La Dolce Vita

I love how all of Lana's songs connect in some way or another- even if it's inadvertent at times. 


 

Awesome thing is there's hundreds more than just the ones I listed above.

Fuck yes, it's beautiful. I'm a sucker for Lana's narratives. The development as the album progresses is amazing- the dynamics and everything.
  Groupie Love -  "My babe made me sing to a fire escape City girl but she grew up in the tri-state"
 
God Bless America - 
"I hear the sweetest melodies On the fire escapes of the city"  
13 Beaches - 
"And I still get lonely"
 
God Bless America -
"Even when I'm alone
I'm not lonely You better believe nobody could make me feel lonely"

Gorgeous. It's cool how part of the message of Change correlates with Heroin. Especially since both are next to one another on the tracklist:
 
Heroin -
"I hope that I come back one day
To tell you that I really changed, baby
Makes me feel like I can change all of my evil ways and shit"
 
Change -
"Change is a powerful thing, people are powerful beings
Change is a powerful thing, I feel it coming in me"   I think the imagery in Pink Floyd's video for Goodbye Blue Sky fits Change perfectly too:

I do too. Something else I really love about it is its placement on the record. It comes right after the brooding outro of Heroin:
 
Heroin -
"I hope that I come back one day
To tell you that I really changed, baby
Makes me feel like I can change all of my evil ways and shit"
 
Change -

she is a genius 

Ah, I didn't catch onto that! Lana is literally killing me.

I absolutely love her drunken swearing on Cherry- wouldn't change it for anything. I just feel it imbibes the cherries & wine lyric perfectly. It's chaotic, sexy and raw- a fucked up love concoction.

Such a fucking tearjerker. I love how evocative it is- it reads like a sepia tinted film. Look after the person you love.

I visualized Tittenhurst Park when she mentioned a country house & the chorus brought this photo session of John & Yoko to mind:





This is the second time Lana has mentioned Lay Lady Lay- the first being Religion. It's so interesting how many references may be/are in this song:
"Tiny Dancer" - Elton John
"Lay Lady Lay" - Bob Dylan
"Ask Me Why" - The Beatles

Even the title could be a love letter to "Tomorrow Never Comes" by Elvis, "Tomorrow Never Knows" by The Beatles, or "Tomorrow May Never Come" by Yoko.
