    I absolutely ADORE the symbolism, from the butterflywings, the characters that look like they’re supposed to be in k-12, and them going to her grave and burying her, everyone knows she’s changing. At first they mourned her and then they helped her and watched her transform into a beautiful butterfly/fairy. Absolutely gorgeous.

    • @focy1546
      @focy1546 년 전 +68

      Also, if you look deeper into her character design, when the fairy has green hair, green can often represent new beginnings and such (I'm unsure if the green hair is permanent or not.) The color on her skin, pink, often reminds people of their childhoods or nostalgia.

    Lyrics:
    Death is life, is death, is life, is death, is life, is
    They're carving my name in the grave again
    The flowers are fresh and their faces wet
    My body has died, but I'm still alive
    Look over your shoulder, I'm back from the dead
    Lighting all your candles to draw me in
    Saying all the same things, I'm gone this time
    Your words mean nothing, so take 'em back
    And meet me here across the plane
    The other side, I'm not far
    When you aren't around, I sink into the ground
    I try to pretend I'm closer to you
    Never understand it
    You're always on my mind, I cannot help it
    I don't wanna be carrying the weight on my shoulders
    Death has come to me, kissed me on the cheek, gave me closure
    Immortal by design
    I'll be meeting you here every time
    Back from the dead, back from the dead
    I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
    I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
    I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
    I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead (death)
    I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead (death)
    I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead (death)
    I'm back from the dead (death), back from the- (I'm back)
    Death, death, death (I'm back)
    Death, death
    (I'm back)
    They're saying my name in their prayers again
    I flicker the lights so they understand
    I won't say goodbye, I'm right by your side
    We're screaming and pleading, this separation ends
    Doing all your witchcraft to pull me in
    Burning all your sage to connect our line
    I show my presence, you run away in fear of ghosts
    I try to talk, the barriers are too strong
    When you aren't around, I sink into the ground
    I try to pretend I'm closer to you
    Never understand it
    You're always on my mind, I cannot help it
    I don't wanna be carrying the weight on my shoulders
    Death has come to me, kissed me on the cheek, gave me closure
    Immortal by design
    I'll be meeting you here every time
    Back from the dead, back from the dead
    I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
    I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
    I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
    I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead (death)
    I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead
    I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead (death)
    I'm back from the dead (death), back from the dead
    Please don't ever worry (back from the dead, back from the dead)
    (I'm back from the dead, back from the dead)
    I know it's morbid (I'm back from the dead, back from the dead)
    But we all die one day (I'm back from the dead, back from the dead)
    I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
    I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
    I'm back from the dead, back from the dead
    I'm back from the dead, back from the- (I'm back)

    If you pay attention @4:16 you’ll notice she’s put 9 swords in crybaby. This could be seen as a reference to the 9 of swords tarot card which represents fear, anxiety, and things that keep you up at night. 9 of swords reversed represents overcoming darkness and once again seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I love it when artists incorporate hidden Easter eggs in their music videos. Good album all together.

    I love that they're going from babycore to fairy goth, I love the idea that they might explore a ton of really distinct aesthetics and switch their whole vibe every time they leave and come back. I love how it frees her from a single aesthetic box but is also so clearly authentic to her overall vibe so you still see what you loved about the last style in this style. Like it's a totally different genre but it's still surreal and a little creepy in a childhood nostalgia sort of way and it's still pastel and it's still femme. And I love that about her. Can't wait to see what she comes up with next.

    i hate how people are saying they dont like the "new melanie". This has always been her. I've listened to her music since I ws in middle school and shes always been different from other artist. Thats what makes her so special to me; that she can be herself not afraid of the world judging her or giving into the worldly view on beauty standards and normality. Shes even expressed multiple times through her songs, for example "fire drill". She knows shes different but she embraces it. I strive to be like her.

    I'm sorry, but I absolutely love her mind because the way she evokes the imagery of tarot cards at 4:17 is perfection. With the 9 of swords card representing Crybaby (9 of swords being the card of pain, sorrow, crying) and by impaling the corpse with the swords the 10 of swords imagery is invoked (10 of swords is like "The worst is over") and shows that this new form is truly going to be nothing like what we've heard from her before and I simply cannot wait.

    • @jeushaneba.rad.2603
      @jeushaneba.rad.2603 년 전

      Today, I want to talk to you about the gospel of salvation according to Romans 6. The concept of sin is central to this discussion. Sin is the act of disobeying God's commands, and it has serious consequences. The Bible teaches that the penalty for sin is death, both physical and spiritual (Romans 6:23).
      But there is good news. Through Jesus Christ, we have a way to be saved from our sins and have eternal life. Romans 6:23 goes on to say, "but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." This means that salvation is a free gift from God that we receive through faith in Jesus Christ.
      So, how do we receive this gift of salvation? Romans 10:9 says, "That if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." This means that we need to confess our belief in Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross for our sins. By doing so, we are acknowledging that we are sinners in need of a savior, and that Jesus is the only way to be saved.
      The significance of Jesus' sacrifice cannot be overstated. He died on the cross as a perfect sacrifice for our sins, taking the punishment we deserve so that we can be forgiven and reconciled to God. Through His resurrection, Jesus conquered sin and death, and offers us the gift of eternal life.
      It is essential to understand that accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior is not merely a one-time decision, but a lifelong commitment. As we grow in our faith, we become more like Jesus, and our desire to follow His teachings increases. We are called to live a life of holiness and obedience to God's commands, not to earn our salvation, but as a reflection of our gratitude for what He has done for us.
      I invite you to consider these teachings and make an informed decision about your faith. If you have not yet accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, I encourage you to do so today. Know that you are loved by God, and that He desires a personal relationship with you. May you experience the peace and joy that comes from knowing Him.

    this comment is for non fans who are confused!!
    Melanie has a character named "crybaby" who she portrays in all her albums. Melanie was bullied and called a crybaby as a kid for being emotional and sensitive which is where she got the name from. Her debut album "crybaby" tells the story of crybaby's birth and life as a young kid. it's a very deep album and the character goes through a lot. In her 2nd album "K-12" crybaby attends a weird school that's very messed up. she also made a film to go with it that's free on youtube called "K-12" as well. The movie was made in 2019 and ends on a cliffhanger (i won't spoil) Melanie released an EP in 2020 called "after school ". the EP is not connected to the storyline but is more so about Melanie's personal life as an adult. After that she then went on a hiatus until this year and dropped her third album "portals". We were left many years wondering what would happen after K-12 then in February 2023 Melanie randomly hit us with a teaser of crybaby's grave. Crybaby has somehow passed away and is now reincarnated as a faerie/siren. It's makeup, a prosthetic and body paint which takes about 2-3 hours to put on and she can see through tiny holes in the bottom pair of eyes. Melanie is currently working on a new film that'll finally show us what happened to crybaby. this album is the final one about this character too.
    (some facts for new fans)
    Melanie is known for having split dyed hair (inspired by cruella de vil) but decided not to give crybaby's new form the split hair because she wants to separate herself from the new crybaby.
    Melanie loves reading tarot cards and in the scene where there are 10 swords in her body is inspired by a tarot card. "the ten of swords" meaning a painful yet inevitable ending or being pinned down by a multitude of things or situations. there are other meanings for this which yall can look up if u want but i feel like those are the main ones. Melanie has been playing this character in her music since 2015 and wants to move on from it but some fans love the old human version of crybaby and melanie from the crybaby era and they won't let her move on and grow. also technically, there are 9 swords in her body but i'm pretty sure her heel is supposed to represent the 10th.
    In majority of her music videos there's always people in bunny masks because when she was young she had a pet bunny and one day found it decapitated so she likes to have people wear bunny masks in her music videos. each era the bunny masks evolve. okay maybe ill add more stuff later idk but ty for reading!
    (typing this from may 7th) i just wanna say ty again to everyone who took time out of their day to read this long comment! it makes me happy knowing that more people are becoming fans of Melanie and i'm glad my comment is helping people understand the story!! :)

    The metaphor of death being the moment the chord connecting Melanie’s dead body with Melanie’s alive soul breaks and being also the metaphor of birth at the same time is too good. It keeps me up at night

    Litterally gave me the chills. I've been a Melanie fan since the beginning and seeing her say goodbye to the crybaby era is bitter sweet but I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this new version of Mel, shes growing spiritually and mentally, and maturing even more than before. This new style is coming to the surface with a new and improved Mel and its beautiful to watch.

    I've always loved how creative Melanie is, since I was young I started learning her songs word by word. I still know the words years later. She continues to come out with amazing music that's not only creative, but meaningful. Music is an art. Melanie has taken the art of music and made it into something more. Something so beautiful that some people don't understand it anymore. Crybaby never left. She reincarnated.

    for anyone saying they will miss the crybaby era just remember: it’s not gone, but rather it has evolved into a new form that is equally if not more creative for Melanie! you can always go back to listen and appreciate the previous albums, i know they hold a very special place in a lot of our hearts, but it’s not like they are being erased. so just try to enjoy the ride and vibe with the new aesthetic! and if you don’t find that it’s for you, it’s okay to move on and grow apart from it, just like it’s okay for Melanie to grow into new types and ways of making music 💘💐 very excited for portals and whatever comes next 🫶💜🌱💫

    this song and music video will always have a special place in my heart because it came out the same night i left a toxic k-12 school (i was there for almost 2 years). i thought the song was also really suiting based of my situation because the song talks about ofc death, feeling peace with yourself again, and your soul moving toward. i’m so thankful to be out of that horrible place and now being in a better place now. my soul finally moved toward and i feel peace with myself once again. so thank you so much melanie 💞💞

    I’ve been a fan of Melanie since I was in second grade, listening to every cry baby song constantly as her being my role model. I’m a sophomore in high school and as much as it’s kinda sad, crying in the beginning of this song watching how much it’s changed, I’m so glad she is who she is because I couldn’t have been more proud of who she’s become. We love you Mel! 💗

    It's impressive how time passed so quickly, portals turns 1 year old... I grew up listening to Melanie's songs, in the end it was confusing when she released Death, but at the same time it was very nostalgic, I really admire all of her work, and during that Over time, several songs were created and greatly appreciated by all of us who are fans of Mel. I really love the way she introduced a new era, a new character, it's so beautiful to see her evolving like that. I admire Mel's work and I hope she continues with her musical career!

She seemed shy and timid but I loved her performance and have been a fan ever since. Now seeing her so successful and happy is such a great adventure. She's really broken out of her shell and I love this for her. ❤
