i love how she captured the crazy vocals gwen had in it originally, i love when marina goes crazy and wild with her voice, that's why the family jewels will always be my favorite album by her. in froot and electra heart she didn't keep the same edgy personality and i wish she would still do stuff like this
Holy shit, I didn't realize this was a cover. Went to listen to the Gwen Stefani version and wow her vocals are actually similar to some of the stuff Marina does, it's like it was made for her to cover lol. So cool
@@hecc it's true. marina is a versatile queen! she can do indie pop (most of her songs), bubblegum pop ("hollywood"), baroque pop ("i am not a robot", "obsessions"), art rock ("mowgli's road"), progressive rock ("philosopher my arse", "this is la", "like china dolls", "troubled mind"), pop-rock ("are you satisfied?", "bubblegum bitch"), dance-rock ("oh no!"), rave ("space and the woods"), electro house ("primadonna", "lies"), operatic pop ("what you waiting for"), disco ("shampain"), funk ("froot"), synth-wave (99% of the froot album), lo-fi/outsider music (the mermaid vs. sailor e.p.), folk (the demo of "girls", "seventeen", "simplify"), ballad music ("buy the stars", "happy"), tropical music ("orange trees", "karma"), latin pop ("baby"), eurodance ("radioactive"), bubblegum punk ("girls"), cabaret ("hermit the frog"), screamo (that bit in "the outsider" where she screams "I'M A FUCKING WILLLLDCARD!!!" at the top of her lungs), ambient pop ("rootless", "teen idle", "the state of dreaming"), chillwave ("gold"), country ("hypocrates" - okay this one is a little bit of a stretch but the bridge with the guitars has country undertones which is probabaly why so many diamonds hate the song) and even rap (certain parts of "homewrecker"). is there anything our queen can't do?
She's singing this like it really meant something to her when she heard it. And if you know her story, then it makes sense. In short, either you get it or you don't. I feel like a lot of Marina's songs are just like that: you either get it or you don't.
@@professionallyhating Yes. I clearly said "She's singing it like it really meant something to her when she heard it." As a Gwen fan, it meant a lot to me when I first heard it too.
i really couldn't decide if i like this cover or the original better, they both go such a completely different way, that I find it difficult to compare them.
I love the grisle in the tone of her voice when she goes into her lower register!! and the heavenly head voice she has is amazing! and I love the way she pronounces some words aswell. I love her voice ❤
I love the emotion she puts into this, you feel exactly what is being conveyed by the song. Her covers are the best IMO. She takes a song strips off the catchy dance music, makes you really hear and feel the song.
I love how her voice is all high and delicate at the beginning, and then its gets so intense and grating and powerful. Marina is amazing, and her covers always beat the originals hands down.
She puts more story into this song then Gwen, it starts off soft and light, as if someone is telling them kindly to take a chance because they might grow, but as the song goes on he voices start getting more angry and menacing sounding like there are people telling her "take a chance you stupid hoe" and "take a chance your capable". Maybe I am reading to much into it but it seems like how as a child your encouraged to take a chance and learn, but when you grow you are told what to do by someone of more authority then you which would make the voice sound more demanding and menacing as you get older.
I didn’t really get this song the first 1000 times I heard it until I hear Marina sing it, and now that I’m a bit a older, I really get it. Most of the lyrics aren’t her words or thoughts, it’s other people’s comments and opinions and “advice” to her. Except the bridge. That still means nothing to me lol. I know the harijuku girls were Gwen’s little project she referenced a lot, but that’s about it
What an amazing time What a family How did the years go by? Now it's only me Tick tock Like a cat in heat stuck in a moving car Scary conversations Shut my eyes, can't find the brake What if they say that you're a cloner? Naturally I'm worried if I do it alone Who really cares 'cause it's your life You never know, it could be great Take a chance 'cause you might grow Oh oh oh What you waiting What you waiting for?

Wow, I love Gwen Stefani but.....this is brilliant! Her voice! She sounds like a mad woman. XD She reminded me of Kate Bush at first. I love what she's done with the song, the way she sings it, it sounds like she wrote it!
She makes mainstream music in an amazing way, in my opinion. Like, she's very mainstream but in the same time she's fucking unique at it, that's how I see her, and that's why I think she's the most amazing artist we have right now. Ya see my point?
I much prefer Gwen's version, but that's not a knock against Marina and the Diamonds. It's a great song and this cover does justice in its own style. Nice to know this version exists too.
I was a big fan of Gwen Stefani when this album came out back in 2007 I think. I recently became a huge Marina fan over the past ~4 months. Needless to say, I've never been so happy
Haysoos I know her hair looks kinda choppy and weird but I think that just the way they styled it, if you look closely you can see strands of her hair hanging down
+Bund Eveuphony Marina has a very unique style that is pretty weird at first, but the more you listen to it, the more you like it. At least, obviously, for those who become fans. She's unlike anything I've ever heard. I like that.
I was today years old when I decided to listen to Gwen Stefani's solo debut and realized that this, indeed, was not a Marina original. I never put two and two together, mainly because it just fits her style so well.
I think the original song is really good, but Marina absolutely killed it! I love how she sounds like she should be in 'Troubled Mind.' (It's an unreleased song by Marina). I definitely prefer this version to the original.

She kinda has a Broadway Disney villain sound to her, its awesome.
That is actually accurate af :o
Ursula!
I sometimes think about a musical with Marina, Kristen Bell, Kristen Chenoweth, and Ariana Grande in it. Only a dream but it would be amazing
YAS! Born to be hated. True Villainess. Perfect.
She was born to sing this song
I think Gwen Stefani was first
she was born to sing any song.

Maybe it's because you've never heard the original version
@@atharkausar8563 never said she wasnt
marina takes a song and gives it her touch which makes it so special and gives me life
Melinda Diamonds yeah I didn't see anything in the original and in this I see so muchhh.
She's singing this like it really meant something to her when she heard it.
And if you know her story, then it makes sense.
In short, either you get it or you don't. I feel like a lot of Marina's songs are just like that: you either get it or you don't.
+Victoria Strider well basically everything in life is like that.

@@professionallyhating Yes. I clearly said "She's singing it like it really meant something to her when she heard it." As a Gwen fan, it meant a lot to me when I first heard it too.
HOW DID I NOT KNOW SHE DID A COVER OF ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE SONGS??
she used to be so fun ugh i want tfj marina back
i really couldn't decide if i like this cover or the original better, they both go such a completely different way, that I find it difficult to compare them.
it's like two different songs
I love the grisle in the tone of her voice when she goes into her lower register!! and the heavenly head voice she has is amazing! and I love the way she pronounces some words aswell. I love her voice ❤

Marina singing one of my favorite songs by one of my other queens.....gods this is great. life just got way better.
Off topic from the marina stuff I want to be with you, I just can't. Not yet. I just need to trust you again however long it takes
SkyClone go away and stop youtube stalking me.
+Belle Chapman eh
OMG I DIDN'T KNOW THIS EXISTED...ONE OF MY FAVES COVERING MY OTHER FAVE'S SONG YAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSS
WHAAAAA i just discovered it now !!
This one has its own appeal, really...reminds me of those Tim Burton kind of heroines.
Amazing, she makes it different and sound something more than it should. Forever a diamond.
I love how her voice is all high and delicate at the beginning, and then its gets so intense and grating and powerful. Marina is amazing, and her covers always beat the originals hands down.
"wachuwerin wachuwerin wachuwerin wachuwerin for"
hey there's my name
+Connie P Jajaja.
faqnhell hey there lovely
OMG she sounds so crazy and I love it!! FOREVER A DIAMOND
I love how she can almost re-invent any song she sings. This is fantastic!
love her smoky, kind of raspy voice here🖤🖤🖤
UGH the harajuku girls line!! her growls are everything to me
When I first heard the original, I thought the chorus could be sung by Marina & The Diamonds. This song was made for her. Addictive af.
this will never ever get old
fr
This song really grew on me. At first I thought it was really strange but now I love it
She is singing it like it's the end of the world and this is the last thing she is doing before everything is destroyed...
This song is so relatable for me, that’s why The Family Jewels is my favorite album. Because I can relate with it the most
this is a cover of gwen stefani's song
yesss it has family jewels vibe 💎
She puts more story into this song then Gwen, it starts off soft and light, as if someone is telling them kindly to take a chance because they might grow, but as the song goes on he voices start getting more angry and menacing sounding like there are people telling her "take a chance you stupid hoe" and "take a chance your capable".

Took my breath away!!! Marina's range is astounding. You have to hear everything she created to really understand her 🙏
the hard Rock side of the intelligent, kind, soft, deep queen ♡ i love her she has too much talent
this would of fit PERFECTLY in TFJ!!
when she said harajuku girls i screamed
Everytime she does a cover of a song it's just better than the original..... That woman blows my mind...
It’s not better than the original 💀 this cover is amazing but not better
@@ethantordeur4592 lol. its so fucking better
@@ethantordeur4592 nah it's definitely better
@@chase5740 no honey ur just tasteless
@@ethantordeur4592it’s better
She could sing any genre and be a queen at
I didn’t really get this song the first 1000 times I heard it until I hear Marina sing it, and now that I’m a bit a older, I really get it. Most of the lyrics aren’t her words or thoughts, it’s other people’s comments and opinions and “advice” to her.
Except the bridge. That still means nothing to me lol. I know the harijuku girls were Gwen’s little project she referenced a lot, but that’s about it
I can hear this being inspiration for mowglis road
THIS IS BEYOND PERF, SHE'S PERF
For me, her accent and her weirdness make's this interpretation so truly fabulous.
I really love the original song, but I think I like this cover version more.. 🤔❤️
I also love how easily she can change her tone of voice so quickly.
What an amazing time
What a family
How did the years go by?
Now it's only me
Tick tock
Like a cat in heat stuck in a moving car
Scary conversations
Shut my eyes, can't find the brake
What if they say that you're a cloner?
Naturally I'm worried if I do it alone
Who really cares 'cause it's your life
You never know, it could be great
Take a chance 'cause you might grow
Oh oh oh
What you waiting
What you waiting for?

Born to blossom, bloom to perish
You know you're only known
'Cause of your sex chromosome
I know it's so messed up how our society all thinks (for sure)
Life is short, you're capable (uh huh)

Climber* not cloner

Nothing screams "Don't Hug Me!" like those shoulder pads.
i’d still hug her. i want my eye to be poked out.
Wow, I love Gwen Stefani but.....this is brilliant! Her voice! She sounds like a mad woman. XD She reminded me of Kate Bush at first. I love what she's done with the song, the way she sings it, it sounds like she wrote it!

Edit: Nothing has changed after ten years.

Take a chance cause you might grow. Take a chance you are capable.
Philosophy.
majorrrr kate bush influences here i LOVEE ITTTT
she's so passionate when she sings that's what makes listening to her so amazing
I was a big fan of Gwen Stefani when this album came out back in 2007 I think. I recently became a huge Marina fan over the past ~4 months. Needless to say, I've never been so happy
Some brilliant photoshopping on the left side of her hair
it's not photoshop her hair is just pulled over to her right shoulder
Alli Kachel no you can tell that they tried changing that background and didn't do a good job at it
Haysoos I know her hair looks kinda choppy and weird but I think that just the way they styled it, if you look closely you can see strands of her hair hanging down
She's just holding her hair with two fingers.
Alli Kachel Nah, I've seen another version of the photo and the hair isn't like that.
This is absolutely amazing. I love how she is creative with all her covers.
Literally makes me cry and laugh…
I love this version.
I love this raspy voice, she should sing like this in one of her new songs :)
Same with her Space and the Woods cover, it sounds amazing
I like both, but the Marina version sounds more emotional (in a good way) so Marina > Gwen in my opinion
I FELL IN LOVE WIT THIS OMFG
Definitely check out the live version of her singing this- it's amAZing!
She even has a tambourine lmao
Take a chance you're capable 😗
She is so amazing, I can't explain how much I love her.
I think the best part is that Marina would write a song like this so it doesn't even sound like a cover sometimes.
How I wish she still performed this live
LOL if there is anything I've learned about this lady, it's that she is just amazing no matter what she does :D
i thought this was her song for 10 years
this is gold ily marina
I found this cover more than a year ago and I still could listen to it everyday.
Lol, this is better than the origional, she makes it sound more like it should :D
this is fucking amazing!! i love both gwen and marina and this is the perfect combination of gwens song and marinas voice
I am speechless. People sometimes forget that she is an amazing vocalist. And lyricist. And it's not fucking fair.
I love this, it's got a theatrical feel to it
This is just perfect! Wait, is a cover!?
Yes. The original sounds soooo different.
from your opinion which is better?
Well i grew up with the orginal because of my mother, this is the first time i listen this cover of Marina but idk i like both.
Who sing the original?
Gwen Stefani
The way she sings the bridge kills me!!! 😍
Fav part Look at your watch now! You're still a super hot feeemale
Mightyena Wildclaws sAME
fookin awesome
It sounds like she's mocking society or whoever says this
***** like ur any better smh
***** ohhhh im so sorry!! ahhh ty my guy
and same i mock myself a lot too
yuurisviktor You know she didn’t write it right
interesting take of the song, I like it.
I love how she makes this version so so so different 3
i need her to release a song in this styleeee. ❤ My favorite
you've got your million dollar contract,and they're all waiting for your heart track
Marina's voice fills me with the most delightful envy
she made it better tbh
+Ruby Lynch Eew. Absolutely a worse version. She sounded like a goat.
+Bunda Erdie i actually loved this version much better than the other 1 ...
+Bund Eveuphony Marina has a very unique style that is pretty weird at first, but the more you listen to it, the more you like it. At least, obviously, for those who become fans. She's unlike anything I've ever heard. I like that.
+Bund Eveuphony She must be the best damn goat you have ever listened too. Personally, I looove Marina and the Diamonds. :)
lol delusion
This seems like the original idea of Mowgli's Road, wow I didn't discovered this until now xD
So good!!
i love this song, glad she covered it
PERFECTION! MARINA MAKES THIS SONG 100x BETTER. I love the original but she makes it even better!
I can literally listen to this all day
Love this song
Reminds me of the way gwen sings it live. Gwens live version sounded NOTHING like the studio one
This Cover gives me LIFE. 😍👌🏽👏
Gwen is singing it like an "anime princess" and Marina is like a dark broken main character
I was today years old when I decided to listen to Gwen Stefani's solo debut and realized that this, indeed, was not a Marina original. I never put two and two together, mainly because it just fits her style so well.
Loveeeeee It!!
Perfect.
MY MOUTH DROPPED OPEN I WAS LIKE "OKAY IT JUST HAS THE SAME NAME AS GWEN'S SONG" BUT NOPE NOPENOENOEPEOPEP OMG
I think the original song is really good, but Marina absolutely killed it! I love how she sounds like she should be in 'Troubled Mind.' (It's an unreleased song by Marina). I definitely prefer this version to the original.
HOW AM I ONLY FINDING THIS NOW!?!?!
I personally like this version better. I think her accent brings out the lyrics more. Really putting more depth into it
I almost died when I found this. I love gwen and marina so much
it's crazy how I had to have another mental breakdown to find this gem
HOLY ISH! I loved this song forever ago, and now my favorite singer sings it... WOAH
her voice is perfect!!
I came here because someone told me she sounds like a spray bottle in this...ACTUALLY SHE SOUNDS LIKE A GODDESS AS ALWAYS
i miss this woman :(
