Hundred Dollar Bill

No, just in general.

Tired of the US hate honestly. Keep it to yourself.

YAYO HAS 50 VOTES.... wait.. and.. buRNING DESIRE HAS 24?!?!? uGH That's not a good reason to dislike it. That doesn't mean it's a bad song. This is a refreshing comment in a sea of bullshit. How so? I want in.

Raise my children. No but really, if Lucky Ones is your least favorite song, you're obviously deaf.

True! From what I've seen/heard of Lana's music & music videos though, I can get a vague idea (my own idea of her idea, i guess.. ha maybe i should just stop now sorry [not even gonna close the parenthesis]

i'm ok with this

no but i know who it was about and why so

Can we not compare Lana to Rihanna? Thanks. EW. No thank you. BTD was kind of a mess. I'd like something fresh & not boxed into one sound, please. nOOOOO please god. This is exactly what ruined the beauty that could have been Body Electric. I don't want another amazingly performed new song on tour to end up becoming a mess in the studio. oH MY GOD HAVE WE NOT GOTTEN OVER THIS, IT WAS NOT ABOUT LANA. FOR CHRIST'S SAKE. Yes, thank you. You've restored my faith in this thread. No, not like Body Electric. Anything but that. Anyway, now that I've finished staying true to my "friendliest member" reputation, let me just oH MY GOD BLACK BEAUTY IS SUCH A COOL TITLE AND IT SOUNDS REALLY SEXY LIKE I'M SUPER EXCITED SHE BETTER STICK WITH THE WESTERN FEEL TO THE STRIPPED DOWN SONGS, I WANT SEXY WESTERN SALOON WASTELAND HORSEBACK RIDING DUELING MUSTACHING SPURRING COWBOYING GOODNESS. ALSo for everyone else, I will always be happy for new Lana music. I don't care how long or short of a time it's been since the last release (although I don't really listen to Paradise that much anymore, so sooner would be better than later).

I completely disagree. Her lyrics are great IMO, much more well written and emotional than lots of other pop women out there today. What makes you think her songwriting is what keeps her from rising to the top? I just find it really hard to understand that. I'm gonna list some of her great lyrical moments in a spoiler below just to appease myself. I personally believe that the one thing actually holding her back is her style. I know she's only put out two albums, but they're very different in style and that's an off-putter for people sometimes. I don't think she's found the best sound for herself that will sell as well as it deserves. I love the style of TFJ, but it's not as commercial as EH. At the same time though, while EH is very commercial, it doesn't stand out sonically compared to other top artists right now. I know your post is old but it's been bothering me since I read it. I really think she's a great lyricist and I want her to go as far as she deserves, but I don't think the EH sound is going to get her that kind of positive popularity. It's kind of a boring album compared to TFJ honestly. It doesn't have longevity and that's an important thing to have.

one that is very tumblr-like.

I definitely think Priscilla, in her prime, is (was?) prettier than Lana. She has such a mystifying look about her. In my opinion, Priscilla (is??!??!?) was one of the most beautiful women of her time. I also think it's really awesome that she is a Gemini like Lana (and myself ). I know we're all Lana stans but I don't see how someone can think Lana is prettier than Priscilla tbh.

So I've taken another step into my journey of The Family Jewels. The first song that stuck with me was Mowgli's Road. I thought for a long time that it'd be the only one from that album that I'd like, because upon the first listen of the album, I was extremely bored and uninterested. I don't know why, but I just didn't get it, I guess. That was a long time ago. Then, about a week or so ago, I came across I Am Not a Robot and the amazing Starsmith 24 Carat Remix of it. I was floored! I decided that I'd let the album come to me one song at a time, and I've just found the third song I love. :flutter: Rootless is wonderful.

She's already named her influences. Britney Spears, Eminem, other artists I don't remember.. heh.

this isn't tumblr om G my reaction to everything

I just tried to unflag him as a spammer and I don't think I can, actually. Oh well.

It would have stopped by itself, really? Have you not been reading through this thread? Oh yeah, I was definitely the one causing drama, look at all my slanderous / instigative posts towards another memb- Oh wait. That didn't happen. I am aware that CC was being rude, but it was defensive. If she had instigated the fight then she'd be the one receiving the consequences. She didn't, though, so there would be no justice in post-restricting her. She doesn't start fights with other members. The same cannot be said about Foolish. Honestly, by dragging this out when it's been resolved, you are making drama at this point. This is the last time I'll be responding to anything relating the argument in this thread. Thank you.

Whenever I or another mod thinks he should be able to post again, we can just unflag him as a spammer. Thank you. It's okay, I can get like that too when people are rude. I'm sorry I didn't stop it sooner, I just got home from school and saw he was still being an ass so yeah.

Yes, and there is a difference between discussing something and being rude. You know what you're doing though, so I don't need to say anything else about it. You probably think we can't handle being "dragged" or whatever, when in reality, I along with almost every other member on this forum just want this to be a nice place for quality discussion. I'm tired of negativity. See, Foolish? Here's an opinion similar to yours that isn't rude! Amazing, right?! Thank you, I feel the same. I feel like shit like this is why I scare away new members but whatever, he was being a dick to you and that's not cool.

Okay, you're done. Goodnight.

I don't want you to think you can't express your opinion here. No one is going to attack you for that. But if you're rude about it then it's going to upset people and you'll most likely get called out for it.

Is this shade towards me.

My opinion? Lol no, I'm sure you can see that the people liking my posts agreed with what I had to say; you are the only one here that doesn't think you're being rude. If you actually think you're not being rude then you're delusional, although I assume you're arguing because you like making people angry. Keep it up and your posting privileges will be revoked.

No, this forum isn't a place where we need to harbor negativity and let people be rude to each other. There's a difference between playful arguing, actual arguing, and discussing things. Foolish is being disrespectul. If you enjoy watching people argue then go watch reality television.

It absolutely isn't, but it's also not a forum for disrespectful people to start arguments when someone disagrees with them. So because her style has changed and you don't like it means that she doesn't care anymore? Wow, I wasn't aware the world revolved around you. Speaking for everyone that's ever disagreed with you, I'm so sorry. Maybe they'll learn their place one day, right? You can get "(.....)" out of here if you think it's okay to come into this forum and start disrespecting members that disagree with your rudely worded opinions. Yes, I also prefer her previous look, but I think she looks great now. CC isn't the only one offended here, and it has nothing to do with personal issues. You're just being a prick, plain and simple. Do not discuss if you can't give your opinions in a respectful manner.

I always miss all of the good discussions.
