Marina and the Diamonds - "Forget" [Music Video Premiere!]
With the release of her new album "Froot" to take place in less than two weeks, Marina and the Diamonds premieres the official music video for the latest single “Forget” on YouTube.
Directed by Markus Lundqvist, the simple ‘performance’ video plays with the concept of dark and light.
“Forget” can be considered her 'new single', right? I mean, with Ms. Lambrini Diamandis you never know these days. She’s released what? 4 'singles' in the last 4 months? I’m really starting to believe she’s yet to release an ‘official’ single, and that these all have been just ‘buzz’ cuts, as she’s yet to promote any on television, or radio. She’s really doing almost zero promotion for "Froot" actually. March 16 is just around the corner and I'm really worried the first week sales are going to be tragic. True the selected songs that have been individually released on iTunes over the past few months have reached very high positions on iTunes but it's also true they've not lasted that long there. I'm not hating she's premiering music videos for these songs, it's just that I wish she would give that chosen song more promotion than just a music video. Maybe a performance on some late-night show? Is that too much to ask?
Anyhow, going back to the newly-premiered “Forget” video, as I said, it shows Marina and the Diamonds playing with the concept of dark vs. light and looking extremely stunning. It sees the English singer-songwriter serving different fashions as a circulating camera shows the two sides of wall.
I enjoyed this but I really would’ve preferred an MV with a story line for this song.
What do you think of the video?
