Raven, Marion - Better Than This Lyrics






So now it's time to carry on
We're no longer stereo
Oh we lost the fire from september
And I can't do with only ember

And now's the day to let it be
Cause you don't really care for me
Weeks of silence you have put me through
And I never knew where I had you

I wish I could push pause tonight
In the middle of the applause and the light
How we are together I'll forever miss
Cause I know nothing gets better than this

But now its time to look ahead
Forget the things we never said
Wish I could go back and do it again
Maybe we would do it differently then

I wish I could push pause tonight
In the middle of the applause and the light
How we are together I'll forever miss
Cause I know nothing gets better than this

Oh how I wish time could stand still tonight
In front of me you are such a sight
How we are together I'll forever miss
Cause I know nothing gets better than this

    Did this song dedicated to marit? I'm pretty sure, the picture in the book which covered with beads is picture marion and marit when a little girl maybe teenage?

  11. V.... M....

    pretty like Marit 😍

  12. s.... ....

    oh my gosh, why am I only discovering this now !

  13. V.... D....

    Magical music, song, Marion...

  14. J.... G....

    Ok, my english probably sucks (At least when I am complaining of movies that's not the case here) but I just saw Don't save me and this back to back and yeah they pretty much have a code that probably only the other half of M2M can fully decode but it might be there, there's a moment in Dont' save me with a young woman in the piano (clear brunetter tho) and here Marion goes crazy on the piano, both songs feature kids heavily in the videos, that's pretty obvious, there's a moment where an older brunette appears here, which probably keeps the theme "It doesn't get better".

    Now I am not saying that everything in Don't save me video has to do with Marion just the piano girl, it is relevant however that Don't Save me is really old it makes sense in that context and it is no longer Marit's idea of Marion. However this is relatively closer and I don't know what to make out of it.

    However both Don't Save Me and Better than This in a certain way are (Or at least one can strongly make a case) like the lost m2m songs that we never got and they offer closure to the whole ordeal, we might never get to see them together again but we got this.

    Regularly not a fan of Marion music but this one is pretty nice.

  15. A.... A....

    Beautiful!

  16. T.... M....

    Es una lastima que Marion haya decidido publicar una seleccion de temas de Songs from a black bird y Scandal vol 1 y 2, en lugar de publicar internacionalmente los tres proyectos.

  31. J.... G....

    With the M2M split, The point here I think, Marion left Marit in the dark with the counter offer to go solo and leave M2M. I assume Marit was not aware that Marion will press on ...without her. Heck I would be happy for my best friend if her career is flying great compared to mine. I wouldnt hold back or hold down her success. But I think Marion handled the whole thing poorly
    and selfishly..hence making Marit feel betrayed / abandoned. To be dropped like a sack of potatoes just like that would make anyone feel what Marit experience.

    But I am glad Marit is ok. I think commercially she is a better success than Marion (karma's a bitch...). Marion may have the vocal chops, but Marit to me is the more talented, gifted artist.

    J.... G....

    John Galt The true story was that The Big Room was a flop and the studio producing their records decided to drop them. Marion and Marit flew home alone, they were both quite saddened by the news. what's worse was that their families were away. Since they were on tour, their families left to travel. When the production company dropped them, their tour was cancelled halfway and they had nowhere else to go but home. Apparently, Marion said that Marit and her didn't speak for a while but met up a few weeks after returning home. They talked about what they wanted to do and where they were headed. Marion said that Marit and her always agreed that they would continue making music together as long as they were having fun. However, it was starting to become more stressful and the girls wanted different things. Marion wanted to continue with pop while Marit wanted to rock. They parted amicably and there was never any bad blood between them. When Marion was asked if she had any regrets, she only mentioned that a few of the skirts she wore were too short haha. Some time later "The Day You Went Away: M2M's Greatest Hits" was released. Great album. It contains a few acoustic versions of their songs that are absolutely beautiful. I always felt like their voices had a certain magic to them and you'd hear it best in the acoustic songs.

    J.... G....

    @MChipsTV Thank you for settling out the situation, especially with what so many people want to believe about Marion. :/

    (I also want to mention the small typo in that Marit wanted to continue with pop and Marion wanted to do rock.)

  32. C.... T....

    This song is really good! Its just sad tht it wasnt given the attention that it deserves

    C.... T....

    agreed..i first listened to it but now i can't stop listening. it is still in my head.

  33. L.... T....

    Marion's voice is sublime and the melody is so dreamy ^_*

  34. L.... G....

    wow her beauty never fades :)

  35. A.... E....

    I have been your fan since I was a little boy, and I wish you all success

  36. F.... K....

    I love her...

  37. e.... v....

    alguien que pueda traducir esta cancion!! porfis!!.....lo poco que entiendo me gusta jeje pero ojala alguien pudiera traducirla!!!

    e.... v....

    No se de que sirva 2 años después pero bueno.

    Es el momento de continuar porque ya no somos "stereo"
    Perdimos nuestro fuego de septiembre y yo no puedo seguir con solo cenizas.
    Hoy es el día de dejarlo ser porque a ti en realidad no te importo.
    Han sido semanas de silencio las que me has condenado, nunca supe donde es que yo te tenía.
    Desearía poder poner pausa esta noche a la mitad de los aplausos y los reflectores mientras estamos juntas, eso siempre lo voy a extrañar porque se que a partir de allí ya no mejorará.
    Ahora es el tiempo de mirar más allá
    Olvidar las cosas que ya nunca nos pudimos decir.
    Desearía poder volver atras y hacer las cosas de nuevo
    Quizá lo haríamos diferente esta ocasión
    Se repite el coro.

  38. l.... b....

    genial cancion, que recuerdos de aquellos cantantes comparados con los de ahora

    l.... b....

    HERMOSA CANCION. I LOVE MARION RAVEN

  40. H.... M....

    minuto 3:12 marit larsen

  41. V.... S....

    Que triste que nadie vea los vídeos de Marion, lindos temas y pocas reproducciones 😔

    V.... S....

    Este año descubri que seguián cantando ella y la otra después de M2M, ya que MTV solo pasa música de madrugada(el resto del día puros realitis de Usa y México) y no recuerdo que Much Music la pase, al menos en Argentina

    V.... S....

    ya escuchaste a Marit?

    V.... S....

    Muy buena música, talento puro! Me han costado conseguir sus discos pero valen la pena, tanto de Marion y Marit

    V.... S....

    Vic Snoval
    Creo que todo se debe a la falta de promoción pues sus canciones son muy buenas, pero creo que es mejor así. Que siga en esa linea, con los fans que verdaderamente la sigue. Pues quizás ahorita estaría comercializada como el caso #Taylor que se salio de su género para irse al pop, y ahora pues mas bien es material desechable en la industria.... Sin talento y solo una cara bonita.
    En cambio aquí aplica todo lo bueno: Buena musica, voz, composición, interpretación, buen físico,... vaya ¡TALENTO!

    V.... S....

    Vic Snoval lo sé tanto Marion Raven como Marit Larsen son muy talentosas. Tengo algunas de sus canciones en mi playlist

  42. C.... ....

    Hey i'm Ferdinan Boy,from Indonesia.I miss you and your band M2M much.
    So Glad hear your again and this song.And Got Subscribe For you.

  43. W.... ....

    @Marit Larsen You really can't pretend that you have no feeling.

  44. E.... ....

    M2M was dropped by their label Atlantic Records on September, 2002 and I remember Marion stated in her blog the reason why Atlantic pulled the plug. She said their 2nd and last album "The Big Room" wasn't as successful as "Shades Of Purple." After revealing their album's lack of sales, fans of M2M was devastated and the rumor of M2M's break up has been going around for weeks because rumor has it, Atlantic had shown a great deal of interest on Marion but not on Mairt. Months later M2M announced their break up because Marion was offered a $1,000,000 recording contract by Atlantic records and she gladly accepted it. Leaving Marit behind, fans of M2M called Marion selfish because of how she betray her bestfriend for fame and money. Regardless of Marion's attitude towards Marit, Marit kept trying to reconcile her friendship with Marion but Marion ignored her for years. Clearly, Marit felt betrayed by Marion and years later Marit decided to record her own album and her first track was a song about Marion which is "Don't Save Me." A song about betrayal. Marion's career backlashed and she wasn't that successful, later on she was also dropped by Atlantic because she didn't meet the company's expectation and since then her career went down the drain though she did a duet with Meatloaf. Marit on the other hand had a number 1 single on Germany, sold out concerts and probably a lot more successful career than Marion base on her Youtube views but neither of these girls had the same success they had when they are M2M. I guess this is Marion's way of saying sorry to Marit.

    E.... ....

    Ester this is very true, marit is more successful than marion

    E.... ....

    Having a childhood besfriend and all of sudden broke up cause by external factors, is the saddest story in the world. I feel you, Marion.

    E.... ....

    You've all been living under a rock, Marion's career has been by a LANDSLIDE bigger than Marit's, c'mon, are you people high?

  49. J.... G....

    This song is about marit larsen :O

  50. D.... A....

    Nice Song and I Really Like It
    So deeply lyrics, Marion....."

  51. L.... I....

    My favorite song
    Hmm...Nice Lyrics
    and Nice Song...."

  52. D.... S....

    Flott sang og tekstene er gode
    hmm...Jeg liker denne sangen

  53. R.... J....

    I miss the M2M😢 If only they can be together again👭... would that be nice😊

    R.... J....

    Retchie John Medina well at least you and we all get a song about m2n which is more thab I was expecting

  54. R.... C....

    The song is about Marit Larsen. The 1/2 of M2M about their relevant and disbanded times... I hope they will still make a song, album, and videos in the very near future.

  55. M.... R....

    am I the only one who thinks those pictures that appear on the notebook the little girl has are from Marion and Marit back in the day? anyone else sees this?

    M.... R....

    michel roberts wow... no lo había notado aunque intuía que era una disculpa de Marion a Marit.... y qué opinas de "traveling Alone" de Marit Larsen... yo creo que es una clara respuesta de disculpa no aceptada no? ... o más bien como decir estás sola de ahora en esto...

    M.... R....

    Marion Raven Latina si ... me encanta esta canción tanto la música como la letra... y soy yo la única que lo piensa, o la canción "traveling Alone" de Marit es una clara respuesta de disculpa no aceptada... ??

    M.... R....

    Lo único seguro es que aquí tenemos a una de las traidoras más grandes de todos los tiempos: Marion Elise Raven y por supuesto que la dulce, linda y tierna Marit Larsen no le va a perdonar nada a esta miserable.

    M.... R....

    I was thinking the same thing that the blonde is Marit from the M2M days.Im sure they miss each other but won’t admit it publicly.Marit did say she holds that time dearly but wants to move on and not do the same collaborations as in the days of M2M 😭😭 song makes me cry though.

    M.... R....

    Que les pasó porque se pelearon?

  56. R.... P....

    the lyrics.. seems like its a song for marit larsen???

    R.... P....

    Raven Perf probably is.sounds like she misses her they both sing about each other. They just won't admit they miss each other.I want to cry how I miss those days .:(

    R.... P....

    U y that day? Is that a Marit Larsen song?

  57. s.... j....

    a song for her old friend..

    s.... j....

    I also feel the song is about M2M... don't know and could never truly understand what exactly happened to them... if it is true that this is about M2M, then it is very sad... I miss M2M so much & wish they could get back together making music, but maybe fate has it that they're not meant to be making music together forever... now I just hope they can at least be good friends again someday...

    s.... j....

    @myzaAkmar Past has passed, everything has changed. They still contact each other, and they're still still good friends I think. They did a photo together taken in 2014 in an event.

    s.... j....

    @Syaelendra S yes I knew they met again last year at the wimp party/event. I have been following their career since 2000, too. :)

    s.... j....

    Indeed. I am curious that it is always September. First in The Day You Went Away, then the M2M breakup, and now in this song. What a month, September.

  58. R.... G....
