LifeHack #666: If you don't like a song from an album there are two options: go to the next song or just delete it from your library. -

The fact that Lana is posting videos of her playing and singing songs from the new album makes my diabetic body tremble. #GenerousQueen

Stop getting off-topic Now I know why Lana said that feminism is just not an interesting concept. -

How many versions of 'Children of the Bad Revolution' are there and who produced each? Thanks in advance. -

I have the feeling that 'Cherry' is in the same situation as 'Body Electric' when Lana performed it for the first time at El Rey Theater on June 5, 2012, and we did not hear the studio version until 'Paradise' was released on November 13. Or am I forgetting something? -

Lana's muse must have knocked on the door many times during this album because she's literally overflowing with inspiration. -

Tomorrow Never Came - It’s called ‘Tomorrow Never Came’. I don’t know if you’ve ever felt this way, but when I wrote it I felt like it wasn’t really for me. I kept on thinking about who this song was for or who could do it with me, and then I realised that he would be a good person. I didn’t know if I should ask him because I actually have a line in it where I say, ‘I wish we could go back to your country house and put on the radio and listen to our favourite song by Lennon and Yoko.’ I didn’t want him to think I was asking him because I was namechecking them. Actually, I had listened to his records over the years and I did think it was his vibe, so I played it for him and he liked it. He rewrote his verse and had extensive notes, down to the mix. And that was the last thing I did, decision-wise. I haven’t mixed the record, but the fact that ‘Love’ just came out and Sean kind of finished up the record, it felt very meant-to-be. Because that whole concept of peace and love really is in his veins and in his family. God Bless America - I wrote God Bless America before the Women’s Marches sprung up, but I could tell they were going to happen. As soon as the election was over, I knew that was going happen. People were way more vocal and more active on social media and in real life, so I realised a lot of women were saying out loud that they needed support and they were nervous about some of the bills that might get passed that would directly affect them. So yes, it’s a direct response in anticipation of what I thought would happen, and what did happen. The change out there in the world has indeed been pretty seismic. Accordingly, you have my personal favorite track on the record, “God Bless America,” an unbridled spanker of a song that’s title refrain is followed by, “And all the beautiful women in it”—that’s instantly echoing through your melon and one in which Del Rey remarks, “Yeah, I went there.” She describes the song, of which Mawson shared earlier his reluctance to release as a single, given the tendency of Del Rey to net the mentioned public polarization, “It has some strong messaging,” she says nodding. “Some iconography, with Lady Liberty, fire escapes and the streets, and I do get a little New York feel when I listen back to it.” I tell her the song feels grandiose in production, anthemic in verse… very New York in fact, a sparkling pile of empire and accomplishment. And while New York (and its banks) have churned out the free world leader and a boys club not so concerned about everyone therein being blessed, moreover the “beautiful women in it”—reminding us that grandiosity has its pitfalls—“God Bless America” could easily ascend the ladder as a 2017 rally cry. When The World Was At War We Kept Dancing - Well, I have a song that’s quite aware about the collective worry, about whether this is the end of an era. It’s called “When the world was at war we kept dancing.” But I actually went back and forth about keeping it on the record, because I didn’t want it there if it would make people feel worse instead of better. It’s not apathetic. The tone of the production is very dark, and doesn’t lead to a fucking happy feeling. And the question it poses: Is this the end of America, of an era? Are we running out of time with this person at the helm of a ship? Will it crash? In my mind, the lyrics were a reminder not to shut down or shut off, or just don’t talk about things. It was more like stay vigilant and keep dancing. Stay awake. Thirteen Beaches - I wrote a song called, thirteen beaches which talks about how I do it, last summer, I had to go to 13 different beaches before I could find one without paparazzi, where I laid down with a book. -

"Well I don't let them rain on my parade That's not my fear, cause I've got love on my side, now I've got nothing to hide, now And now life is a dream" Maybe this is her 'letter' to the LGBTQ community Jokin' -

Aren't critics simply people with different tastes and inclinations towards different musical genres like anyone in the world? Why should we worry about what they say? What governs the opinion of a musical critic? I sincerely ask you because I've never been very attached to what music critics say I'm not trying to be rude to people who have talked about it ... it's just something I do not quite understand. -

Critics do not feed Lana. The fact that an album has a very low rating in Metacritics doesn't mean that it's really a bad album, the real critic is the public that decides to buy or not to buy the album.

The photo of Lana @ the studio was posted yesterday, so obviously the photo wasn't taken today. I think Lana is actually putting some finishing touches on some songs. -

Because at that moment we thought that the song was going to be part of the film and then it would be officially released, but after two years, it clearly was not. Life is not always beautiful. Get over it.
