Aquiel ‘Aqi’ DracoThanks to @satsuma’s #SundayNightAlbum I do now know about Marina who I had not known anything about until a few Sundays ago.
For @loewe’s #MusicWomenWednesday here she is:
Marina ~ Bubblegum Bitch

Neil HopkinsOh sing, sing, sing
For the dying of the day
Sing for the flames that will rip through here
And the smoke that will carry us away
Yeah sing for the damage we've done
And the worse things that we'll do
Open your mouth up and sing for me now
And I will sing for you
knirirrBobby Hutcherson’s “San Francisco”:

The two-chord grooves remind me of tunes I play in a local band. Nice electric bass tone as well.
Bobby Hutcherson - "Goin´ Down South" (1971)
From LP "San Francisco" (Blue Note Records - 1971).
Oh, I get it. She is a best selling artist.
I’m almost feeling like the bubblegum pop sound is hiding those lyrics.
I was looking on last.fm if I could see what I listened to in 2012, alas it only goes back to 2016 with the report. It probably was like She Wants Revenge, VNV Nation, Mesh, VAST.
But I found some old playlists on there. That made me happy.
I have the lyrics on Spotify.
That’s quite serious stuff. In this next one ‚Living Dead‘ too.
I’m just totally floored that I absolutely never heard her. Maybe she wasn’t as big in America. I probably didn’t listen to too much radio at that time either.
@satsuma
I‘m trying to remember what I was into in 2012… well apparently not her.
It’s nice… bubblepop.
Oh, I’m getting the lyrics.
Her voice is nice, I really like it when she goes more deep and grittier.
Yeah, I guess nothing much has changed since 2012…
Still the same topics of needing to fake it to belong in some form or other.
*shrugz* me either.
I do like her deeper voice tones on the Homewrecker track
You shared something about Tumblr heyday. That came after MySpace 😅 and now she’s big again on TikTok
