I definitely fall in love quickly, and I'm very in love with being in love. But it is hard for me to write about love.
Melanie MartinezI love directing my music videos and writing video treatments, and I think it's all just because I love the visual aspect of it as well.
Melanie MartinezI'm gonna write from personal experience, from emotion, from whatever the hell I'm feeling that day.
Melanie MartinezCry Baby is about Cry Baby and the next album [which I think I have a title for but I don't wanna say anything yet because I don't know and it's too early] is a place in the weird town that I'm trying to create and its Cry Baby's perspective throughout this album. You're not learning about her, you're learning about the place that she's in and her perspective. Down the line for sure I will think of other characters in this world.
Melanie MartinezI think that the next album is specifically for sure from Cry Baby's perspective, but it's not necessarily about her family-life or her love-life, or anything like that, it's more about this place in this town. The place has different characters in there, so in every song there's gonna be different characters that appear.
