Electra Heart is the girl you run into in the supermarket wearing a faux fur coat and sunglasses, leisurely picking through the avocado. Her cart is filled with champagne and strawberries and she doesn’t even care that you’ve been staring at her from the bakery aisle. She’s angsty, and you can tell that her phone conversation didn’t end well by the way she dramatically dropped her phone and wiped a solitary tear from her cheek. The same cheek that has a eyeliner-drawn heart on it.
My new album Love + Fear is out April 26. Pre-order now: marina.lnk.to/...

LYRICS
I'm Electra, I'm Electra Heart
Only living, living in the dark
Lights they blind me
Can we go back, go back to the start?
Where the holy father made his mark
Lights they blind me
Can we go back?
Li-i-i...
Li-i-i...
Lights they blind me
For forgiveness you could always pray
That the sickness, it could go away
Lights they blind me
At the altar, would you pay the price?
Would you give your, would you give your life?
Lights they blind me
For forgiveness
Li-i-i...
Li-i-i...
Lights they blind me
Lights they blind me
Li-i-i...
Li-i-i...
Lights they blind me

This album concept is honestly so fucking genius. Play a character so you can make completely different music without being crucified for it and then killing off the character so you can go to a different sound on the next album without appearing inconsistent. Love.

Where does Electra die?
@@georgeofhamilton I believe Marina smearing the heart on her cheek represents Electra dying.
@@Ren-eo9if But Electra isn't actually shown dying, right?
@@georgeofhamilton No. She is dead though.
"I wanted to create this fictional character who was everything I was not, I wanted to be a strong, cold-hearted person. I feel like girls who are bitches always get the guy and never get hurt, ’cause that’s what we think! I wanted to create a character that allowed me to be like that.", said Marina in an interview for a Swedish tabloid in 2012.
Marina is absolutely brilliant :)
+Kitten Cuddles this fictional character is electra heart guys! Everyone loves creating stories about her but this is what marina is talking about guys. This is electra heart! :DD
+Kitten Cuddles can you kindly, shut the fuck up? 'preciation is shown man
Miss Tetra whats your problem? Some people don't understand why marina created electra heart. And you can kindly go and mind your own fucking business. I wouldn't need to listen to your bullshit if you ever commented so why don't you shut the fuck up? I kindly recommend you do :)
+Miss Tetra why do you have to be ignorant and ignore this comment?
Kitten Cuddles who says electra heart is even a woman. marina herself is the source, not you you fuking scene kid
The production of this song is on another level.
true
So high
Thank Betatraxx, aka Karma Fields. He's insane.
Legit though, Teddy Killerz remix takes this to a whole new level. Obsessed.
it actually gets a bit shoddy (imho) at some point. they spend too much time on radioactive and fear and loathing and power and control that they barely have time for anything else. i mean.. maybe it's intentional but the ending looks rushed. i DO know that like the last seconds or do is meant to be rushed but still
I think that is because part 8-10 of Electra Heart doesn't have much action, so they just rushed it so it wouldn't be boring. However, I do think they could have spent less time on Radioactive and more on HTBAH
It's 2020 ... I'm still asking myself: Why Electra heart did not break the internet and the whole world ? ....
Ikr
i mean some of her videos got 60+ million views so i'd say she made an impact, and inspired e-girls to be what they are.
Same
its so sad
THIS
This seems like a video saying "Well, electra heart was fun, but now it's over." especially when she wipes the heart off her cheek.
^ um honey no no no no NO
+Stephen Trash, it kind of is the death of Electra Heart.
The organ music in the interlude suggests a death. Usually, those are only played at churches for weddings or funerals, and since there sure as hell is no groom...
Furthermore, when Marina released this video, she had tweeted earlier that day, "Goodbye Electra Heart", thus suggesting that Electra Heart is over.
The sequence of the previous videos also suggests this, as it is a memory sequence- this is especially big in the fact that it references the saying "your life flashes before your eyes". That saying means that you're effectively dying, because the brain replays all the memories in the 7 minutes before absolute physical death. Finally, she released a poster online that said explicitly "The Death of Electra Heart: Coming August 8, 2013", as well as talk she made during FROOT era of her "killing off" Electra Heart via sleeping pills.
It really IS the death of Electra Heart.
I know but it's.... sad :( I loved Electra heart. and I like to think it's an only metaphorical suicide, like Electra finally went away to let Marina back in, and she comes back during performances. Marina even has the heart on her cheek when she performs during the Electra heart parts of her recent concerts
yes, she killed herself.
+Helmi Haikonen Electra didn't kill herself. Marina defeated her. You see how the heart was smudged and not completely erased? Electra kept existing but she was no longer part of Marina.
Electra Heart was a selfish and egocentric girl who wanted the world because she had low self-steem. We saw that in every song, how she hated herself and fill her emptyness in teen fantasies. All the stereotypes, we saw them in parts. But in this, the last part i understand that she was aware of all what she was, like she said "I'm Electra Heart, only living in the dark" She didn't know how to change. "Lights they blind me" Is because she is like another person when its about fame and attention. Lights blind her, of who she really are, a person who hate itself. And finally "Can we go back?" I think she want to change, she want to be herself and start accepting herself, then here comes FROOT.
I saw that image that says: "The Family Jewels" - Hating herself. "Electra Heart" - Fighting with herself. "Froot"- Accepting herself.
Just a theory(?) I love Marina!
oo I like it! Well she has said Electra Heart is a fictional character, someone put her exact words in another comment. Also she said in a interview fairly recently that she doesn't see herself in this album. Someone asked well do you in the Family Jewels, and she said yeah that's just the younger me.
Yeah ik it's her alter ego
but i was talking about electra haha
electra heart wasn't her alter ego, she was a fictional character but i love your theory!
From isn't even part of the theroy
i want to be electra heart
she is SUCH a good actress, she perfectly captures every character in every archetype she plays, and that's why she looks so different every time. she's genuinely a genuis
A super amazingly gorgeous genius, the worst kind
this is why she *_NEEDS_* to play megara in the live action hercules.
She could be an actress tbh if she wanted to, she has the capability to
In this song, Electra keeps saying "can we go back, go back to the start?". This is the final song on the album, so she's asking you to go back to Bubblegum Bitch, the first song on EH. She asks you to play the album again, so she can come back to life. Ain't Marina a fucking genius!?
also if you pay attention the heart on her cheek gets smaller as the story goes on. On the first mv, you can clearly see it's a heart, but in lies and in this video it's so small, looks more like a dot. that's 'cause electra is dying and fading away
Wait I don't see bubblegum bitch in the Playlist
Not exactly, she's asking you to go back to Fear and Loathing which is part 1/11 on the playlist
@@pathetic469 because it doesn’t have a music video, for that you have to listen to the Electra heart album. This playlist is of her music videos. You’d just have to search bubblegum b!tch up as a separate thing. 😄
Damn, am I the only one who simplistically interprets it as the plea for the return to the first phase of the Electra complex so that it's fixed, and nothing else apart from that? :P
Marina killing off Electra Heart with this legendary bop proves how legendary Electra was
Preach
This song ended off the album so good it snatched my weave off
+ily hserp same
Sad this still ain’t on spotify
@@harleybacon5979 it might be on Spotify because it’s on Apple Music it’s called Electra heart by betatraxx ft. Marina
@@unovashit5030 Yeah, that's what the song is under.
Marina: *breathes*
Fans: I wish it was more like Electra heart era :///

GODDESS OF DISAPPOINTED LOVERS: ELECTRA HEART
Capacity:
Despair of the teens idles: Give the "Despair" status to one of your party members, making them unable to move and get KO after 3 turn.
Homewreck: Huge damages to one of your party member. Insta kill if less than 50% HP.
Primadonna's light: Give either the "Flashed" or "Charmed" status to one of your party member.
Housewives fear: Give the "Paralysis" status to one of your party member.
This sounds like it would make a great epic dubstep remix or something like this
''Electra Heart was originally a side project, separate from Marina And The Diamonds,I called my manager in April 2011 and said "Hello. Can I pretend to be a totally different person? He said "No. You cannot", I calmly put the phone down and screamed til eternity''
- MARINA
So what happened ? She still did it without her manager permission?
My theory of electra heart. It's long but well thought out. This is just the story I've come up with. I could be way off.
Part 1 (Fear and Loathing): Electra wants to change herself after most breakups. She's tired of always being scared and sad all the time.
Part 2 (Radioactive): Electra changes everything from her style to the way she acts toward the breakup. Instead of loathing, she trashes her ex boyfriends house and competley leaves everything behind and leaves town.
Part 3 (The Archetypes): She changes her identity and becomes the girlfriend of a rich man. If you listen to the background, the robotic voice focuses on identiy and becoming your "real self". It also says "housewife" and Electra is dressed in really rich clothing.
Part 4 (Primadonna): The rich man she's seeing becomes obsessed with her and eventually proposes to marry her. When they get married her husband spoils her with gifts. Electra continues the act of a self obsessed "primadonna girl". In the song she also talks about being difficult.
Part 5 (Su-barbie-a): Electra, being the difficult girl she says she is, starts arguing with the man a lot. In the video, you can hear arguing between a man and a woman in the background. Also, if you listen closely to the voice it talks a lot about barbies. Barbies are usually controlled by other people. I think the voice is the man convincing her which dresses to wear and how to look, etc. The man was controlling Electra.
Part 6 (Power & Control): She's tired of being controlled by the man. In the video it's a constant battle between the man and electra heart. She says at the end of the video, "All my life i've been controlled. You can't have peace without a war." I think this was a warning that she was leaving him and she's gonna make his life terrible.
Part 7 (HTBAH): After the two argue on and off, Electra wants to make the man feel terrible like he's done to her. She has many affairs with different guys. The video explains how to be a heartbreaker. I don't think she meant to the guys she just met, but to the man that has been controlling her for a long time. She also changes her hair back to black and dresses like she used to.
Part 8 (E.V.O.L): After a long time of going back and fourth constantly hurting each other, their love gets "fucked up" by the "drop of evil". The man went behind her back and also did the same thing with a different girl that he ends up marrying. The both of them together and their mistakes ruined the relationship they had together.
Part 9 (State Of Dreaming): Electra realizes that her whole life has been a lie. She was only pretending to be someone she's not. She's in a state of dreaming that doesn't end. She goes back to acting like how she orginially did before all of the blonde hair and "primadonna" attitude.
Part 10 (Lies): The man and Electra still secretly see each other behind his wife's back. Electra can't do anything about it because she is still in love with the man. When she started acting like her usual self, he left her for another woman. She used to put up an act and she offers to put the act on again. "I'm not the type that you like. Why don't we just pretend?" In the video it also says "You only ever touch me in the dark..." "And only in the evening could you give yourself to me, cause the night is your woman and she'll set you free". This explains that Electra and the man still have an affair "in the dark" behind her back. He goes home to woman at night "cause the night is your woman". She wan'ts it to be perfect. She say's she wants to believe it's all been worth the fight, but she won't ever get him back again.
Part 11 (Electra Heart): She's Electra Heart, "only living in the dark". She's tired of being the other woman because that's all she will ever be. She also says in the video "Can we go back, go back to the start?" asking if they could be how they used to be, together. She talks about her other options too "You could always pray that the sickness, it could go away". This means she could always hope that she'd get over him and stopped being depressed about him all the time. Another option she brings up is "Would you give your, would you give your life?". At the end of the video when she whipes the heart off of her cheek it obviously symbolizes that she killed herself.
👏👏👏👏👏👏
wooooo woooo wooo O_O amazing...
this comment is life
this is such a good interpretation i love it omg
This comment is the best theory ever . Oh god , ur the best
this video is a mindfuck when you realize it's the full story of how Electra Heart was born. i was sh00k when she wiped the heart off her cheek.
me
Same. Bitch got me SHOOK
Lana the Satan OMG SAME IVE BEEN TRYING TO FIND THE WORDS TO DESCRIBE THE FEELING SINCE I FIRST SAW THIS
juiced.froot i love your username and profile pic omegawd
i was shooketh
R.I.P. Electra Heart Aug/8/2013 Electra Heart was a Housewife, Beauty Queen, Homewrecker & Idle Teen. She was found early this morning in her apartment. It appears that she committed suicide. Electra Heart was only 27 years old, and was a very active member of the Lonely Hearts Club. Her death was sudden. Electra Heart now leaves behind her many fans, her poodle Marilyn, and her string of lovers.
awesome😂
+Vince Garza AJ Shhhh.... She's still alive.... somewhere
+james williams shhhhh she's locked in FROOT marina's basement being a bottle blonde and wrecking homes via tinder.
DONNIE DARKO Let's go get her she must come back 😂
This was from that poster/newspaper picture, right? This just sounds so familiar but I can't quite put my finger on it lol. I know I heard it before.
Ok but can we just appreciate the description. Like I can't stop reading it-
"Electra Heart is the girl you run into in the supermarket wearing a faux fur coat and sunglasses, leisurely picking through the avocado. Her cart is filled with champagne and strawberries and she doesn’t even care that you’ve been staring at her from the bakery aisle. She’s angsty, and you can tell that her phone conversation didn’t end well by the way she dramatically dropped her phone and wiped a solitary tear from her cheek. The same cheek that has a eyeliner-drawn heart on it.
"
THAT LAST SHOT OF HER WIPING THE HEART OFF GETS ME EVERY TIME
sophie It’s so impactful.
sophie I think I'm blind I don't see it
sophie oof nvm
How does everybody know she killed herself?
Wait where is that?!
i miss u electra heart.
don't we all
+SparklePet AJ i do too she looked so hot in her blonde hair...i mean yeah she looks flawless in her black hair too but i have a big attraction to blondes lol
me too. I don't like the froot era. :'(
+Ju M. When youre a fake fan because you dont like FROOT
that's not true lol, you can still be a fan even tho you just didn't like one era, if you supported the artist...
So,
You know how people say when you're dying, your life flashes before your eyes?
What if, when Electra was dying, her life flashed before her eyes.
And that's what this is whole video is?
Just dying Electra's flashback of her life.
IM
I want marina to answer thia
This is genius...
Thats most likely to be the main idea behind it, Marina never puts out stuff or records things for the sake of it
Wait so if that were true then the lines “and the day has come where I have died only to find I’ve come alive” from teen idle would heavily support this, but more like my past self has died but now I’m a new person kind of deal.
Electra Heart was one of the best concept albums of the 21st century.
the best*
@@rikinfectedradiohead,lana,melanie,she has stiff competition!
Tea, it was truly a moment in pop culture at the time. Chappell Roan is picking up the torch rn though
Right I totally agree but she could never surpass Miss America with her alter ego Born to die. So Electra heart becomes at number 2 instead.
i can't believe it has been 3 years already, this era was iconic
make that 4
I'm officially old, I want to go back to the early 2010s with music. Stuff like Lana and Marina and Chelsea were so important with their albums then that I just was content to have a relationship with their music. It was just this whole epic...thing. I don't know if anyone or anything will strike me the same way ever again in popular music. Lana was the first person since Tori Amos who I felt that way about. That's almost two decades of having lukewarm feelings about new music.
Yup, and I miss it
Actually 5 years ur crazies
More like 6 years
Marina is just so underrated..
nah she just isn't known
+xXlady'smanXx boi
Patrick Smith it's true, most of her fans thinks she's perfect
BathNApe Clearly that is a damn lie
Harlynn Grey What's a lie.
I know this album is now old and over, but I still wanna talk about it! I do not think Fear & Loathing is meant to be a second or alternate ending at all (but it is up to how the person wants to interpret it, I just want to share my thoughts!). In Fear & Loathing, we see her putting on make up, while the rest of her looks a mess. She wants to stop living in bitterness. She's lived many different lives, trying to be different people - but I do not think she wants to stop. She does not want to be herself, or she'd live in fear & loathing. We see her cut her hair, which takes us to Radioactive. Radioactive, we can see she's attempting to bleach or dye her hair blonde, and it is still short from when she cut it. She wants to be a "bottle blonde," now. We see her put on the blonde wig, because that's who she wants to be & she hasn't gotten her hair to that state just yet. She's trying to pretend that whatever heartache she just went through won't phase her too much, because SHE wants to be the heart breaker now. She's radioactive.
Archetypes: In Archetypes, she still is not Electra Heart yet. She's thinking of different archetypes that she could be. Housewife, beauty queen, home wrecker or an idle "Idol" teen. At the end when it says, "Electra Heart... are you for real?" I think it's supposed to signify that Electra Heart can be anyone she wants. She can be anyone she wants.
Primadonna: She's now Electra Heart, as we can see this is the first video with the heart on her cheek. Her first archetype.
Su-barbie-a: Kinda of a creepy video, as she does not show her face the entire time. I think this is supposed to mean she is faceless, because she can be whoever she wants. She's playing around with the idea of a housewife. I think it is also reminiscent of America's 50s era. Women were expected to be beautiful and domestic.
Power & Control: This is when she realizes she can use power to be in charge of a relationship. She says in the song she's been controlled her whole life, and I think she means in relationships. She's done with that.
How to be a Heartbreaker: She's lost the blonde, and is probably a little more cynical about love than before in Radioactive. She's created a list of rules on how to be a heartbreaker. She wants to be in control of guys. She does not want to be played ever again, so she's the player this time.
E.V.O.L: She's definitely very cynical about love now. She's realized how evil love really is. How it can change people, or "fuck up two beautiful people." I'd also like to point out the lyrics, "how I'd love to be your suicide blonde." while she has black hair again. I wish I knew the symbolism here. It shows us images of her as the homewrecker, housewife, and a beauty queen. I think this means she's starting to reflect on her archetypes.
The State of Dreaming: This is a turning point for Electra Heart, I think. She admits she's been living lies, in a state of dreaming. I think this song is pretty reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe. Everyone quotes Marilyn Monroe, but her death was not as glamorous as her life and sayings. Electra Heart knows she's dreaming, but she's too scared to come back to reality. "If only you knew my dear, how I live my life in fear. If only you knew my dear, how I know my time is near." She knows her death is coming. She almost does not want to wake up from her state of dreaming. She just wanted a wonderful life.
Lies: She's becoming back to herself again. The heart is small, because Electra Heart is fading. She knows her archetypes and life cannot change how she feels. She feels heartbroken. A relationship devastated her, and she's ruined. She's not wearing as much make up as Electra Heart would. We can see it's about evening in the video, and it goes into night time as she moves into the forest. I think the banquet is supposed to be a symbol of how she never married, even though she really wanted to. I think that's what it means anyway. She knows her time has come, and she's leaving the house for the forest. There's a cool scene in the forest where she walks behind a tree, but she never crosses the other side, and I think that is the moment she dies.
Electra Heart: This song is supposed to be a long suicide note. "I'm Electra Heart, only living in the dark." The lights of revelation are blinding her, because she's been in the dark for so long. "Can we go back, go back to the start. Where the Holy Father made his mark." She wants to go back to Fear & Loathing, right before her fate was set into motion. She wishes she was never Electra Heart. I wish I knew how to interpret that smirk of hers in the forest! "For forgiveness, you could always pray. That the sickness, it could go away." I think the sickness is supposed to mean how she lives her life in lies.
That's my interpretation anyways... hope you like it.
thanks guys! :D
this is one of the best theories i've read about Electra omg
yes. this is just right.
I like your theory.
LadyNani8 I had the same felling ladynani8 good comment ;) The other comments are like uhhhghh u r wrong.
Guys, imagine how legendary this is that I am afraid to confirm that Marina created a monster, because Electraheart still haunts Marina to 2021, which I think is not a bad thing but of what I have seen and perceived is that sometimes Marina feels uncomfortable that people are not over this era and her new music gets overshadowed by Electraheart.
Right.. she cannot get rid of her that why she could not succeed as much as In this album she did.. but then she had to kill her but even so it’s like a phantom it will always follow her it’s her own self hunting her
Okay, so my friend and I are hardcore Diamonds, and I came up with this theory from the videos and lyrics that he added on to and I'll try to explain it as best as I can!
Part 1: Fear and Loathing is Electra getting rid of who she once was. Perhaps it was after a breakup or something? This is not the first time, either. (been many people different times).
Part 2: Radioactive is Electra meeting a new man who she feels like she's on top of the world with. Together, they are toxic and destructive (when you're around me, I'm radioactive) but again, she feels amazing with him. Also, she tries blonde. Perhaps her boyfriend enjoys it.
Part 3: The Archetypes. Electra actually dyes her hair blonde and actually becomes Electra Heart, and is showing the world who she has become. Also, she is revealing that she and the man are now married (housewife).
Part 4: Primadonna. Electra is sure of who she is now, and she gets into a whole "I don't need anyone but myself" place. She feels like the queen of the world.
Part 5: SU-BARBIE-A, Electra's husband doesn't appreciate her telling him he's unneeded, and so they begin to argue constantly, as evidenced by the arguing in the background.
Part 6: Power and Control. Electra's marriage is beginning to fall apart, and they both begin cheating on each other. It becomes a literal power play for both of them.
Part 7: How To Be a Heartbreaker, Electra is now divorced from her husband and is now fooling around with several new men. Also, she removed the blonde from her hair, going back to her natural dark hair.
Part 8: E.V.O.L, Electra begins to realise that she is a little heartbroken and "fucked up" after divorcing her husband. The fun with new boys has run dry.
Part 9: State of Dreaming, Electra realises that she ruined her own life by being narcissistic and unappreciative. She realises that she's been "living in a make-believe land" where she didn't need anyone but herself.
Part 10: Lies. Electra gets her husband back. Sort of. He doesn't love her anymore, and she's completely heartbroken. Their relationship now is purely sexual, and she knows it will never be mended.
Part 11: Electra Heart. Electra's life has fizzed out, and after ruining her marriage and losing her husband and all the happiness she ever had, Electra kills herself.
Also: There are so many marriage metaphors everywhere! And perhaps her husband had a girlfriend or wife when he and Electra first met in Radioactive, and thats where "Homewrecker" comes in.
Thanks for reading this mess haha, hope it made sense! xx
Ashton Irwin The most "makes-sense" theory I've read until now, good job!
8/8/13, Electra Heart, dead by sleeping pills abuse
Ashton Irwin but, what about starring role, living dead, buy the stars and lonely hearts club?
Ashton Irwin well that explain sex yaeh that is my favorite from the electra heart.
best electra heart theory ive heard
You know, I'd really appreciate it if Marina would explain the story herself, because all of these fan theories are confusing me.
Same
ask her , shes having another Q&A live stream soon
Right!!!
She said It kinda explains how Pop tries to embody a lot of stuff or something but I know there's a story
***** Then just listen and come up with your own. I'm pretty sure she's just going over stereotypes many women get trapped in thanks to what the media says women should do, and when a girl is wounded she is easy to trick.
She's definitely not encouraging what her character says is right to do. I'd take it as both an explanation for what's wrong with younger romantic lives as well as depicting some of the mindsets that practice it.
RIP Electra Heart "House Wife, Beauty Queen, Homewreker, Idle Teen"
i'm sad
electra died three years ago
what did you guys are listening now? at the beggining of this year i was obcessed with Marina. Now i'm obcessed with k-pop. I never had interest before, and then one day i just searched k-pop on youtube. My life changed since it. (sorry any mistakes, i'm not from a country that speak english)
+Tomoko Tdg you remember me to a friend (she´s also obssesed with k-pop)
me: I’m gay
my catholic family: 1:45 - 1:58
this comment is so underrated
LMAOAAOAOAO STOP
AHAHAHHA FR
Four years later, I rewatch this and finally get that this video isn't just a compilation of all her Electra Heart videos, the video is supposed to be symbolic of Electra's life flashing before her eyes (as it supposedly does before you die).
Well played, Marina.
I think that as u can see at the start she's on a balcony and i think that she committed suicide bc she jumped of the balcony
@@kubusiq she od’d on sleeping pills
@@ayeshaandthediamonds9147 exactly. As the newspaper article, shared by Marina, said also in Teen Idle she expresses her suicidal tendencies, in Valley of the Dolls (as we know from the book, sleeping pills/basically drugs were regarded as DOLLS) she expresses her feelings of emptiness and identity crisis, saying she’s already mentally dying like a shooting star and alludes suicide using dolls, then we have Fear and Loathing that ends the album (I’m not counting deluxe tracks) and the last lyrics she sings about death, like, you can’t interpret it any other way. Then we hear birds and her granny’s voice singing in Greek somewhere where Electra got after her death. She’s reflecting on her life in the entire song, recognizing how destructive life she’s had and she’s tired of it. Putting it as part 1, Marina already told us the faith of Electra, which is brilliant.
Let’s not forget Living Dead (I’m from Europe and had it on my cd (also the demo is so much better, I was disappointed with overproduction, I just like her harmonies in the background, nice touch demo lacks) in the song she literally says what her life’s like and how she actually feels. There’s no room for interpretation, song’s literal. It’s a very important one, so I don’t understand why the US had it scrapped.
@@SlavicRusa turns out she faked her own d3ath as the article of "Electra found alive" says
It's been a year since Electra Heart's death!
Wait she died I don't get it
amalia merino She didn't die. The artist has an alter ego named Electra Heart, her alter ego died, not her.
Oh
She dies but never forgoten
***** Electra Heart isn't an alter ego, it's a full on character she made up, though I'm sure there are some things that are based off of herself and her life.
the person who edited this video is a fucking genius
I still think this is one of the best album stories of all time.
Basically, Electra Heart was her alter ego, then Marina wanted to be herself again so she erased or killed Electra? I think thats it, not entirely sure though. But I do know one thing for sure...I'm gonna freakin miss Electra.
Electra isn't an alter ego, is the person Marina used to represent the Archetypes, Idle Teen, Homewrecker, Beauty Queen and Housewife, Electra was those 4 persons, and finally she got tired of being different people so she killed herself
Hi chloe
OH HI CHLOE
I know everyone (and herself) deny that it’s a part of her personality (my guess is bc of misogynistic backlash) but if you saw her damn chart it’s very clearly another facet of who she is/was lol. I live for Electra heart
Omg chloe has some good taste
Omg come back Marina where are you:(
She should have a new album this year! She wanted to take a year (2013) off and go back home, Britain.
Her new album is coming in September!
Did Marina say that herself? If so, where?
Say what herself? C:
IcyBlaziken im pretty sure her record company of hers
This whole album is a story. A masterpiece. Talk about Grammy worthy!
Electra wasnt just an Album, it was a Moment in Pop History.
There should definitely be a movie about Electra. Maybe Marina would like to be an actor someday. I hope so.
There was supposed to be a movie about this I think, called heart core but it fell through. Must Google it.
+Ellie Haselnuss well Marina does want to try acting, but i highly doubt she would ever revisit Electra Heart as inspiration.
***** well I wouldn't say she despises her, that's a bit much, but yeah she doesn't feel like the era portrayed who she is an as an artist correctly.
Yeah she hated the era but it had some amazing songs on the album...
+RedEmbers22 She doesn't hate the era. She just feels like she wasn't herself in that era.
How is she so beautiful
because she is marina ^^
genetics and makeup? lmao
illusion
literally what I have been asking myself for a year now
Alondra Gamez haha :)
Rest in peace Electra Heart. 💖
this era was iconic and genius! it paved the way for so many artists debuting in around 2015-2018. marina also ruled tumblr, which is funny because tumblr was actually part of her inspiration! electra heart will always hold a special place in my heart!
Her emotions and her face would fit American Horror Story so good. **AHS Season 6: Electra Heart**
Omg Yasss!!
+Nick Nicoletti lets all sign a fucking petiton
Omfg yes xD
YES
yes
ALSO: I think that Primadonna was the start of Electra Heart as a person, because it is the first video that she has the heart on her cheek. Maybe Radioactive and Fear and Loathing were what she was like BEFORE she turned herself into Electra and changed her views and opinions.
When she became a Primadonna girl, she lost all of her previous traits, and ultimately became Electra Heart.
But idk
You're a genious...
That's what I was thinking as well
LUCAS BIOKCA Well you're not one... Genius
i think fear and loathing was her transition from marina into electra and she adopted the heart sign after as her new symbol, so that she could be a new person and that represented her new love. ( she stated she was more bitter at the time of TFJ and was a lot more loving after she made EH so maybe thats a symbolization of her love growing but slowly dying as she progressed through and realized it was all fake and she was living a lie, stated in the song "state of dreaming")
When this album was released, I was only 10 years old and I only listened to Primadonna: the popular song
I've been listening to Marina full-time for 2 years now and I'm kinda sad that this masterpiece wasn't introduced to me earlier.
wow i got the same
Yeah I wish I had been older when this came out so I could've tried to piece the story together as each part came out but alas
Let's all appreciate how Marina can rock any hair color.

Oh my fucking GOD! A FROOT! A FUCKING REFERENCE TO HER NEW ALBUM MAYBE THAT WE NEVER CAUGHT THE FIRST TIME? AMAZING!
Where is the froot? I can never find it...
RedEmbers22 She's on a small ladder, holding a fruit which looks like an apple? IDK. But yeah. I always wondered why it was there.
RedEmbers22 It's at 2:16. Also in the Primadonna video.
Ok thanks I found it
I'm pretty sure that she wasn't writing for the new album until the later half of 2013. Unless she randomly felt the urge to put a fruit in the video, then this most likely wasn't a reference. Maybe she'll come out and say if it was a reference or not!
Oh Gosh , we need new music , come on Marina :(
#FROOT
Did anyone else notice how big the heart on her cheek was in Primadonna and it slowly got smaller? Now, at the end she wipes it off.
she was dying, perhaps?
***** wow.. thx ms. Obvious
lari nenonen What is obvious to you, may not be to others. No need to be a sassy sally.
ChloeBreanna There's always need for a sassy sally
Idk why but I feel a certain feeling whenever i listen to this song, idk how to explain it, like this is it, this song wraps up the whole album, like "Electra heart was fun, but it's the end now"
I loved the Froot era, but the Electra Heart era will always have a little more special of a place in my heart. I don't know, just something about the character and the aesthetic of the album. Either way, I can't wait to see where this goddess goes next. ♥
***** Same here, except Teen Idle was the first I heard from her. Strangely enough I didn't like it the first time I heard it, but by the second time I gave it a listen I was obsessed.
***** Same. Do you follow Marina on Instagram? She's been uploading a lot of photos of Greek women and Greek culture, and I hope that means the next album will be Greek mythology related.
When she releases new music i may just die of happiness. I love her so much.
Watching this gives me the chills. It brings back so many diffrent emotions and memories from all the things I went through during the electra heart era. I love her new music but electra heart will always be special to me.
Okay Hear Me Out:
Primadonna : Marie Antoinette
Starring role : Marilyn Monroe
Radioactive : Marie Curie
State of Dreaming: Sylvia Plath
Feel free to add on this
I think Subarbie-A was more Sylvia Plath

omg our bdays our only 2 days apart, mine is the 10th
@iamhalouma well electra's bday is valentines day but i meant the birth of the video series. still will celebrating tho!!
I waiting for next Marina album. I think her Third album will be the best of all. The Family Jewels was amazing, Electra was epic and.....(......) will be fucking awesme.
is she actually making a third album or is that your speculation? i so need more songs from her
Shes actually making the third album, people says it is will be released in September 2014 but i think marina will release it in 2015. Sorry for grammar.
She was talking about this but its still my speculation. Marina is young and she can create a a lot of albums.
R.I.P Electra Heart ♡ 3 Years
:'(
why? I dont understand
shes no longer electra heart
Michael O, this song/vid signifies the death of Electra Heart. The lyrics up until the very ending of the song when she smudges her heart is a symbolism of her death
Ricardo González can you please explain this electra heart's death?
6 years since Electra Heart passed away. Gone but never forgotten.
This is the soundtrack to my life
same
This is genius the way she turned her heartbreak into some fine ART.
ELECTRA IS ALIVE AND BREATHING ON NEON NATURE TOUR
you're mixing up Marina and Electra
Anonymous Fangirl Gurl, Marina goes electra on the NNT
THE SUPREME nah I just interpretated your sentence in another way,sorry
Electra Heart has turned into an egregore, and true to her nature and character, refuses to die despite having committed suicide. The Platinum Blonde release is testament of the tenacity of Electra Heart's haunting. This track in particular best portrays her true nature: lamenting about her pain and regrets, yet beckoning you to play the album from the beginning again, so she can come back to life, so she can do it all over again, in an impossible quest to satiate her neverending greed...
has anyone noticed how electra's heart would become smaller as each video came out?
I thought I was the only one who noticed but I guess not :0
+CRY BABY i thought it was just a coincidence
the size of the heart depends on her ego.
+CRY BABY It represent's the electra heart slowly dying
No, Oh My Gosh!
R.I.P Electra Heart 08/08/2013
Marina is just so perf 💕👌
Marina didn't want to be in fear and loathing about identities but Electra Heart was so radioactive she wanted to explore women archetypes because she thought, through others we become ourselves. Electra Heart was a Primadonna and wanted everything to fill the void of loneliness so she lives in Su- Barbie-ia where it was all about beauty. She then gained power and control by becoming a heartbreaker because she thought if she broke everyone else's heart she wouldn't be the one that got hurt. However she knew love is evil but she was living in a state of dreaming. Electra Heart then realised she was falling deeper in the void because of all the lies she was telling herself. She couldn't find away out of the void she created so Electra killed herself. She watched her life flash before her eyes then her heart disappeared and that was the end of Electra Heart.
Welcome to the life of Electra Heart.
Now she sleeps in the valley of the dolls.
omgg
Well! This just blew my mind... perfectly put!
lustfordiamonds She does.
I like how you used the songs ;)
Waiting for "Electra Heart: The Return"
sorry to disappoint you, but in her first interview after releasing froot she said she would never do something like electra heart again :/
Natália I haven't seen that interview anywhere, could you link it please?
.
SpontaneousGames www.thelineofbestfit.com/features/interviews/marina-and-the-diamonds-froot/ here! :) "I was really grateful for the experiences and opportunities that Electra Heart gave me, but I will never do it again." :/
Electra Heart: Resurrection 😂pleasee
I love how she just cuts the fuck out of her hair and it still looks beautiful, but if I were to go to a barber they'd fuck my hair up.
She is a musical archetype! I just cannot find anything else which is a suitable definition!
finally this track is on streaming platforms. Congratulations Electra Heart for your 10 years. Thank you Marina
Can I just... She died on my birthday
Wow. I actually think nothing is worse than having her die on your birthday. I'm crying for you.
+Painting Kitteh YOU ARE ELECTRA HEART
OH MY GOOOD
HOLY
Thats sad, ¿you want some tea?
i think i found out the story behind electra heart?? idk heres the parts of the story and the song corresponding to it:
Part 2: Radioactive - Marina wants an alter ego to play around with love. In Radioactive, she is figuring out what her alternate personality should be.
Part 5: Su-Barbie-A - She finally comes to the decision of Electra Heart. This image is based of a Barbie Doll.
Part 4: Primadonna & Part 6: Power and Control - Marina gains control over her lovers and they pamper her with care, money and love.
Part 7: How to be a Heartbreaker - Marina is in the swing of things and is skipping from one relationship to another.
Part 8: E.V.O.L - She unexpectedly gets pregnant and has no clue as to who the father is. She regrets ever wanting to play with love.
Part 9: State of Dreaming - She tries to forget the situation by drinking and partying her pain away.
Part 3: The Archetypes - She knows the direction that her life is going to end up in: Idle Teen to a Home-wrecker, to a Beauty Queen, and finally a Housewife, and deeply regrets her choice of becoming Electra Heart. Nonetheless, she tries to find the father of her baby and is determined to start a new life.
Part 10: Lies - When she finally finds the father, he refuses to help her raise the baby. Shortly after, Marina suffers a miscarriage.
Part 11: Electra Heart/ Part 1: Fear and Loathing - There are two endings to Electra Heart's story:
- Fear and Loathing - Marina changes her ways and carries on with a new life.
- Electra Heart - She commits suicide.
this is literally just my theory tho but it took longer than expected rip
Oh God, that was so fucking real, it's very interesting your theory :) x
oh my god
I really hope what happened was Fear and Loathing...
ABOMINABLE KITTEN!!!!!!! Me too.
I like your point of view!
The best I ever saw so far.
Electra Heart is NOT the alter ego of Marina. She is a character marina created for her 2nd album, a representation of the stereotypes of women. The archetypes. There is a difference between an alter ego and a fictional character, learn it and stop throwing out lazy answers to confused people.
this is maybe the best concept visual album ever and we need to talk about it!
She... wiped... the electric heart..
*Cries.*
Nu!
This is what i love about Marina her album wasn't just songs, they were songs that told the story of electra heart throughout her life.
I wish her new record will sound like this :)
RIP Electra. You deserved happiness. 💜
I love how Marina sings, like she's cocky and sarcastic, kinda like she's laughing at some inside joke.
R.I.P Electra Heart x
this whole persona was so carefully thought out.. i love it
We are getting this song on the album FINALLY, it only took 10 years OMG.
I'm soooo excitedddd!!!
Finally!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭
did she actually work with this character for 3 years? That's a long time, yo
2 years to the day, since uploading the first video for Fear & Loathing.
PLAY THIS AT MY FUNERAL. FOR REAL.
On Valentine's Day show your support for Marina by wearing Electra on your cheek♥
thats actually a good idea lol
ALWAYS LIVIN IN MY HEART
The message that she portrays with album and the collection of all the videos is absolutely one epic art piece. Sorry gaga I'm going to have to say this is real art pop!
Electra heart was everyones sassiest, baddest, and somehow also best and powerful self. I miss this character so much!
You mean everyone's fakest, most narcissistic and selfish self?
My heart strings....THEY BURN
It’s been 10 years since you’ve left this world Electra Heart… We miss you a lot.
Electra didn’t pass over she’s still here haunting us all
Ok, guys, don't quote me on this, but I think I figured it out.
Part `1: Fear and Loathing - Marina just got out of a bad relationship. She cuts her hair because she hates who she is, just like her previous boyfriend.
Part 2: Radioactive - Marina finally found someone, who is already in a relationship. She wears the blonde wig and the mask and they drive to a remote place in the middle of nowhere so no one recognizes them. At the end of the video, she takes of thet blonde wig because she's tired of hiding. She wants everyone to know she's in love with this guy.
Part 3: The Archtypes - Marina wants to change who she is to make her the only girl in her boyfriend's life. She decides to create Electra Heart, who is modeled just like the other woman, who is practically like a Barbie doll.
Part 4: Primadonna - Electra is carrying out the "Barbie doll" image. She dyed her hair blonde just like his other girlfriend. She pretends to be just like her, a girl who needs everything she wants at that very second, like a primadonna.
Part 5: Su-Barbie-A - Electra finds the struggle in being a "Barbie doll." In order for a Barbie doll to be useful, someone else needs to move it, play with it, control it. She is tired of having her boyfriend control her. I believe the reason we can't see her face is because she is changing from the "Barbie doll" to a real woman.
Part 6: Power & Control - Electra is in control of her boyfriend, and she's trying to see how she can use her new found power, and she finally decides how to.
Part 7: How to be a Heartbreaker - Electra uses her power to try and force her boyfriend into breaking up with the other girl. She is teaching him "how to be a heartbreaker." She also redyes her hair to brown because she believes she doesn't need to impersonate the other woman. She believes she has "won" the guy.
Part 8: E.V.O.L - In part 8, the boy breaks up with Electra, making her distraught. She is put in a depressed state, making her believe that all love is evil.
Part 9: State of Dreaming - In this new part, there are multiple things going on. The first and last sections of the video are in black and white, which is her reality, lost and drained of any color. The colorful parts are her dreams. She believes that everything is fine, and her plan worked for the better. The boy broke up with his girlfriend and is still with Electra. In the end, it returns to black and white because Electra has woken up, and finds herself in her sad reality.
Part 10: Lies - In part 10, Electra realizes that her dreams are lies. She also realizes that Electra Heart is a lie. Electra isn't Marina, not at all. Marina realizes that Electra has ruined her life, she has lost a man she loves, she has been depressed, she has been pretending to be someone she's not, thanks to Electra.
Part 11: Electra Heart - In the conclusion of the series, Electra reflects her whole past with the boy, starting from the beginning of "Fear and Loathing." In the end, Electra goes into the woods and kills herself, for the heartache she is feeling, and for the pain she has caused Marina.
The end!
I hope you like my theory.
Woah, thought that heart was a tattoo! Didn't know it was marker she used on all her music videos. Really cool.
Actually, it's eyeliner!
Im glad it wasnt a tattoo, she looks perfect the way she is :D
XgenDaNcEs ...It wouldn't make much of a difference if it was a tattoo.
Because it's the size of a fucking ant. Are you seriously trying to sound like one of those people. "SHES BOTIFUL TEH WEY SHE IZ"
It was actually eyeliner :) The heart kept shrinking in each part.
Since Electra is dead, I think it'd be pretty awesome if, should Marina ever have a show near Halloween, she were to dress up as Electra, back from the grave.
But she said she would never put back on the wig
She does the Electra thing all the time. In any concert, if she goes into the Electra Heart phase (which happens often) she'll have the little heart.
@@serenityvelvet667 It was a wig?
Rip queen
I love the evolution of Marina to Electra to Marina again. And I love how Froot starts with Happy. I feel like it explains a little what went on with her self and where she's finding herself now. I can't express enough how much I love the depth and meaning of Marinas music. I could go on for hours, in fact I usually do.
Can I get an Amen for Electra Heart, Please?
Badlands' Cry Baby amen
Amen
Amen
Amen
amen
Marina's better than Lorde !
If marina and the diamonds 🔹 perform at Coachella next year the internet would loose there shit, no one would expect it and everyone would feel the nostalgia of the Tumblr days ❤
♡ RIP Electra Heart ♡
