can we appreciate the fact Mel is touring, making MV’s, making perfume, making merch. AND going on back to back tours!?

[vantongerenfamily]

the way she uses like a “video game” type visual to represent the shit she’s been enduring as if people are just “pushing buttons” to control her is so impressive and hits so deep.

[Littlebdybigheart]

oh my gosh “chase them for a picture” and “call them a btch for being human” is so true bc in the past people have just tooken pics of/with her without permission, then getting upset when she explains how it makes her feel

[Melanies.nymph]

The part where it says “call them a b for being human” really touched me. Once celebrities set boundaries their fans get upset even though celebrities are also humans and have the right to express their emotions and speak up when they feel uncomfortable with certain things. I love you Mel! Your songs have such deep meanings and really tell an amazing story💕

[Delijahoxx]

Also, the scene in which the dancers fall dramaticaly off the hill, showing how dramatic some fans are when singers set boundaries is portrated so well<3 Everyone is only human and deserving of respect.

[halliefaithh]

It’s so cool how she leaves little references from her old songs like the double braids reminded me of “class fight” and her tears filling up the room reminds me of “crybaby!”

[SdanThFrst]

When it says ‘Call them demonic’ I think since Melanie is in her portals album some fans are calling her demonic from being a nymph and things. Like they say Mel’s new form is ‘scary’ or ‘demon-like’ is what she was referring to. Just a theory tho

[yUmMy.ReFrIgErAtOrS]

Incase y'all want the lyrics


Follow the tunnel into the portal
Lay all your burdens to rest
Drink from the fountain, death's holy water
Watch as you're put to the test
I make them panic, it's satanic how I bend my body
Yeah, you can look, but you can't touch, I'm not just anybody
Caught in the haze and hypnotized and you're too thirsty
Open your view and you will find, stop searching
Eyes on the prize, thought the cherry would be better than the pie
You like that, like that, that, like that
That's your demise, yeah, you hold me like you're rushing to my thighs
Too fast, too fast, fast, too fast
But your focus is empty, tunnel vision then dead me
Honeysuckle and fresh meat, but I'm more than that, more than that
Playing house to distract me, but you're no good at acting
Obvious what you're after, and I'm more than that, more than that
And I'm more than that, more than that
They always hustle for the pussy, so they'll never get it
I make them tumble down the hill they climbed, I don't regret it
I saw that trick fall out your sleeve, and I'm so certain
You hum a tune I don't believe, and it ain't working
Eyes on the prize, thought the cherry would be better than the pie
You like that, like that, that, like that
That's your demise, yeah, you hold me like you're rushing to my thighs
Too fast, too fast, fast, too fast
But your focus is empty, tunnel vision then dead me
Honeysuckle and fresh meat, but I'm more than that, more than that
Playing house to distract me, but you're no good at acting
Obvious what you're after, and I'm more than that, more than that
And I'm more than that, more than that
Crossing my heart, I'd rather die (oh, oh)
Than be the needle in your eye (oh, oh)
Show me how far obsession goes (oh, oh)
Could've been more, now we'll never know

[oceanaheartsong]

honored to play the ‘fan girl’ at the end. had so much fun 🩷 melanie is a tru visionary.

[Chloe-qjhu]

i love how its a video game showing how she feels being controlled by everyone. your so creative mel

[MochaMoonArt]

Can we all agree nymph looks so cute in this?❤️‍🩹

[pumpkinpopz]

HELP WHY IS THIS ACTUALLY SO GOOD 😭 🖐️-
THIS IS MY FIRST TIME LISTENING TO PORTALS AFTER ONLY LISTENING TO K-12 AND CRYBABY, AND THIS IS MY FAVORITE ALBUM NOW 😭 😭

[tommyduffy]

I'm a 42 year old metal fan. Took my daughter to see Melanie live in Dublin....she puts on an amazing show .. fantastic talent I was well impressed

[boba_kai]

“Call them a b for being a human” “you made them very upset” this is touching my heart omg. Keep up the good work Melanie can’t wait to see you xoxo

[livvyplayz-fs]

I can’t explain how much I love Melanie Martinez just with words

[lovelilsy_]

i absolutely LOVE how she portrayed her obsessive fan base in this mv as a video game. it perfectly describes it. she is so smart and this is definitely my fav mv so far on this album. congrats on making another beautiful music video. te amo <33

[ygsprincxss]

woahh i loved how the theme was like a video game where people are trying to control your life just because you're a "celebrity" trying to tell you what you can and can't do. the "call them a bitch for being human" part really struck me. i know how much you recieved backlash for setting boundaries and i'm proud of you. continue to set those boundaries and let those people know that you're not a puppet to be toyed with.

[Kki_Gacha]

I love how she represents herself like a video game. She’s showing how people think they can just push her buttons and do whatever they want, forgetting she’s a real person with feelings. She is making a representation of how people think they can control her, and also all the shit she’s been through. And when the person in the last bit gets a game over its representing that people online can be so cruel.

[kyokakarma]

i love that she added the section that was like: ‘you made them upset’ as a reference to crybaby, like reminding us that its still crybaby’s soul, just in another form. shes a creative genius.

[Stranger-zhos]

⚠⚠⚠EARTHLINGS PLS READ ⚠⚠⚠
Yall, I just checked "Album of the year" and people are already review bombing her stuff and calling her a u know what. Portals and Crybaby arn't looking too hot rn im saddened, disgusted, and kinda scared. If anyone wants to help create and account on "Album of the year" and give Melanie good reviews. Don't listen to what haters say. If at any point it says "Spam control enabled" go give 100s on random peoples albums until it lets u review Melanie. Im not letting Melaie go down like this so Earthlings unite and save mel's reputation as a thank u for everything she has done for us.
