Melanie makes me feel so good about myself, Orange Juice, Strawberry Shortcake, and now Moon Cycle. Sobbing right now.

[giddyghoul]

"womb shedding any lessons,
making room for blessings" this song is beautiful 😭❤️❤️

[florencebutterfly]

It feels so weird and exciting when you're an adult who have been listening to Mel's music since you were in your preteen. 😭😭💗

[Silliestfriend]

This song is so beautiful, the way they talk about pregnancy, menstruation and sex can just change a whole point of you, seriously this woman is amazing.

This song makes me feel so much more secure about my own body honestly. Normally I think of my period as it's own form of cosmic horror but it's so calming to hear her talk about it as an ethereal thing. I hope I dont sound too cheesy but this is really helping me appreciate my body and make peace with periods. This song really makes me feel ethereal and sacred<3 thank u mel:)

Lyrics of this artwork:

Why you always act so serious
I said, baby boy you know I’m on my period, Yuh
He bit the cherry down, he’s delirious
Seeing red figures in his mirrors and
Acting like a real tough, furious
Blood swimming turned him amphibious
He says he doesn’t care, that he’s into this
It happens every time the new season hits

Skin ready for my heavy daily creme
I keep it handy, womb shedding any lessons
Making room for blessings
Juice melting like raspberry pomegranate
It’s so scary how my aura got him howling
At my moon cycle baby

Now he kissing on the ground that I walk on
Tryna get another taste but I’m all cramped up
Pain like a blade on the front lawn
But I don’t give a fuck cause I’m so strong
I don’t gotta act I’m Ethereous
I could win a fight on my period, matter fact
Right now, I could build a pyramid
You’re messin with my cycle, that is dangerous

Skin ready for my heavy daily creme
I keep it handy, womb shedding any lessons
Making room for blessings
Juice melting like raspberry pomegranate
It’s so scary how my aura got him howling
At my moon cycle baby

Moon cycle baby
Moon cycle baby
Moon cycle baby
✨✨

Love it ♡ how she chose this topic that can be taken with lots of judgement but its just accepting and embracing our bodies and our nature, and not shaming for it. Not something easy to do, and she've done it so beautifully ♡

[kurokami_]

this song is so criminally underrated and overhated for no reason

[shere]

love the way she took something like menstruation and turned it into a beautiful song, this is not something to feel ashamed of, it represents life and how weird and great it is, I’m gatekeeping this song if y’all don’t like it

"I wrote this song in the portal room alone over one of the instrumental tracks in that folder that was sent to me. It was a guitar loop by Pearl Lion. On each of my albums I like to include at least one "taboo" song about something many people deal with but no one talks about in music. I wanted to write a fun, lighthearted, song about being a person who experiences menstruation. How blood represents vitality and life. I wanted the chorus to be pretty and to use analogies for bleeding that were sweet. "Juice melting like raspberry, pomegranate it's so scary, how my aura got him howling at my moon cycle baby." The rumbling sounds that lead into the song are my actual period cramps I recorded on my phone. With the conflict of patriarchal society brainwashing straight cis men to believe they should have any kind of say over other people's bodies, and also the general kind of ick that they get from the discussion of menstruation, I wanted to make the song extra uncomfy for them by going on to describe a man who lives for period sex!" - Mel in an interview

[MaidaWeightman]

This song for some reason soothes cramps for me. Maybe because my breathing fits the song more? Whatever it is, it works absolute magic lol

Lyrics:

"Why you always act so serious?"
I said, "Baby boy, you know I'm on my period, "
Yeah
He bit the cherry down, he's delirious
Seeing red figures in his mirrors and
Acting like a real tough, furious
Blood swimming, turn him amphibious
He says he doesn't care, that he's into this
It happens every time a new season hits

Skin ready for my heavy daily crème
I keep it handy, womb shedding
Any lessons, making room for blessings
Juice melting like raspberry
Pomegranate. It's so scary
How my aura got him howling at my moon cycle, baby

Now he kissing on the ground that I walk on
Tryna get another taste, but I'm all cramped up
Pain like a blade on the front lawn
But I don't give a fuck 'cause I'm so strong
I don't gotta act, I'm ethereous
I could win a fight on my period
Matter of fact, right now, I could build a pyramid
You messing with my cycle, that is dangerous

Skin ready for my heavy daily crème
I keep it handy, womb shedding
Any lessons, making room for blessings
Juice melting like raspberry
Pomegranate. It's so scary
How my aura got him howling at my moon cycle, baby

Moon cycle, baby
Moon cycle, baby
Moon cycle, baby
Moon cycle, baby

[lauraelenaarroyorivera]

I just love the "juice melting like raspberry pomegranate" line, I wrote a poem about this the last year, and I used the same to describe it. "Pure puree of cranberries and pomegranate" idk it makes me happy to see something similar made by Mel.

[ezraelysium]

Ughh moon cycle number 1 portals song! 🌸

[bryanpribeiro]

I love how she used analogies to speak in such an empowering way about such a delicate cycle and sexual intercourse during this period. It's a work of art 🥺💖

[bewitchedd]

i don't get why people hate this?? this is an actual BOP. POP OFF MELANIE, WE <3 YOU!!

[_.SNAILS._]

“Making room for blessings”
the fact that she refers to babies as “blessings” just makes my heart happy 🩷

[Hoorali]

I love how she added her actual period cramps and put it in this song to piss men off she makes music so unreal lmao😭

[thesunispretty]

can confidently say i’ve never doubted this song. it’s an amazing thing to be comfortable with how your body operates and the sheer gift of being able to produce 🌱
