With the M2M reunion in place on such a meaningful date, it may be the time for us to wonder what is next for M2M.
A new album with new songs?
With all the nostalgic memories from our youth, it might get easy to expect too much in terms of how we will like Marit's and Marion's new style. Both grew up a lot and changed. If they write new songs, it will also have to be a fusion of both their musical tastes.
What are your expectations? Will a new album, if it comes out, be a natural evolution from M2M's previous work? Is it even possible tp predict which overall theme they will go with?

I think that it would be great to have live performances and reunions with fans. I'd also like to have a re edition of both albums with some new songs or a box set containing a re edition of SOP and TBR, an acoustic album, b sides, new songs and a book with unrealased photos. I'm not sure about having a new album, but let's see what happens next.

I just saw that their Instagram is following the two of them, a fan account and Peter Zizzo who is a emmy and grammy winning songwritter  I think they might launch new stuff. I really hope so. |

When they say they're working on something "in the future", it could mean anything between 1 year and 25 years, haha. I don't know what to expect. |

Tbh I’d be surprised if they didn’t release a new album with new material. They’ve either written or co-written most of their material (M2M and solo). And I think reuniting after 2 decades is too significant to just re-release Shades of Purple and/or The Big Room. Though I think re-recording these albums would be awesome as well.
What I would like to see happen is:
- Recording a new album with new songs
- Having 2-3 re-records and putting those songs on the new album, or making an EP of 4-5 re-recorded songs from the previous two albums
- Releasing the 3 albums on vinyl. The Big Room really does deserve to be on vinyl
If they tour before a new album, I think it’d be pretty cool if they played solo songs as well as M2M songs, but together. I think they have a lot of their own material that would work well as a duo. Also, IMO “Not to Me” and “Love Left for Me” really do deserve to be played live.

I actually hope it will be different from what they did, although I know that might be a slightly unpopular opinion. But hear me out.  I grew up with M2M songs. But I grew up, and so did they. Don't get me wrong, I think their material aged incredibly well, but I can't help but look at it now and keep the timeframe and my age back then in mind. What I'd love to hear is some new material from them from their adult perspectives. Basically what they've been doing solo, but then combined. Into this new, unheard mix. Because I still think the two of them combined is something really special. I guess going into it with this expectation, it's going to be hard to disappoint me. I'm basically like: "Just do whatever you want, just combine your superpowers, please". So yeah, I'm ready, and I'm stoked! |

I think all of us who were there 20 years ago can relate to the fact that there is a lot of new life experiences. There are things they might sing about that wouldn't even have made sense to a 20 year old person. The music will also be more mature, I suppose. It's still completely out in the open how the musical style will turn out. One thing I'm fairly certain about is that it won't be "bubblegum pop" like Shades of purple. Other than that, it could be a mix of weird experimental instruments that Marit likes to use and rock anthems that Marion may be more known for, and overall, I guess it's very strong on guitar/piano and a fairly natural sound without a lot of artificial sounds. |

Omg, that sounds fantastic!!! Where can I sign up for that?! Hahaha. If that would be the case, it is "Shut up and take my money", basically  |

Lol weird and experimental is so Marit. It would be sooooo cool if their music grew up with us too. I really can't guess at this point, they got me curious enough I really just want to see what happens when these two put their heads together again |

I don't know is it me or anyone too, but since marit released her first solo album in 2006, i always think this is the 3rd album of m2m, then she make more, if a song could get me u, comming home then i dont wanna talk about it. Always felt that these songs are adult version of m2m, while marion, i think only the minutes has m2m vibes on it.

Always felt that these songs are adult version of m2m, while marion, i think only the minutes has m2m vibes on it. Marion's first 3 albums have a heavier, rock-inspired sound in comparison to M2M. Nevermore, which IMO is her best solo album and deserved to be released, toned it down somewhat with more strings (not entirely though, We Are Dead has the shredding guitars and dark lyrics). Found Someone could probably be an M2M song, I think it would work well as a duet. Songs from a Blackbird is softer, has fun pop songs; definitely presents a tonal shift in her discography). I'd even go so far to say that Songs from a Blackbird and When the Morning Comes are sister albums, released around the same time and having some elements/qualities of M2M. Marit has experimented with different sounds but tbh I've always listened to her solo music with the feeling that The Big Room was tucked away somewhere in the inspiration for the lyrics and melodies. That said, Marion's more recent albums post-2010 or so definitely have more acoustic-driven pop songs. While their solo songs differed after the breakup, I think their more recent releases interestingly have a lot of the same, or similar, qualities. |
