‘Cupid’s Girl’: Marina winks one eye, he points … and right?

Part of the writing values ​​’Cupid’s Girl’, the last marina after the arrival of ‘Butterfly’. We offer you an opinion in favor and another against. The successor of ‘Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land’ (2021) has not yet been completed.

«The first marine are usually better than the latter and is the case again. ‘Butterfly’ was a novel update of marine sound thanks to its Kawaii chorus and its feast of heavenly melodies. Marine vocal melodies behave as if pop would like to be opera, and are so inimitable that ‘Good Luck Babe!’ From Chappell Roan he received comparisons with Diamandis’s work since the second zero.

‘Cupid’s Girl’ is a less surprising composition. In the lyrics, Marina expresses her lover not to be afraid of love and asks her to surrender to passion. He wants the arc of Cupid to do “doom doom” and that his boy’s heart make “boom boom boom.” The Beat Electropop is urgent, but the Western flavor melody does not convey that urgency, but the familiarity of a trip that you have already made too many times. Production effects try to hide a little inspired composition, but ‘Cupid’s Girl’ never becomes a song “Classic Marina”. Jordi Bardají.

«’Cupid’s Girl’ is one of the most direct and accurate marine songs in its mission. In the corresponding «visualizer», hypnotizing, winks one eye, points and throws an arrow of love that we do not know where it ends, but everything indicates that in its objective, of full.

We are facing one of the artist’s most electropop productions, in which only CJ Baran (Melanie Martinez, Carly Rae Jepsen has been accompanied only). Everything in it works: the stanzas, so debtors of the 80s, the rhyme «doom doom» with «boom boom boom» of the pre-choro, the chorus in a record so acute that makes us think of Kate Bush and finally the post-stribe instrumental stribe that is the true incentive of this song, for the “on repeat” mode.
