Melanie Martinez - Detention [Official Music Video] REACTION

[@andyd3447]

Melanie served Quality and choreo. On the back story of this song Melanie said that the record label wanted her to be the sexy latina stereotype and she fought back against that. Thats why her outfit has a kind of latina vibe to it. Also the suggestive choreo is her way of showing what they wanted her to be as an artist. Thats why she looks miserable while dancing, even though she said she loved the choreo while making the video. I think its a creative way to show how the industry puts female artists in a box.

im screenshotting that lol

[@Terapagos3000]

Where did she say that?

[@andyd3447]

@@Terapagos3000 it was during one of her interviews for the k-12 era. I cant remember exactly which one.

[@terra5857]

Glank it’s an interview on her channel

"pretending everything's alright IS detention" you pretending you're alright is your own detention and yuh ur interpretation is good she said art is open for interpretation. BTW this is my favorite song from the album and one of the best visual scene from the movie

[@onegirlshow7706]

Detention and High School Sweethearts are in her film: K-12. You guys should totally react to it because it has many messages in it. Plus, it will make more sense as to why her eyes were like that during the bridge. Love your reactions💕💕

[@onegirlshow7706]

She has directed K-12 as well and also directed 11 out of her 13 music videos for her first album: Cry Baby. I do recommend you guys check those videos out as well. But do them in order because they have a story: 1. Cry Baby 2. Dollhouse (not directed by her, but was her concept) 3. Sippy Cup 4. Carousel (same thing) 5. Alphabet Boy 6. Soap 7. Training Wheels 8. Pity Party 9. Tag, You're It 10. Milk and Cookies 11. Pacify Her 12. Mrs. Potato Head 13. Mad Hatter

[@alyssiafullen1305]

The song is about mental health being a prison or "detention." Your theory is actually what her song Show and Tell is about. (You should react to that one if you haven't already) That's why she says " Sadness, can't you see it? You're too busy seeking self-pleasures. Look at how I'm feeling. Let me crawl up into your mind, did I mention? Pretending everything's alright is detention. I wanna go home and you say, 'Now is not the time.' Fuck being all alone in back of the classroom." It's about mental health being her personal detention, but since society wants everyone to sugarcoat everything, she puts on a fake smile (the injection at the beginning) and that fake smile hides her pain (stuck behind the glass cage and on display for the students), and since people think you're "normal," they feel like they can pick on you (things being thrown at the cage) but once she finally snaps and shows everyone how she's truly feeling, it scares them (breaking out of the glass cage and scaring the students). Sorry this comment is so long, I just love her so much.

[@angeldizon6702]

Yassssss one of a kind artist that make songs titled has deep meaning not just the title meaning itself, she also uses metaphors to really have an artistic taste so that the audience will intrigued to listed to her songs.❤️

[@cjblvd]

If you’re staying on the K-12 album, please react to the principal or show and tell, and if you go to her crybaby album, please react to sippy cup or alphabet boy

[@rubencruz1225]

YES I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

[@jazsweatman]

You guys should watch and/or react her entire film, K-12,(that she wrote, directed, designed, and starred it) if you haven't already. The music videos will make more sense and it's really good. Her first album, Cry Baby, is amazing and I highly suggest it. Melanie has a dark child-like aesthetic through out all of her music/music videos and she never disappoints. Her music is very deep and it takes on topics that people don't like to even talk about. Her music is very poetic and she's a lyrical genius. Melanie has gone through a lot and many people have tried to end career for no reason. Thank you for showing her some support and love. You're helping Melanie gain more fans. Hopefully, you become Cry Babies(that what her fans are called)!

[@breezywilson9325]

Great reaction!! The music videos make more sense if you go in order. Keep up with the great content.

[@girlasf]

OMG PLEASE DO SHOW AND TELL NEXT

[@katanderson1731]

I really appreciate that y'all actually listen to the lyrics. I have already seen reactions where people just talk about liking that she is showing more skin or how sexy she is when that is the exact point of a lot of her music.

[@teatimewithjoseph4851]

I’m new to you guys I’m definitely subscribing I love how energetic and cool you guys are !

[@skelleta]

1:40 the first time I watched doll house (4 years ago)

[@kat2loyal]

Melanie Martinez is a queen.

[@Bunny-vm7oy]

She’s so underrated

[@devilmindzz6646]

I love how they say oop 😂😂💀 ( still watching till this day )

[@Ty-cz6ei]

As a gay man who STANS Melanie, this scene is incredibly sexy and provocative because it shows a journey from being put down to being stronger than an oppressor. You have to watch the movie on your own time though to understand any of the videos

[@endersorceress]

you guys definitely need to see either the movie or watch the music videos in order cuz it explains why there's the black eyes and the whole school scenerio

[@marageta]

i love your reactions to her!! 💞

[@angelck785]

The moment I saw the Sherlock poster at the back, I IMMEDIATELY SUBSCRIBED!

[@Marisa.eliass]

YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THISSS AAAA

[@sirsybbgummy]

I think you guys should do a video of the movie with segments so it's not so long

[@ironbussy589]

I never thought of how you thought of the video and it makes so much more sense now

[@sunshinelove-c3q]

How did I even miss this!

[@mpb4442]

[@hiitsalexis7445]

YESSSS OMGGGGGGGG TY I WAS WAITINGGGGG 😂

[@ximerah16]

7:58 gives me show and tell vibes

[@hannahbentley_05]

I could be wrong ,, but I think that Mel use to have a bunny when she was younger - and they show up in a lot of her videos ; usually as the “bad guys”; I guess you could say.

[@miyoriipark]

Please do More Melanie Martinez!!!!I recommend,Pacify Her,Mad Hatter,Lunchbox friends,Class fight,Teachers pet,Or Carousel

[@aleta14]

the song is basically about the music industry like you said. "the teachers(music label) dont care about me. fuck how i feel as long as i make money". the kids watching are her fans that want her to dance more sexually and show more skin, the music label sees that's what they want and they make her do it. that was basically her saying "is this really what you want from me?"

[@somethingbadishappening]

Aah💕 you should really look into more of her songs, like Strawberry shortcake and Orange juice🤷🏻‍♂️👀 'cuz your reactions are 🙌🏼💕

[@has5ul707]

[@justanotheranimator637]

You should react to Twenty One Pilots if you haven’t already. They’re music has rock, pop, alternative, and even rap in it. (Also their music videos are super cool). If ya want a place to start, they got a trilogy for their new album. The music videos go 1. Jumpsuit 2. Nico and The Niners 3. Levitate :)

Como eu vim parar aqui?... Acho que estou escutando a melanie de mais for you to understand: how did I get here? ... I think I'm listening to Melanie too much (n sei se tem Br aqui)

[@lovely.gamora790]

So I noticed you guys are a little creeped out about the things in the music video like the needles the eyes so you need to listen to the first album to get what's happening it's just a character Melanie made up the character's name is crybabyin order to get the back store you have to go to her first album before listening to the second warning kind of creepy to she's known for doing her creepy things that's what I love that her so get used to seeing all those black eyes lol

[@teddy_bear__lover5886]
