Sadsies!! We hope it’s nothing too serious, Marina!
The UK debut of Marina and the Diamonds'Electra Heart album was tainted today, as Marina Diamandis' has an extremely inflamed vocal chord and will be unable to sing until her throat has chilled the fu** out!
On doctor's orders, Marina must rest her voice for AT LEAST a month, lest she cause permanent damage.
Unfortunately, this affects her upcoming Lonely Hearts Tour - due to ignite this Friday in Manchester - but thankfully,
Only a few short days until we're fully impacted by the AWESOMENESS that is the release of Electra Heart, but Marina & The Diamonds is certainly keeping us satiated until it drops on April 30th!
Check out the singer's music video for her new, acoustic version of the album track Starring Role, which she released as the lead single off her Primadonna promotional acoustic EP (above)!
We just ADORE how she can produce such frenetic, stunning pop jams…and yet they can still be stripped down to dreamlike, fragile ballads!
In anticipation of their May 8th sophomore album debut, Marina and the Diamonds have teased us with weekly, acoustic installments of their Electra Heartsongs, but now we have two tracks straight off the record that will dazzle your face off!
Lies is a heart-wrenching tale of dysfunctional love that we allll can relate to.
The State of Dreaming is an ethereal exploration of the facades we don as coping mechanisms to deal with this f**** up world we live in!
Whether or not you like Justin Bieber's song Boyfriend — it doesn't EVEN matter!
Marina and the Diamonds just did an AMAZING rendition of the song, switching up the word to girlfriend, of course…and we seriously can't stop hitting replay!!!!
Take a listen for yourself (above)…we have a feeling some of you may even like it MORE than the original!!!
Marina premiered the song on BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge today and though we were waiting for Selenita to do a cover, (maybe she can do a happier one?) we're glad SOMEBODY finally did the girl version!
Like what you hear? The songstress' album Electra Heart hits stores May 8th and will be touring North America this summer!!!!
Marina and the Diamonds have been teasing us weekly by releasing naked, acoustic video versions of songs from their upcoming electro-pop album Electra Heart.
This breathtakingly beautiful version of LIES is everything a song about dysfunctional love should be…
Words can't describe its emotional core, so just click (above), sit back and absorb the force that is Marina.
Electra Heart drops May 8th and the band just announced a North American tour last week!
Some sneaky sis (or bro!) took a little behind-the-scenes video of Madonna's MDNA tour rehearsal in Tel Aviv this weekend and has shared some incredible footage!
Part of Madge's setlist is her iconic homage to self-love, Express Yourself, but in her 2012 version, she is spicing it up by mashing it with Lady GaGa's similar anthem, Born This Way.
Yeah, you're not going to want to miss this!
Ch-ch-check out the video (above) to hear Madonna sing BOTH Express Yourself and Born This Way!
