I absolutely ADORE the symbolism, from the butterflywings, the characters that look like they’re supposed to be in k-12, and them going to her grave and burying her, everyone knows she’s changing. At first they mourned her and then they helped her and watched her transform into a beautiful butterfly/fairy. Absolutely gorgeous.
Also, if you look deeper into her character design, when the fairy has green hair, green can often represent new beginnings and such (I'm unsure if the green hair is permanent or not.) The color on her skin, pink, often reminds people of their childhoods or nostalgia. Edit: Reworded better

It’s so fun to have seen Melanie over the years. I discovered her through dollhouse in 7th grade when i was 13. Now I’m 21 in my 3rd year of university. To have seen her grow is an honor.
Can't believe the TRILOGY Tour is now officially over! Thank you for being the highlight of my year, it was a once in a lifetime concert experience 🧚🏼♀️💗✨️
This is an ARTIST. I love how Meanie isn’t afraid to try new things and express her weird and wonderful brain. I am in constant awe of her creativity. A true artist
The excitement I hold for this. This women raised me, she got me through a really shitty childhood and now I’m almost 18. Words cannot describe how much I love her and her art more than anything :’) I love you Mel
I'm about to turn 17 and I remember listening to her in elementary school. I wonder if she knows how many people her music and just overall person raised
I literally grew up with this woman, i found cry baby when i was 10, and i definetly relate to it completely with my shtty childhood, disfuntional family, bullying and more. I heard K-12 when i was 14, and it helped me through high school drama and now i'm getting portals at almost 18, where i'm getting into a totally different and unkown period of my life, after depression. Give me a bigger conection to an artist.
2:25 this part is so catchy, I never thought I'd be so obsessed with Mels growls, drawing influences from so many different genres and creating something truly original. She truly evolved but still kept her style
I love when we see artists become new versions of themselves, especially if their old self is what they're iconically known for. It's the change and growth that's so special, you can tell Mel is at a better place with herself and they're exactly where they need to be. Sometimes we have to lay to rest the person we once were to become something entirely different and new. Even if we love our old self and many people did as well, it can weight us down, be suffocating, and make us feel trapped like we have to mirror to that image forever. I love this new direction and am so excited for Portals and what's to come!!
Omg this is literally everything! The music, the vocals, the dancing, the costumes just EVERYTHING! I get that people don’t like this new era because it’s different from what we had but they aren’t even giving it a chance. This is literally art!
I don't see what all the fuss has been about. It's still the same Melanie but just evolved. Anyone who watched K-12 would have realized when she introduced Lilith that things were going to go in this sort of direction.
@@ummmbye1228 100% ! The animal masks for example. I don't think Melanie will ever drop the "Alice in Wonderland" vibes. She's just putting a more spiritual/folklore twist on it now.
It's an honor to have seen Crybaby grow! I've been with you since I was 8, today I'm 13, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to have seen Crybaby grow and die, the development of this story goes much further. I love you so much Mel!!!! Now seeing Crybaby's new reincarnation is a unique thing!!

Really love the fact that she's not scared to explore other aesthetic and type of music. Growing up with Melanie and her art is such a great flex. ✿。•̀✧*☆◕
@@zestiestdragom yeah but the rebirth type thing is new. You tellin me this ain’t at all different from crybaby or k12? Bffr yes it’s out there and Melanie has always been out there but this is different.
If you pay attention @4:16 you’ll notice she’s put 9 swords in crybaby. This could be seen as a reference to the 9 of swords tarot card which represents fear, anxiety, and things that keep you up at night. 9 of swords reversed represents overcoming darkness and once again seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I love it when artists incorporate hidden Easter eggs in their music videos. Good album all together.
Or it could be the 8 swords which represents victim mentality, holding yourself back, negative self-talk, trapped, overthinking, imprisonment, loss of power, or a perspective shift.
did anyone notice the fact that she is dancing inside of her own skeleton? I think that was a great detail in this because in void she escapes from the inside of her body I think
4:28 This scene is just amazing. When she breaks free, I actually felt her relief. And her wings look so ethereally breathtaking, so beautiful 💛 her facial expression is spot on even with the suit/custome on.
its so symbolic i love it, ever since she's been taking better care of herself, she's been so spiritual and she knows her value. I love them sm for that. Mel will always be in my heart ♡♡
How u do that? This is territory that's supposed to be hard to understand. I like the vibes tho, I wouldn't be surprised if u were close to the awnser youve been looking for, but you may be lost too.
grew up with “crybaby”, moved on to “k-12” when i was in my preteens and now “portals” through my teens. this is so beautiful and i honestly love melanie with my whole heart.💗
The metaphor of death being the moment the chord connecting Melanie’s dead body with Melanie’s alive soul breaks and being also the metaphor of birth at the same time is too good. It keeps me up at night

There’s so many beautiful spiritual meanings behind this. Melanie’s body with 10 swords representing the tarot card. Her being a butterfly to represent transformation etc she’s truly a beautiful artist 🤍

My fave parts: 0:03 - death is life is death 1:21 - 2:03 - feels like i am ascending! 2:10 SHE'S BACK Y'ALL YASS 2:24 -the whisper🤪 2:41 her voice while saying death 4:02 mel back up-😨 4:21 MY FAVEEEEEEEEE 4:33 BREAK FREE MEL 4:51 she's back 👀
Today, I want to talk to you about the gospel of salvation according to Romans 6. The concept of sin is central to this discussion. Sin is the act of disobeying God's commands, and it has serious consequences. The Bible teaches that the penalty for sin is death, both physical and spiritual (Romans 6:23). But there is good news. Through Jesus Christ, we have a way to be saved from our sins and have eternal life. Romans 6:23 goes on to say, "but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." This means that salvation is a free gift from God that we receive through faith in Jesus Christ. So, how do we receive this gift of salvation? Romans 10:9 says, "That if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." This means that we need to confess our belief in Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross for our sins. By doing so, we are acknowledging that we are sinners in need of a savior, and that Jesus is the only way to be saved. The significance of Jesus' sacrifice cannot be overstated. He died on the cross as a perfect sacrifice for our sins, taking the punishment we deserve so that we can be forgiven and reconciled to God. Through His resurrection, Jesus conquered sin and death, and offers us the gift of eternal life. It is essential to understand that accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior is not merely a one-time decision, but a lifelong commitment. As we grow in our faith, we become more like Jesus, and our desire to follow His teachings increases. We are called to live a life of holiness and obedience to God's commands, not to earn our salvation, but as a reflection of our gratitude for what He has done for us. I invite you to consider these teachings and make an informed decision about your faith. If you have not yet accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, I encourage you to do so today. Know that you are loved by God, and that He desires a personal relationship with you. May you experience the peace and joy that comes from knowing Him.
THIS WAS INSANE! Like where to start? The visual effects, the quality and the colors! Tbh I didn't expect the clip to be that good it really blew up my expectations, i can see now why she did spend 3 years to make this album. Its a true work of art and the new aesthetic is so unbelievably amazing! As we said before, Mel NEVER disappoints. Can't wait to see the full movie! That will be my new flex and i'm sure of it.
Growing up with Melanie is a huge flex. This is an ARTIST. I love how Melanie isn’t afraid to try new things and express her weird and wonderful brain. I am in constant awe of her creativity. A true artist.
@@ex7229 exactly. if YOU were older you’d understand this . too bad you don’t. This is a unique experience to people who grasp it and she’s just expressing it through her music and visuals
I'm sorry, but I absolutely love her mind because the way she evokes the imagery of tarot cards at 4:17 is perfection. With the 9 of swords card representing Crybaby (9 of swords being the card of pain, sorrow, crying) and by impaling the corpse with the swords the 10 of swords imagery is invoked (10 of swords is like "The worst is over") and shows that this new form is truly going to be nothing like what we've heard from her before and I simply cannot wait. Edit: Holly hell thanks for the likes and comments 😂❤
seeing her old character design leaving the community really made me sad and probably made all of you feel the same but she’s exploring a new era of herself and we should support it all step by step ❤
This! I´m so sad when I first saw crybaby dead on the ground. But as she said " My body has died, but I'm still alive" so she isn´t dead, but her crybaby era is. But still, I´m hyped for her new era and will always love her music. (And still be hearing the old songs, I could never forget about them all)

I love that they're going from babycore to fairy goth, I love the idea that they might explore a ton of really distinct aesthetics and switch their whole vibe every time they leave and come back. I love how it frees her from a single aesthetic box but is also so clearly authentic to her overall vibe so you still see what you loved about the last style in this style. Like it's a totally different genre but it's still surreal and a little creepy in a childhood nostalgia sort of way and it's still pastel and it's still femme. And I love that about her. Can't wait to see what she comes up with next.
My idea is she gains more humanity and becomes more in tune with herself as a soul every next life she moves onto, but the trade off is she begins to appear less and less human each time

I love this creature Melanie has become. It's a little visually awkward, just uncanny valley, but once you get used to it, you realize how truly beautiful this new form is
Plus, uncanny valley isn't always bad. It can also be for storytelling. Remember guys, this is the first song. Maybe the literal four eyes will be important later, but you don't know!!
@@michael-mn7ok Crybaby was a tired gimmick tbh. ( If it's cringey when you're 30 it's a gimmick. ) Aside from the controversy of her over-borrowing from Bjork's images for promotion of the album, which was just a bit over-stepping on the lines of inspiration . . . This is a little too electronic for me but the arrangement is nice. I can respect it.
I'm so proud of her evolution , the fact that she is being herself and she doesn't care if someone don't really like it , being herself and doing what she likes , this mv makes me wanna cry 😭😭😭 IT IS TOO PERFECT FOR ME 😭

this is the first song Melanie's released since the passing of my mother, and honestly I can say that Melanie always has a song for every situation in life. To think that my mom watched k-12 with me and although she's not here to watch this with me, I really see her in crybaby's new character. It's honestly really healing, and the pagan imagery and lyrics are really cool since her whole life was focused around witchcraft and our family HAS been noticing her presence. This song hits way harder than ANYTHING else you could've possibly released at this time, and I want to thank you for the beautiful message. Yes, we all die, but there's also a beauty and freedom in death. The situation may be sad, but the soul is finally at peace. Melanie if you're reading this, I first discovered you when Crybaby was released (5th grade) and you got me through horrible bullying and helped me to learn to love my body and gapped teeth. Thank you for always being there as an artist. I can't wait to see you grow as a person from here on out. And don't listen to the fans who constantly beg for certain songs.. this is your art, and I want to see you produce what YOU'RE comfortable with releasing
Pls ignore the absolute horrific first comment this person above me made. Absolutely disrespectful. I immediately reported. On another note, i can't imagine how you're feeling rn. My grandpa has also passed away recently. But my mom.. woah that'd be on another level. She also watched K-12 with me in the cinema. We're really close, like said, i can't imagine what it's like losing that person. Sending love and light your way, you know she's still with your family, just on another line of existence🌟
@@fae1984 i really appreciate this, also thankfully the comment's been deleted/taken down before i could read it. and yeah it's been pretty hard, and it's been the toughest challenge I've ever had to face, especially the fact that I'm still 17. but I've found ways to cope, and I can already tell this song's gonna be really helpful too thank you so much for the genuine concern, i actually wasn't expecting people to reply to my original comment

Imagine how bland this all would be if we didn't have artists like Melanie who aren't afraid to build a world and create amazing music for us to enjoy. It's been an honor to be able to say I've been on every journey she's wanted to take us on. ❤
Im confused. Is this crybaby spirit? Why did it stand over her with the swords? Im also wondering if shes wearing a s full costume for the next eras? Like surely shes gonna show her face again? 😭
@@grunkling You guys are so obsessed and aggressive about the sentence “how long have you been a melanie fan?”💀.. like wtf just shut up and enjoy the music tbh if melanie saw you she’s absolutely gonna stop posting anything sooo just shut up and be respectful lmao
@@Mo.xir7 BAHAHAHAHAH you're goofy. I'm just saying it because the person said they didn't understand this whole new era thing so I was asking a question so I could then when replied to, explain it. I'm just being a good person imo 💀💀
I love how this is meaningful on multiple levels. Melanie singing about being "back from the dead" is also about her career : 3 years is enough for the industry to consider you "dead" but yet she is back proving her detractors (also those who claimed k12 was a flop) she is still here, more alive than ever, crazier, funnier than ever. She truly never disappoints 🌸
Crybabys last words[time and lyrics] "PLEASE DONT EVER WORRY" "I KNOW ITS MORBID" "BUT WE ALL DIE ONE DAY" And the time is 4:31 - 4:38 Its literally gonna be my last words bro😭😭
Litterally gave me the chills. I've been a Melanie fan since the beginning and seeing her say goodbye to the crybaby era is bitter sweet but I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this new version of Mel, shes growing spiritually and mentally, and maturing even more than before. This new style is coming to the surface with a new and improved Mel and its beautiful to watch.
It’s so sad seeing people dislike her new form like not everything is for ur enjoyment she’s obviously growing as a person and she can’t stay the same forever

Omg I can't believe we actually got to see Crybaby's human form one last time! It's hard to let her go as we used her to cope for so many years, but she's one of us; and we always support when someone in our community finds themselves. I can see her breaking free of her old form or her old body where all the terrible things happened in Crybaby and K-12 (And After School) and leaving those memories behind as she escapes into her true form. I think every time Crybaby has died in the past, she's gotten rebirthed in the same body; but this is different. For one reason or another, she has finally been set free. (Probably has something to do with the end of K-12 and Lillith.) I'm super hyped to see the rest of PORTALS and where this journey takes Crybaby.
I’m really hoping that we will see how crybaby died or if she was killed. I’m hoping they connect it. I have a feeling since she has two sets of eyes that is connected to her other albums.
Her pronunciation of words is so satisfying to listen to. Her music makes me feel like the biggest language, lyric geek lol she's so particular with everything she does!
@@Illogical_Tales idk but i also like the pronunciation of her words like if you say it it sounds weird but if she sings it its kinda like a longer version of a word and better sung
art isn't supposed to look nice, it's supposed to make you feel something... this is ART!!! ayooo this is not backhanded compliment. As an artist and a character designer, this is art to me. This kind of music is what I want to see in the mainstream ...the overall concept, the character and costume design, the music, the cinematography and coloring really captured the mood I expected. Her creativity is overflowing!!
It looks scary and different… its not supposed to be happy… I definitely feel like they could animate and make a series of the darkness of this new character. It’s not bubbly and cutesy Anymore. Some of the album songs are actually quite rocky and they fit the scary looking creature she portrays… she’s definitely growing as an artist. To me she’s there, and while for now she may not appeal to everyone just yet, I feel like she gets closer to it each time..:
As a tarot card person I noticed there was a scene (4:15) similar to a card "nine of swords" which represents "being plagued by fear, guilt, doubt, and worries that are to a large extent, unfounded." To me that fits perfectly to the theme and the awakening from death as a new being. It sounds like it was added there on purpose but you'll never be sure unless Melanie says it their self.
I think its the ten of swords, cuz there is the sunrise behind, like in that card, and ten of swords is like "the end", the deepest point before getting up, i think it fits well too :) In the video there are only nine swords but maybe the heel represents the 10th hahaha
Omg i'm really loving this new era, the aesthetic, the art, melanie has grow so much in this last years and this is totally fantastic, and the fact that she don't have any fear to show this new design for us is totally incredible!! Loving everything from this album 💕💖
I've honestly just discovered Melanie, she's incredible. Her music, visuals, theme, concept... it's on its own planet.... literally. She's made a new fan.
when you find time, go throughout all of the crybaby songs, watch the k-12 film, and then listen to this album. it will start to make sense since the portals album is like crybaby’s second life
Im not sad regarding cry baby's death, she went through many things and finally she's got a rest, definitely I'll miss cry baby, she was a friend, a confident in her whole story for many of us, but remember, she is not actually "dead" she is just in a new form, she is back from the death and came to heal our hearts!
i really love how at 4:36 the new form of crybaby is detaching themselves from the old/dead crybaby. like the fairy version flys up so fast and is embracing the freedom from her past self. it's so symbolic and really shows how mel has grown not only as an artist, but as a human as well 🧚🏼♀️🌙💞
Growing up with Melanie is such a beautiful thing. I first started listening to her album in my transition middle school, then K-12 beginning high school. Now as a Senior about to graduate, this song feels symbolic of all the change that’s happened in what feels like a pivotal time in my life. Thank you Melanie, you are a true artist and we love you. ❤️💕
I was 14-15 when I first started listening Melanie, I saw her toxic cover on voice thinking she was so pretty and how lovely she sings and started hearing all her songs. I’m 22 now and I’m so proud to be here for this new adventure 💖✨
Same, but I'm 19, and I love how in this video she gets reincarnated as a faery tendril thing honestly I love it, and how the back up dancers are dressed!
I adore this new era, the visuals, EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS I LOVE. Mel is so creative and that’s what I love about her. She’s absolutely a beautiful artist and there is so many meanings behind this.🤍 I Love this.
❤️YOU DO NOT HAVE TO FEAR DEATH IF YOU BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST, AND TRUST IN HIM WITH ALL YOUR HEART, BECAUSE HE ATONED FOR YOU FOR ALL YOUR INSULTS, THAT YOU WOULD OBTAIN PEACE WITH ALMIGHTY GOD, AND GO TO HEAVEN BY HIS GRACE!
Yes as a phoenix she rises from the ashes of the chains of the industry, self made independent artists are rising and the artistic expression of this is at its height. Keep the fire Melanie don't let the haters take it away. We've missed you.

Seeing "RIP Crybaby" after being a huge fan of the original album and being there for k-12 (which was so amazing too) was such a whiplash. I can't right now, but I'm so looking forward to listening to the album in full
i dont know why, but this is the type of music that oddly makes me emotional. her journey of her exploring who she is and maturing to see that she didnt like the old her, and her ability to express that through music and art is just so beautiful to me. the more i listen to this the more i cry because melanie is one of those artists who will never be replicated.
Hey lyrics on this album are especially beautiful and touching, this song is probably my favorite, the beginning and crybabies final words always make me cry lol
I love how her music is like a story! In the Crybaby album, a baby girl was born and named Crybaby and those song are about her home life and how she was when she was young. Next, in the K-12 album, Crybaby grows older and then goes through school, from kindergarten to 12th. Finally, in Portals, Crybaby's life has passed on and she's now a Nymph, her soul becoming another life. Melanie's music is absolutely incredible, and has deep meanings. She is most definitely my favorite artist!
I'm so happy Melanie is not afraid to express herself in so many different ways. this song is so amazing! i love how she can just make masterpieces. its such a flex to grow up with her music. she has such deep meaning in her songs and this one it just amazing. i love her so much and I can't wait for her to come out with the whole album. first the crybaby album, dollhouse episodes, K-12, and after school. this is gonna be a perfect masterpiece and it always will be. Melanie i hope you know that we all love you and were so grateful that you keep releasing these beautiful pieces of art. this is a real ARTIST. an AMAZING one at that. Melanie we love you and everything you've ever done.
It’s nice but then again, such a simple lyrical passage made you feel like she’s a literal genius? People’s standards must be so low lol. She’s incredible and has amazing metaphors but that wasn’t genius 😂
the fact that she recreated herself when she was in her “cry baby” era makes me cry so hard, I’m so proud of her work, she’s growing constantly, exploring new ways to express herself, so so proud!❤️
I am in love with the “DEATH DEATH” in the background it’s so ragged and rough and it gives me chills. And the pre chorus too “I DONT WANNA BE CARRYING THE WEIGHT ON MY SHOULDERS” in love. In. Love.
Such an underrated artist, its amazing how much dedication and hard work she puts into her art and how passionate about it she is. I've wondered many times why she's never been nominated for a grammy, but then she's just too different and unique for such a mainstream award. Melanie, you're an incredible artist.
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:55-57
I've always loved how creative Melanie is, since I was young I started learning her songs word by word. I still know the words years later. She continues to come out with amazing music that's not only creative, but meaningful. Music is an art. Melanie has taken the art of music and made it into something more. Something so beautiful that some people don't understand it anymore. Crybaby never left. She reincarnated.
This was an ad on TH-cam and for the first time in a while i didn’t skip! Melanie will never fail to impress us and enchant us with her boundless creativity and angelic voice
I haven't skipped a single ad on this MV since the day it came out, I just watched two 3 min long ads without skipping. anything to support this legend
"DEATH" Death is life is death is life is death is life is They're carvin' my name in the grave again The flowers are fresh and their faces wet My body has died, but I'm still alive Look over your shoulder, I'm back from the dead Lightin' all your candles to draw me in Sayin' all the same things, I'm gone this time Your words mean nothin', so take 'em back And meet me here across the plane The other side, I'm not far When you aren't around, I sink into the ground I try to pretend I'm closer to you Never understand it You're always on my mind, I cannot help it I don't wanna be carryin' the weight on my shoulders Death has come to me, kissed me on the cheek, gave me closure Immortal by design I'll be meetin' you here every time Back from the dead, back from the dead I'm back from the dead, back from the dead I'm back from the dead, back from the dead I'm back from the dead, back from the dead I'm back from the dead (Death), back from the dead (Death) I'm back from the dead (Death), back from the dead (Death) I'm back from the dead (Death), back from the dead (Death) I'm back from the dead (Death), back from the (I'm back) (I'm back) (I'm back) (Death, death, death) (I'm back) (Death, death) (I'm back) They're sayin' my name in their prayers again I flicker the lights so they understand I won't say goodbye, I'm right by your side We're screamin' and pleadin', this separation ends Doin' all your witchcraft to pull me in Burnin' all your sage to connect our line I show my presence, you run away in fear of ghosts I try to talk, the barriers are too strong When you aren't around, I sink into the ground I try to pretend I'm closer to you Never understand it You're always on my mind, I cannot help it I don't wanna be carryin' the weight on my shoulders Death has come to me, kissed me on the cheek, gave me closure Immortal by design I'll be meetin' you here every time Back from the dead, back from the dead I'm back from the dead, back from the dead I'm back from the dead, back from the dead I'm back from the dead, back from the dead I'm back from the dead (Death), back from the dead (Death) I'm back from the dead (Death), back from the dead I'm back from the dead (Death), back from the dead (Death) I'm back from the dead (Death), back from the dead Please don't ever worry (Back from the dead, back from the dead) (I'm back from the dead, back from the dead) I know it's morbid (I'm back from the dead, back from the dead) But we all die one day (I'm back from the dead, back from the dead) I'm back from the dead, back from the dead I'm back from the dead, back from the dead I'm back from the dead, back from the dead I'm back from the dead, back from the (I'm back)
Lost my mom two years ago, and I cannot tell you how this song has helped start finally healing. Just hearing some of the lyrics hit hard but also makes me feel as if though i was supposed to hear this for a reason. I really appreciate Melanie and her musical, beautiful mind. "I don't wanna be carryin the weight on my shoulders. Death has come to me kissed me on the cheek gave me closure." These lyrics specifically reminded me of when I went into a very dark and self harming phase after losing my mom, but hearing "Immortal by design. I'll be meetin' you every time." I couldn't help but break down, because I know I'll see her again when it's my time. This is the first time music has truly touched my soul like this.
Thank you for sharing this with us. I'm sorry for your loss but I'm glad you can find some comfort in Melanie's music. She's honestly so creative and unique.
I absolute love the way she visualize her songs, every scene, outfits, backgrounds everything fit’s so perfectly and I’m beyond in love with the way her mind works, it’s hard to find an artist who can capture the theme and vibe of their music. I can’t wait to see what she has in store for us next 🪷✨🧚🏾♀️🍄‼️

i hate how people are saying they dont like the "new melanie". This has always been her. I've listened to her music since I ws in middle school and shes always been different from other artist. Thats what makes her so special to me; that she can be herself not afraid of the world judging her or giving into the worldly view on beauty standards and normality. Shes even expressed multiple times through her songs, for example "fire drill". She knows shes different but she embraces it. I strive to be like her.
The fact she took the time to re-do every thumnail saying “rip crybaby” means she really loves her fans and enjoys making music. Amazing job Melanie! I already listened to the full album! 🫶🏻🫶🏻
I’ve been a fan of Melanie since I was in second grade, listening to every cry baby song constantly as her being my role model. I’m a sophomore in high school and as much as it’s kinda sad, crying in the beginning of this song watching how much it’s changed, I’m so glad she is who she is because I couldn’t have been more proud of who she’s become. We love you Mel! 💗
The fact that I’ve been a crybaby / earthling since I was 12, Melanie has no idea how much her music means to me. When K-12 was released, I ugly cried because of the concept of the album & the messages behind each song and it helped me get through tough times by the time I started middle school. When Melanie posted the snippets of Portals on her Instagram, I was so happy because this album was 4 years worth waiting for. Melanie, thank you so much for saving my mental health with your music and I hope to meet you one day❤️
I remember my older sister walking into my room after school asking me if I wanted to have a dance party and her albums would always be playing while we listened and now I'm in middle school
for anyone saying they will miss the crybaby era just remember: it’s not gone, but rather it has evolved into a new form that is equally if not more creative for Melanie! you can always go back to listen and appreciate the previous albums, i know they hold a very special place in a lot of our hearts, but it’s not like they are being erased. so just try to enjoy the ride and vibe with the new aesthetic! and if you don’t find that it’s for you, it’s okay to move on and grow apart from it, just like it’s okay for Melanie to grow into new types and ways of making music 💘💐 very excited for portals and whatever comes next 🫶💜🌱💫
But like-how did she die? Heartbroken because her heart was carved out? When did she die? Where did she die? Does her death mean somebody killed her or she died from something else? Or is it a metaphor for rebirth and the death will be undisclosed
this video took me to another dimension ❤🔥and this song will be on repeat all weekend thank u
right !! the mv is a masterpiece 💝
Omg hi TH-cam
Hello TH-cam
oh hi there youtube
Bring back dislikes
I absolutely ADORE the symbolism, from the butterflywings, the characters that look like they’re supposed to be in k-12, and them going to her grave and burying her, everyone knows she’s changing. At first they mourned her and then they helped her and watched her transform into a beautiful butterfly/fairy. Absolutely gorgeous.
Also, if you look deeper into her character design, when the fairy has green hair, green can often represent new beginnings and such (I'm unsure if the green hair is permanent or not.) The color on her skin, pink, often reminds people of their childhoods or nostalgia.
Edit: Reworded better
It's like metamorphosis
It sounds like teamwork 😭😭❤️
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:55-57

It’s so fun to have seen Melanie over the years. I discovered her through dollhouse in 7th grade when i was 13. Now I’m 21 in my 3rd year of university. To have seen her grow is an honor.
I listened to Melanie when i was 10yrs old and now I'm almost 16
I watched her live on the voice. I cheered her on. I’m so proud of her.
Btch we twinning 😄
Literally me.
Seriously, it was a perfect description of my journey with Melanie
oh my god same as me , i found her when i was 13 too now we're 21 and still in love with her
Can't believe the TRILOGY Tour is now officially over! Thank you for being the highlight of my year, it was a once in a lifetime concert experience 🧚🏼♀️💗✨️

The excitement I hold for this. This women raised me, she got me through a really shitty childhood and now I’m almost 18. Words cannot describe how much I love her and her art more than anything :’)
I love you Mel
Melanie's music is transcendent, I been a fan for several years and get pissed when she takes an year or two between her projects. She's that good.
I'm about to turn 17 and I remember listening to her in elementary school. I wonder if she knows how many people her music and just overall person raised
I really hope you’re recovering from your childhood… ❤️

I literally grew up with this woman, i found cry baby when i was 10, and i definetly relate to it completely with my shtty childhood, disfuntional family, bullying and more. I heard K-12 when i was 14, and it helped me through high school drama and now i'm getting portals at almost 18, where i'm getting into a totally different and unkown period of my life, after depression. Give me a bigger conection to an artist.

@@Benson0987 yesss
Bro I lays thought they were only girls
I love when we see artists become new versions of themselves, especially if their old self is what they're iconically known for. It's the change and growth that's so special, you can tell Mel is at a better place with herself and they're exactly where they need to be. Sometimes we have to lay to rest the person we once were to become something entirely different and new. Even if we love our old self and many people did as well, it can weight us down, be suffocating, and make us feel trapped like we have to mirror to that image forever. I love this new direction and am so excited for Portals and what's to come!!
Omg this is literally everything! The music, the vocals, the dancing, the costumes just EVERYTHING! I get that people don’t like this new era because it’s different from what we had but they aren’t even giving it a chance. This is literally art!
It’s so Tim burton I love it literally sm
It's still melanie martinez. Strange and beautiful
I don't see what all the fuss has been about. It's still the same Melanie but just evolved. Anyone who watched K-12 would have realized when she introduced Lilith that things were going to go in this sort of direction.
It’s going to still have a hint of her old era in this but this is just a phase of hers that’s all
@@ummmbye1228 100% ! The animal masks for example. I don't think Melanie will ever drop the "Alice in Wonderland" vibes. She's just putting a more spiritual/folklore twist on it now.
It's an honor to have seen Crybaby grow! I've been with you since I was 8, today I'm 13, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to have seen Crybaby grow and die, the development of this story goes much further. I love you so much Mel!!!! Now seeing Crybaby's new reincarnation is a unique thing!!
I love this her!
We twinin😂🎉

Exactly, he looks so happy 😭💖
@@emmamichel2390 he?
If you pay attention @4:16 you’ll notice she’s put 9 swords in crybaby. This could be seen as a reference to the 9 of swords tarot card which represents fear, anxiety, and things that keep you up at night. 9 of swords reversed represents overcoming darkness and once again seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I love it when artists incorporate hidden Easter eggs in their music videos. Good album all together.
i think it also indicates the years of how long crybaby lasted
maybe
@@potraysheart It it
@@potraysheart It is
Or it could be the 8 swords which represents victim mentality, holding yourself back, negative self-talk, trapped, overthinking, imprisonment, loss of power, or a perspective shift.
This is iconic af. So proud to be part of history like this! RIP crybaby she will be missed.

@@marthadumptruck5102 true! she got what she always wanted: to escape k-12 and her bad family life
did anyone notice the fact that she is dancing inside of her own skeleton? I think that was a great detail in this because in void she escapes from the inside of her body I think
We were born to late to explore the world, too early to explore the universe but just in time to experience Melanie

The metaphor of death being the moment the chord connecting Melanie’s dead body with Melanie’s alive soul breaks and being also the metaphor of birth at the same time is too good. It keeps me up at night

Her dedication to her craft cannot remain unseen. The production on this music video alone is INSANE
Today, I want to talk to you about the gospel of salvation according to Romans 6. The concept of sin is central to this discussion. Sin is the act of disobeying God's commands, and it has serious consequences. The Bible teaches that the penalty for sin is death, both physical and spiritual (Romans 6:23).
But there is good news. Through Jesus Christ, we have a way to be saved from our sins and have eternal life. Romans 6:23 goes on to say, "but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." This means that salvation is a free gift from God that we receive through faith in Jesus Christ.
So, how do we receive this gift of salvation? Romans 10:9 says, "That if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." This means that we need to confess our belief in Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross for our sins. By doing so, we are acknowledging that we are sinners in need of a savior, and that Jesus is the only way to be saved.
The significance of Jesus' sacrifice cannot be overstated. He died on the cross as a perfect sacrifice for our sins, taking the punishment we deserve so that we can be forgiven and reconciled to God. Through His resurrection, Jesus conquered sin and death, and offers us the gift of eternal life.
It is essential to understand that accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior is not merely a one-time decision, but a lifelong commitment. As we grow in our faith, we become more like Jesus, and our desire to follow His teachings increases. We are called to live a life of holiness and obedience to God's commands, not to earn our salvation, but as a reflection of our gratitude for what He has done for us.
I invite you to consider these teachings and make an informed decision about your faith. If you have not yet accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, I encourage you to do so today. Know that you are loved by God, and that He desires a personal relationship with you. May you experience the peace and joy that comes from knowing Him.
THIS WAS INSANE! Like where to start? The visual effects, the quality and the colors! Tbh I didn't expect the clip to be that good it really blew up my expectations, i can see now why she did spend 3 years to make this album. Its a true work of art and the new aesthetic is so unbelievably amazing! As we said before, Mel NEVER disappoints. Can't wait to see the full movie! That will be my new flex and i'm sure of it.
I love everything about her new looks! TBH reminds me of cottagecore and surrealism together. Also, her newer music seems more spiritual.
Growing up with Melanie is a huge flex. This is an ARTIST. I love how Melanie isn’t afraid to try new things and express her weird and wonderful brain. I am in constant awe of her creativity. A true artist.

I'm sorry, but I absolutely love her mind because the way she evokes the imagery of tarot cards at 4:17 is perfection. With the 9 of swords card representing Crybaby (9 of swords being the card of pain, sorrow, crying) and by impaling the corpse with the swords the 10 of swords imagery is invoked (10 of swords is like "The worst is over") and shows that this new form is truly going to be nothing like what we've heard from her before and I simply cannot wait.

seeing her old character design leaving the community really made me sad and probably made all of you feel the same but she’s exploring a new era of herself and we should support it all step by step ❤
This! I´m so sad when I first saw crybaby dead on the ground. But as she said " My body has died, but I'm still alive" so she isn´t dead, but her crybaby era is. But still, I´m hyped for her new era and will always love her music. (And still be hearing the old songs, I could never forget about them all)
Yes, agreed
i felt like part of a new start
I Miss old Melanie with her black

I love that they're going from babycore to fairy goth, I love the idea that they might explore a ton of really distinct aesthetics and switch their whole vibe every time they leave and come back. I love how it frees her from a single aesthetic box but is also so clearly authentic to her overall vibe so you still see what you loved about the last style in this style. Like it's a totally different genre but it's still surreal and a little creepy in a childhood nostalgia sort of way and it's still pastel and it's still femme. And I love that about her. Can't wait to see what she comes up with next.
My idea is she gains more humanity and becomes more in tune with herself as a soul every next life she moves onto, but the trade off is she begins to appear less and less human each time

Frrr it’s really inspiring
Believe it or not helped me grow alot
this is the first song Melanie's released since the passing of my mother, and honestly I can say that Melanie always has a song for every situation in life. To think that my mom watched k-12 with me and although she's not here to watch this with me, I really see her in crybaby's new character. It's honestly really healing, and the pagan imagery and lyrics are really cool since her whole life was focused around witchcraft and our family HAS been noticing her presence. This song hits way harder than ANYTHING else you could've possibly released at this time, and I want to thank you for the beautiful message. Yes, we all die, but there's also a beauty and freedom in death. The situation may be sad, but the soul is finally at peace.
Melanie if you're reading this, I first discovered you when Crybaby was released (5th grade) and you got me through horrible bullying and helped me to learn to love my body and gapped teeth. Thank you for always being there as an artist. I can't wait to see you grow as a person from here on out. And don't listen to the fans who constantly beg for certain songs.. this is your art, and I want to see you produce what YOU'RE comfortable with releasing
I'm glad that your mom didn't have to suffer listening to this hot queefy bloody shart you call a song :)
Wow
Pls ignore the absolute horrific first comment this person above me made. Absolutely disrespectful. I immediately reported.
On another note, i can't imagine how you're feeling rn. My grandpa has also passed away recently. But my mom.. woah that'd be on another level. She also watched K-12 with me in the cinema. We're really close, like said, i can't imagine what it's like losing that person. Sending love and light your way, you know she's still with your family, just on another line of existence🌟

I love how this is meaningful on multiple levels. Melanie singing about being "back from the dead" is also about her career : 3 years is enough for the industry to consider you "dead" but yet she is back proving her detractors (also those who claimed k12 was a flop) she is still here, more alive than ever, crazier, funnier than ever. She truly never disappoints 🌸
Also like how theirs a line that says she's immortal which I imagine implies she's never going anywhere. I love Melanie so much ❤️

Litterally gave me the chills. I've been a Melanie fan since the beginning and seeing her say goodbye to the crybaby era is bitter sweet but I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this new version of Mel, shes growing spiritually and mentally, and maturing even more than before. This new style is coming to the surface with a new and improved Mel and its beautiful to watch.

Omg I can't believe we actually got to see Crybaby's human form one last time! It's hard to let her go as we used her to cope for so many years, but she's one of us; and we always support when someone in our community finds themselves.
I can see her breaking free of her old form or her old body where all the terrible things happened in Crybaby and K-12 (And After School) and leaving those memories behind as she escapes into her true form. I think every time Crybaby has died in the past, she's gotten rebirthed in the same body; but this is different. For one reason or another, she has finally been set free. (Probably has something to do with the end of K-12 and Lillith.)
I'm super hyped to see the rest of PORTALS and where this journey takes Crybaby.
I’m really hoping that we will see how crybaby died or if she was killed. I’m hoping they connect it. I have a feeling since she has two sets of eyes that is connected to her other albums.

As an artist and a character designer, this is art to me. This kind of music is what I want to see in the mainstream ...the overall concept, the character and costume design, the music, the cinematography and coloring really captured the mood I expected. Her creativity is overflowing!!
I agree!
this is so backhanded HELPP 😭
But this looks nice to me, ur opinion is wrong 😅
Bro wth are you talking about 😂 this looks beyond beautiful and ethereal
It looks scary and different… its not supposed to be happy… I definitely feel like they could animate and make a series of the darkness of this new character. It’s not bubbly and cutesy Anymore. Some of the album songs are actually quite rocky and they fit the scary looking creature she portrays… she’s definitely growing as an artist. To me she’s there, and while for now she may not appeal to everyone just yet, I feel like she gets closer to it each time..:
As a tarot card person I noticed there was a scene (4:15) similar to a card "nine of swords" which represents "being plagued by fear, guilt, doubt, and worries that are to a large extent, unfounded."
To me that fits perfectly to the theme and the awakening from death as a new being.
It sounds like it was added there on purpose but you'll never be sure unless Melanie says it their self.
I think its the ten of swords, cuz there is the sunrise behind, like in that card, and ten of swords is like "the end", the deepest point before getting up, i think it fits well too :)
In the video there are only nine swords but maybe the heel represents the 10th hahaha
@@danielsolorzano4996 yea clearly the t’en of sword from the position
I think its the 10 of swords, but I noticed that too
Personaly, i think its 10 of swords because of the meaning about starting again from the lowest point you’ve been.

Yes as a phoenix she rises from the ashes of the chains of the industry, self made independent artists are rising and the artistic expression of this is at its height. Keep the fire Melanie don't let the haters take it away. We've missed you.
Today, I want to talk to you about the gospel of salvation according to Romans 6. The concept of sin is central to this discussion. Sin is the act of disobeying God's commands, and it has serious consequences. The Bible teaches that the penalty for sin is death, both physical and spiritual (Romans 6:23).
But there is good news. Through Jesus Christ, we have a way to be saved from our sins and have eternal life. Romans 6:23 goes on to say, "but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." This means that salvation is a free gift from God that we receive through faith in Jesus Christ.
So, how do we receive this gift of salvation? Romans 10:9 says, "That if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." This means that we need to confess our belief in Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross for our sins. By doing so, we are acknowledging that we are sinners in need of a savior, and that Jesus is the only way to be saved.
The significance of Jesus' sacrifice cannot be overstated. He died on the cross as a perfect sacrifice for our sins, taking the punishment we deserve so that we can be forgiven and reconciled to God. Through His resurrection, Jesus conquered sin and death, and offers us the gift of eternal life.
It is essential to understand that accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior is not merely a one-time decision, but a lifelong commitment. As we grow in our faith, we become more like Jesus, and our desire to follow His teachings increases. We are called to live a life of holiness and obedience to God's commands, not to earn our salvation, but as a reflection of our gratitude for what He has done for us.
I invite you to consider these teachings and make an informed decision about your faith. If you have not yet accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, I encourage you to do so today. Know that you are loved by God, and that He desires a personal relationship with you. May you experience the peace and joy that comes from knowing Him.

@ƺꪖᥴᛕ also I LOVE how she changed all the CRYBABY and K-12 thumbnails to be Crybaby’s grave
i dont know why, but this is the type of music that oddly makes me emotional. her journey of her exploring who she is and maturing to see that she didnt like the old her, and her ability to express that through music and art is just so beautiful to me. the more i listen to this the more i cry because melanie is one of those artists who will never be replicated.
i cry so hard with it too, her work is so beautiful and meaningful it makes me emotional too see the incredible things that a human can create
Hey lyrics on this album are especially beautiful and touching, this song is probably my favorite, the beginning and crybabies final words always make me cry lol
me too, i always feel like crying listening to this album
I'm just crying because I feel the lyrics
I love how her music is like a story! In the Crybaby album, a baby girl was born and named Crybaby and those song are about her home life and how she was when she was young. Next, in the K-12 album, Crybaby grows older and then goes through school, from kindergarten to 12th. Finally, in Portals, Crybaby's life has passed on and she's now a Nymph, her soul becoming another life. Melanie's music is absolutely incredible, and has deep meanings. She is most definitely my favorite artist!
I'm so happy Melanie is not afraid to express herself in so many different ways. this song is so amazing! i love how she can just make masterpieces. its such a flex to grow up with her music. she has such deep meaning in her songs and this one it just amazing. i love her so much and I can't wait for her to come out with the whole album. first the crybaby album, dollhouse episodes, K-12, and after school. this is gonna be a perfect masterpiece and it always will be. Melanie i hope you know that we all love you and were so grateful that you keep releasing these beautiful pieces of art. this is a real ARTIST. an AMAZING one at that. Melanie we love you and everything you've ever done.

I've always loved how creative Melanie is, since I was young I started learning her songs word by word. I still know the words years later. She continues to come out with amazing music that's not only creative, but meaningful. Music is an art. Melanie has taken the art of music and made it into something more. Something so beautiful that some people don't understand it anymore. Crybaby never left. She reincarnated.
I literally spent so much time memorizing the lyrics to all of her songs, I look forward to learning a whole new album and falling in love with it

Death is life is death is life is death is life is
They're carvin' my name in the grave again
The flowers are fresh and their faces wet
My body has died, but I'm still alive
Look over your shoulder, I'm back from the dead
Lightin' all your candles to draw me in
Sayin' all the same things, I'm gone this time
Your words mean nothin', so take 'em back
And meet me here across the plane
The other side, I'm not far
When you aren't around, I sink into the ground
I try to pretend I'm closer to you
Never understand it
You're always on my mind, I cannot help it
I don't wanna be carryin' the weight on my shoulders
Death has come to me, kissed me on the cheek, gave me closure
Immortal by design
I'll be meetin' you here every time
Back from the dead, back from the dead
I'm back from the dead, back from the dead

They're sayin' my name in their prayers again
I flicker the lights so they understand
I won't say goodbye, I'm right by your side
We're screamin' and pleadin', this separation ends
Doin' all your witchcraft to pull me in
Burnin' all your sage to connect our line
I show my presence, you run away in fear of ghosts
I try to talk, the barriers are too strong
When you aren't around, I sink into the ground
I try to pretend I'm closer to you
Never understand it
You're always on my mind, I cannot help it
I don't wanna be carryin' the weight on my shoulders
Death has come to me, kissed me on the cheek, gave me closure

Lost my mom two years ago, and I cannot tell you how this song has helped start finally healing. Just hearing some of the lyrics hit hard but also makes me feel as if though i was supposed to hear this for a reason. I really appreciate Melanie and her musical, beautiful mind. "I don't wanna be carryin the weight on my shoulders. Death has come to me kissed me on the cheek gave me closure." These lyrics specifically reminded me of when I went into a very dark and self harming phase after losing my mom, but hearing "Immortal by design. I'll be meetin' you every time." I couldn't help but break down, because I know I'll see her again when it's my time. This is the first time music has truly touched my soul like this.
Yeah it's really helped me with my grief and fears of death too! The ultimate self-soothing song!
Thank you for sharing this with us. I'm sorry for your loss but I'm glad you can find some comfort in Melanie's music. She's honestly so creative and unique.

i hate how people are saying they dont like the "new melanie". This has always been her. I've listened to her music since I ws in middle school and shes always been different from other artist. Thats what makes her so special to me; that she can be herself not afraid of the world judging her or giving into the worldly view on beauty standards and normality. Shes even expressed multiple times through her songs, for example "fire drill". She knows shes different but she embraces it. I strive to be like her.

The fact that I’ve been a crybaby / earthling since I was 12, Melanie has no idea how much her music means to me. When K-12 was released, I ugly cried because of the concept of the album & the messages behind each song and it helped me get through tough times by the time I started middle school. When Melanie posted the snippets of Portals on her Instagram, I was so happy because this album was 4 years worth waiting for. Melanie, thank you so much for saving my mental health with your music and I hope to meet you one day❤️
I remember my older sister walking into my room after school asking me if I wanted to have a dance party and her albums would always be playing while we listened and now I'm in middle school
