this song makes me so emotional. I don't think my friends or family understand just how much of a life saver Marina is. She has made me feel so strong and powerful, even through the darkest times of my life. Diamonds are such intelligent people, too. I'm proud to be one. Thank you Marina.
Ashley Prentis I totally agree with your sentiments except for the fans being very intelligent. Most of the fans I've met have been arrogant and *think* they're smart, when they're really not any smarter than the average person. There's some sort of musical snobbery that seems to be super prevalent in MatD's fans and I can't figure out why. Liking a certain artist doesn't make someone into something else. Fans from singers who are her contemporaries (like Florence + the Machine or Lana del Rey) don't seem nearly as conceited, although there are some. I usually see this attitude with really avant garde artists like Björk or Kate Bush. They make Marina look like pure top 40 stuff, though, because of how "out there" their music can be.
Are you kidding....Lana del rey fans are usually Marina fans too...I have no idea what you're talking about. If anyone here is being conceited...it's uh...well...it's you...funny how that worked. I love diamonds. At least the one's I follow on tumblr are sweethearts. The music snobbery and hating pop thing died. Life is too short to pretend you don't love top 40 music. I mean come on.
"When the time comes along and the lights run out / I know a light will burn on when they blow me out" -- that just blows me away every single time. I could genuinely talk for hours on end about how much of a perfect song this is as a wrap-up for the Electra Heart narrative, but instead of being annoying, I'll just say that I got 'burn on' with two diamonds beside it tattooed on my hand in honor of this.
She's a great performer and I would love to see her live, it's too bad that all her London events keep selling out. I like the way that she actually connects with her lyrics, you can clearly see here that they actually mean something to her. It's very rare these days to find artists who can actually write and sing from the heart.
@IAmPlaysWithSquirrel I guess that's the intention right now - I think it's out in Spring 2012 so see what ends up on the album. Fear & Loathing and Radioactive have had videos released but Starring Role has just been put up as a demo so far.

Ashley Prentis 100% agree
I think I see s faint tear on her cheek... :/ this song was emotional for her at the time i bet
the high note had me sHOOK
To anyone reading.. you have found this beautiful artist out of the thousands of other music on the radio today, well done
i think i already knew that......i think everyone knew that 😊
❤️
And I am SO LUCKY
Forever grateful for that
I'm so glad she came into my life
This is still one of her prettiest looks. I hope she wears dresses like this again
Agree. Marina is just angelic here.
I don't think she would. That one in the video is Electra, not Marina, that is her essence, her soul, her feelings, her poor broken heart 💔
This song could've been great for pretty little liars
Omg she did for L+F!!
Electra is gone
It's been six years but I keep coming back to this performance.
Maxianaconda forevermore 💔
It’s gonna turn 10 this year-
I love this
12 years❤
the person who disliked this still lives in fear and loathing
"Not everyone is out to screw you over" you have no idea how this single line made me rethink my life decisions..
Same
I miss her platinum hair so much!
+May♥ wig***
+Andy “Angie” Aitch This is her hair in this video, she bleached it like this and it broke so then she started wearing wigs.
+A hint of lemon “A hint of lemon” it's her real hair with extensions here and after it broke off she started wearing the wig
I refuse to believe she's a real person. She's too good to have been brought up on this earth.
Honestly, I love her so much it's painful lmao.
Me too
She's not perfect. There's no such thing as perfect. But if there was such a thing, she would be THE definition of perfect.
i think about this A LOT
samE
I got major flashbacks when I saw your profile pic
Alexa Jimenez SAMEEEE
I wrote that a year ago and its still true
"I don't wanna live in fear and loathing"
"I don't either"
Same

ikr

Sherlocksashadowhunter 🌝
Make some videos merna
Delicious Kawaiigami

This one gives me euphoria and a shattered heart at the same time it's just incredible in every sense
This is MARINA in a nutshell
Marina made me cry.
Probs her best song still.
Now I really want to see her live
SHE IS ANGELIC LIVE
this still gives me goosebumps, im shooketh, shes god
Consider yourself lucky that Marina actually visits your country.
Sincerely,
An Australian Diamond
3 years later she still hasn't come
ziggylavigne It's our fault, really. Not enough diamonds = no show.
Im an Indonesian Diamond
Let's just hope that she visits our countries when she releases her next album.
A Spanish Diamond
2020 and nothing
a mexican diamond
I love her af i can't
She's a star who fell from the bright midnight sky to enchant us humans with her beautiful voice❤

is this god?
yes
If not even better.
Baptiste B probably
No
It’s THE godkiller
It's diamonds
So much emotion behind her voice, it's making me emotional
She sounds almost the exact same as the studio version her voice is truly great and she is rlly talented
she’s so ethereal i love her so much
Legend for uploading this... This song was the highlight of the night.
She's breathtaking
I’m crying I love this performance so much🥺
One of the best songs that I know. She is such a flawless singer!
She's a powerful singer, strong voice. Most importantly are the meaningful and heartfelt lyrics.
What's with guys at her concert shouting the lyrics before the song??
beautiful pain...
Sounds exactly like the song
she looks so amazing 😍
I don't know why this song doesn't quite feel like not wanting to live in fear and loathing, it feels more like not wanting to live at all.
She seems to carry a heavy load at such a young age, you can see the pain in her eyes.
I think she's trying to get out of a really dark place in this song and trying to manifest it in the lyrics
Idk why I can't stop watching this.
This is so beautiful 😭😭
Omg her look. I melt down from 1:33 to 1:43 those 10 sec were just beautiful.
She sounds PERFECT!!!!! AND LOOKS PERFECT!!
the drumming is a amazing as well, so nice to this this again I recommend the songs and any videos of Marina's and she's amazing
she is pure perfection. talented. beautiful. everything. she's simply amazing.
Omfg 2:07 to 2:30. The emotion.
One of my favorite songs on Electra Heart 🖤
3:26 enjoy ⚡
She just drips talent
her hair looks great like that!
I hope she has another album/tour! Shes amazing
MARINA TE AMO
She's soooo pretty!
love Marina & the Diamonds from the Philippines
Marina never fails at singing :) She is always perfect and brilliant
GARRGH when is the world going to recognise how talented she is?!
She's a great performer and I would love to see her live, it's too bad that all her London events keep selling out. I like the way that she actually connects with her lyrics, you can clearly see here that they actually mean something to her. It's very rare these days to find artists who can actually write and sing from the heart.
So much emotion in her eyes, she seems far too young to carry such a heavy load.
AHHHH!!! OMG
She is just perfection.
She is amazing!
does anyone else black out at 3:30?
this whole song has me blacking out
This song means a lot to me
Why can't I stop replaying this? Oh yeah, because this is beautiful.
Absolutely mesmerizing

She as beautiful as Elizabeth Taylor was in her prime and Cathrine Zeta-Jones as well. Vocals are awesome . . . so talented!
"Got diff'rent people inside my head, I wonder which one that they like best." ❤
@IAmPlaysWithSquirrel I guess that's the intention right now - I think it's out in Spring 2012 so see what ends up on the album. Fear & Loathing and Radioactive have had videos released but Starring Role has just been put up as a demo so far.
God, she is Beautiful! Like a Greek Goddess! Fine! And she can sing too!
Marina is so wonderful, love this girl. Good quality video considering it's not HD, thanks for posting!
