this thread...god a nightmare literally a nightmare..

time pulling and time pushing
Are both perhaps pushing and pulling in time future
And time hauling contained in time shoving
If all Burnt Norton loopings are eternally present
All lana selfies are unredeemable
What might have been is an abstraction
Remaining a perpetual possibility
Only in a world of screaming twinks
What might have been and what has been
Point to one end of the barricade, which is the one lana never goes to
Cherry Adlibs echo in the memory
Down the selfies which we did not take
Towards the camera app we never opened
Into the Hollywood sign
 
 
​i have too much time in my hands..

see if a car has hit something in the road.

it'll just be 25 tracks of 'recorded this when I was 14, no idea where u got it xxxx'

If she doesn't re-record 'Joshy and I' then I'm gonna sue.

Loved your entire post. That is a very interesting theory. Although given Lana's past songs and videos, it's hard not to think about a more sinister meaning. But I'd prefer your interpretation.

I absolutely loved it-- to me, this perfectly embodies Lana's concept of "retro sensibility, with a futuristic flair." Both the more literal callbacks (Lana's outfit, the TV performance-esque setup at the beginning, plus backup dancers) and the more subtle (the sweetness and simplicity, the peace sign imagery) really hearken back to the sixties, while keeping a grip on Lana's current message of hope and stability in today's world. 
 
I also appreciated the connecting sequence to Love-- my theory, like others that've posted here, is that the Love video is what's taking place in her mind as she's performing in the LFL video, ostensibly for TV. I think she and Abel represent almost god-like characters (I don't feel that they're dead, necessarily), and their jump off the sign is not suicide, but descending "down to Earth" to bring their message to the youth of America. It's almost a Ziggy Stardust-type setup, imo-- an alien/supernatural singer comes to Earth to spread a message of peace and love to a troubled and receptive group of young people. I really like the concept, and I'm enjoying seeing how the various themes Lana's presented thus far (1960s, witchcraft, peace/love, space) are tying together. 
 
All in all, I think it's a very lovely treatment, and it's really made me appreciate the song and era more. I'm finally, officially excited for what's to come!
 
(also, I think it's too common for people today to claim things are "cringey" just because they're whimsical, silly, or fun-- you're welcome to your opinion, but I find little touches like the ribbon boat to be really cute. There's nothing wrong with having a little bit of wonder, and nothing wrong with Lana doing something lighthearted and sweet, even if it borders on childish, imo. We could all use some lightening up, I think )

I think her living on the H of the obvious Hollywood sign is like living in her own bubble, disconnected from the world.
Then at the end of the song, she decides to go down to the real world, spreading love and hope- hoping for a world peace- the perfect world in other words.

WHEW that choreography! Lemme start rehearsing now

G-EASY AND SELENA WAS FOUND DEAD

Me as soon as the weeknd appeared

i don't think she's only just finished the album, she said recently something along the lines of how it'd be pointless for her to not talk about what's happening in the world rn. The LFL trailer references the songs and in that she talks about wondering what her contribution would be and in CWIMM she talks about her contribution being as small as hoping. I feel like this won't be on standard LFL as it's done, but she wrote a song she liked in the moment and it was relevant to the times and she wanted to share how she feels to the world, considering music is her own personal outlet. I don't think this song is to be the kind of song Love/LFL is, not a single, just a standalone/deluxe track added last minute (hence the messy production) to express and reflect on the times. i don't think this will be reflective of the album sound or should be treated as such

I'm literally shocked, I'm on the verge of crying. I can't believe Lana would release something this terrible. Someone must be able to do something, this is a tragedy. Has she totally lost it??? I'm having an anne-meltdown but for all the wrong reasons. There's literally nothing redeeming about this song. 

The production sounds like a bad fan-art remix

wow thats incredible
she also plays jimmy neutrons mom 

Lorde: "that green light, I want it!!!!!!!!!"
Lana: "green lights forever"
 
Lana gets all the green lights Lorde begs for     
 
I am not  a Lorde hater she's one of my favs

Um NO bitch, this is a happy song. Shes having the time of her life and isn't sad anymore
Charlotte XBOX could never compare to Lana. Get OUT demon

Me listening to Lust for Life tbh
 

from somebody with as much musical and artistic experience as her i would have expected better lyrics than "take off take off take off your clothes" eight times, but slay i guess

take off all ur clothes

GREEN LIGHTS FOREVER. LORDE IS SHOOK AND DECEASED 

Love was found dead in a ditch. This is amazing. The "take off take off all your clothes" part is fucking heaven
PUT IT ON ITUNES NOW PLEASE
