ok so there is probably a whole load of dissappointed marina fans when it comes to this song. they are probably thinking 'what??? this isn't marina! this is dr luke or some crazy crap!' and they are partly correct. yes marina did work with dr luke on the production of this song and yes it is marina but not in the way we are used to. we are used to marina writing songs purley about her feelings on the world and her opinions. radioactive IS a song about her feelings and opinions but these ideas are not put directly into the song. the words do not describe marina's hatred of mass produced pop about love and sex but even though the lyrics aren't about that, the song is. marina is using this song to make a point. in the video she starts out as marina like we know her. a beautiful brunette but as soon as she puts on that white blonde wig, she becomes electra heart. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW THAT ELECTRA HEART IS NOT MARINA'S ALTER-EGO. electra is simply a chracter marina has created to tell a story. electra could be compared to lady gaga in that the real lady gaga, steph, does not go around with telephones on her head singing about drugs sex and dancing. lady gaga is just a character. all her manerisms and habbits are fake just like electra is the result of someone's imagination. marina is using this song to say 'look! this is what pop is! look at how disgusted you are at me doing this when you dont have this reaction to rihanna doing the same thing!' she is using it as a wake up call.
so to all you dissapointed diamonds, this song IS marina just in a slightly different way and even if it doesnt have the simple, real instrument music marina uses, listen to the vocals. marina has yet again succeded in creating a song in which she sings both higher and lower than i can in the same line. just keep being faithful to her and think about it. she needs your support.
I agree with you here and there were very disapointed Marina fans. However when I first herd this song I was like 'hmm a bit too dancey for me' and then when I herd it again I loved it. And it's not because I didn't like it at first because this isn't Marina, I didn't like it because I've herd tons of songs like this and it was getting boring. But then when I actually got what she was trying to do I was like ohhhhhhhhh. But still this song is amazing and so are the lyrics which made me...

I have a feeling that 2012 is going to be Marina's year :)
