marina im at grammar class and about to cry
I know marina is probably never going to read this but I just want to say thank you this song means so much to me. I had OCD since I was 8 y/o I didn' t get treatment till I was 18. This song was something that keept me srong when times were bad. My illness got so bad when I was 15 that I couldn't get out of house or even get up from bed, my life was one compulsion after another and lots of your songs made me not want to gave up. My OCD always went hand to hand with my Anorexia at my worst I weighted 50kg to haight of 183cm. And this was the only song that describes how I felt, I can't help but cry when part with crackers comes up bescause it's so fucking real. I just want to say thank you for making this song.
got diagnosed with ocd yesterday and immediately had to listen to this. one of my absolute favorite songs marina has ever done and now i can relate to it even more.
"Supermarket, oh, what packet of crackers to pick? They're all the same, one brand, one name, but really they're not Look, look, just choose something quick People are staring, time ticker-quicking, skin is on fire Just choose something, something, something Pressure overwhelming Next minute, I am turning out of the door Facing one week without food A day, a day, when things, things are pretty bad But don't let it make you feel sad The crackers were probably bad luck anyway." this is me everytime in the supermarket, and i hate it.
the diamond a t the end though omg that was cool i love this song because it shows social anxiety PERFECTLY with the supermarket scene and it breaks my heart to listen to the lyrics every time
Marina, unlike some of others "popstars", is very honest and wrote her songs herself. Also, she doesn't talk about money and her love story in her songs, but topics like anxiety or here, OCD. That's some of the many reasons I love her. She's a great artist that keeps music alive today.
When she says the lyric: "I wanna erase every nasty thought that bugs me everyday of every week" She's mean intrusive thougts, they can get very bad. Look up OCD and you'll know what I mean.
she got me through my teenage years and i’m a hardcore fan again at the age of 24. i feel like myself listening to her again, an old friend singing to me telling me everything will be okay
I remember this album came out before everyone was talking about anxiety and mental health stuff and this was really courageous and vunerable that people could relate to
I personally love how today she still keeps an original and unique style. Starting in the lates 00’s must have been difficult to stay true to herself as an artist with the pressure from labels and producers to make music like Lady Gaga or Rihanna were doing that time.
this song.... marina .. we need to hang out again.. was nice meeting you in Manchester all those years ago. honestly this song .. when i feel crap i listen to this.. song is my go too. but honestly i have always connected with your music
I feel that Marina is one of today's best musician and lyricist. Her lyrics incorporates layers of deep meaning, themes that are rarely tackled and are hardly ever repetitive, unlike the majority on the music. The production is simple yet pure bliss, you just get hooked on her songs at the very first play, when it usually takes a few listens for earworms to work. And that voice.... it's like a musically apt version of Katy Perry's voice. It seems that the world is not ready to embrace her, and that is why she is still an indie artist until now.
How can I listen to this song and watch the video and not start crying? The video is just amazing. Also the firs one in this channel. The song was maybe destined to be about me. And always makes me feel less lonely, but also so lonely. Like, I feel understood, but I think, Is this ever going to stop?
everytime I listen to this song I get chills and it feels like I've never heard the song before and I fall in love with it again. Marina is so talented to do something like that.
Going back to this video gets me really emotional for some odd reason. I have never loved an artist more than i love Marina. I'm so proud on where she is now and how much her music has progressed. I don't think I have 1 Marina song that I don't like and that's very rare for me because I am picky. I am so excited on what she has in store and for FROOT to come out! I only see Marina getter better by album. Marina is such a sweet heart and has such an amazing personality. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND THANK YOU FOR GETTING ME THROUGH HARD TIMES WITH YOUR MUSIC! ❤️ I almost feel as though she was there for me with every song and that it's great that I could relate to so many. I'm happy to be considered a diamond.
I love how the diamond pieces in the end seem to be out of place, but when the lights go off, we get this beautiful, colorful, perfect diamond shining in the dark. Symbolic, and very deep lyrics as well. Marina is very talented.

This song plays in my mind in a good way everyday :) i have to play it throughout my house lol Love you Marina!
When you dont listen to her for like 2 months and you hear her song and get obsessed with her again
Yes
literally me rn. I can't stop playing TFJ since last friday lmao
THANK GOODNESS IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHOSE HERE IN 2021
I’m listening to the whole album first time rn
Man, it's been about 9 years for me. I just thought of her out of nowhere and now I'm binging.
The whole time I was like what the heck is she doing until the very last seconds... Marina you never cease to amaze me!
It's scary how awesome she is.
Anto Soiledis CORRECT
"Supermarket, oh, what packet of crackers to pick?
They're all the same, one brand, one name, but really they're not
Look, look, just choose something quick
People are staring, time ticker-quicking, skin is on fire
Just choose something, something, something
Pressure overwhelming
Next minute, I am turning out of the door
Facing one week without food
A day, a day, when things, things are pretty bad
But don't let it make you feel sad
The crackers were probably bad luck anyway."
this is me everytime in the supermarket, and i hate it.
this video saved/ changed so many lives
After listening to Marina for 3 years this song still has such a powerful impact truly never gets old
My highschool plays music during class exchange and this song always played!! And I'm ... Obsessed with marina
beautiful . Iconic . Mesmerizing. Never the same . Totally unique . Show stopper . Fresh . Iconic .
STILL one of the greatest songs i have ever had the pleasure of hearing
DOES ANYONE HEAR THE WHISPERS IN THE BACKGROUND OF THIS SONG ITS AWESOMELY SCARY AS SHIT
i hear 'em as well
imagine hearing them when you have headphones in during study hall and you keep thinking people are talking to you >_
OMG it's 12 in the morning here and I am on my headphone. and I am ALONE.
paula escobedo i cant hear them what are they saying???
CyanPancake juts vocalizing,
the diamond a t the end though omg that was cool
i love this song because it shows social anxiety PERFECTLY with the supermarket scene and it breaks my heart to listen to the lyrics every time
Está mujer es única , su música es única , ella es única , ella es una reina
So like are we not gonna mention that her hair is the definition of perfection in this video.....?
Cheshire Cat she is the definition of perfect
Marina, unlike some of others "popstars", is very honest and wrote her songs herself. Also, she doesn't talk about money and her love story in her songs, but topics like anxiety or here, OCD.
That's some of the many reasons I love her. She's a great artist that keeps music alive today.
This was amazing and truly magical she is an artist 👩🎨 👩🎤 in every shape and form I love her so much
I'm brand new to Marina... dunno what stone I've been living under?! Can't stop listening!!!
The 6 year anniversary is tomorrow. Yay for marina! We've been obsessed with you for 6 years and hopefully 6 more. I know that was cheesy.
When she says the lyric: "I wanna erase every nasty thought that bugs me everyday of every week"
She's mean intrusive thougts, they can get very bad. Look up OCD and you'll know what I mean.
intrusive thoughts can happen w other disorders right?
I honestly think this whole song is about OCD and anxiety
Well, yeah. She references it explicitly in the lyrics.
I love this song, helps me feel less alone with intrusive thoughts
No shit
Me tryna install ikea furniture😔
I BUST OUT LAUGHING WHEN I READ THIS.
You made my night
at least it comes out to look like a heart
+Cassidy Dennise I think its supposed to be a diamond
+Nubia Clermont Hahahaha sorry i meant a diamond
+Isabella Dang AHHAHHA!! :D I don't even try. I always escape when Ikea furnitures comes...
If u are listening this in 2020 let me tell u that u are the best person in the world
thanks lol :p
2021 :p
I needed this today thank you
*2021
Getting ready to see her in 2022, Have fun
her voice when she says "creep"
she got me through my teenage years and i’m a hardcore fan again at the age of 24. i feel like myself listening to her again, an old friend singing to me telling me everything will be okay
FETUS MARINA OMG ITS 2015 BUT I STILL LISTEN TO THIS EVERYDAY IM OBSESSED WITH IT
Weeaboo Trash is it your OBSESSION?
*wins award for least original comment*
Powerful staff. So nostalgic. Magic song.
I remember this album came out before everyone was talking about anxiety and mental health stuff and this was really courageous and vunerable that people could relate to
That supermarket verse is one of the most moving things I've heard.
Why no one talks about the whispers at 1:03? I think they represent ocd thoughts
And this marked the start of an unnoticed era.
I personally love how today she still keeps an original and unique style. Starting in the lates 00’s must have been difficult to stay true to herself as an artist with the pressure from labels and producers to make music like Lady Gaga or Rihanna were doing that time.
The hair in the beginning is so amazing omg
I find this video actually really good. Personally I think it was about someone being obsessed to make the diamond-thing perfect.
Funny.;)
No diamond is perfect :')
I was never interested in playing the piano but after hearing this song I might do it. This song it's just beautiful
This song was just a fun song to sing when I was 8, now it’s become my reality 😪
❤️
Me too. I wish you the best. From the bottom of my heart.
forever obssessed with 1:55 to 2:30 ish
OBSESSIONS AYYY
ah ah ah ah ~~~~
give me chills!!!
listen to her singing that part live at the nnt in boston
This song hits home for me on so many levels. Thank you for painting it so well with your thoughts and sounds. Xo
as someone with ocd this song saved my life thank you marina
this song.... marina .. we need to hang out again.. was nice meeting you in Manchester all those years ago. honestly this song .. when i feel crap i listen to this.. song is my go too. but honestly i have always connected with your music
3:19 That have to be in a museum
"I'm a Marina you are the Diamonds!"
🥺🥺🥺
This encapsulate my high school sadness, I can feel it today after 12 years
I feel that Marina is one of today's best musician and lyricist. Her lyrics incorporates layers of deep meaning, themes that are rarely tackled and are hardly ever repetitive, unlike the majority on the music. The production is simple yet pure bliss, you just get hooked on her songs at the very first play, when it usually takes a few listens for earworms to work. And that voice.... it's like a musically apt version of Katy Perry's voice. It seems that the world is not ready to embrace her, and that is why she is still an indie artist until now.
You nailed it quite a bit
I feel like she will be really appriciated in the future
How can I listen to this song and watch the video and not start crying?
The video is just amazing. Also the firs one in this channel.
The song was maybe destined to be about me. And always makes me feel less lonely, but also so lonely. Like, I feel understood, but I think, Is this ever going to stop?
I'm welling up too and I'm a guy :/ Ok I've had a few drinks but still
so many tears have been shed to this song
Been my favourite song for 4 years. It will always be
everytime I listen to this song I get chills and it feels like I've never heard the song before and I fall in love with it again. Marina is so talented to do something like that.
Going back to this video gets me really emotional for some odd reason. I have never loved an artist more than i love Marina. I'm so proud on where she is now and how much her music has progressed. I don't think I have 1 Marina song that I don't like and that's very rare for me because I am picky. I am so excited on what she has in store and for FROOT to come out! I only see Marina getter better by album. Marina is such a sweet heart and has such an amazing personality. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND THANK YOU FOR GETTING ME THROUGH HARD TIMES WITH YOUR MUSIC! ❤️ I almost feel as though she was there for me with every song and that it's great that I could relate to so many. I'm happy to be considered a diamond.
I come 12 years later, and she became my favorite singer, I hope she does better in the future in her career, she deserves more
ME TOO..MARINA YOU WERE ALWAYS THERE!!!!!!!!!! ALWAYS THERE FOR ME..THANK YOU MARINA!
Marina is a genius for making this masterpiece
I love how the diamond pieces in the end seem to be out of place, but when the lights go off, we get this beautiful, colorful, perfect diamond shining in the dark. Symbolic, and very deep lyrics as well. Marina is very talented.
Siempre vuelvo a esta canción, triste, contento, enojado, pensativo o como sea. De alguna forma se ajusta siempre a cómo me siento.
I love how all the small pieces come together at the end. It says a lot.
I've been listening to her since early 2012. I decided to watch all her videos again and am falling in love with her all over again
1:37 My fave part. That laugh 💎
a little flower that sings beautiful♡♡
I am obsessed with this artist , song and video.
I can't stop listening to obsessions
Takes me to the best time of my life. I played this nonstop. Wow. I love you so much M. You have no idea.
HOLY SHIT 3:26 THAT IS ART! I hope they kept that!
One of the most special songs ever 🫶 the end of the video, literally a masterpiece. 💎
