I love this song so much. Has some emotions Lana doesn't really show much in most of her songs. Sounds tender, honest like really from the heart. Look how cheesy my description is...hahaha...but is what I feel when I hear it

In Body Eletric I think Lana talks about 2 specific moments in her life. I think the song is related to K. The way Lana changes who her daddy, mother and bestest friends is I think is a way to mark those 2 moments.
Elvis is my daddy,
Marilyn’s my mother,
Jesus is my bestest friend
We don’t need nobody,
‘Cause we got each other,
Or at least I pretend
We get down every Friday night,
Dancin’ and grindin’ in the pale moonlight
Grand Ole Opry, we're feelin’ alright,
Mary prays the rosary for my broken mind
You see that she changes later on who is her daddy, mother and bestest friend. At first Jesus is her bestest friend and they got each other or at least she pretends. Mary is the mother of Jesus. Lana said that she has contact with the mother of the man she sings about (in this case I think is K). Grand Ole Opry is a show that is broadcasted every friday night. Maybe they use to listen to the show together and now every friday night she goes out and pretends K is still here. Here she is more young and innocent listening to Elvis and dressing like Marylin
I’m on fire, baby I'm on fire
Whitman is my daddy,
Monaco’s my mother,
Diamonds are my bestest friend.
Elvis, Marilyn and Jesus mark a previous period. Later her her daddy becomes Whitman, Monaco as a Mother and diamonds as bestest friend. I think is a way to mark time in the sense she had changed and time passess as life goes on. Is also a sign of somewhat loneliness and emptiness but also more money. Diamonds and Monaco represent opulence but also emptyness. Is a place and a thing. Whitman as father which is a poet that also talks a lot about death. Lana mentioned him several times and quoted hiis poem a child in the grass in her old missdaytona twitter account. I think the time fits with what she is talking in Body Eletric and also fits the music.
Quote from Whitman poem child in the grass:
Suicide’s her father,
Opulence is the end
We get down every Friday night,
Dancing and grinding in the pale moonlight
Grand Ole Opry
We're feelin’ alright,
Mary prays the rosary for my broken mind
This is the trick part to me. I don't personaly think Lana ever tried to kill herself. It takes a lot of desperation to take your own life. As much as she suffers I don't see her doing it. The other thing is she is somewhat religious and obssessed with heaven. People who commit suicide in most religions don't get to heaven. To me the reference as suicide is a way to say she was desperate. You have many ways to use suicide as a figure of speech or K has commited suicide because of the life style he chose for himself and his suicide is the father, the reason, why she is alone. Opulence is the end is also interesting since her mother is now monaco and her bestest friend are diamonds. In the end she ended up with many things but whithout what she really wanted that was k.
My clothes still smell like you,
All the photographs say you're still young
I pretend I’m not hurt and go about the world like I’m having fun
We get crazy every Friday night,
Drop it like it’s hot in the pale moonlight
Grand Ole Opry
feeling alright,
Mary's swaying softly to her heart's delight
One of the things about diying young is that you never grow old. Is a very strange thing specially when you look at pictures. I guess that is what Lana is talking about since looking to pictures of someone who you lost and than looking at yourself in the mirror you really see how time has passed even if that person is pretty alive in your memories and in your head. In your head time stands still but in reality years has gonne by. I think here she makes that reference that her clothes still smell like him and the pictures shows her he is still young and in her mind she pretends they got each other.

Lily Allen
I got a BRIT Award recently. And that was something four years ago that I would have died for. But when I finally got that award it meant absolutely nothing to me. Because I now know that The BRIT Awards is a TV show. Record company executives make deals with a TV channel and the producers about who wins what award in exchange for performance time. So its just become a non-award, like thank you for this.'
Let's discuss the marvelous Lily fucking Allen. I was obsessed with Lily from 2008 to 2011. IMO Lily is everything you wish in a pop artist: talented, has a huge mouth in which she usually puts her feet in, controversy, likeable, terrible fashion sense, Twitter addict and a drunk hot mess back in the day. These mommy days of hers took away one of my favs but it's all good, Lily is happy and I'm happy for her.
I love both albuns, Alright Still and It's Not Me It's You, but INMIY is my fav no doubt. I used to play it no stop and is hard to find an album that you can listen to all songs without wanting to skip a song or 2 or 5. In my humble opinion she is one of the best songwriters out there. So many goodies on her on INMIY that is hard to pick favorites. Some of my LA addictions: Fuck You, 22, Everyone is at It, LDN, Alfie, It's Not Fair, Little Things, Everybody is Changing, Whod have Known, The Fear.....
Who would write a music titled Fuck You thinking about ex US President George Bush if not Lily?? Gotta Love her

I am usually not easily impress by things people do but there is something about people wishing something like HIV, death or cancer to someone else that shocks me. I hope no one ever throws those terrible wishes at you tbh. Ever. Fuck off really.

cyberbunnyboops liked a post in a topic by Viva in Lana Del Rey is back in the studio.
I have ADD and is not my species fault that most music playing in the radio is shit (jk)
I think the thing is we have access to countless artists and new material all the time. You can find a new band/ artist every day in youtube if you look for it. There for we end up wanting new things all the time. And new and old is a confusing process when you call an album from 4 years ago old material.

creditcardromancer liked a post in a topic by Viva in Dream Lana Collaboration Thread
I know Lana always dodge the collaboration question but is something I wanted 2 see (listen actually...). I love colalborations...
-Marina & the Diamonds- I think Marina's up beat energy and big voice would be a good mix
-Emimen - he has some masterpieces and I would love to see Lana contribute with some verses and hooks. Also I think Lana would love it since she calls him a "genius"
-Kanye West - I think mister big ego could make some incredible songs along side Lanas sultry voice
I would also say Elvis but well he is kind of dead....

Sorry but even if I know that what you are saying is true is just gross to even think about it. I almost puked from the middle to the end of your post. And yes I think is just wrong and disgusting pedophilia and incest. I am a open minded person but that is just gross and wrong in so many levels that I don't even gonna start talking about them.

Lana is a giving person. She made those titles to give Lorde material for her new album. Until now Lorde has this titles:
WC - The L.A Favelas
Old Money - New Poor
Money, Power, Glory - Food Stamps, Discount & 1$ Shop

I think Lana's bleached blond hair makes her look more haggard. My brother once lost a football bet and had to bleache his hair. He looked just like a slum cocaine dealer for a week.

Sighs of a Torn Soul liked a post in a topic by Viva in Lana's drug use/trailer park era
I think when you are really drunk or high to the point your soul leaves your body and you are there but not there you try whatever. Maybe she tried and did for a couple times meth, heroin or/and crack. But not really an addict. Like some already mentioned those drugs make you look like you were hit by a truck after a while. Lana is far away from a truck accident. Well maybe she has very strong constituitions and good genes but the rule is doing such drugs really fucks you up inside and outside. Coke I don't know. A few people do coke for years and are able to control it somehow while most people get addicted and fucked up faster. I guess genetics play a big part when the subject is addiction. Like the difference from being a user and becoming an addict. What I find more intriguing as some also already mentioned is the timeline. If she was making a meth party in her tralier in 2007 and was living in the trailer park from 07 to 09 how was she able to be in London in 08?? Lana's timeline is a grey zone to me. Well maybe she can teleport herself around the globe. Maybe she is the evolution we all are waiting for. Clean and drugged at the same time. She says she is clean over 7 years which makes the timeline even more sketchy. Maybe Lizzy is her twin and she is hidden in a basement at papa's Grant house singing Yayo to herself.

Gaga is not a uncultured fuck like most pop stars who barelly knows how to write their own names. She is a parir with Lana on that matter which makes me wanna make a point: Yes education makes a difference LOL. Like Gaga or not like Gaga ( I don't) she can give a decent interview (when she wants it and when her ego is taking a vacation somewhere sunny), talk about subjects other than music. If you ask me she is even more outspoken and articulated than Lana.
When Gaga wants too ,which is almost never, she can be interesting because she got herself the trouble to educate her johnny walker brain. Her songs and outfits can be interesting when she wants too and actually puts effort on it.
I dislike Gaga because her lyrics are crap these days. Her speech is beyond delusional and her ego is the size of planet earth. All that doesn't take away her talent tho she is just not using her talent. IMO these days she is lazy with her bacon which is music. The rest ( fame, outfits, interviews, production and all the crap) took the center of her world and music got into second plan.
Gaga is not a sell out IMO she is a smart business women that saw a hole in the market and reinvented herself to fill that hole. The Fame Monster was a good album. Born This way is embarrassing if you take in consideration that Gaga is one of the few pop artists out there that is a actual musician. One of the few that can put melodies to her own songs, play instruments and if she wants actually she can produce herself. Also she writes her own crapy songs but at least she writes them
Same with Lana. She is not as complete as a musician as Gaga but MY FUCKING GOD Lana does know how to write songs, damn good songs. She is also good with visuals, Lana is a good visual artist. That makes a difference IMO. Lana is a incredible song writer. Look at how many leaks we have besides AKA, Sirens and BTD and Paradise albuns. Lana is not even 30 and has over what 250 songs out there if you put all in the same trunck?? So many good songs guys incredible.
I don't think Gaga whines at all compared to Lana. She is a ego maniac but not a cry baby at all. The I was bullied is a way to connect with the audience that are orphans of Michael Jackson. Because imo she got the MJ type of fans not Madonnas LOL. Lana on the other hand...cries a river every single interview.
I can't care less for artpop because imo is going to be shit. But I am looking for to hear her jazz album which I think has good chances to be really good.

Me neither. IMO was a basic (pretty cool) shade. Thats all LOL. I can see Gaga laughing at this while no one is watching tbh.
