    Maru I agree with everything, but this parts in fact is why I hate jesse, he was so bitter with every leak, because he might think we, the mortals, were getting his stuff,
    I know he has a lot of unreleased, and I know he hates when people ask him about it, but he keeps scrobbling them on last.fm .
     
    The forum became the source of all the leaks, but here we have mmm [i don't wanna use community cause it sounds really weird and creepy, but I can't think of something else] where we talk about Lana herself and her work, here I have the possibility to know new friends and add them to the ones I got from LDR.FM.

    EXACTLY.


     

    It's really what makes this particular community so great. I mean, we had it at LDR.FM to some extent, but its definitely not the same as here. Here, all members are on a level playing field, regardless of ~stature~ within the forum, so no talk of leaks or promises to release material gets in the way of discussing Lana and getting to know each other much better. I feel like I know the newer members here much better than I ever did at LDR.fm! :3 The content and dynamics of this forum are not unintentionally being shaped by unreleased material being hung over our heads.


     

    Here's a kitty gif!

    Another Lana-related confession: I do not miss lanadelrey.fm, and I think this forum is better than LDR.FM could ever be.
     
    When you create a forum with the intent of share unreleased material, it really stunts the growth of the site/community. Instead of discussion, you had pages upon pages of people saying, "Thank you!!" "Thanks for uploading this!" "I LOVE YOU"
     
    There were people begging/hinting for tracks to leak; becoming more and more entitled. When CG was absent from the forum, I felt more people wanted her back because of the "dry spell" of leaks, rather than genuinely missing a friend. That really bothered me.
     
    I also felt this odd power dynamic between administrators and regular forum members and I'm not quite too sure how to describe it. I may be the only one that felt this. It may be partially attributed to the fact they had a lot of unreleased material that none of us had, and it unintentionally coloured the dynamic between the two "groups" of members. As lovely, generous, accommodating, and good-natured as the admins were (or one of them, rather), I never quite felt as though they fit in; there was some odd sort of hierarchy, some sort of unattainability, like "us" and "them". I don't know. Was I the only one that felt this way?
     
    I think part of the unattainability stems from the fact that from the beginning, the Moderating Team there (idk why I always capitalize it, probably to feel important ) was set in stone, whereas here, members need to exhibit some sort of moderator-esque qualities and a willingness for the job for advancement. Essentially, the Moderating Team you have before you here comes directly from your community, and you are free to give your approval/disapproval of those nominating themselves. It could be you on that team if you wanted. Nothing like this was ever exhibited at LDR.fm, people you didn't really know (at least, at first) were running your community and you didn't really have a choice. It was odd, at least to me.
     
    Did anything I write make any sense? Does anyone agree/relate to it? I swear, I'm not crazy.

    I agree with this. From what we know of Lana, she is headstrong, a perfectionist/control-freak when it comes to art, and prioritizes her art and her intuition over the "business aspect", what's thought to be acceptable/"sell well", etc. And we've heard from multiple people, "You just can't tell her what to do", as well as from Lana that her label was giving her free reign to do whatever she wanted, and she was so appreciative for it.
     
    Do I like the lyrics? Nope, not one bit. Do I think that Lana believes that she is still delivering quality content and that she wanted to release this? Yes.

    I haven't listened to much of the new snippets-only American-and I'm completely fine with people's differing opinions and all, but reading this last bit really upset me. I think it's very disrespectful to Lana that you'd say she doesn't care about her music or the artistic value in it just because it didn't appeal to you. Maybe she is changing as a person, so she wrote in a different style or just wanted to experiment with sounds more on this rerelease? I don't know really, but it just makes me very sad to see you say she doesn't care because you don't like it. Personally, I think if she didn't care then she wouldn't have bothered making this EP, or having the Ride video be 10 minutes long. Idk, that actually really upset me so I'm just going to stop now.

    No one is saying anything about you having a different opinion, feel free to share it, after all this is a Lana FAN site and even though some of us are disappointed, that shouldn't have an effect on you. If you like something, you like something. If ya don't ya don't

    Fill Me Up is real, but it's not an album. It's just the title of her sex-tape

    I think that This is What Make Us Girls is about a rape [i imagine a video that way]

    Most of the negative opinions are unpopular, and most of the unpopular opinions are negative.
     
    Deal with it.
     
    EDIT: To word this in a less snarky way --> When most of the fanbase consists of people saying "OMG SHE'S FLAWLESS", negative opinions become unpopular opinions. Just because they're negative doesn't mean that they are not ~valid unpopular opinions/criticisms~ and not worth sharing, nor is it worth even pointing out.

    As i suspected would happen when this thread was first started, this has turned more into any negative opinions on anything Lana related, rather than unpopular opinions.
