"Buy The Stars" is totally unnecessary. And I don't like "Sex Yeah" that much either.

IMO the regular record could have included "Radioactive" and "Lonely Hearts Club" which would have been totally fine by me. :D

News for U.S. release, according to Marina herself

My American Jewels...!!!

I cannot believe this time is nearly upon us. Don't wanna cause PANIC in the streets or anything but... you know my second album ‘Electra Heart’ is going to be released in the sweet US of A on July 10th, right? OMG, you didn't know???? Well, lemme tell you my sweet lil key lime pies, you can now pre-order it on my jazzy 'webstore' / (soon to be called 'Electra Mart') and ...immediately stream the album: http://bit.ly/KUuA4O

Thanks for all the support in the making of it in the last few years. Your 50's & 60's American weird cuteness inspired so much of the imagery. I wrote almost all of it traveling across America; New York to North Dakota, Asbury Park to Chicago to Ocean drive, Santa Monica. If you wanna adopt me for the next year as your honorary fake American, I''m easy to find... Lurking around your passport control.. You know...

53 UK chart - though. It's now 6 weeks after release.
Her physical sales are better and she has two versions that get combined, remember.

She also did I Am Not A Robot with a guy called Pontus (I think he has some sort of disease, that's the point of the whole show.. or something) - they did a very beautiful duet.

I consider Robot a hit here in Sweden, everyone seems to know it and sing along. The show aired on friday, but I could not check iTunes until now, so the songs/albums must've peaked higher during the weekend.

Swedish iTunes

Robot #55, Primadonna #65
Family Jewels #29, Electra #73

My "Electra Heart" deluxe arrived today!!!! :D :D Listening to "Sex Yeah" for the very-first time!


P.S.: Just checked the "exclusive bonus video"... it redirects to "Lies (Acoustic Version)" on Youtube! Such a troll! :lol:

Don't think I've posted in here, but I absolutely love this album. Definitely one of the best pop releases of 2011, I can easily play it without skipping.

On the US Edition, she's removed "Living Dead" & added a new song "How To Be a Heartbreaker" :o

I love the fact we'll get a new song, but to omit Living Dead is a crime! :o

Radioactive is also included in the standard edition before Fear And Loathing.

Living Dead is one of the weaker tracks! The 4 bonus songs are stronger than Valley of the Dolls and Hypocrates too!

Looking forward to hearing another new song! I don't understand why she couldn't just whack it on rather than omitting 'Living Dead' but it's not like it's a massive loss, it's one of the weaker tracks on the album.

I can't comprehend why 'Lonely Hearts Club' is only a bonus track, I can't stop listening to it at the moment - the breakdown is sublime - and I think it'd be a fantastic single choice.

Yeah it's also one of my favorites, I thought it would eventually end up as a single.
