  1. Okay so I've just tried to teach myself so I'll warn you guys this may not be up to your usual standard, but I have tried my best to copy the audio from YouTube and made some artwork if you wanna use it!

     

    I Must Be Stupid For Being So Happy - https://picosong.com/wjH5z/

     

    Hey Blue Baby - https://picosong.com/wjHLA/

     

    Artwork - https://imgur.com/a/sGtfwcI

     

    (The artwork is probably not gonna be that great because I made it on powerpoint [by this point, you can already tell I am SKILLED with technology] and there were hardly any decent photos from the event I could find)


  2. The fact that I had to read through almost two pages of slandering someone y'all don't even know only proves to me that some of y'all really should go outside more. Some of y'all are just plain jealous lmao (I am too, though, but still). 

     

    But sure, have your assumption-based opinions and stay pressed. If he's really that mean towards other fans, is he really worth it to talk about so much?

     

    ANYWAY. Today's a good day. The temperature is 12ºC, cloudy, but dry. 

     

     

    I'm glad you've said this, because I can still now feel myself getting irrationally jealous and I do need to calm down.

     

    I have only had the opportunity to see Lana once in the 5-6 years I have been stanning, and I wasn't able to get to the barricade for other reasons. It's not anyone's fault, but it was really bittersweet for me seeing Lana by the barricade talking to other fans. I was really happy for the people there meeting her for the first time, but so devastated I couldn't be there too. I can only imagine what it must be like to have put so much into stanning her, making all that effort getting to the barricade in an effort to meet Lana, and then her ignore you and meet someone she has met 20 times before. 

     

    I'm not blaming anyone - I can understand Lana probably feels she should see the same people again because they go to a lot of shows, and might feel awkward not seeing them. And as someone else said, it is probably quite calming for her to see familiar faces when she is performing. And if I could, I would fly and attend multiple shows, but I don't have the money, time, or confidence to fly. Of course, that does not excuse his behaviour towards other stans.

     

    I am kind of annoyed at myself for getting worked up over something which is understandable from both sides. But I can still understand why I am annoyed to, just because I haven't yet had the opportunity myself!

     

    Anyway, thank you @ivy, you have put it into perspective!


  3. Honestly the only thing that would make me unstan was if some sort of scandal like Melanie Martinez or Poppy came out, I just wouldn't be able to separate the art from the artist. But I highly doubt that will happen! (Pls note this is not a criticism of members who stan Melanie/Poppy)

     

    As a couple of other members have said, I've been stanning for 6 years (from when I was 14 - 20 now) and while other artists have come and gone, I love Lana more than I have ever done. Although I do love her more in a different way - I used to be a much more intense stan (listen to her music ALL the time, think about her music constantly) but I don't do that much anymore. I am fine with it though, she still has a massive impact on my life. I can go a while without listening to her music, and actually I went through a phase where I stopped myself listening to it because I was so scared I would overplay her songs and they would lose the magic, but I am trying to get out of that phase now because I miss listening to her!

     

    But yeah even if I do stop stanning (where something major would need to happen) she will still be part of my life. Her music has been there when no one else has, and is one of the only things in my life which is stable and you can rely on. It will be there in your darkest moments and not judge you, I feel her albums (especially UV and HM) just kinda listen to you if you are upset about something? Idk if that even makes sense but yes in conclusion she has probably made the biggest impact on my life after my mum so unstanning seems impossible. 

     

    TR;DL I fricking love that woman and I can see myself with my stan card intact when I am 90 years old


  4. If y'all are looking for some super cheap stuff, check out Universal Music's outlet store: https://greatofferstore.com/

    Lots of vinyl records for just £ 10 or even less, including Born To Die and Ultraviolence and Lust For Life on coke-bottle clear vinyl for £ 15, as well as albums by Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Banks, Duffy, Tove Lo, Lorde, Florence and many more.

     

    Edit: Just got Rated R and Pure Heroine. :flutter:

     

    Wait what everything here is so cheap, surely there must be a catch  :defeated:  King @@SlowGinFizzzz thank you for posting this link, I'm gonna be so broke by the time I finish on this website but IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER :excited:

     

    Also SGF when you got those vinyls, did they say it was temporarily out of stock but if you order now there will be more stock soon? Did they give you an estimate of when they would be back in stock?


  5. MARINA IS HAVING AN INTERVIEW ON BBC RADIO 2 RIGHT NOW :party:

     

    A quick summary of the interview (it was very short with Marina)

    - BBC Radio 2 will be playing Baby every day next week! Get that hit!

    - Marina asked Jack if she could join one of Clean Bandit's writing sessions and they wrote 'Baby'. They were considering giving it to someone else, but Marina and Clean Bandit loved it so much, they kept it.

     

    Also the acoustic version of Baby was brilliant :flutter:


  6. She uploaded a new profile & cover pics in her social media accounts!

    45289480_10155551503431755_4916070878975

     

    I really love how Marina has still included the diamond drawing after her name, so although this is a new era for her and she is kinda 'going it alone' by using her first name only, it is like we/the diamonds are still with her :flutter:
