Amazing. Marina never fails to amaze me. This is, hands-down, better than the original. I liked the original when I was little for some reason, but Marina managed to turn this into some beautiful, deep tragedy about love and sexual relationships. Love her so much.
I listened to this yesterday, thinking "I like the original's catchyness, but this one is still beautiful" It was stuck in my head all morning, and I was just craving to listen to this again. Yep, I'm officially in love with this cover
This song being sung by Marina in this way makes it sound so sad. :( Whereas the original does not have any emotion in it whatsoever, its just upbeat and made to be "popular"... but I like this version far more, it's actually kind of heartbreaking to imagine someone who cannot love, or thinks they cannot.
I hear this cover everytime I hear both the 30h3 original and the remix with Katy. It being transformed into a tragic ballad really suit it and makes a bubblegum song into something more meaningful.
I love how she completely makes it her own, incorporates it into her style, like it might as well be from her own album and manages to give it a whole different meaning... I DO like the original, but man, that's one awesome cover.
Lyrics Nice legs, daisy dukes Makes the men go 'ooh ooh' That's the way they all come Through like 'ooh ooh, ooh ooh' Low-cut, see-through Shirts that make you 'ooh ooh' That's the way they all come Through like 'ooh ooh' 'Cause I just set them up, just set them up Just set them up to knock them down I set them up, I set them up I set them up to knock them down I think I should know How to make love to something innocent Without leaving my fingerprints out Now L-O-V-E's just another word I never learned to pronounce How do I say I'm sorry when the Words will never come out?

Wow, this is incredible. This is the best version of Starstruck I've ever heard, hands down. Marina just made it her own, she made it different, unique and special in my opinion.
she did the best masterpiece of this song. it covers the aspect of her hurt towards the man who doesn't care about her so the atmosphere is perfect at the end its happier because she escapes from him by using her power her words.
Although she is welsh and greek I see her as a londoner, her accent is amazing and I can easily imagine her living the life in London and going to all the markets and small shops etc :L
I actually believe that this version of Starstruck is better than Katy Perry's version. I also believe that Katy Perry would've been immensely proud of Marina for covering her song, making it her own and also pulling it off. There are plenty of songs out there. Some of them are just as good as the original versions, some of them aren't as good as the original and some of them are better than the original versions. This is one of those songs that's actually better than the original version, it's absolutely fantastic!
People who comment saying the original is better have NO TASTE in music they don't care about the lyrics just the beat anything slow enough to hear what the singer is saying they don't like it really annoys me music is not JUST for dancing!
I love the original as well as this. But i think it would be better if she kept some of the energy of the original, but also add this "marina feel" to it. Kind of like homewrecker. Just my opinion though. I still love this!
@@purepetal6592 but everyone has a different way to express themselves and different ways to make music. If everyone was making the same thing there wouldnt be so many artist right?
Y'all are so pretentious like I love this cover and this intrepretation of the song but then here you guys are going on about how she transformed this "garbage". I love this version so much more, but the original version was more upbeat and catchy, they were the ones who created the song, they were the ones responsible for the lyrics.

its the same lyrics,... but it sounds so much deep.
I know right
The way she rolls her r's is pretty fabulous.
FLORA she’s so pretty and so talented like how th
I feel like a depressed stripper
good bye same
Just reminding you of this legendary comment 5 years later 😭
Love this version so much, and the way how the same words can convey an entirely different message, and this one seems a lot closer to me
its amazing how Marina can take such a revolting song and make it so hauntingly beautiful.
Hi I'm just reminding you this cover exists before the decade ends
Absolutely
L-O-V-E is just another word I'll never learn to pronounce...
L-O-V-E, love is EVOL...
Devil...
Lived.
yes yes yes!

I am very satisfied with your username. **snickers feeling very pleased with my dumb joke**
I prefer the original. But they are both pretty bad. I love marina btw
Penguin Pop shut up
@@jedidiahslaboda5620 Yeah, her voice is a bit shaky, but I prefer this to the original tbh

Sameeee
I think this song would've fit Electra Heart if it was a Marina and the diamonds song
This song being sung by Marina in this way makes it sound so sad. :(
Whereas the original does not have any emotion in it whatsoever, its just upbeat and made to be "popular"... but I like this version far more, it's actually kind of heartbreaking to imagine someone who cannot love, or thinks they cannot.
Rosethemad
I prefer the original one. The song is supposed to be upbeat. Love is a drag. Some people don't want it or need it.
Rosethemad stfu
Hamm Hamm so you have no taste?
@@hanimay6843 based comment, don't mind the conceitual bihs
My ovaries exploded at how she says, ''Oh oh.''
L-O-V-E's just another word I never learned to pronounce
this version is perfect better than the original !
MORGYUK I love marina, but this honestly seems a little scratchy and pitchy, but opinions are there to be challenged so thanks for sharing
Penguin Pop shut up
You know what this is?
Perfection.
Marina never fails to take my nreath away. She took this song i never gave much thought too and made me really look at it, im literally bawling!
I hear this cover everytime I hear both the 30h3 original and the remix with Katy.
It being transformed into a tragic ballad really suit it and makes a bubblegum song into something more meaningful.

THE VIOLIN IN THIS VERSION OMFG IT GAVE ME CHILLS
Hi last year me, I’m low key listening to Marina unreleased songs before sleeping and the violins just TOTALLY WOKE ME UP
This is so much better than the original. Like, 5000 times better.
I love how she completely makes it her own, incorporates it into her style, like it might as well be from her own album and manages to give it a whole different meaning... I DO like the original, but man, that's one awesome cover.
Lyrics
Nice legs, daisy dukes
Makes the men go 'ooh ooh'
That's the way they all come
Through like 'ooh ooh, ooh ooh'
Low-cut, see-through
Shirts that make you 'ooh ooh'
That's the way they all come
Through like 'ooh ooh'
'Cause I just set them up, just set them up
Just set them up to knock them down
I set them up, I set them up
I set them up to knock them down
I think I should know
How to make love to something innocent
Without leaving my fingerprints out
Now L-O-V-E's just another word
I never learned to pronounce
How do I say I'm sorry when the
Words will never come out?
Now L-O-V-E's just another word
I never learned to pronounce
Tight jeans, double D's
Makes the men go 'ooh ooh'
All the people on the
Street go 'ooh ooh, ooh ooh'
Low-cut, see-through
Shirts that make you 'ooh ooh'
That's the way they all come
Through like 'ooh ooh'
'Cause I just set them up, just set them up
Just set them up to knock them down
I set them up, I set them up
I set them up to knock them down
I think I should know
How to make love to something innocent
Without leaving my fingerprints out
Now L-O-V-E's just another word
I never learned to pronounce
Oh how do I say I'm sorry when the
Words will never come out?
Oh now L-O-V-E's just another word
I never learned to pronounce
I know that type of thing
Just don't work on me
Whistling and trying to flirt with me
Don't take this personally
'Cause we were never in love
It doesn't really matter
Who you say you are
Singing out the window of your car
Go find another girl across the bar
'Cause L-O-V-E's not what this was
I think I should know
How to make love to something innocent
Without leaving my fingerprints out
Oh now L-O-V-E's just another word
I never learned to pronounce
Oh how do I say I'm sorry when the
Word will never come out?
Oh now L-O-V-E's just another word
I never learned to pronounce
How did she get this shallow song to sound so deep and beautiful? She's got a secret power.
13 years on youtube, I always come back to listen to this tune
So real
hhnnnnngggg this song is so.....beautiful. but it makes me sad. this is why I love her so much...
THIS one is better than the original ^_^
I came back to this song after years of not listening to it and I still love it.
this could perfectly be a marina song
Wow, this is incredible. This is the best version of Starstruck I've ever heard, hands down. Marina just made it her own, she made it different, unique and special in my opinion.
3:39 - my heart is flipping
She made this song so BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Marina is so amazing!!!!!!!!!!! always so wonderful and unique
This is.. majestic.
3:39 - The best part!
she did the best masterpiece of this song. it covers the aspect of her hurt towards the man who doesn't care about her so the atmosphere is perfect at the end its happier because she escapes from him by using her power her words.
I was serious Katy Perry fan before I was a SERIOUS Marina fan and this amazes me and makes me feel me life has peaked
Although she is welsh and greek I see her as a londoner, her accent is amazing and I can easily imagine her living the life in London and going to all the markets and small shops etc :L
Damn... i will never be able to listen to the original again. Marina is amazing
really awesome! love her
Wow, I love her voice! :)
It's just so awesome that Marina covered this. And it turned out incredible
The original one belongs to the garbage. Marina transformed this song it into a pure diamond - That must be what her artistic name stands for
if there is no original version, marina will not sing this song
.
So beautiful..
this cover is so intense. I'm in love with her voice. :O
welsh waifu, right here.
I like the original song, but I feel in love with marina's version....LOVE IT!.
Need this on spotify😢
This must be from a concert or something. It's not the version on the "Oh No!" single...this is actually way better than that version!
How can we find that version?
I am just stunned
Listening to the original was a waste of time...
Turned a sexist trash song into a masterpiece!
Marina + Katy perry= perfection 😍
Pure talent...
I actually believe that this version of Starstruck is better than Katy Perry's version. I also believe that Katy Perry would've been immensely proud of Marina for covering her song, making it her own and also pulling it off. There are plenty of songs out there.

so much better then the real one! love it. its so pretty * sheds a tear *
People who comment saying the original is better have NO TASTE in music they don't care about the lyrics just the beat anything slow enough to hear what the singer is saying they don't like it really annoys me music is not JUST for dancing!
Only Marina can transform a monstrosity into beauty :D
wow talk about changing the meaning of a song. Great !!
Love this...
I listened to the original after hearing this was a cover and the original SUCKS
this version is great! marina is incredible!
I highly enjoy both this and the original.
whenever people tell me a cover can never be better than the original, i remind them this exists
I couldn't listen to the Perry's original long, couldn't stand it. Marina's version is MUCH better.
I love the original as well as this. But i think it would be better if she kept some of the energy of the original, but also add this "marina feel" to it. Kind of like homewrecker. Just my opinion though. I still love this!
im speechless
Perfection in her voice because it is a real voice not a digital masterpiece that sounds fake
Omg I never listened to this with headphones and omg the instrumentals! I'm shook
When she sings it, It sounds like a deep song about child sex slaves or someone being abused. So crazy.
......anyways
Heres wonderwall.
w h a t ?
nope O'really what the fuck
Wth
This is really good !!!!!!
even if i look for a bad comment i can not find, you are so perfect
@stamam41 Actually, she's Welsh. But cenrockon01, if you knew anything you'd know Wales is within Britain!
I would love to see a well-made pmv with this neat song
why. is. she. so. perfect.
@ApathyofHeart Omg yes! Emilie Autumn + Marina would be the BEST COMBINATION EVER.
I much prefer the original, but respect for making her own version.
love love it! greets from Athens!
My god this version is SO MUCH BETTER!
It all has to do with interpretation my man. Change the tone and mood and your connotation is completely different.
I lost it when she sang DDs
THIS IS FUCKING AMAZING!!!!
yeah, that's why it says "cover" right there in the video description.
Katy who?
I like the 3oh3! version better. Tell me anything you want about how this ones better.
I like the emotional effect in this one.
she showed that even unmeaningful pop songs can actually be transformed into something with lots of meaning
Marina. And what they said ^
@@purepetal6592 but everyone has a different way to express themselves and different ways to make music. If everyone was making the same thing there wouldnt be so many artist right?
Holy crap, simply Amazing!
omg!!!! amazing song!!!
well i wasnt expecting that :O i acctually love it !! :D
she is to me!
it's been almost a decade since this cover omg😭💖
what is this magic
Y'all are so pretentious like I love this cover and this intrepretation of the song but then here you guys are going on about how she transformed this "garbage". I love this version so much more, but the original version was more upbeat and catchy, they were the ones who created the song, they were the ones responsible for the lyrics. We can't completely discredit the original writers like this.

No1 curr!
I could hear this 24h a day
@ForeverLostInside Marina is greek. Her name is Μαρίνα-Λαμπρινή Διαμάντη.
I love this version!!! XD!!! Me encannnnta su musika!! ;D
@MissScarfaholic i love how marinas voice is quite shakey , i think it adds to the feel of her music , but i have to say ellie goulding i brilliant (:
yes, this is Music
Her voice reminds me of Emilie Autumn's... Would be awesome to get them to sing together.
True tbh
good mellow version, different style to Katy's - cant compare them myself, I appreciate both :-) different moods with same lyrics
Subscribing just cause of your name! *o*
...and that you've got this beautiful work of art that is in your video(:
I love how she made it a sad song
