Album: Marina and the Diamonds - 'Electra Heart' - Page 871

I think releasing HTBAH as a third single is a good choice, this way she can extend the era. (and we'll see more of the homewrecker archetype)
And release the last singles next year 'round spring.

REALiTi

How To Be A Heartbreaker being the second single in US and third single everywhere else is perfect!

For those worrying about Power & Control's UK release, the song has been pushed back to the 22nd of July. She's back in the country during release week so she'll be able to promote on T.V. and radio. The song will also reach Radio 1's A-list on release week, so it has a fighting chance of going top 20 now. Lastly, she'll be on Radio 1 with Huw Stevens at 10pm on Monday. Not to forget T4 On The Beach is on tommorow..

I sound so demanding with promotion for Marina since I want her to do heavy promotion both in US and then UK again just because I know she could smash with the right promotion. Extremely glad she'll be promoting again in the UK on Power & Control's release, the song has a chance at top 40 now.

UK iTunes
~
Primadonna #108 + #850
I'm Not A Robot #388
Power & Contorl #615

Electra Heart #156 + #380
The Family Jewels #487

Ready for that promo boost.

Primadonna is staying pretty steadily in the 500's (occasionally dipping into the 600s)... She needs something to get it out of that realm or it will just start falling eventually.

Jimmy Kimmel can not come soon enough!

Am I the only one who thinks Eletra Heart is sort of underperforming in the UK? TFJ didn't sell tons of copies, but it remained relatively stable throughout the weeks... however, EH keeps going down (though it went up to #69 last week), while TFJ had already returned to the top 40 by the 8th week.

Perhaps there's been a bit of a long time gap between Primadonna and Power and Control and EH will soon climb up the charts again, but I'm sort of scared that it might not fare well on the charts, which would be a real pity as Marina has really poured her heart into this album.

I don't think this has been posted, if not, NEW PICTURE PEOPLE !
Obviously Teen Idle no?

Giacobbe

I hope she does a real music video for HTBAHB not just her walking around. I want a storyline, maybe some choreo

Yourfavefan

I am scared jimmy kimmel won't be enough though.. She needs something bigger

That's because in it's 8th week, I Am Not A Robot had been released. Wait until Power & Control is released before thinking the album is "under performing" - Electra Heart will most likely re-enter the top 40 and shift a few more copies whilst Power & Control is charting. I wouldn't write it off just yet

EVOL

I just heard Primadonna on German radio! I freaked out when it came on. How is it doing in America?

It's been in that vicinity forever!

I need it to break the top 500 already!

What are people thinking of for the video for HTBAH?

I really want a video with all four archytypes. You could have the 50s Housewife, The Homewrecker, The 60s Beauty Queen and the 90s Teen Idle all acting out lines from the song and demonstrating how to break hearts in a really camp over the top colourful video. You could have:

Rule 1: The naughty beauty queen fleeing a hotel room, after bedding one of the judges, running away complete with ball gown, sash, and a massive grin.

Rule 2: The cold hearted Homewrecker at her lover's office looking at his Family photo in disgust before placing it face down on his desk.

Rule 3: The unappreciated housewife stirring dog food/arsenic into her husband's dinner.

Rule 4: The coy teen sneaking back home after a date, giving her beau a kiss and a wink.

Jack!

NOOOOOO!!!! Why did you have to put this into my head!?

Now I REALLY REEEEALY want this but I know it won't be this good

I also didn't realize until now how each of the four rules can fit one of the archetypes so well.

Can you like actually write or direct this video? I'm sure whatever Marina does will be great, but I need this to happen... What if Marina saw this and liked it! It just seems so unlikely but you don't understand how much i want this lol.
