“I wish I could tell you that you’re fine, so fine” “The way you look is not an issue” “Your body is imperfectly perfect” This song sends so many positive messages.

This is one of the reasons why I love Melanie. While many singers making songs just bout love, crushes etc.. Melanie is writing & singing songs about everyone afraid of talking or ignoring. Orange Juice - speaks on eating disorders and how the way you look is so fine. Teacher's Pet - the song speaks on pedophilia, grooming, and inappropriate teacher-student relationships. Strawberry Shortcake - The song is about how many girls are taught from a young age that they are only valued if they are attractive to men. This regularly causes them to feel insecure about how they look since they do not fit society's standarts. And there are so many songs i didn't count. Note 1 : I am not saying "everyone" or "every other artist" I am saying "most artists" just sings about love, crushes etc. Of course there are some other artists too who sings about things instead of love. But I just want to take a moment and appreciate Melanie. Note 2: I am not saying she only sings about "things instead of love." Of course I know she sings about love too but my point is not that. My point is she also sings about things everyone afraid of talking or ignoring. She "*also*" sings about stuff other than love, which is so great. And I appreciate her for that. Thanks for taking the time to read this. It means a lot and I appreciate you for that.

"Feeling guilty for eating when you're hungry is like feeling for breathing when your lungs need oxygen. We've literally been taught to be ashamed or our basic human needs. Refuse to feel the shame. You are allowed to eat. " Can we appreciate the effort she puts into spreading these words real quick? No matter how much flaws you hold, or what you think are imperfections to yourself. Just remember there will always be at least one person out there who loves you for those so called flaws, and they see them as unique traits that make yourself YOU. Please let these words have an impact on you or perhaps share these words

"Your body is imperfectly perfect, everyone wants what the other one's working" This line hits hard...

“YOUR BODY IS IMPERFECTLY PERFECT!” “THE WAY YOU LOOK IS NOT AN ISSUE” You are beautiful/handsome! You matter and let no one tell you any different! 💜

"Your body is imperfectly perfect" Those lyrics really hit me

I JUST REALIZED (yes, just now) THAT THEY SWAPPED EYES SO THE GIRL CAN SEE HERSELF FROM ANOTHER PERSON'S EYES THAT'S SO BRILLIANT

I love how she didn't curse even ONCE in orange juice, it's a very nice detail with people who have eating disorders and weight insecurity.

I really appreciate how in these videos she usually saves the person being abused/having the mental illness/ whatever. It's like she's comforting her listeners in a way

Melanie said one thing : “ur bodies don’t define u they are just temporary “ note it

there needs to be more people just like melanie martinez because- 1. melanie isn't a judging person 2. she knows that everyone should be treated equally 3. shes a kind person

i have bulimia (the eating disorder this song is talking about) and it’s absolutely soul crushing. im still not in recovery but i’m working on it. beautiful song.

"your body is imperfectly perfect, everyone wants what the other one's working." 🧡🖤

"The way you look is not an issue" Underrated line but has alot of meanings

what an artist. melanie is literally changing the history of the music industry, in addition to telling the story of cry baby, with just one movie she managed to seriously portray subjects like bulimia, harassment, objectification of celebrities, pedophilia, psychological torture, transphobia, racism, verbal and physical aggression, psychological harassment, self-esteem problems and it doesn't end there, but the list is long. this woman is doing something never seen before, the representational space she is slowly conquering makes me feel comforted. she deserves the world.

I'm 15, and I'm currently struggling/recovering from bulimia. I kept trying to fix myself, but found nothing. That was until I heard this song. The message is absolutely beautiful, and it's portrayed so realistically. This helped me start to fix myself a bit, and I am now slowly recovering from it. Thank you so very much, Melanie.

We needed a song like that! Nobody ever talks about bulimia and the way she did it ... that's why she's my favorite singer!

This song is so underrated. And it sends one of the most important messages in the album.

melanie talks about the real things we all need in our life not just some stupid crush. she’s the real talk we all need.

Unpopular opinion: this hairstyle on melanie is honestly stunning

“Your body is imperfectly perfect, everyone wants what the others ones working”. - That felt so nice to hear 😭❤️✨

why the fuck isn't Melanie Martinez's music on every single radio her songs are so good and teach really good morals

0% Curse words 0% NSFW 0,5% Gore 100% True and motivating facts.

"You turn oranges to orange juice" is such a metaphorically beautiful line. Love you melanie 🧡

"wanna know something I learned about bodies?" "they don't define us. we aren't our bodies, ther'ye just temporary." "I know it seems impossible but, don't expect shallow people to love you! they don't even have the capacity to see how amazing you are. and, we all gotta love ourselves without the approval of others." "everyone is deserving of love. everyone." 🎀💗🎀

I have probably said this 5,000,000 times: the choreography for this song is absolutely gorgeous. It is probably the best in the whole movie. It looks like a renaissance painting and she NEEDS to make a video for the full choreography.

22 yo male here. I suffered bulimia when I was 19. My worst and most memorable experience was when I just went to go see a movie with my friends. We later went to Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen. My friend offered to pay for me because I didn't have a job. I got the sirloin steak, chicken tenders with corn and fries. It was delicious, and after a fun half hour of chatting, we went home. My friend dropped me off, and when I went inside, I immediately ran into the bathroom with a sense of guilt from eating all that food. I threw up all the food into the toilet, and sat there crying because it was so painful. I wasn't crying, my body was, from the lack of substance and the torture my mind was putting me through. Later that year I became a personal trainer, and I've learned so much. I chose to help others with their body, and help them achieve their goal, and make sure they aren't alone. Edit: i forgot i posted this, you are all so sweet and kind. I've been doing a whole lot better and I've come to peace with myself. I still have lots of stretch marks from the rapid and severe weight loss, but I've come to terms with it as a piece of my past 💗💟💙

As a girl with an eating disorder, i can confirm that this is by far one of the best songs out there, and sends an amazing message about it.🍊✨️

Remember: "Your body is imperfectly perfect"

*"Wanna know something I've learned about bodies? They don't define us, We aren't our bodies. They're just temporary."* *-Melanie Martinez 2019-2020*

Me: I don’t like my body Mel: *throwing oranges at me* YOUR BODY IS IMPERFECTLY PERFECT

This is why I fucking love Melanie, she writes songs about meaningful thing

People think Melanies crazy, but I want to say one thing. She's not crazy or mental like people think. And she didn't have a bad childhood. Melanie is not cry baby. Melanie portrays cry baby as a girl who faces real world problems from a child's perspective. This doesn't make cry baby crazy either. What I'm trying to say is Melanie uses crybaby and music to talk about serious issues. Plus her music videos and lyrics have so much meaning, and what most people get off from it is that melanies some creepy mental person, but those people are naive not to see the true meaning of her songs. By the way I know this is from the k through 12 album, but most of the stuff I say still applies to this song, plus I just felt like I needed to get that out there.

The most underrated song so far This is pure gold and made me cry even when I don't have an eating disorder But Mel has helped me to love myself a little bit more every day How I wish celebrities used their fame for a good cause like she does

Everyone: Melanie Martinez is weird she thinks alot of killing Me:yeah but she accepts everyone ether your gay, straight, black, white, brown, skinny or fat she will still support you and love who you truly are

How relatable you want the video and song to be? Melanie: Yes

I can't believe that it was five years already since it was released... Time flies too fast, really...

"Wanna know something about bodies? They don't define us. We aren't our bodies" That line changed my life lmao

Yes, Melanie did a song talking about bulimia. She is just so perfect and deserve the world!

Kelly: **chucks oranges down into Fleur's head** Melanie: "So you have chosen death..."

I have the sentence "your body is imperfectly perfect" in my mirror so everytime I look at myself I remember Melanie and a smile appears in my face ❤️‍🩹

I love how all the girls have different body shapes and races while dancing with Melanie in the field

Mrs. Potato head: You turn potatoes into french fries. Orange juice: You turn oranges into orange juice

Reasons why I love Melanie: She makes relatable songs She puts effort in every music video She doesn’t want anyone to get hurt She always speaks facts in her music videos She loves her fans I just love you so much Melanie! 🥺❤️

This Song HURRRRRRRTSSSSS....I am a 44 year old male and this song really hits me everytime...that poor girl, parents who dont get it, a school that is as cold as wintr, OMG...i just wanna reach in this video and hug this girl so bad....I have always been aware of how difficult it can be for female teens when i was a teen or women period!!...i think she is a very BRAVE ARTIST to even approach this the way she did...the bit with the eyes.... OMGGGGGGG I WANNA JUST YELLL STOP IT!!!!!

The scene where crybaby gave the girl her eyes so she could see her beauty from someone else’s perspective was just really beautiful to me it made me tear up.

Me: why am I so fat? Melanie:" the way you look is not an issue " Me: thanks Melanie

i’m so glad melanie made this. i’m currently in the re-feeding process of anorexia and it sUcKs. i think that e.ds need more attention since they are very life threatening. no matter your size or the numbers on the scale, you’re imperfectly perfect. there’s only one you, so be the craziest and loudest version of you ever. let the world know your name and that you won’t let anything or anyone stop you

Melanie is alive! She come from the dead and with new music!🍄🧚‍♀️✨

"Ooh, I wish I could give you my set of eyes 'Cause I know your eyes ain't working, mmm I wish I could tell you that you're fine, so fine But you will find that disconcerting" This touched my heart.. God I love Melanie Martinez. 🍊

One thing I actually really admire about this video is that in the scenes when the girls are dancing outside, there are girls of all different skin tones and body types further proving the point of this song.

Me: i've been feeling so insecure lately..i feel so unconfident Melanie: *wait- thats illegal.*

"the way you look is not an issue" you are perfect the way you are. you matter, dont let anyone get to you❤❤

I like how Melanie has a strong message attached to all her songs. Big fan here from India. Would love to make a song with you one day!!

I like how the orange and black looks in Melanie's hair me and my sister was like that look real nice

Melanie Martinez is probably the exact opposite of so many of today’s “idols” but in a good way. Melanie doesn’t beat around the bush and speaks FACTS. She was my greatest inspiration growing up and is still someone I look up to.

Like Melanie said “your body is from perfect to perfect” and “the way you look is not an issue” I love my girl so much 💓

Love this young lady. Her honesty and acceptance is so beautiful. I had eating disorders for over 15yrs. My friends even staged getting help from my family. But my mother was 1 to hand me the tissue and scale. She told my friends that women have to do what we have to sometimes to not be fat. I truly wish no one ever experiences eating disorders, if you do I hope you have support & help. I'm 5'8" and 190lbs with my mother still passively aggressively trying to get me to lose weight. Please love yourself and know we are all perfectly imperfect ❤😊.

I love how the girls in the field dancing with her are all different races and body types

Despite this song being kinda sad, it actually makes me really happy when I hear it! when I went to see Melanie in Manchester, she threw orange peel in my direction and it hit my shoulder and after that it smelt like oranges and that’s the first time I’ve ever been to a concert that’s given me a scent to help me remember ? If that makes sense Especially bc before she threw it, everyone in my section smelt so sweaty (we was in standing) and it’s like she literally blessed us with the smell of fruit we stan

"The way you look is not an issue." This line made me so confident more ngl.

For people who have eating disorders think they are fat and they are insucure. And when the girls in the field pull down her dress to say love yourself and thats why they hugged Melanie. And she ran away because she doesn't deserve it. I don't know. It's something I have been saying to myself.

“The way you look is not an issue.” Remember that.❤️

As a person with an eating disorder this hits so close to home

That orange was having the best time of its life

*I know this isn't the point, but melanie looks really pretty with orange hair-* Edit 1: i- ty for the likes 😌💞

I just figured out something in the field, Mel was wearing the skirt because she is insecure about her body and the girls pulling down her skirt were try to get her to see that she is beautiful and when she ran away it was because she was embarrassed and thats just a little theory i have about the meaning of this song. its about people’s body insecurities and why some people have anorexia and other eating disorders. Its because they are insecure about there bodys. Btw: Love u Mel!! ❤️

Honestly I’m absolutely overweight but her quote: Wanna know something about bodies They don’t define us They’re temporary Really made me comforted, I honestly feel like it’s a quote we all need to remember Edit: HOLY- THANKS FOR THE LIKES! 👀

I just noticed: As Crybaby goes through K12, she wears more makeup. Like in Class Fight, Wheels on the bus, The Principal she doesn't wear makeup. But in Lunchbox Friends, Orange Juice, and the rest of the Album, she does! (Meaning she's getting older)❤

Am i the only one who thinks they should have included the conversation they had together after the song? The "Wanna know what I learned about bodies?" conversation they had. I think that it is really powerfull and this music video would have greater impact.

Me: I'm not good enough. I'm ugly, fat, stupid,and- Melanie: NOT ON MY WATCH

Me: I hate my body ;~; Melanie: Hold my eyes

I first found Melanie from k12 during the pandemic and I haven’t seen life the same since then. Such amazing experience, I put my sisters on as well

I love how she added so many body types and races

i love how diverse she’s made this video, eating disorders can come in so many different shapes and sizes. the video really shows that people can still be struggling with their eating and we should still be concerned and there to help whether a persons a size 0 or 16.

I love how she has actors who are all different races, body types

"The way you look is not an issue." thank you melanie

Who else thinks her hair looks hella good with the orange.

me: am not attractive :( melanie: yourbodyisimperfectlyperfect

Meaning of the song Orange Juice 🍊 Orange Juice is a song about the bulimic character in K-12, Fleur, which is also a character in Kelly's group. The very main reason she has Bulimia because Kelly forces her to get the "ideal body" by making her purge after eating. This song also refers to a friend of Melanie that fights with Bulimia. 🎵"Oh, oh, stick it down your throat"🎵 This line refers to purging (vomiting your food after you ate, to avoid getting fat) which is a feature in Bulimia, the song's topic. The lines 🎵"now you're sitting in the cafeteria, shoving Clementines and orange bacteria, down your throat a dozen time or near yeah"🎵 refer to binge eating and then purging, just like the previous explanation. 🎵"Fooling those around of your Bulimia"🎵 Bulimics binge eat in front of their surroundings that makes them think nothing's wrong but manage to keep their purging as a secret, as they don't see them do it afterwards. 🎵"You turn oranges to orange juice, enter there then spit it out of you (ORANGE JUICE) 🎵 By the meaning you turn oranges into orange juice, you consume solid food and then purge (again, bulimic tendencies) it out and make it the "juice" in the song. (Bulimia is also called binge-purge eating disorder). 🎵"Your body is imperfectly perfect, everyone's wants the other one's working No orange juice"🎵 When Melanie wrote this, she meant that despite not having society's ideal body, the imperfections in some people's bodies make their imperfections something unique and special. Melanie explains in this pre-chorus that you must accept your body as the way it is, because if everyone wants somebody's body, they're gonna complain about what they have. 🎵"Please say that you won't continue, Ordering oranges off the menu Stuffing up your mouth with t-t-tissue"🎵 These lines refer again, to people with eating disorders (i.e. Bulimia, Anorexia). The lines mean that people with eating disorders sometimes eat inedible stuff such as cotton and tissues to feel more dubbed up, which is also called a "Cotton Ball Diet". Individuals which are a part of this diet will soak cotton balls into beverages which one of them is orange juice. The way Melanie wrote t-t-tissue in the lyrics imposes the sounds of sneezing, choking and coughing (on tissue/cotton ball, as previously mentioned). 🎵"The way you look is not an issue"🎵 People with Bulimia or any other related eating disorder are mostly dysmorphic and have a hard time noticing their actual weight. Melanie wrote this from a point of view of a surrounding telling someone that they are not fat, or look bad. In eating disorders (Ideal beauty type, "wanting to become thin") dysmorphia and low self esteem comes into play which means that those with eating disorders see their body differently than others. 🎵"Ooh, I wish I could give you my set of eyes 'Cause I know your eyes ain't working, mmm I wish I could tell you that you're fine, so fine But you will find that disconcerting"🎵 Very commonly, people with eating disorders most likely have low self-esteem and dysmorphia (as previously mentioned), meaning they do not see themselves the way others do. If you read it until here, thank you! It took me a long time to write this. 😌 Please, let me know if I got anything wrongfully. Some lines are missing because the meaning repeats itself over them. With all honesty, I think Orange Juice is the song with the deepest meaning in the album which created a huge impact on me that motivated me to write its whole meaning. 🍊 Have a good day! 🌸🍊

Currently going through the first stages of an ED, this song really hits hard

I wish more artists would sing/make songs like this. They all sing about love and heartbreak, but then Melanie is over here speaking the truth, being honest and being amazing. Love u forevs Mel. Keep on being u!

I suffer from eating disorders. For over maybe 10 years. I'm fighting against bulimia nervosa, and anorexia, both painful and definitly tiring. When I first heard this song, I didn't really know what to think about it. I was kind of disconcerted, as she tells it in the song. It slowly became one of my favourite songs of Melanie. It slowly became one of the reasons I'm still fighting against my ED now : Melanie is right, the way I look is not an issue, and eating should not be that bad to me. Thank you for this song, and for these lyrics that became a true mantra to me

I JUST FOUND OUT THAT THE BLUE BOY WAS TRANSGENDER AND FLEUR WAS ALSO TRANSGENDER STAN MELANIEEEE (also Mrs. Harper)

your body is imperfectly perfect, everyone wants what the other one's working." 🧡🖤

Someone: “No one can make a good song about oranges” Melanie:” hold my orange juice”

Me: i hate my body Melanie: *hold my orange*

i need to say something. i can relate to this song more than any other melanie song that she’s ever made..i struggle with bulimia and recently it’s gotten really bad and i’ve been in like a deep depression and this song started playing on spotify and i started crying. melanie has saved me with her music and i love her more than anything. 💜

me: I hate myself... Melanie: no,that ain’t happening in my country

I'm currently battling bulimia.lmagine my surprise when I got back from the washroom after purging and this was in my recommendation. I'm crying.

The funniest meme about K12 I saw was how it feels going from orange juice to detention It was someone crying in one picture then the next is someone putting on leather dominatrix clothing

Other songs: *talk about breakups and stuff to do with relationships* Melanie Martinez songs: *talks about the more important things in life*

"Your body is imperfectly perfect." -Melanie Martinez

The moment where they switch eyes hit me so hard. They both hate themselves but see each other as beautiful. When they switch eyes they get to both see each other’s true beauty for the first time. It gives me chills.

Can we all agree that melanie with orange and black hair is GORGEOUS

This has got to be my favorite song from Melanie! She's so talented, I love how all of ur songs have real serious meanings behind them and your also spreading awareness. Lysm Melanie! 💞

The fact that Melanie Martinez is considered as one of the most attractive women who ever stepped on Earth is so heartwarming She trully deserves it ♡
