Ultra Violet

I liked the part on the first page when people were funny about it and obviously joking and not taking this so seriously

I caught up on nearly 100 pages Saved 19 of Boz's replies to update my UV timeline, and 7 for a future Honeymoon timeline (Dont wanna quote bc he deserves a break!) Reading this http://lanaboards.com/topic/10247-ldr-album-process-discussion/?do=findComment&comment=1451920 reply tho... i never thought i would understand or like the change of TNBAR (lfl outtake) to the NFR track, but now I do. From bitter and harsh to honouring memories, taking partial responsibilty + being right after California... MY HEART Edit: also i was so close to deleting "demo 1 and 2" of YTH, Fine China and Your Girl off my phone after finding out they are FAKES but i love them and ill take anything, especially since i have almost 7 years of memories with these FAKES

Edit: oops you already said this, but heres the link to where she said she met Dan at a strip club https://www.complex.com/covers/lana-del-rey-interview-against-the-grain-2014-cover-story/

Love her. Personally, i think the lyrics are a fantasy, like a play on archetypes or something. But it doesnt make any difference to me either way (Not sure if in the QFTC videos she mentioned dancing for money irl or just in Tropico)

I love this thread Is I Talk To Jesus (Alt Version) the version done with Dan Auerbach for Ultraviolence in early 2014? Or is that yet another version we don't have?

Whew yes! Also adding my updated timeline here. Adding notes about vocals that were re-recorded from demos or remained the same is something I should also add at some point.

Woah thats amazing. Knowing LIB was not made only for the movie to begin with (if we knew that already Id forgotten) and Wild One might have also been known to them as Mike

A gorgeous song. The spiritual direction for the original LDR 2 is fascinating

Wait, can you enlighten me? im still dying for Lana to acknowledge Garbage/Shirley

That is true. Ive also always wondered who started the indie/hipster style vocals. Lana doesnt really have those vocals, but im thinking the XX definitely brought it in. Im not hugely into other bands like them so im not sure, maybe there were others before that.

I loved UV so much because b&w makes any other colour stand out more, so the hydrangea blue and purples are perfect. But im happy to see honeymoon winning NGL tho if I was back in the eras before 2015, id look at those from NFR onwards and be confused as hell!

It's the middle of winter, but in my mind it's summer, MiIiiike

California tbh

Iconic! Whenever i finally get the money to go try on expensive earrings, in my head i am gonna be like "i am literally trying on earrings"

~ Fuck Off ~

My faves from Honeymoon: Carry me home, got my blue nailpolish on. It's my favorite color, and my favorite tone of sOOOoooong. Flames so hot that they turn blue... Leather black and eyes of blue... (i always sing it in my head as "skies of blue")

Wait i feel like im the only one who doesnt think this shoot is trashy or gross. I think its really beautiful! I wont take that back! I saw this when i was 15/16 and even then i thought it was nice

It sounded alright And for them to be such boring songs too. The skips from Love Sux.

I agree that visions is really her best (im sure specifically you and I have had this conversation before LOL). being made after her first two that were pure experimental Grimes, Visions still has the vibe of Grimes before she got big and before she started noticing what people thought of her. To me Art Angels is almost too cohesive, which is so funny to say since we seem to hate it when albums arent cohesive enough. If it had some of the looseness that the Realiti demo did, it would have been a perfect Grimes album.

I would honestly say skip Geidi and listen to Halfaxa as background music. Its beautiful and artistic. But youll find more single "hit" songs on Visions. Geidi Primes is a fun listen when i dont really care if what im listening to is messy and loud. But its still got some cute songs that i love like Rosa and Caladan.

IYLDWM: So is it "Baby wants a dance, baby gets her way" or "Baby wants a dance, baby gets away"? At first i heard the top line, but now i only hear the bottom line.

Woah i went THROUGH some shit trying to think of which lana album was my inner self and outer self. I chose Blue Bannisters for inner and Honeymoon for outer. That took some thinking I got The Collector of Memories

Gaslighting myself: a Las Vegas Casino

Harry Nilsson has a song, his voice breaks at 2:05 Somethin' about the way he says "Don't forget me" I think she might mean the way his voice breaks when he sings at 2:05, and then also when he says "Dont Forget Me" in addition? Like, it's a seperate sentence in the song? She probably just tried to make whatever fit, while still having some meaning.
