Marina, I'm not exaggerating but this song feels like it is about me and ever since I heard it, I have felt such hope and happiness that I didn't know I could feel. I no longer want to die for the first time since something bad happened aged 12 and I'm now 25, I've tried to commit suicide a lot, in September I really thought I was gonna jump off a bridge to finally finally die, but I am never going to do it again. This song gave me a new outlook, this song gave me the hope I needed to go on, I love you so much. Diamond since I first heard your perfect voice many years ago. Diamond forever
you only live once. i'am happy that this song made you happier and gave you a new outlook to life. it's never nice to read people in crises and with that kind of feeling. i'am really happy for you that she gave you hope. sorry for my english i'am portugues living in england.
***** Is not just "someone singing" something, is the message implicit in the song, you'll never know how a song can reach the very core of a person and change it
This is a truly epic moment in pop history. Will this sell like Michael Jackson's Thriller? No. Is this one of the most beautiful pieces of music and performances in history? ABSOLUTELY.
Honestly I love marina's fandom, I love the comment section, I love her music, I love marina, I love everything about her. Her fandom is full of people who love her music. The comment section is empty of haters and people that want to make fun of other people. Her music Is full of emotions and lovely messages, sometimes happy, sometimes Sad, sometimes full of hope but always With a meaning. And her voice has something that gives her songs a very beautiful sound. It's perfect.
@@justcameron4765 Fr, we're so dedicated and all of us love Marina for the same reason I believe. Might not be the biggest fandom but certainly one of the best The only thing I dislike is the part of the fandom who won't stop complaining about Love + Fear or those who basically make fun of Marina for not being famous enough ? You always have a few bad apples I guess
@@Vic-sw1td i agree!! the majority of interactions i’ve had with this fandom has been awesome, everyone’s so sweet. but yeah, like most things someone has to come and make things a little unpleasant. but like besides them, i feel like we’re a big family you know? obviously marina is such an amazing artist so this fandom is made up of people with great taste, and i love them so much :)
When 'Froot' came out, I found out my ex boyfriend was dating another girl. I remember when I listened to 'Happy' and I cried alot. Marina helped me to get through from the darkest days of my life, getting sick and suffering from an eating disorder, she may don't know how much she is helping me with her music, I relate to this song and mostly, because I know how much a song can heal you, stay strong guys.
That's beautiful, thank you too all the artists out there, I know I've had my fair share of problems that were helped or lessened by the power these amazing artists have in them.
***** Yeah right. Better than "Oh No!", "Are You Satisfied?", "Seventeen", "Hermit The Frog" and "Family Jewels"? She used to produce meaningful music frequently - the songs that have meaning now seem to be few and far between.
***** dude, stop commenting on every single thing people say. You're actually so fucking obnoxious. Shut the fuck up. If you think Marina doesn't produce good enough music for you, then leave. Listen to your other stupid little artists. Gosh, you're so annoying.
Lana Del Rey I agree too ... but ... How many lana del rey there is in this world ? and basically you look the same as the popular one obviously... you're too much of a fan...it is nearly freaky ;-)
😔 Florencia, I really hope you feel happy someday soon, and I'm sorry to hear you don't feel happy at the moment. Everybody (and I include myself there) feels sad and alone at some point(s) in their life - some for longer than others, in some cases. Trust me, you're never as sad and as alone as you might think you are... But if there's one thing I know for certain, it's that change in life is a certainty; change in circumstances, the people you know and meet, your own perspective of your world, change of residence, etc. Like Marina sings in the song,"I believe in possibility" - and I BELIEVE happiness is a totally REAL POSSIBILITY for you too. 😊 Stay strong, girl, and keep the faith. x
SallyTheSeahorse this was really sweet of you, thank you :) I believe happiness is upon oursevles and that's why right now, I find it difficult to feel happy because I have a tendency of overthinking things until I feel hopeless instead of just living my life and enjoying all the good things there are in it. I guess it happens to a lot of us, it's like I feel guilty for not being happy when I could but that doesn't change the fact I still fell dissatisfied. I was having a shitty day so it was nice to see this comment! I wish you the best.
same, when i saw her literally everyone around me was crying and hugging each other and marina kept smiling at our group and it was such a magical moment.
The GRAMMYs aren't about popularity, neither are about sales. But why haven't they nominated Marina before? She writes beautiful music, Happy should be definitely nominated this year. It has such a beautiful message, and if you're down and listen to it, it just encourages you that you don't have to be with anyone to be happy, to enjoy life, there's more than to attach yourself to a significant other and I think that something like that should need some kind of recognition.
The Grammy's are clique based. If you make pop music, it has to be Top40 and you have to have had multiple songs in the Top40 to be considered. Other genres aren't nearly as difficult to break into for Grammy nominations. I know Alison Krauss (a country artist) literally has like 20 Grammy's because country isn't nearly as cutthroat as the pop category.
the Grammys are absolutely about popularity! Shape of You by Ed Sheeran won over Praying by Kesha and Million Reasons by Lady Gaga, just because it was a number 1 on the Hot 100 and because it got more radio play.
Beautiful and talented Miss Y is considered not showing adequate love for Gay community. Which is devoid of independent thoughrs...but we're seeing lots of smear campaigns these days aren't we?
I love how her voice is so natural-- none of that autotune correction BS. It just lets you connect to the honest, human emotions entrenched in this song.
When I first heard this song in december of last year, I was on the way to visit my grandma in the hospital who had been in a downward spiral for the past year or so and had just fallen in and broken her hip, causing so many other problems. It was unbelievably frightening and I really feared losing her. Whenever I hear this song now, I think of that moment and I think of her. Thankfully while she still has health problems, she miraculously recovered. This song is just so raw and pure on so many levels and I think everyone can relate to it. Even without that memory being conjured, the lyrics just hit a sweet spot on my soul that touches me like nothing else. I love you so much Marina. You are the light of my life.
This brought me to tears, honest to God, Marina is one of the best artists of all time. In each album, each song, she brings something new and great and utterly unique. There's just so much emotion and story and meaning behind it all and its not like the top 40 lists where everything is meaningless and transparent. It is so much better and Marina you worth more than words.
Right there with you Mary! Another great track from Marina. If you can, check her out live, for performance is amazing, she is super sweet and connected to the crowd - a real gem.
Couldn’t relax Couldn’t sit back And let the sunlight In my lap I sang a hymn To bring me peace And then it came A melody It felt so sweet It felt so strong It made me feel like I belonged And all the sadness inside me Melted away Like I was free I found what I’d been looking for in myself Found a life worth living for someone else Never thought that I could be Happy, happy Don’t go out Much at all I’ve never been The type to call I realise to be happy Maybe I need A little company So now you know You know it all That I’ve been Desperately alone I haven’t found the one for me But I believe in divinity I found what I’d been looking for in myself Found a life worth living for someone else Never thought that I could be Happy, happy I believe in possibility I believe someone’s watching over me And finally I have found a way to be Happy, happy From the concrete to the coast I was looking for a holy ghost Like the land joining the sea Happiness it followed me I believe in possibility I believe someone’s watching over me And finally I have found a way to be Happy, happy
Marina: You'll probably never read this, but if you do, I want you to know how much your music means to me and how it has changed my life. You got me through some really hard times. Every time I was stressed, happy, sad, heartbroken, confused, etc. you had a song for me. I'm not good at picking favorites with music, because music means so much to me, but I can genuinely say you are my favorite artist. Your music has become one of the most meaningful things in my life. I just want to thank you for being my salvation. Please keep making music and never stop. You bring sass, peace, love, happiness, empathy, anger, and everything we all need to feel. You save lives. Marina, you truly are our angel. Thank you dearly.
This year was very hard for me , when i found this song it really helped me. It made me remember that all happiness originates from within. I was very sad lately , i stopped talking to my best friend and people i know. Even my family , i feel utterly alone with no one i can turn to. Last night i saw you Marina in my dream, we talked for hours at a cafe , drinking and drawing some pictures together.We shared stories and then i saw this song and shed a tear or two. So if you see this Marina , know this , i am grateful for putting your heart into your songs. I am forever grateful and i know we would be great friends. Much love to you. And to everyone who see this , you should be comfortable on your own company and dont dwell on sadness. You deserve love , you are love , share love .
This immediately has become my favorite Marina song. I am from the South in the US and was raised with super-conservative views. That means that I've had "homosexuality is WRONG" shoved down my throat for years along with other hate-filled vitriol. I used to fight the feeling that what I was hearing was wrong and that maybe I'd get over it but I never did. Now that I've heard this song, I've finally just accepted that I'm the liberal boogeyman my family hates. I'm so tired of seeing idiots get married and then divorce in less than a year but then gay men and women can't get married, although they've been together for decades and love each other unconditionally. What's sad is that my brother has already been poisoned by my mother's hatred. She didn't use to even care until she started going to church when my older brother was born. She said that it was the best decision she ever made, but all I can see is that it made her hateful towards anyone different from herself. It's like she totally missed the entire point of Christianity, which is love. The Bible teaches to love and forgive, regardless of what they do. Modern evangelical Christianity has been perverted and it's sad.
I completely agree with your last statement! Christians should be more loving. (I am one) Even if you don't agree with LGBTQ people, you should still love them, and accept them for who they are. I don't understand how the hateful christians can call themselves Christians. It completely goes against the basics of Christianity.
Your statement reminds me of a part from an old Troye Sivan video where he said something like "I don't understand how Kim Kardashian getting married for 25 hours doesn't taint the 'sanctity of marriage', but somehow this lovely couples existence does [insert photo of a lesbian couple with their baby]"
I sang this song for a concert with my school district and all the judges cried. Hopefully they understood the meaning of the song. Since I was in Kindergarten I have had terrible social skills and could never keep friends. I felt so alone and went home crying every night thinking there was something wrong with me. Then I found this song and decided to share my story, but things went completely downhill before I could. My parents divorced and neither of them were the same. So for 3 years I curled up in a shell and stayed there. Until I heard this song again, and saw a district concert, so I entered and ended up winning. If something unexpected happens in your life don't hide from the ones you love if anything open up to them. 😌😌😌
omg that was so sad.. i feel sorry for you and im hoping that things are getting better for you now. and oh, i looove your pfp and username!!! hi fellow marina and queen/roger taylor fan :)))
In a way, I don't want Marina to become as famous as Madonna or Michael Jackson or even Ariana Grande, I'm afraid if that happens, We'll loose a part of Marina's true artistic self. I'm afraid the world of media and paparazzi will destroy Marina's desire to make beautiful meaningful music. I'm afraid she might let the world change her for the worst. I don't want that to happen. I want her to stay just the way she is and I don't want to give anybody a chance to hate on her or put her down in any way. I know I'm crazy because Marina deserves to be just as famous as all the other artists, I'm just scared.
Typically what happens is the label becomes more strict with their big artists, because they're getting more attention, so the label kind of turns them in to cookie cutter puppets instead of letting them be true artists. This can cause a personality change from unhappiness, or they grow a large ego because of the attention they get.
100% with you on this one. One part of me says Marina NEEDS to be huge, but the other part is like "omg no I want her for myself". It's crazy how she can go from songs like Primadonna to Happy. Her talent is hugeeee. & if anyone hates on her, well they're just stupid.
like charli XCX her first (well technically second) album was great, then she blew up because of Fancy, and now her second album(third) is just generic pop music
Estou sem palavras, essa música é muito linda, é o tipo de música que a gente sabe que é verdadeira e que não está atrás de sucesso,fama e sim mostrar o sentimento de quem canta. Marina é uma artista completa com certeza
Almost 2 years later...I remember the first time I heard this song, I had just waken up, like everyday, feeling like crap because my ex-boyfriend cheated on me, that left me destroyed. One year ago...on December 2015, I was still suffering but I decided that needed to stop. I decided to rebuild my life, this year, I joined buddhism, I worked really hard and got a job in my career field, I've met new people who are great, I've never felt more confident about myself, I've grown quite a lot, and I've been meeting someone with whom I do see a bright future. Everytime I come back to this song, and wow...my life has changed a lot. Thank you for all the inspiration to go on, Marina...thank you.
I saw Marina in concert recently for her Neon Nature Tour in Austin and when she played this song I just starting tearing up because the fact that she dedicated singing this specific song for her fans at the venue was very tear jerking. I've been a Diamond since the moment I heard her song "Hollywood" on her Family Jewels album but that doesn't entitle me to anything more than other fans. I truly love her as an artist and the whole Diamond fandom, we've got something special that we all share. This song really speaks to a lot of fans, and it has given me strength whenever I am feeling down and I cannot even begin to express how thankful I am to her for filling this gap that I never knew existed within me.
we only have to wait til april. there is no possible way that a mortal human could prepare themselves for this. on the bright side, at least beyonce is prepared. ;) xD
I used to feel this way, so I stopped listening to it. just except you aren't in this place, but when u listen to this song imagine urself finally finding happiness, which you will
Marina is such a beautiful goddess. This song is so touching, I always tear up a little listening to it. As someone who struggles daily with depression I hope that one day I can find what makes me "happy".
when happy came out i was going through one of the deepest crisises i've ever had. i can't say this song instantly healed me. it can't happen like this. but i learned strenght to go further with knowing that someday i'll find a way to be happy. and it worked.
2015 was a very hard year for me, i was battling bullying (I am gay) and low self-esteem, i was always caring about what other people had to say. When I discovered Marina I never heard all her songs and when FROOT I just heard like 2 or 3 songs, and when she announced her tour, I decided it to give it a try because why the hell not, it took her to sing this song live to make me see the message of this song, i cried during the whole entire performance because this song hit me right where it needed to hit me. I just need to find the way to be Happy. Thank you for this masterpiece Marina, it really did help me a lot. Love you ❤️
+Brandon Paredes I too had a similar struggle. In the first half of the year, I was battling my toxic friendship with my (now ex) best friend, the panic associated with getting all of my classes passed in time for my high school graduation, and the depression associated with the death of a former classmate of mine via a car accident (to make matters worse, this happened the day after I graduated). By mid-June, I was an emotional wreck. But days before I left for my long-awaited Japan trip in July, I downloaded the FROOT album to my phone, and well, I've lost count on how many times I've listened to 'Happy' alone. Not only was visiting Japan one of the most wonderful experiences of my life, but the trip and 'Happy' gave me the opportunity to contemplate the first 18 years of my life and whatever the future may have in store for me. It really was something else.
Okay, I'm going to be honest 100%. Sometimes (only sometimes) I say a song brings me to tears as a joke. But I am not kidding when I say that this made me actually shed tears. I had to stop for a bit to take a breath. This is literally so beautiful. Her voice is so real, and she puts every bit of emotion into her performances. I aspire to be like her. She's an incredible human, and I cannot thank her enough for being able to truly make a person feel.
I never typically comment on videos, but this video is absolutely gorgeous. It is a work of art within itself. It portrays so much emotion. The detail put into this song is absolutely incredible. This acoustic version gives you the full picture in its entirety. Her words are passionate, and beautiful. The chords, the harmony, the taps of the drums, the additional instruments used to add details are perfect. The entire video and song is absolutely perfect. Marina is a great example of absolute musical perfection. I have listened to Marina for awhile now and have played the Electra Heart archetype videos over and over again, in different orders, and I have listened to her Family Jewels album as well. I honestly feel like each album is a transformation, an era, a piece of her life she's sharing, and Froot is absolutely beautiful. At first I will admit that I was not too crazy about it, but now I love it so much and I have realized the beauty in each and every song.
from the cosmos, a goddess who named herself “marina” had heard the cries of the human race, and she decided to visit earth to see that humans have been going through their own personal hellholes; marina saw this & decided to become a musician and let herself be stripped of her powers to sing for the people. this song, out of the rest, is one of many, many reasons why there are people who still believe in humanity. they believe that not everyone is human, sometimes they're just angels who were meant to give happiness + spread love into this god forsaken world mankind has lived on. (idk, i've always wanted to say this)
Every time i listen to this song, i think about God. I don't know if Marina is a religous person, buy this song is so conected to the thought of God for me, i cry everytime i hear this song. And as i can see this song has helped a lot of people, because We can relate this song in so many aspects of Our life. Marina your music is so brillant, such a beautiful gift. God bless you, keep inspiring people the way you do.
More like Happy has a blue melody, because it actually is uplifting and empowering lyrics. Blue has an upbeat melody but saddening lyrics. Such a tradeoff. lol
I've been so depressed and suicidal. I simply wanted to die. No one could help me or comfort me. When I listen to this song or watch this video, it brings me happiness, and hope. I can relate to it, and when you sing "I believe someone is watching over me" I start tearing up. It reminds me of two years ago when I was still happy and my grandmother, who was really close to me died. Marina, you give me hope when I need it most. I have also been clean of cutting myself after I heard this song. Whenever I feel like dying, I'll turn to this song. Thank you so much for giving me another chance to live with your music.
@Anne B. Oh my god... I have no recollection of posting this years ago, but I was absolutely in a shit place then - clearly, LOL! Well, I'm finally out as a lesbian after years of struggling with my sexuality, I got on antidepressants and have gotten to attend therapy despite a family that told me to pray it away, I am attending my dream university studying to be a screenwriter and am out of a toxic home, so I'd say things are going a hell of a lot better now! Thanks, Anne.
Honestly, this song is perfect for late night, lonely drives, with the windows open, and an empty road in front of you. Where you're just left with your thoughts and this song replaying in the background. *Maybe it's just me*
I've been in the state of depression for quite sometime and with Marina's music, I've been able to pull through. Her music just gets me and each and every lyrical words written down speak nothing clarity, hope, hate, anger, and love, and that's just how I am. Her music helps me and to see and hear that she's happy, makes me happier than I ever was before. (On a side note: THE QUEEN IS BACK AND SHE IS SLAYING)
crying. it's amazing how such an amazing artist can go unnoticed. Marina is so underrated and i appreciate it. It's almost like our little secret. This may be selfish but I just want to keep her to myself and wrap her up in a blanket and just thank her for all the joy she's given me.
i cant believe its been almost 2 years i still cry over this like i frickin did when it came out??? this is like one of the most beautiful songs on earth and i am still slain
I appreciate this song so much. Really fits that feeling of finally letting go of all the anger and frustration, and realizing you really can be happy. I remember my own point in life where I stopped being so frustrated with all the things about myself and people I couldn't change...
How is it that this song feels like happily dying? After all these upbeat songs about unhappyness this downbeat song about rest and peace feels like home. And a happy, lighthearted, easy, happy death.
Makes me so proud when artists that I enjoy show that they are not just a product of the music industry that relies on autotune to create perfect vocals. Marina is the real deal
I relate a lot with this song. I spent a lot of time trying to fit, thinking that way I would find happiness. Then I came to the conclusion that I really am happy being who I am, not trying to fit, even if it means to be alone.
this song is perfect and makes me cry so much. I have not found happiness, I'm still "Living Dead" but i'm really glad you're finally able to find peace with yourself and with the world. you really deserve it
This is the kind of song you never knew you needed to hear. But when you do it's honestly like magic & I'm sitting in my room crying because this is too beautiful. I never really comment on songs I like but this is something just so touching.
This song resonates with so many people, it's unbelievable. That feeling of finally letting go of all the nonsense and self-inflicted pain, realizing that happiness can be found within ourselves. It's an amazing feeling from an amazing song.
I love how all of Marina's songs has a meaning behind it. Some other artists write a song that is close to being meaningless, the only reason we actually like listening to it is because it has an upbeat song to listen which is like-able, whereas, Marina's songs has a nice tune to it and has a lot of meaning behind it which makes us like it even more. :)
I can proudly say that this song finally expresses my feelings. I finally understood that true happiness isn’t trying to prove that you are worth it to the people who though otherwise. It’s about believing it yourself. Marina, Electra Heart was there for me during the worst period of my life. After all those years, I saw you live in Athens, and when I heard Teen Idle I stared crying so much, felt like I listened to my story once again, but at that moment I was finally relieved. You were there. During the worst period of my life, and here you are now. And I am happy.
Couldn't relax, couldn't sit back And let the sunlight in my lap I sang a hymn to bring me peace And then it came, a melody It felt so sweet, it felt so strong It made me feel like I belonged And all the sadness inside me Melted away like I was free I found what I'd been looking for in myself Found a life worth living for someone else Never thought that I could be, I could be Happy, happy Don't go out much at all I've never been the type to call I realize to be happy Maybe I need a little company So now you know, you know it all That I've been des-desperately alone I haven't found the one for me But I believe in divinity I found what I'd been looking for in myself Found a life worth living for someone else Never thought that I could be, I could be Happy, happy I believe in possibility I believe someone's watching over me And finally I have found a way to be Happy, happy From the concrete to the coast I was looking for a holy ghost Like the land joining the sea Happiness, it followed me I believe in possibility I believe someone's watching over me And finally I have found a way to be Happy, happy, happy
1) Being notified of Marina's new video 2) Freaking out cause I've been waiting for it 3) Just about to cry because it's so beautiful, and emotional, and absolutely P.E.R.F.E.C.T just like you, Marina 4) Being convinced once and for all that there's still hope.
So.... This is it. I have literally listened this song when I was NOT happy at all. Now when I have found someone I love, we sing this song together, because we are Happy together.
There are so many artists out there that sing about the most asinine bull shit and the there's Marina who sings about things that are actually important like finding true happiness in your life, I have so much respect for this woman.
this song first came out in my last year of middle school. i’d known nothing in my life but illness and loneliness and exhaustion but i marveled at how beautifully and clearly she could express to me an emotion i’d never truly felt - this peace deep in your soul, undertoned with longing and pain, but ultimately leading you to a place of healing and happiness. i came to associate this song with a traumatic experience and couldn’t listen to it for years. i come back to it tonight and remember the lyrics as clearly as i did five years ago. now i’ve started college. i’ve survived hardship and sickness and deep depression that i couldn’t have possibly fathomed five years ago. i found true love, true happiness, and then felt the raw and all-consuming heartbreak of losing a soulmate. but as i listen to this song again for the first time in years with a completely different perspective, one that understands firsthand the emotion marina is singing about, i know this for sure: i may not be happy now, but i have been truly happy before, and i will again. like the land joining the sea, happiness will follow me. thank you, marina.
This n ruin are my top faves helped me thru the low days.Thank you marina.The froot days remind me if me my sister watching you in manc we couldn't stay until the end we had make our own way home.love ya
I dont know how to say this, but you're such an inspiration. All of your songs are amazing!. You deserve everything in this world and i cant mention in words how much i love you. Thank you so much for making all your diamonds HAPPY!
I've been struggling with addiction since I was 23. I'm now 29 and I haven't been cured, but I first heard this song when I was 25. I never understood reading other addicts on here commenting about how a song saved their lives, but I do now. I haven't been cured and I still struggle with my life every day but I know hands down that this song made me feel less alone. I dont think a song can save your life but I know this one has kept me from total loneliness and despair. Marina is my all time favorite artist and I owe her the world for making such a relatable song, This track is about hope and finding reason for keeping our strength and joy through times when we didnt see the light.
Marina is literally one of the most talented artists in the industry, she wrote her entire album, for me I connect with her songs and create emotion. She is so unique and I JUST LOVE HER!!!
This song has done more for my mental health than people who claimed to care about me. Thank you Marina ! I love you so much ! Keep making art, whatever you do i will always support you. You saved my life !

I hope all of us find a way to be happy.....✌✌
Segah Zengin truly thank u
That is so sweet. Thank you 💕 I wish the same for youu
Marina, I'm not exaggerating but this song feels like it is about me and ever since I heard it, I have felt such hope and happiness that I didn't know I could feel. I no longer want to die for the first time since something bad happened aged 12 and I'm now 25, I've tried to commit suicide a lot, in September I really thought I was gonna jump off a bridge to finally finally die, but I am never going to do it again. This song gave me a new outlook, this song gave me the hope I needed to go on, I love you so much. Diamond since I first heard your perfect voice many years ago. Diamond forever
It's never too late to change you're future. Thank you for the kind words
you only live once. i'am happy that this song made you happier and gave you a new outlook to life. it's never nice to read people in crises and with that kind of feeling. i'am really happy for you that she gave you hope. sorry for my english i'am portugues living in england.

MARINA YOU SAVED ME FROM SUICIDE. I LOVE YOU.
Stay strong, my friend. Life is beautiful, and so are you ☺
^ we need more people like you in the world.
***** This was a beautiful comment that you ruined. Please, stop.
***** Actually, why not? Music in general can make moods, bring out emotions etc.
***** Is not just "someone singing" something, is the message implicit in the song, you'll never know how a song can reach the very core of a person and change it
This is a truly epic moment in pop history.
Will this sell like Michael Jackson's Thriller? No.
Is this one of the most beautiful pieces of music and performances in history? ABSOLUTELY.
I can't even describe how much this song explains life itself...
Geraldo Zapola Absolutely. Also, I have NEVER seen a video with such a high like to dislike ratio. Currently 4,514 to 6!!! That's almost 99.99%!!
I am so agree with you.
Stop reaching. It's a nice song but calm yourself down please.
***** too bad your grammar sucks.
Honestly I love marina's fandom, I love the comment section, I love her music, I love marina, I love everything about her. Her fandom is full of people who love her music. The comment section is empty of haters and people that want to make fun of other people. Her music Is full of emotions and lovely messages, sometimes happy, sometimes Sad, sometimes full of hope but always With a meaning. And her voice has something that gives her songs a very beautiful sound. It's perfect.
Some of us a bit twisted too but in the end we're all hella cool
cesar sanchez that is so true!! but i love tøp too but the fandom is so butt hurt by a lot and very exclusive
Us diamonds do be elite tho 😌
@@justcameron4765 Fr, we're so dedicated and all of us love Marina for the same reason I believe. Might not be the biggest fandom but certainly one of the best
The only thing I dislike is the part of the fandom who won't stop complaining about Love + Fear or those who basically make fun of Marina for not being famous enough ? You always have a few bad apples I guess
@@Vic-sw1td i agree!! the majority of interactions i’ve had with this fandom has been awesome, everyone’s so sweet. but yeah, like most things someone has to come and make things a little unpleasant. but like besides them, i feel like we’re a big family you know? obviously marina is such an amazing artist so this fandom is made up of people with great taste, and i love them so much :)
When 'Froot' came out, I found out my ex boyfriend was dating another girl. I remember when I listened to 'Happy' and I cried alot. Marina helped me to get through from the darkest days of my life, getting sick and suffering from an eating disorder, she may don't know how much she is helping me with her music, I relate to this song and mostly, because I know how much a song can heal you, stay strong guys.
That's beautiful, thank you too all the artists out there, I know I've had my fair share of problems that were helped or lessened by the power these amazing artists have in them.
❤️❤️❤️
💜
Tania Luna i know its been 3 years but I really hope you found your happiness.
Same except I realized mine had a wife ☠️💀😭
2 years later, I can finally listen to Marina and Lana WITHOUT crying, LEGIT HAPPY.
congrats (:
Zohaib Rehman in next 😿
Zohaib Rehman Did she die?
HopeOrDespair? No
How are you doing 2 years on?
dear diamonds, if you ever feel alone, or sad, or just down right depressed, just know that we are here to help you. diamonds stick together
thank you 💕
this fandom is truly special
Thank You
Thanks 😊
I really need your help I’m so depressed everyday
Petition to make it illegal to be this talented please
***** Yeah right. Better than "Oh No!", "Are You Satisfied?", "Seventeen", "Hermit The Frog" and "Family Jewels"? She used to produce meaningful music frequently - the songs that have meaning now seem to be few and far between.
***** dude, stop commenting on every single thing people say. You're actually so fucking obnoxious. Shut the fuck up. If you think Marina doesn't produce good enough music for you, then leave. Listen to your other stupid little artists. Gosh, you're so annoying.
I agree
Lana Del Rey
I agree too ... but ... How many lana del rey there is in this world ? and basically you look the same as the popular one obviously... you're too much of a fan...it is nearly freaky ;-)
If that happens, we would have crap. Please don't allow it!
"i believe someone's watching over me" that part gives me so much chills
I start to cry EVERY fcking time in this moment cuz' I used to have someone who watched over me and now I'm not. This phrase hurts me the most :(
"and all the sadness inside me melted away like i was happy" cause of this song.
*free
She gives me hope with this song that I'd feel happy someday
😔 Florencia, I really hope you feel happy someday soon, and I'm sorry to hear you don't feel happy at the moment. Everybody (and I include myself there) feels sad and alone at some point(s) in their life - some for longer than others, in some cases. Trust me, you're never as sad and as alone as you might think you are... But if there's one thing I know for certain, it's that change in life is a certainty; change in circumstances, the people you know and meet, your own perspective of your world, change of residence, etc. Like Marina sings in the song,"I believe in possibility" - and I BELIEVE happiness is a totally REAL POSSIBILITY for you too. 😊 Stay strong, girl, and keep the faith. x
SallyTheSeahorse this was really sweet of you, thank you :) I believe happiness is upon oursevles and that's why right now, I find it difficult to feel happy because I have a tendency of overthinking things until I feel hopeless instead of just living my life and enjoying all the good things there are in it. I guess it happens to a lot of us, it's like I feel guilty for not being happy when I could but that doesn't change the fact I still fell dissatisfied. I was having a shitty day so it was nice to see this comment! I wish you the best.
SallyTheSeahorse
UPDATE: I am happy and so will you.
María Florencia Ohww I'm so happy to know this 💕
I'm crying on the floor and wondering about how sad and beautiful this song and Marina is
Esteban Pascuas I feel you 💔
Esteban Pascuas same. 😳
Esteban Pascuas actually it’s very happy :)
I was 17 when this came out. I'm 25 now. It hits different.
When she sang this at my concert so many people were crying, including me
same, when i saw her literally everyone around me was crying and hugging each other and marina kept smiling at our group and it was such a magical moment.
aww :( wow
Literally same. Me and my best friend were just hugging and crying it was such a beautiful experience.
The GRAMMYs aren't about popularity, neither are about sales. But why haven't they nominated Marina before? She writes beautiful music, Happy should be definitely nominated this year. It has such a beautiful message, and if you're down and listen to it, it just encourages you that you don't have to be with anyone to be happy, to enjoy life, there's more than to attach yourself to a significant other and I think that something like that should need some kind of recognition.
The Grammy's are clique based. If you make pop music, it has to be Top40 and you have to have had multiple songs in the Top40 to be considered. Other genres aren't nearly as difficult to break into for Grammy nominations. I know Alison Krauss (a country artist) literally has like 20 Grammy's because country isn't nearly as cutthroat as the pop category.
the Grammys are absolutely about popularity! Shape of You by Ed Sheeran won over Praying by Kesha and Million Reasons by Lady Gaga, just because it was a number 1 on the Hot 100 and because it got more radio play.
Beautiful and talented Miss Y is considered not showing adequate love for Gay community. Which is devoid of independent thoughrs...but we're seeing lots of smear campaigns these days aren't we?
they are about popularity
Just take a look at Lana Del Rey and Billie Eilish and you will know what Grammy is all about pal
I love how her voice is so natural-- none of that autotune correction BS. It just lets you connect to the honest, human emotions entrenched in this song.
Agree. 😊
+rockmonst3r Well I mean it's live lol
I love how she makes pop music but doesn't use that voice correction AHHH
she's one of the artists who sound better live
Ela tem mesmo uma voz maravilhosa, incrível!! Adoro essa música e a Marina é demais!!
You think Blue is gonna be sad but it's a happy song. You think happy is gonna be a happy song but it's a sad song.
MEEEEE RN
Malachi Vasquez so true
Malachi Vasquez Well actually if you listen to the lyrics, Happy is happy and Blue is sad lol
SO-LI-TAIRE IKR? Blue makes me feel sad and desperate.
***** And Happy gives me strength!
When I first heard this song in december of last year, I was on the way to visit my grandma in the hospital who had been in a downward spiral for the past year or so and had just fallen in and broken her hip, causing so many other problems. It was unbelievably frightening and I really feared losing her. Whenever I hear this song now, I think of that moment and I think of her. Thankfully while she still has health problems, she miraculously recovered. This song is just so raw and pure on so many levels and I think everyone can relate to it. Even without that memory being conjured, the lyrics just hit a sweet spot on my soul that touches me like nothing else. I love you so much Marina. You are the light of my life.
Awee im sorry about your grandmother, Im glad she is better
Kay
You were expecting support weren't you 😂😂😂
I love her articulation, and how thick she tongues every syllable :) Its beautiful
This brought me to tears, honest to God, Marina is one of the best artists of all time. In each album, each song, she brings something new and great and utterly unique. There's just so much emotion and story and meaning behind it all and its not like the top 40 lists where everything is meaningless and transparent. It is so much better and Marina you worth more than words.
So true..very special
Right there with you Mary! Another great track from Marina. If you can, check her out live, for performance is amazing, she is super sweet and connected to the crowd - a real gem.
I feel so happy for her when I listen to this. She's such a strong woman, I love her a lot.
Wowzers Julianadowns, you are ONE BUSY PERSON, I've never heard of ANY of the endless videos you liked!
Couldn’t relax
Couldn’t sit back
And let the sunlight
In my lap
I sang a hymn
To bring me peace
And then it came
A melody
It felt so sweet
It felt so strong
It made me feel like
I belonged
And all the sadness inside me
Melted away
Like I was free
I found what I’d been looking for in myself
Found a life worth living for someone else
Never thought that I could be
Happy, happy
Don’t go out
Much at all
I’ve never been
The type to call
I realise to be happy
Maybe I need
A little company
So now you know
You know it all
That I’ve been
Desperately alone
I haven’t found the one for me
But I believe in divinity
I found what I’d been looking for in myself
Found a life worth living for someone else
Never thought that I could be
Happy, happy
I believe in possibility
I believe someone’s watching over me
And finally I have found a way to be
Happy, happy
From the concrete to the coast
I was looking for a holy ghost
Like the land joining the sea
Happiness it followed me
I believe in possibility
I believe someone’s watching over me
And finally I have found a way to be
Happy, happy
Gabriel Babiski ty
Thanks ❤
Thanks
Marina: You'll probably never read this, but if you do, I want you to know how much your music means to me and how it has changed my life. You got me through some really hard times. Every time I was stressed, happy, sad, heartbroken, confused, etc. you had a song for me. I'm not good at picking favorites with music, because music means so much to me, but I can genuinely say you are my favorite artist. Your music has become one of the most meaningful things in my life. I just want to thank you for being my salvation. Please keep making music and never stop. You bring sass, peace, love, happiness, empathy, anger, and everything we all need to feel. You save lives. Marina, you truly are our angel. Thank you dearly.
This year was very hard for me , when i found this song it really helped me. It made me remember that all happiness originates from within.
I was very sad lately , i stopped talking to my best friend and people i know. Even my family , i feel utterly alone with no one i can turn to. Last night i saw you Marina in my dream, we talked for hours at a cafe , drinking and drawing some pictures together.We shared stories and then i saw this song and shed a tear or two.
So if you see this Marina , know this , i am grateful for putting your heart into your songs. I am forever grateful and i know we would be great friends. Much love to you.
And to everyone who see this , you should be comfortable on your own company and dont dwell on sadness. You deserve love , you are love , share love .
You're never alone. Diamonds stick together 😊
+Cai Steff Thank you darling
+Cai Steff so much respect
This comment is so beautiful ♡
Wow...
Please tell me I'm the only one who's reminded of Aphrodite/Venus when I look at her. She's just simply beautiful.
nope not the only one
Coincidentally, she's half Greek!
i was gonna like but the i realised...
And her sign is Libra! Venus is her planet practically. Just a coincidence?
she's a pure goddess
This immediately has become my favorite Marina song. I am from the South in the US and was raised with super-conservative views. That means that I've had "homosexuality is WRONG" shoved down my throat for years along with other hate-filled vitriol. I used to fight the feeling that what I was hearing was wrong and that maybe I'd get over it but I never did. Now that I've heard this song, I've finally just accepted that I'm the liberal boogeyman my family hates. I'm so tired of seeing idiots get married and then divorce in less than a year but then gay men and women can't get married, although they've been together for decades and love each other unconditionally.
What's sad is that my brother has already been poisoned by my mother's hatred. She didn't use to even care until she started going to church when my older brother was born. She said that it was the best decision she ever made, but all I can see is that it made her hateful towards anyone different from herself. It's like she totally missed the entire point of Christianity, which is love. The Bible teaches to love and forgive, regardless of what they do. Modern evangelical Christianity has been perverted and it's sad.
I completely agree with your last statement! Christians should be more loving. (I am one) Even if you don't agree with LGBTQ people, you should still love them, and accept them for who they are. I don't understand how the hateful christians can call themselves Christians. It completely goes against the basics of Christianity.
Your statement reminds me of a part from an old Troye Sivan video where he said something like "I don't understand how Kim Kardashian getting married for 25 hours doesn't taint the 'sanctity of marriage', but somehow this lovely couples existence does [insert photo of a lesbian couple with their baby]"
Eloquently put and well said :)
I would like to commend this touching comment. The amount of hatred and bias in this world is unacceptable. Stay strong.
YOU ARE COMPLETELY RIGHT.
there's so many teardrops on my phone
I feel you
Tears are on my glasses' lenses.
i got teardrops on my dick :|
I sang this song for a concert with my school district and all the judges cried. Hopefully they understood the meaning of the song.
Since I was in Kindergarten I have had terrible social skills and could never keep friends. I felt so alone and went home crying every night thinking there was something wrong with me. Then I found this song and decided to share my story, but things went completely downhill before I could. My parents divorced and neither of them were the same. So for 3 years I curled up in a shell and stayed there. Until I heard this song again, and saw a district concert, so I entered and ended up winning.
If something unexpected happens in your life don't hide from the ones you love if anything open up to them. 😌😌😌
omg that was so sad.. i feel sorry for you and im hoping that things are getting better for you now. and oh, i looove your pfp and username!!! hi fellow marina and queen/roger taylor fan :)))
In a way, I don't want Marina to become as famous as Madonna or Michael Jackson or even Ariana Grande, I'm afraid if that happens, We'll loose a part of Marina's true artistic self. I'm afraid the world of media and paparazzi will destroy Marina's desire to make beautiful meaningful music. I'm afraid she might let the world change her for the worst. I don't want that to happen. I want her to stay just the way she is and I don't want to give anybody a chance to hate on her or put her down in any way. I know I'm crazy because Marina deserves to be just as famous as all the other artists, I'm just scared.
Typically what happens is the label becomes more strict with their big artists, because they're getting more attention, so the label kind of turns them in to cookie cutter puppets instead of letting them be true artists. This can cause a personality change from unhappiness, or they grow a large ego because of the attention they get.
I feel you, bro.
100% with you on this one. One part of me says Marina NEEDS to be huge, but the other part is like "omg no I want her for myself". It's crazy how she can go from songs like Primadonna to Happy. Her talent is hugeeee. & if anyone hates on her, well they're just stupid.
like charli XCX her first (well technically second) album was great, then she blew up because of Fancy, and now her second album(third) is just generic pop music
Alessa Jade ikr i wanna cry i love charli so much and its frustrating
Estou sem palavras, essa música é muito linda, é o tipo de música que a gente sabe que é verdadeira e que não está atrás de sucesso,fama e sim mostrar o sentimento de quem canta. Marina é uma artista completa com certeza
This song is the most beautiful thing that has ever happened to me. I'm so happy for you Marina.
I'm not ashamed that I'm crying
+VIOLET MARTINEZ They call you crybaby, but you don't ~ care ;)
+roratruth omg hahahahaha
+roratruth cute
Love how she changed her name because of melanie
Almost 2 years later...I remember the first time I heard this song, I had just waken up, like everyday, feeling like crap because my ex-boyfriend cheated on me, that left me destroyed. One year ago...on December 2015, I was still suffering but I decided that needed to stop. I decided to rebuild my life, this year, I joined buddhism, I worked really hard and got a job in my career field, I've met new people who are great, I've never felt more confident about myself, I've grown quite a lot, and I've been meeting someone with whom I do see a bright future. Everytime I come back to this song, and wow...my life has changed a lot. Thank you for all the inspiration to go on, Marina...thank you.
this song makes me feel so emotional, its such a powerful yet soft song.
I saw Marina in concert recently for her Neon Nature Tour in Austin and when she played this song I just starting tearing up because the fact that she dedicated singing this specific song for her fans at the venue was very tear jerking. I've been a Diamond since the moment I heard her song "Hollywood" on her Family Jewels album but that doesn't entitle me to anything more than other fans. I truly love her as an artist and the whole Diamond fandom, we've got something special that we all share. This song really speaks to a lot of fans, and it has given me strength whenever I am feeling down and I cannot even begin to express how thankful I am to her for filling this gap that I never knew existed within me.
Definitely one of my favourites she's done 💖
same
I'm so glad for my muse. She finally found the happiness she was looking for. Someday surely, marina, I will be happy too...
this is so beautiful, i'm beyond excited to hear her new album.
we only have to wait til april. there is no possible way that a mortal human could prepare themselves for this. on the bright side, at least beyonce is prepared. ;) xD
kermuh demendis i don't know if i can wait that long, but i don't know i've waited probably 3 years now, how much more can a few months do? :)
EmmeElizabethB im not marina
Marina Diamandis lol I should remember to check for these people
it was 3:00 am where I liv when i posted this so.....
never never never stop making music....YOU HEAR ME MARINA??!?! Never stop.
tbh this song just makes me sad since im not happy but i continue to listen because i love it so much 💔
same..
sister daniel stole my editing tips I think that's some kind of happiness
I used to feel this way, so I stopped listening to it. just except you aren't in this place, but when u listen to this song imagine urself finally finding happiness, which you will
a stay and a marina stan omg
Marina is such a beautiful goddess. This song is so touching, I always tear up a little listening to it. As someone who struggles daily with depression I hope that one day I can find what makes me "happy".
Don't worry, just stay away from the light and you'll find your own
Perfection in every note. Every expression. Every feeling. Happiness is when you have this kind of song in the world.
when happy came out i was going through one of the deepest crisises i've ever had. i can't say this song instantly healed me. it can't happen like this. but i learned strenght to go further with knowing that someday i'll find a way to be happy.
and it worked.
2015 was a very hard year for me, i was battling bullying (I am gay) and low self-esteem, i was always caring about what other people had to say. When I discovered Marina I never heard all her songs and when FROOT I just heard like 2 or 3 songs, and when she announced her tour, I decided it to give it a try because why the hell not, it took her to sing this song live to make me see the message of this song, i cried during the whole entire performance because this song hit me right where it needed to hit me. I just need to find the way to be Happy. Thank you for this masterpiece Marina, it really did help me a lot.
Love you ❤️
Welcome new diamond
+Brandon Paredes I too had a similar struggle. In the first half of the year, I was battling my toxic friendship with my (now ex) best friend, the panic associated with getting all of my classes passed in time for my high school graduation, and the depression associated with the death of a former classmate of mine via a car accident (to make matters worse, this happened the day after I graduated). By mid-June, I was an emotional wreck. But days before I left for my long-awaited Japan trip in July, I downloaded the FROOT album to my phone, and well, I've lost count on how many times I've listened to 'Happy' alone. Not only was visiting Japan one of the most wonderful experiences of my life, but the trip and 'Happy' gave me the opportunity to contemplate the first 18 years of my life and whatever the future may have in store for me. It really was something else.
just know... there's nothing wrong you.. stay strong and stay gay💪💪💪💙💚💛💜💘
"Stay strong and stay gay" quote of the day
+RedEmbers22 yup 😂😂😂
Okay, I'm going to be honest 100%. Sometimes (only sometimes) I say a song brings me to tears as a joke. But I am not kidding when I say that this made me actually shed tears. I had to stop for a bit to take a breath. This is literally so beautiful. Her voice is so real, and she puts every bit of emotion into her performances. I aspire to be like her. She's an incredible human, and I cannot thank her enough for being able to truly make a person feel.
3 years ago, this song helped me to leave my toxic life and thanks to that, I found what I have been looking for :)
I never typically comment on videos, but this video is absolutely gorgeous. It is a work of art within itself. It portrays so much emotion. The detail put into this song is absolutely incredible. This acoustic version gives you the full picture in its entirety. Her words are passionate, and beautiful. The chords, the harmony, the taps of the drums, the additional instruments used to add details are perfect. The entire video and song is absolutely perfect. Marina is a great example of absolute musical perfection. I have listened to Marina for awhile now and have played the Electra Heart archetype videos over and over again, in different orders, and I have listened to her Family Jewels album as well. I honestly feel like each album is a transformation, an era, a piece of her life she's sharing, and Froot is absolutely beautiful. At first I will admit that I was not too crazy about it, but now I love it so much and I have realized the beauty in each and every song.
Marina tends to have that effect on people
This sounds like a great TV season/series finale song.
from the cosmos, a goddess who named herself “marina” had heard the cries of the human race, and she decided to visit earth to see that humans have been going through their own personal hellholes; marina saw this & decided to become a musician and let herself be stripped of her powers to sing for the people. this song, out of the rest, is one of many, many reasons why there are people who still believe in humanity.
they believe that not everyone is human, sometimes they're just angels who were meant to give happiness + spread love into this god forsaken world mankind has lived on.
(idk, i've always wanted to say this)
the piano chords are so beautiful in this song
i have a feeling like this is her deepest song with Fear and loathing, Buy the stars and Numb...
I just heard her first time 2 years ago & I just love her voice & lyrics - hits home with me - thanks Marina- your awesome & your band is great !!!
Every time i listen to this song, i think about God. I don't know if Marina is a religous person, buy this song is so conected to the thought of God for me, i cry everytime i hear this song. And as i can see this song has helped a lot of people, because We can relate this song in so many aspects of Our life. Marina your music is so brillant, such a beautiful gift. God bless you, keep inspiring people the way you do.
i think this song is in fact about finding peace through religion
Blue = Happy song
Happy = Blue song
Diana, A Aventureira 😂 True
More like Happy has a blue melody, because it actually is uplifting and empowering lyrics. Blue has an upbeat melody but saddening lyrics. Such a tradeoff. lol
league of legends and marina? weird x)
BERRO DIANA A AVENTUREIRA KAKAKAKAKAKAKAKA
MIND BLOWN
When I listen to this song, I cry without knowing why. Oh shit that rhymed....
Nanette Kegulian 😂😂😂
I've been so depressed and suicidal. I simply wanted to die. No one could help me or comfort me. When I listen to this song or watch this video, it brings me happiness, and hope. I can relate to it, and when you sing "I believe someone is watching over me" I start tearing up. It reminds me of two years ago when I was still happy and my grandmother, who was really close to me died. Marina, you give me hope when I need it most. I have also been clean of cutting myself after I heard this song. Whenever I feel like dying, I'll turn to this song. Thank you so much for giving me another chance to live with your music.
@Anne B. Oh my god... I have no recollection of posting this years ago, but I was absolutely in a shit place then - clearly, LOL! Well, I'm finally out as a lesbian after years of struggling with my sexuality, I got on antidepressants and have gotten to attend therapy despite a family that told me to pray it away, I am attending my dream university studying to be a screenwriter and am out of a toxic home, so I'd say things are going a hell of a lot better now! Thanks, Anne.
@@alex-ex2id Glad to hear this 💛
Honestly, this song is perfect for late night, lonely drives, with the windows open, and an empty road in front of you. Where you're just left with your thoughts and this song replaying in the background.
*Maybe it's just me*
wait how tf did I just bold that. Oh well.
FROOT ERA was her best
the fact she thought she never could be happy makes me sad
But she IS happy now, and she proves to herself that she could be, so there's no need to be sad. :)
I've been in the state of depression for quite sometime and with Marina's music, I've been able to pull through. Her music just gets me and each and every lyrical words written down speak nothing clarity, hope, hate, anger, and love, and that's just how I am. Her music helps me and to see and hear that she's happy, makes me happier than I ever was before. (On a side note: THE QUEEN IS BACK AND SHE IS SLAYING)
This song is a tidal wave of emotion and I'm completely caught up in it
Dear God, I could watch this woman sing forever and I'd never get tired of her voice... or just her.
I can't even sing along without sobbing, but in a good way?? This song is just so honest I can't help it
Whenever im at my low points, i would always listen to this which inspires me to be happy like her ❤
crying. it's amazing how such an amazing artist can go unnoticed. Marina is so underrated and i appreciate it. It's almost like our little secret. This may be selfish but I just want to keep her to myself and wrap her up in a blanket and just thank her for all the joy she's given me.
i cant believe its been almost 2 years i still cry over this like i frickin did when it came out??? this is like one of the most beautiful songs on earth and i am still slain
honestly i saw her sing this live and it was an emotional experience
I appreciate this song so much.
Really fits that feeling of finally letting go of all the anger and frustration, and realizing you really can be happy. I remember my own point in life where I stopped being so frustrated with all the things about myself and people I couldn't change...
This songs hits me in the feels real hard.
How is it that this song feels like happily dying?
After all these upbeat songs about unhappyness this downbeat song about rest and peace feels like home. And a happy, lighthearted, easy, happy death.
Makes me so proud when artists that I enjoy show that they are not just a product of the music industry that relies on autotune to create perfect vocals. Marina is the real deal
After a life of depression, abuse, and chronic pain... being able to sing this song and FEEL it as truth, it the biggest gift I've ever got.
How the hell do people even dislike this video
This is pure perfection
I relate a lot with this song. I spent a lot of time trying to fit, thinking that way I would find happiness. Then I came to the conclusion that I really am happy being who I am, not trying to fit, even if it means to be alone.
this song is perfect and makes me cry so much.
I have not found happiness, I'm still "Living Dead" but i'm really glad you're finally able to find peace with yourself and with the world. you really deserve it
I remember watching this with my grandmother she loved the song. Now she’s watching over me 🤍🥲
This is the kind of song you never knew you needed to hear. But when you do it's honestly like magic & I'm sitting in my room crying because this is too beautiful. I never really comment on songs I like but this is something just so touching.
This song resonates with so many people, it's unbelievable. That feeling of finally letting go of all the nonsense and self-inflicted pain, realizing that happiness can be found within ourselves. It's an amazing feeling from an amazing song.
I love how all of Marina's songs has a meaning behind it. Some other artists write a song that is close to being meaningless, the only reason we actually like listening to it is because it has an upbeat song to listen which is like-able, whereas, Marina's songs has a nice tune to it and has a lot of meaning behind it which makes us like it even more. :)
I can proudly say that this song finally expresses my feelings. I finally understood that true happiness isn’t trying to prove that you are worth it to the people who though otherwise. It’s about believing it yourself. Marina, Electra Heart was there for me during the worst period of my life. After all those years, I saw you live in Athens, and when I heard Teen Idle I stared crying so much, felt like I listened to my story once again, but at that moment I was finally relieved. You were there. During the worst period of my life, and here you are now. And I am happy.
She's freaking gorgeous and this whole video is beautiful wow. I'm so happy for her
She played this music on piano on HMV yesterday and I'm in love with this woman, no more words...
Couldn't relax, couldn't sit back
And let the sunlight in my lap
I sang a hymn to bring me peace
And then it came, a melody
It felt so sweet, it felt so strong
It made me feel like I belonged
And all the sadness inside me
Melted away like I was free
I found what I'd been looking for in myself
Found a life worth living for someone else
Never thought that I could be, I could be
Happy, happy
Don't go out much at all
I've never been the type to call
I realize to be happy
Maybe I need a little company
So now you know, you know it all
That I've been des-desperately alone
I haven't found the one for me
But I believe in divinity
I found what I'd been looking for in myself
Found a life worth living for someone else
Never thought that I could be, I could be
Happy, happy
I believe in possibility
I believe someone's watching over me
And finally I have found a way to be
Happy, happy
From the concrete to the coast
I was looking for a holy ghost
Like the land joining the sea
Happiness, it followed me
I believe in possibility
I believe someone's watching over me
And finally I have found a way to be
Happy, happy, happy
1) Being notified of Marina's new video
2) Freaking out cause I've been waiting for it
3) Just about to cry because it's so beautiful, and emotional, and absolutely P.E.R.F.E.C.T just like you, Marina
4) Being convinced once and for all that there's still hope.
So.... This is it.
I have literally listened this song when I was NOT happy at all.
Now when I have found someone I love, we sing this song together, because we are Happy together.
There are so many artists out there that sing about the most asinine bull shit and the there's Marina who sings about things that are actually important like finding true happiness in your life, I have so much respect for this woman.
this song first came out in my last year of middle school. i’d known nothing in my life but illness and loneliness and exhaustion but i marveled at how beautifully and clearly she could express to me an emotion i’d never truly felt - this peace deep in your soul, undertoned with longing and pain, but ultimately leading you to a place of healing and happiness. i came to associate this song with a traumatic experience and couldn’t listen to it for years.
i come back to it tonight and remember the lyrics as clearly as i did five years ago. now i’ve started college. i’ve survived hardship and sickness and deep depression that i couldn’t have possibly fathomed five years ago. i found true love, true happiness, and then felt the raw and all-consuming heartbreak of losing a soulmate. but as i listen to this song again for the first time in years with a completely different perspective, one that understands firsthand the emotion marina is singing about, i know this for sure: i may not be happy now, but i have been truly happy before, and i will again. like the land joining the sea, happiness will follow me.
thank you, marina.

I dont know how to say this, but you're such an inspiration. All of your songs are amazing!. You deserve everything in this world and i cant mention in words how much i love you. Thank you so much for making all your diamonds HAPPY!
I've been struggling with addiction since I was 23. I'm now 29 and I haven't been cured, but I first heard this song when I was 25. I never understood reading other addicts on here commenting about how a song saved their lives, but I do now. I haven't been cured and I still struggle with my life every day but I know hands down that this song made me feel less alone. I dont think a song can save your life but I know this one has kept me from total loneliness and despair. Marina is my all time favorite artist and I owe her the world for making such a relatable song, This track is about hope and finding reason for keeping our strength and joy through times when we didnt see the light.
That background is a representation of what is truly around us
we're just interprets through our minds
I'm actually convinced she's a goddess
Marina is literally one of the most talented artists in the industry, she wrote her entire album, for me I connect with her songs and create emotion. She is so unique and I JUST LOVE HER!!!
This song has done more for my mental health than people who claimed to care about me.
Thank you Marina ! I love you so much !
Keep making art, whatever you do i will always support you. You saved my life !
This is probably the most beautiful thing i've ever heard in my life. This song has such a big meaning for me already.
