I must say I'm not familiar with this album but I know I've reviewed Marina in some other rankdowns, so this sounds like it should be a good one.

Caviar's request to be untagged from every rankdown is one of the more reliable and entertaining early-thread comments tho.

Only doing this if this means it's an album rankdown series! As one of Pulse's biggest Marina fans, this was always the intent. I love Electra Heart and Froot just as much as I love TFJ, Ancient Dreams In A Modern Land is a solid album, and thats it. Not forgetting any albums here, definitely not nope not at all. What do you mean, the series of all Marina & The Diamonds albums? Yeah Shooter was referring to doing all the Marina albums.

Yes, at least 10 times across multiple threads and everyone has been respectful and removed me without issue. Rankdown hosts tend to base their reminders off the collection of names in the first post of this thread: pulsemusic.proboards.com/thread/180766/list-thread-reply-added-categoryAsking the creator of that thread to be removed from that OP will greatly reduce the number of notifications you receive from the Games forum.

Not surprised about title track being last, itβs good but honestly outclassed. Girls is one of those songs on the album that I do enjoy quite a bit and enjoy listening to (especially compared to other songs on the album), but also isnβt something I return to as much as other songs on TFJ.

Points: 140 Average: 10 SD: 3.7210
Ranks: Sambalada 3 ry4n 4 BBπ 6 American Idiot 7 #brayden 10 samoπ¦ 10 .indulgecountry 10
SHOOTER 11 Mirago 11 wrip 13 nathanalbright 13 reputainbow 13 Gonza'90 14 Mirago 15
My Thoughts: Track #9 off the album, easily one of the most outlandish songs in her discography. The song lyrically is about a dream where she watched a friend's dog and somehow upon picked it up and broke the dogs legs. So in the dream she decides to not face the consequences and goes on the run, leaving the dog to die. I really enjoy the chorus, bridge, and melody but the verses and theme do not really hit the mark for me. I still enjoy the song but I come back to this the least.

I really like this album and remember listening to it several years ago when I first got into Marina during the Electra Heart era. It was nice going back and listening to it since I hadn't in a while.
None of the songs on this album are bad in my opinion... some are just more my style than others I guess. Not too surprised with the first three out. I probably would have ranked "The Outsider" a bit higher back in the day but it didn't do much for me on my recent listens. "Seventeen" wasn't on the version of the album that I had so it's the only song I was unfamiliar with. I tried to rank it based on where I think it would end up had I been familiar with it for 10 or whatever years.
EDIT: I see "Guilty" is out now too. I do enjoy that one.

Sweet, this is one of the only songs on the album that I donβt find myself wanting to listen to when it comes on
