^Meh. Hardly worthy of a "Part 3" credit.

I like it! Her voice sounds so soft and light. She's stunning too in the video, obviously

I can't get enough of 'Starring Role' and 'Fear & Loathing', her voice is just to die for and her lyrics are utterly compelling.

by **Vindrag** » Fri Dec 16, 2011 10:32 pm

I liked that! Too bad it wasn't a full song. Sounds very interesting!

Radioactive is a great pop tune, Fear And Loathing even better. Starring Role has grown a little bit, a good album track - but if there's better material, I would not mind if they leave it behind.

The Archetypes may be the Intro of the Album or not?
It could possibly be , because you can't define this as a song, so it is probably the intro of the album.

But I like it, it's strange and mysterious .

fear and loathing is absolutely incredible! makes you feel so good and the message is quite amazing. Radioactive is also a great dance song; i'm glad i discovered her this year

Been building a project called "The Archetypes" since March 2011. I shot it myself across North America and Europe over 7 months.

I wish she'd stop fannying around :roll:

Just bring us a hot album and promote your ass off.

This have reached over 100 plays on my iTunes during this week only. Translated to Swedish, the lyrics make such an impact. This is the Marina I fell in love with.

"Idle teen" :cry:

I wonder how far she'll go down this road, loving it thus far.

I actually don't agree.

Although I'm not really sure if the concept she's planned is right for her right now, it sounds a bit confusing, but I hope she'll pull it through.

I think it's great to see her experimenting, and that although being a pop artist tries to add some artistic value into her music.

I need a new single.

Yes! Me too! Hoping for a single in the beginning of february and the album in march. I'm getting really excited for her now.

Starring Role: Its nice. Not "crazy" about it though. You can feel that Marina wants to retain her type of singing, the thing that makes her unique. But the music is too monotonous to complement that. Still, it works at some level.

Radioactive: Not the direction I wanted Marina to take, but this song is awesome! If someone told me Marina was going the trance-y dance way, I would have barfed a little in my mouth. But this song has something about it. Its catchy, yet the pace of the song lets your groove in your seat. This song is the biggest reason for getting me deeply interested in this era.

The Archetypes: Brrrr!!! Now we are talking. I feel this album will have something for everyone. Catchy tunes, to alternative psychedelic tunes, to electro-pop songs. This song will give the album another dimension. It feels raw and honest. Love it.

I remember reading an article where Marina wished she was more popular. I guess keeping in line with that, she has attempted to make more commercially lucrative songs. But what she has managed to do it leave her identity on them.

Plus, I am getting a little attracted to her as well.

:oops:

by **Vindrag** » Sat Jan 21, 2012 1:32 pm

Only a little bit? :wink:

She's sexy, cute and beautiful all at the same time. She seems intellectual and funny and what a voice!

I'm expecting a grand pop album! Which I think she can pull of with that voice of hers. Have you listened to Fear And Loathing skapunk? It will also be on the album. It's the strongest tracks so far in my opinion.

Cannot count The Archetypes since it's so short.

by **HBIC** » Sat Jan 21, 2012 1:33 pm

Damn I thought she would make The Archetypes a full song already, it's amazing!

by **Vindrag** » Sat Jan 21, 2012 1:45 pm

It is!!! I would love for it to continue for 2 more minutes, but I'm afraid it will be an intro only. Maybe for the better.

How did I miss that?

Its awesome! Has a slight iamamiwhoami feel to it. Her voice is great too! Loving this era so far.

In the videos of Family Jewels era, she was cute. But this era, she is really sexy! Yum.

Iamamiwhoami? Hmm.. can't hear that. I get a grand Ray Of Light feel from it.

Agree. But she still look like a weird little smurf to me! Sexy smurfette!

1st single announced tomorrow, diamonds. <3

by **urbanmusik** » Wed Feb 08, 2012 8:48 pm

Radioactive never happened then? Or is she just pulling a Ciara/J.LO/Keri and calling it a buzz/viral/promo single?

I can't wait to hear the new single though, it's about time!

by **HBIC** » Wed Feb 08, 2012 8:49 pm

Excited!! Omg does this mean Radioactive is not going to be on the album?
