One of my favourite songs, Pin talks about getting a scar with a hot safety pin & I've heard that Grimes stated in an interview that she got a matching burnt scar with a friend. Does anyone know more abt this? Has anyone ever spotted this scar, where it is on her body & how it looks?

I’ve been a fan of grimes for years and recently started bumpin her music again. Pin has been my favorite song of hers since I was a teenager. What’s yours? :)

I can sing (speak) all Book 1 songs except some Coachella songs, as well as Pretty Dark and We Appreciate Power in order and all lyrics without any assistance. This ability lessens with Miss Anthropocene, still with Art Angels, and I barely know anything from Visions, Halfaxa, Darkbloom, Geidi Primes, except for mandatory Genesis and Oblivion knowledge.

What about you? Which song lyrics do you remember 100% ?

a while ago I commented that IDORU is a song I always skip because I found the intro long and annoying. I had totally missed the beauty of it and it’s been on repeat for over a week, nothing else quite compares, except maybe some unreleased songs like Digital Calypso or Fantasia. As a fairly big science fiction & literature nerd I was a bit surprised I had never come across the fiction by William Gibson, so imagine my delight after listening to the song for a week and realizing the lyrics and layers are both inspired by life and art from the past. I know c gets a lot of hate and valid criticism, but the talent and the inspiration in her music feeds my soul during a difficult time in my personal life. Even if she has bad takes or awful friends, her music helped me and that’s a force for good, plus she’s been a catalyst for many people recognizing to the new techno guilded age and forcing people to look for a light past the dark, whether they like her or not she makes people think about things they might not think of themselves. Anyways, has anyone read Gibson? Worth reading or more fun to study; 1984 for example, fun to study not a fun read.

I’m interested to see what she was like

Hi everybody!

It's my pleasure to announce and to experience this subreddit reaching 50k members. Of course, not all are active users, but those who are - I say my thanks to making this community happen and thrive. May the whole world join r/Grimes!

As for the 'More' part, I'd like to inform and hear your opinion about some of the changes and designs I've made to this subreddit from when I became moderator:

Firstly, I've added a bunch of new user flairs in the 'User Flair' tab, check them out! They range from song names to descriptions to individual logos - the choices are many, but I'm looking forward to creating more, so if you have any ideas for songs and their respective colors, associated pictures, let me know!

Also, would you like to see lyric excerpts/phrases from Grimes be put as flairs? Is there any you live by (Grimes' doesn't recommend). See below some examples:

Secondly and most obviously, the two year old r/Grimes subreddit picture and banner was changed to Grimes' most newest look, to reflect the changing times. The background color theme was adjusted as well. Are we happy with that?

Third, the Wiki in the Community Bookmarks section was overhauled by me. I'm still working on it, but there you can find a summary of Grimes, her career and personal life, as well as links to every content resource about Grimes - her complete song collection, music videos, pictures, interviews, artwork, you name it.

And that concludes everything you'd need to know about this subreddit! Keep up Grimesposting, Grimessharing, and Grimesmaxxing, to not lose the moment for the leadup to Book 1.

This is also your opportunity now to ask me anything, if you are interested in learning anything specific about me, this subreddit or the Grimes Wiki, which is the other place I run, though you should not shy away from DM'ing me directly or through modmail if you have anything to ask, at any time.

Cheers!

This song is sooo good. I remember it coming out and I was on vacation for two weeks in Italy when it leaked. Then it dropped officially shortly after. I had it on repeat scootering around the city.. The lyrics? The beat?! It’s an amazing track and I don’t think we show it enough love!!

There is this super old video of grimes talking about the brand she got when she was in high school. Does anyone know of pictures of it? She says it’s her favorite scar lol
