Nacida como Marina Lambrini Diamandis el 10 de octubre de 1985 en Abergavenny, Gales, la futura estrella enfrentó desde temprana edad la dicotomía entre su herencia griega y su entorno británico. Este contexto cultural dual influyó profundamente en su identidad artística.
Desde muy joven, Marina mostró un interés por la música y el teatro, participando en diversas producciones escolares. A pesar de no tener una formación profesional en música y enfrentarse a varios rechazos por parte de academias de música, Marina persistió con determinación en encontrar su propio camino hacia el estrellato.
El nombre Marina and the Diamonds no hace referencia a una banda, sino más bien a la intérprete y sus seguidores, a quienes cariñosamente llama "los diamantes". Sus primeras incursiones en la música fueron autogestionadas; Marina compuso, produjo y grabó sus primeras canciones desde su habitación.
En 2007, la joven artista lanzó su primer EP titulado "Mermaid vs. Sailor" de manera independiente. La visibilidad incrementó cuando, un año después, firmó con el sello discográfico Neon Gold Records. Con canciones que reflejaban una mezcla ecléctica de pop alternativo y música experimental, Marina empezó a crear un estilo propio.
En 2010, Marina and the Diamonds lanzó su primer álbum de larga duración, The Family Jewels. Con temas como "Hollywood", "I Am Not a Robot" y "Oh No!", la producción fue un éxito crítico y comercial.

Started in the strangest way
Didn't see it coming
Swept up in your hurricane
Wouldn't give it up for nothing
Now I'm all caught up in the highs and the lows
It's a shock to my system
I don't wanna run away so I stay
My head gets messy when I try to hide
The things I love about you in my mind
I don't really know a lot about love
A lot about love, a lot about love
But you're in my head, you're in my blood
And it feels so good, it hurts so much
I don't really know a lot about love
A lot about love, a lot about love
But you're in my head, you're in my blood
And it feels so good, it hurts so much (So much)
Feels so good, it hurts so much
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
But you're in my head, you're in my blood
And it feels so good, it hurts so much
Think about the time it took for our paths to cross
Read me like an open book
I was found and lost
Now I'm all caught up in the highs and the lows
It's a shock to my system
I know that our love was fate, so I stay
My head gets messy when I try to hide
The things I love about you in my mind
I don't really know a lot about love
A lot about love, a lot about love
But you're in my head, you're in my blood
And it feels so good, it hurts so much
I don't really know a lot about love
A lot about love, a lot about love
But you're in my head, you're in my blood
And it feels so good, it hurts so much
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
But you're in my head, you're in my blood
And it feels so good, it hurts so much
My head gets messy when I try to hide
The things I love about you in my mind
I don't really know a lot about love
A lot about love, a lot about love
But you're in my head, you're in my blood
And it feels so good, it hurts so much
I don't really know a lot about love
A lot about love, a lot about love
But you're in my head, you're in my blood
And it feels so good, it hurts so much
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
But you're in my head, you're in my blood
And it feels so good, it hurts so much
