omg I'm actually lacking words to describe how much I thank you for that! You're truly the sweetest!
I'm so super insecure about my singing voice and nobody has ever given me any useful feedback so you can't imagine how much this means to me. Reading somebody else describing my voice is just so cool, it really helps me a lot and gives me confidence and motivation to keep on.
aaahh, I'd better stop now, I really don't know how to express my (overwhelmingly positive) feelings but thank you, thank you, thank you so much. ❤ ❤ ❤
 
 
aww thank you too! I'm not used to so much positive feedback
 
 
You guys really made my day! I couldn't imagine anything better to happen. So again thank you!
Ok, so I think I might try to record a cover of MAC with better quality and hopefully some instrumental and if it turns out at least somewhat decent I think I might share it too.

WIG GONE. Seriously, I love this tho. You should record an album of Lana covers! I love your voice. It’s so delicate and emotional!

So this thread is basically for when to share some music, Lana or not; either an artist you love, an artist you just discovered and fell in love with, a song in particular with a backstory, a question about an artist that doesn't have a thread and that doesn't need to have one... It's like with the status updates, but more in depth! The idea is that there is not enough people stanning to create a thread but you still want to talk about it and discuss it more in depth than in SU, and you could share some music news about releases and stuff I guess? Perhaps this will flop but I would have tried lol
 
EDIT: and it's also to ask questions about artists that don't deserve a thread made I think
 
I'll start with the three reasons I made this thread lol.
 
First I thought this would be bad but it's HAUNTING. I fucking love it. Listen to the chorus. It's insanely good for some reason??

 
Second of all I haven't even saw the movie but this is my favourite cinema scene of all time, it's the most perfect example of the inclusion of a song to tell a story urgh. I love that they have a Quebec accent too, it would be less good in French

 
And third of all anyone here loves dodie??? I fucking love her music. But I'm OBSESSED with lofi and folk author songs so

Done!

I'm pretty happy with the result.

i'm blown away; that was gorgeous!!!!

You know I adore you already, but I mean this completely serious - best voice I've heard cover anything on this site, and probably the most fitting voice to cover Lana that I've heard. You have that delicate but kind of dark/sadness that she has. You're voice almost cuts in and out with your volume, which works because its almost like an old radio (in a good way!). I'm curious to hear how you'd sound if you sang more strong/confident, with your tone. 

quick and messy acapella cover of MAC, maybe I'll do a proper one soon but idk

I think as long as people don't profit from it and make it only for their own collections its fine. I think restricting the files to private is a good way to try and adhere to that, even though you can't be 100% sure what people will do with it at least it's not just sitting there for everyone to download and use as they want.

Ladies and gents, I proudly present....
 

 
 
 
 

 

I would of course be super happy with anything but I think I would be happier if it was prose poems rather rhyming ones. Which I think it is? She said if I didn't misunderstood "short stories that sometimes end in a rhyme" or something. I write a bunch of poetry, sorry for self-promo, nothing spectacular, but I know the process, and I think it would be sooooo much easier for detractors to bash her head in if it was rhyming poems, it could SO easily sound artsy fartsy or conceited. 
 
I would love this kind of poem structure, kind of like a song, but also not really, with lots of plays on sonorities but not necessarily rhyming. This one is by Patti Smith, already mentioned how Venice Bitch reminds me a lot of Woolgathering in the NFR thread but 
 
 
 
 
Or this one by Bianca Casady from CocoRosie, my fav poet of all time to the point I got her name tattooed on my thigh, I would love this kind of thing but with Lana themes
 
 
 
 
Or this one by me. You get the point poems in prose but with rhythm. But most importantly I want the book to be well designed not just three word pages stappled together and wrote in comic sans 
 


 
Although honestly her poems are probably gonna look like this 

Lana spent time today with Marina and introduced her to her sister & father! This is the best thing that’s ever happened ever. Larina is alive and breathing.






Rob - “We just adopted the beautiful Marina ... to celebrate the girls bought me a gansta Golden peanut necklace”

@@PinUpCartoonBaby done and yeah I've had thoughts about whether I should nuke this whole thread or not. It was a fun guide to make but I just.. well I don't want to be disrespectful to Lana. I know she supposedly has been given one of these booklets but I don't know how she felt about it.
 
Sorry for the monologue, just now that I'm trying to be an artist myself I guess I just think about these things a bit differently. 

Done
