Marina & The Diamonds-Fear and Loathing

I do not own the rights of this song/picture...

[arilyhernando]

this song is over 6 minutes long but it's still never long enough

[thewitchscabin.official]

The last part was so creepy, but when I learned that it's Marina's grandma... So sweet!

[BonoLightier]

This is forever my favorite song of hers. I listened to Electra Heart when I was in my senior year in high school; I was a depressive, in the closet and having trouble with my grades. Now, I graduated college and I landed on my first job. This album still brings back so many memories of being a loser in high school. I love it

[graciedreams]

the end is marinas grandma singing in her kitchen

[alissaride]

i dont listen to her much anymore because ive become a much happier and positive person, but at one point i knew every single one of her songs and she was one of my favorite people in the world because her music was some of the most relatable stuff i've ever heard. sometimes i come back and visit her like an od friend when i'm feeling down or insecure to remind myself i'm not alone. bless you marina, you saved me

[Narukashi]

Do y'all even know how hard this hits. Lyrics, music, voice--god those soprano notes make me melt. I don't think I'll ever not cry when I sing along.

[theamvgirlx]

I REALLY feel this. I’m always waging a massive war, scared and angry and bitter towards this planet rightly or wrongly. That projection and rage needed to go somewhere so it ruins my relationships. Even when all I want to do is be great, be seen, love and be loved, I’m always defensive and angry and feel attacked. Not because I feel like everything is about me but because being singled out and criticised is what I’m used to.

[pokemonparty]

"I desire to see sweet fairies
And a magic dance from an exotic body
To caress black hair
To kiss ash lips
A song from Algiers
The song of the camel keeper
In a sweet African rhythm"

[arisseis]

This song never fails to calm me down whenever I feel insecure about anything. There's something in the melody, in her voice, in the lyrics telling me everything will be okay 💓

[calebainsworth]

The best thing "Electra Heart" Marina has done....fucking stunning stuff.

[MaresHolly]

Bruh I was watching vampire diaries with my sister, I ignored the rest of the show when I heard the oooo from this song. I WAS LIKE I ONOW THAT VOICE AND SONG

[marinasplanet]

Lyrics:
I've lived a lot of different lives
Been different people many times
I live my life in bitterness
And fill my heart with emptiness
And now I see
I see it for the first time
There is no crime in being kind
Not everyone is out to screw you over
Maybe yeah just maybe they just wanna get to know you~
Hmmmm Hmmm mmmm
And now the time is here
Baby you don't have to live your life
In fear and the sky is clear
Is clear of fear
Don't wanna live in Fear and Loathing I wanna feel like I am floating
Instead of constantly exploding
In fear and loathing
Hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hmm mmm
Got different people inside my head
I wonder which one that they'd like best
Im done with tryna have it all
And ending up with not much at all
Hmm hmm. Mmmm
And now the time is here
Baby you don't have to live your life in fear
And the sky is clear
Is clear of fear
Of fear
Don't wanna live in fear and loathing
I wanna feel like I am floating
Instead of constantly exploding
In fear and loathing
Hmm hmm mmm hmm mmm
And when the time comes along
And the lights run out
I know that I will go on when they blow me out
Hmm mmm mm hmmm hmm
Don't wanna live in fear and loathing I Wanna feel like I am floating
Instead of constantly exploding
In fear and loathing
I wanna be comeplety weightless
I want to touch the edge of greatness
Don't wanna be comeplety fateless
Comeplety dateless
Hmm hmm hmm hmmm hmmmm
When the time comes around
When the lights will go out
When the time comes around
When the lights they go out
English Translation of what Marina's grandma is saying:
I crave to see sweet faries
To see from exotic bodies, magic dance
To caress. Black hair
To kiss honey lips
A song from Alegria
A Kamilieri's song
In a sweet african hymn
Greek translation:
Λαχταρά να δω γλυκό
Για να δείτε από εξωτικά σώματα έναν μαγικό χορό Να χαϊδεύσει τα μαύρα μαλλιά για να φιλήσει τα χείλη του μελιού, ένα τραγούδι από το τραγούδι της Alegria a Kamilieri σε μια γλυκιά Αφρική

This song touches me a lot, I really identify with it, and I was listening to it in moments that were very striking for me in early 2018 (the year I became a totally Marina fan).
I feel that I will still listen to this song a lot at different times.
It reminds me of things I've done, and things I'll never be .. (a primadonna or a homewrecker maybe ... if you're a fan of the marina, you understand).
Electra Heart in general is an album that touches me a lot and in Fear and Loathing is the culmination of it. I love u Marina <3


ps: the end of the song is really perfect.

[TheDrako]

as a Greek person, marina is the only thing that makes me proud of my country .

[haechuus]

I love the way she says of fear at 2:47 idk why lol

[terencellena]

I've lived a lot of different lives
Been different people many times
I live my life in bitterness
And fill my heart with emptiness

And now I see, I see it for the first time
There is no crime in being kind
Not everyone is out to screw you over
Maybe, oh just maybe they just wanna get to know ya

Now the time is here
Baby, you don't have to live your life in fear
And the sky is clear
Is clear of fear

Don't wanna live in fear and loathing
I wanna feel like I am floating
Instead of constantly exploding
In fear and loathing

Got different people inside my head
I wonder which one that they like best
I'm done with tryin' to have it all
And endin' up with not much at all

And now the time is here
Baby you don't have to live your life in fear
And the sky is clear
Is clear of fear
Of fear

Don't wanna live in fear and loathing
I wanna feel like I am floating
Instead of constantly exploding
In fear and loathing

And when the time comes along and the lights run out
I know where I will belong when they blow me out

Don't wanna live in fear and loathing
I wanna feel like I am floating
Instead of constantly exploding
In fear and loathing

I wanna be completely weightless
I wanna touch the edge of greatness
Don't wanna be completely faithless
Completely faithless

When the time comes around
When the lights will go out
When the time comes around
When the lights they go out

This song never fails to make me sob like a gd baby

One of my favorite personal playlist song transitions is Running Up That Hill into this :)

[OrbitFallenAngel]

My new favorite song, thanks to The Vampire Diaries...
I love her voice it's so unique and yes this song is dark and kinda depressing.
But it's very relatable...in so many ways. ♾

[BeniGabr]

The lyrics describes my life.
Like, a hundred percent.
