Mars Argo - A Okay

[Scooblique]

Think about the lyrics. Mars is talking about how she was confused about her point of view (because of her parents influence -- she was rich growing up because of her dad's money, they sheltered her from video games etc. until she left home) until "you" came along. MOST of her songs are about a change in her life, or love, or how things are different due to this one person. It's fairly obvious this person is Titanic. She says that Titanic influenced her life/POV until she was 'A-OK'. We obviously know that this is completely untrue, now, and he was literally grooming her and abusing her and putting her under mental stress... My idea is that Mars was fairly easy to manipulate to his whims, and she came out on the other side incredibly damaged after that... I feel so bad for her. I hope that one day, she'll actually be A-Okay.

Lyrics:

I grew up in a home where emotion means nothing
When your heart is a stone and feel numb to it beating
Mommy taught me to marry a man for his money
Daddy taught me never rely on anybody
I was so confused about my point of view
I didn't know the truth until I met you
And everything was okay
Everything is a okay
Find someone who thinks the same and makes you feel okay
I was told he was unmotivated and lazy
But I'd rather be happy together than crazy
If you can choose who to love, then take the money and run
Little girl, little girl
Remember A = A
You don't need his love anyway
Oh, little girl
I was so confused about my point of view
I didn't know the truth until I met you
And everything was okay
Everything is a okay
Find someone who thinks the same and makes you feel okay
Everything is okay
Everything is a okay
Find someone who thinks the same and makes you feel okay

her voice just feels like a dream that i'll never have to me
and i dont mean that i wont be able to sing like her, thats just what her voice makes me think of, a forbidden dream

This is so late 00s in all the good ways. I guess it's late enough now to be nostalgic for that period

[jet]

this is absolute favourite of her songs!

[louizeramos]

"find someone who thinks the same and makes you feel okay" I'LL TRY

[caliavocado]

person: POPPY SAID A-OKAY ONE TIME!!!
me: *laughs bc they don't see the other argo song references in poppy's vids*

[therealjamespotter]

I listened to this song before I found about what happened with her and Titanic, and even then, I thought something was off about the way she said ‘Everything is a-okay’ and thought there was hidden meaning and definitely didn’t think anything was okay and she was going through some shit. Looked it up, and I was right. No one here really talked about how you can hear the pain when she says that line.

Reminds me of a 90s punk band like jack off jills or throwing muses

For anyone who doesn't know.. Shes back!!!!

"And everything was all gay"

[yourlittlesparkle]

"Everything's going to be A-OK"

[HopAndLockDropSoppityPop]

one thing everyone leaves out in the connection between Mars and Poppy is that in one of Poppy's videos she said "everything is a-okay"
