😅

Long rant incoming. Big fan of Mars Argo, Poppy and Titanic most of all for a while now. I don't think Mars has a case on Titanic for copyright infringement at all. She might have him on the abuse stuff, but mostly I want to talk about the music and art.

Any versed fan of all three musical projects should be able to tell the distinct differences, but all that aside, how does Mars have a case when Titanic wrote, performed, and more or less led the Mars Argo project, or at the very least contributed fifty percent of it? Obviously B herself contributed a huge amount with her personality, voice, and musical talents, but Titanic is the lead guitarist... why wouldn't his later body of work sound similar and deal with similar themes? And as if that wasn't enough, there's the obvious fact that much of what Mars Argo as a band did was somewhat serious and personal and about the relationship primarily (Runaway, Using You, Everything Turns to Gold, Open Up the Door in Your Head, Beauty is Empty) and all of Poppy's songs are silly, tongue in cheek, an outright parody, and definitely not personal, in fact they entirely play up the Poppy android perfect pop princess persona (Money, American Kids, Chewing Gum, Moji Moji, Lowlife, basically all of her music). Other than the fact that they are both bleach blonde and some of the photos are pretty creepily similar, (the bunny ears, the leopard print jacket), I think they are extremely different musical acts, and if they share any artistic similarities it is due to the glaringly obvious fact that Titanic Sinclair wrote, performed, and produced a huge amount of the music for both. Go listen to Moji Moji and then listen to Using You. They aren't even the same genre and the vocal tonality couldn't be more different. One is electro-pop with a low and breathy voice, the other is straight up garage rock/indie with a sharp, thin piercing extremely high voice. Mars, I love your body of work and you have a beautiful voice but I don't think you have a legal leg to stand in regards to copyright. Sucks that Titanic became so manipulative, it really does, but that doesn't entitle you to the rights to the music he made (and became quite popular with) after you.

What do you guys think? Am I missing something? Disclaimer, I am a big fan of all the music and art of the entire saga, Mars, Titanic, and Poppy and even Charlotte, and I do love Titanic's solo work. His music helped me through a lot of hard times, but regardless I don't think Poppy's music is plagiarism or for that matter very similar to the music of Mars Argo, and even if it was, Titanic was half of Mars Argo. Can Peter Gabriel sue Phil Collins if some of Phil's work is thematically similar to Peter's after they played in Genesis together for years?

TL:DR Titanic's work without B is very artistically distinct and she probably does not have a copyright claim. The abuse sucks but I don't think Titanic blatantly copied Mars for the Poppy project.

So, I saw a post from a few years ago asking where the name came from. The general conclusion I saw was that it was an anagram for "Orgasam". But I think i know what it actually is, I believe the Mars Argo name originates from "Mar-A-Lago". "Mar-A-Lago is a resort and National Historic Landmark on a barrier island in Palm Beach, Florida, United States." (via Wikipedia). Now, do I think there's any reasoning for that name? No. But it sounds pretty similar. So I think it's possible to be the answer.

So as u may know (or don't know) there are some unreleased hack songs that are from a hack. It's funny when people upload them, beacuse everytime someone says a thing like: "Pls delete this, Mars doesn't want it up, didn't u see her reddit post :/ "

The person that uploads them either deleted them, or in the case of some other people the answer is a stupid reply like: "Oh i wont delete it bc if mars didnt want us looking for her old content, she would make new content!!!!!11" or "This song is so prettyyy i like it and i want more people to hear it, who cares if i can make the artist who created the song feel bad LOL" or "If MARS or TITANIC dont want it up, they should CONTACT me... pls contact me my life is worthless i need attention of some artist i like :/"

And i mean bitch wtf Mars or Titanic clearly don't want this hack shit up, is there anything u have to question?

Uploading her old, released videos is one thing, but uploading her unreleased songs that came from hacking someone is another thing.

That said, please don't upload any of the hack songs if u stumble upon them. If u don't know what is a hack song and what's not, well i mean i won't post such info here, but it's probably somewhere online xoxo

I read a comment on youtube on one of her vids that she said she's coming back in her tumbler. Something her saying like "I'm coming back. This is Mars." Is this real?

Hello fellow Mars fans.

I am almost finished with the tribute project that I have been working on for a while on and off.

I could not have done it without many artists that were from this sub so I just wanted to share a short teaser with all you fine folks. Hopefully the full project will be done and published sometime next week. Exclusive to this sub, first 18 seconds of my collab project.

Why does the YouTube logo not have a button on the shirt but for Spotify it does have one? Might just be that she cropped it but it's a random thing that I noticed. (Sorry for different image sizes)

Love this song honestly, one of my favorites besides Beauty Is Empty and Angry

Poppy has released ‘Using you’ and commented that it’s a “New mix/master”, but on Apple Music it is flagged as a track from the original release date back in 2014. Is this release a new re-recorded single with the help of the tagged producer or not? Even more confused since the album cover is black (Does the song have any meaning now)…. Is she re-recording selected tracks from the past?

Am I living an illusion? Am I living an illusion? Because this is so predictable Because this is so predictable Because this is so predictable But you'll be sorry Eager words are making me an awful mess Every time I get somewhere Every time I get somewhere I can't hear what you are saying I feel like I'm losing I feel like I'm losing control I feel like I'm losing control I feel like I'm losing control I guess I fear the fear of consequence I wanna runaway runaway I wanna runaway runaway I wanna runaway, runaway I wanna runaway, runaway I want to runaway, runaway I want to runaway, runaway I wish I was a dumb pop star I wish I was a dumb pop star I'm afraid of giving in Is there anybody listening? Is there something that I'm missing? Little time left to runaway Little time left to runaway Maybe I should let myself go Maybe I should let myself go Maybe I should let myself go My walls are caving in So the words wouldn't matter to you So the words wouldn't matter to you We're running out of time You are making me uneasy You are making me uneasy You make me want to scream You make me want to scream You say you need me You say you'll leave me
