Ultra Violet

I definitely get this lol! I thought @bluechemtrails meant quavos autotune, not lanas

Her lazy singing really hits here

I'd wish y'all luck but I don't think there's any to be found in this position

I'm sorry but I kinda wish I could unhear it. The first time listening I was like "ohkaaAAYyy? " Second time listening I didn't get past 15 seconds.

If I ever honestly related to a song, I never think to myself "nah not relatable anymore" once I'm in a different place, simply because I honour every part of my journey and I remember all the time that I once did relate to that song, rather than focusing on how I don't anymore. But perhaps some I can actually mention would be: Lolita (trust me I never thought of it in terms of the character, it was just me being a carefree girl and only wanting one guy- not having the time for other guys who had crushes on me) Carmen (I never truly related but I would listen to it everytime I felt sad and misunderstood as a teen lol. Maybe i wish i would have realised at that age how much I actually did NOT relate lol) WTWWAWWKD (still need this instrumental leak! But nowadays, especially since Israel started genocide in the middle east with everyone supporting it, I kinda refuse to listen to it as I think it doesn't come across in a way I want to accept, idkkk, its hard to explain) The rest I am very happy to connect with again easily.

Dandelion YES Also deadly doll is so stereotypically lana but I still can't help but think about it like an old song Lana would cover Also this one

Nostalghia (very cinematic and poetic, lana-dark-honeymoon-esque) 1. Kingdom of Disturb 2. Nicoqueen 3. Be My Man 4. They Don't Love You For Your Mind 5. Imago 6. Lonely Angel

Finally checked out the album! I was super impressed from the opening track. And skinny also made me think of Lana, and how different everyone talks about her this year (even on this forum) compared to the last 2-3 years. Overall, I'd say, the only thing that's stopped me being a regular fan of Billie is that I prefer a different singing style. In fact I'm most drawn to the shouted backing vocals of Chihiro, and when The Greatest picks up, and the end of L'amour de ma vie. Can anyone recommend more Billie songs where she sings like this? I know the power of Billie's voice, and have known since 2017, but i don't tend to like the style she's settled with. I have the same opinion about Halsey. I need these girls to use their voices power and not hold back! But yeah billie is still excellent and appropriately rated.

Same! That's exactly what I pictured lol, and I was like "how random, it must have some meaning to Lana"

Ariana stop making me think Penn Badgley is attractive again

Has this specific reddit post at 14:00 been spoken about in this forum before? I am mind blown

Not that the songs make me feel tired, but they are simply best felt when you're on your way home in the evening and the sun is setting and you're tired. The Blackest Day God Knows I Tried Grimes - Skin Cat Power - Fool Garbage - On Fire FKA Twigs - Ultraviolet Beach House - Space Song

That sounds cool! I'll definitely give it a go

Hi I have 2 questions as someone who didn't even realise this dropped. Does it actually sound rock-inspired? Any songs that may be about Jesse Rutherford?

I wanna talk about our release day memories! What was everyone doing when they first heard the album? I downloaded it on my phone on some sketchy mp3 app, and listened to it back-to-back on my bed. I literally just sat there in awe! Cruel world was an instant fave, and so was Sad Girl And it was a life changing album for sure. No "I need to listen to it again", no "I need more time with it", just instant fave.

This would therefore mark the day I could stop listening to Lana's gorgeous vocals drowned by wretched screaming on repeat

I don't even want to say anything about the song. I just want to say I love her!

Really sad that she's definitely gonna do nothing at most just sharing something on her insta story. Fingers crossed it's an unseen photo or studio footage or something but that's a big useless dream innit

Can we also talk about how perfect her choice of singles were for this era?? I think we often debate which songs should have been singles, but I don't think any choice could have been better than what we got from Ultraviolence. No I won't take PWYC as an answer

I will shamlessly re-promote my blog of the Ultraviolence timeline including even little things from interviews that dont really mean much, but im that obsessed... last updated apparently 9 months ago so it's as recent as we have right now, I think.

Have fun being another bunch of particles floating around in the ocean

I wonder if i can do that as the OP. Clearly when I started the thread I didn't really know this is what was objectively happening. Edit: OK let me know if I can make it any more accurate

Any article trying to describe Lana's music with big words and big references is so funny to me. It's like they try so hard trying to become Lana and write it in Lana's lyrics that its unnatural.. and when Lana has only really described her music quite simply because sophistication and specific referencing is so natural to her. This brings to mind the 2019 article that Lana responded to with this: I read the article and just laughed. Even without Lana's response bringing attention to it, it truly did make me cringe. Some people really think they're writing poetry when they write about her

Film a studio live performance of singing 3 unreleased songs (this is the minimum amount that would have us in a chokehold for possibly 10 months), or previously never performed songs. Post it on youtube, bring back all the stans that mightve been quiet for a few years.
