  1. is this an April fools post LMFAO? Lana is definitely the best out of her contemporaries in terms of song writing well-atleast at her peak not so much now, and I don't get the lorde comparison with billie, billie is just what would of happened if avril grew up in the 2010s and listened to too much melanie martinez so time will tell if she can evolve as an artist and I pray she does.

    I for one think she has potential but I don't see her lasting if she does the same image and music next time around

     

    Yeah let me know when either one of those write lyrics as amazing as 'Off to the Races'.


  2. Collaborators could also mean sound engineers, people who do the mastering and mixing etc etc, it doesn't mean she has ghostwriters  :um2:  

     

    No, the comment I read very much implied Lana barely writes the songs at all. That she's just a front-woman for a whole team of 'Lana Del Rey' songwriters. This would be the most unbelievable musical swindle of all time, but I just can't fathom it. You can go back to 2007 and find Lizzy Grant songs and gigs that point to what she's doing now. Of course she got financial help to get her career off the ground, but without the talent and drive it would have fizzled out by 2012.


  3. Lana released a song with an instrumental equivalent of poetry night at the local high school, and the art kids RAN with it LMAO. Venice Bitch is beautiful asf, but after the crimson and clover adlibs and whatnot, there's nothing to praise as much as some of you do. Again, great song. But just bc she slapped her hands on an electric guitar for 7 minutes and moaned into the mic does NOT make it her magnum opus. Please shut up.

     

     

    Y'all can go ahead and quote me and call me whatever but I remain unbothered. :oprah3: have fun girlies

     

     

    Obviously quality of music is in the eye of the beholder, however to me VB has this atmosphere all the way through that 'does it for me'. To me this song is the ultimate representation of Lizzy Grant before she became Lana Del Rey.


  4. I read on some review article for 'Venice Bitch' a comment claiming Lana has 8 collaborators for every song. Yet on Wikipedia I read Jack Antonoff as the only co-writer. However I wonder if in this industry there are other writers who get royalty checks but do not get public credits and if this is an 'industry thing'. I definitely want to believe that Lana is mostly responsible for her songwriting.


  5. Just the way she starts the song with the piano, mellotron and harpsichord, then the opening lyric - 'you took my sadness out of context at the Mariners apartment complex, I aint no candle in the wind'... Damnit... if that doesn't say Songwriter of the Generation I don't know what does.


    do yall know what vaporware means

     

    Suddenly a lot of people are discovering it because of Muse's new LP, despite the fact that the music itself is not vaporwave just the cover art.


    Honestly, isn't SHE bored that she's not releasing anything? ...

     

    She's always writing new songs, working on some new concept, or writing poems. I doubt she is just sitting around being bored.
