If you've been reading this blog, then you know I am a Marina and the Diamonds fan. With that said I had to post part 6 of her album Electra Heart, "Power and Control". Marina has a great understanding of human behavior and I love the way she uses it in her lyrics. She showcases this in this song once again.
I know I posted some videos of Marina and the Diamonds yesterday but I just HAD to post this acoustic version of "Lies." It is just beautiful, sad and honest. I'm totally loving it!
Marina and the Diamonds is one of the artists that I really like. She is able to pull of a pop song all the while poking fun at our popular culture obsessed society. I love that she is visually very put together. People often assume that eclectic artists are all over the place, however Marina dispels this notion. She is able to deliver a look that is sometimes 50's glamour infused with grunge and other times 80's breakfast club infused with 2010 hooker lol. It is truly amazing. You will always notice elements of previous decades in her work.
I thought I would also post another video off of her upcoming album "Electra Heart." This one is called "Radioactive" and it is more along the lines of electro/dance. Take a listen!
