Sweet interview.
I like pies too

The time has come! This is always much easier to accomplish than I convince myself, I really should do them sooner...Anyway. It's Anthem time! Always exciting getting some new-gen LanaBoarders who seem to be widely appreciated in on this practice and let them join the great fraternity of members who resent me for my procrastination (but no longer @@Bekim for his sidebar stealing, thx admin!). Preauxceed with praising her (HER! a girl! wtf!).
 
Member of the Month (March/April): Anthem
 

 

OMG, I'm gonna namedrop everybody who has worked with Lana so far and hope she makes something that sounds exactly like things she has already done!!!111!

Her first single "Downtown Jazz" is coming for 20 weeks at #1 don't believe me just watch 

Not sure if this thread is still about discussing Honeymoon, but I met Emile today after he did a little talk at an Apple Store in Soho about his music and life and process-- he didn't talk much about Lana, but he talked about how when they work sometimes he'd play her a little chord or something he really liked and she would say "That fucking sucks" in her giggly Lana way, but he said that it really pushes him and how they work and argue all the time and it's what makes the music really great. When I met him after I asked him to sign my vinyl & my friend and I asked if he was working on Honeymoon and he said yes! Not sure if that means currently working on or worked on-- so don't make the statement more than what it is.

Yes, and Neil who has close ties to lana. & to the fake photo of lana, who the fuck cares? I thought it was nice and people have fake album covers as their avi and its really not that different. Quit being a bitter bitch for a change

why are people so quick to shoot down fan theories and stuff like damn... chill. @ everyone stop taking everything so seriously, it's just harmless fun. it's like you're all just purposely trying to start drama. 
to be fair though what else can i expect on a forum filled with gay teen twinks

and thats relevant to this situation how?? (: 

Damn you're always so bitter.

HONEYMOON

 

Inspired obviously by Born To Die album cover

 

As a member of the BDSM community I am ashamed of this book. 

make a duet with Ed and liberate her inner Taylor Swift
 
I met this girl late last year
She said don't you worry if I disappear
I told her I'm not really looking for another mistake
I called an old friend thinking that the trouble would wait
 
She’s the apple of everybody’s eye
With an angel voice
Devil in disguise
Got a sour face like a poisoned fruit
That the boys can taste ’til they’re out of use
 
Wish I'd have written it down
The way that things played out
When she was kissing him
How I was confused about
She should figure it out while I'm sat here singing
 
It’s a power, it’s a power, it’s a power move
And while I’m not quite sure what she’s trying to prove
They all say she’s got low self-esteem
So, why is she looking like a cat who got the cream?
 
And she’ll network ’til her dreams come true
Even if it means getting into bed with you
Everybody’s friend, does it ring a bell?
I know a little too much but I’ll never tell
 
I never intended to be next
But you didn't need to take him to bed that's all
And I never saw him as a threat
Until you disappeared with him to have sex of course

It's not like we were both on tour
We were staying on the same fucking hotel floor
And I wasn't looking for a promise or commitment
But it was never just fun and I thought you were different

This is not the way you realize what you wanted
It's a bit too much, too late if I'm honest
All this time God knows I'm singing

Ah-la-la-la-la
Don't fuck with my love
That heart is so cold
All over my arm
I don't wanna know that babe
 
Well, I guess it’s just what humans do
Hook up with other people until it all falls through
And when it’s over they go out and try and heal their pain
Hook up with another lover, do it all again
I’m not passing judgment on her sexual life
I’m passing judgement on the way she always stuck her knife
In my back ever since we were starting out
Suspicious from the start, I always had my doubts about you
But you can do better than
You can do better than that

HOLY SHIT THIS RIGHT HERE
 
I was a record store yesterday and was so amazed on how much music there is, and I just though how silly these stan wars is and how we obsess over the "package" as you cal it, too much.  At the end of the day, the music that we hear is the most important part.

So... Wow...

I just read through 90% of this thread and.... 

I gotta say I'm really kind of overwhelmed, shocked and ultimately disappointed by so many of the comments I see here. It would seem that a large majority of the fans here really don't give a fuck about the content or concept of Lana's music as long as we "get a new look for the era" or she stops doing "boring jazz" (which is an oxymoron) or she stops wearing "jeans and tshirts" or starts "using makeup." Again and again the comments here read like a tug of war with everyone pulling her in all different directions. This is one of the first times I have ever truly hoped she does not ever read this forum. There used to be a lot of constructive, thought out criticism here from people who had a wealth of knowledge about music- from genre specialties to music history- and could discuss Lana's work in an interesting way. People could really discuss the cultural significance of what she was doing or dissect her lyrics. This is all just like... "stan" vomit. And if Lana were to ever read through this... Wow... I can't imagine. I would be SO uninspired to see what my fans were discussing and valuing about my art. It's not that there is criticism- I have read thoughtful critiques on her work here before that I wish Lana could/would read because I think they would inspire her so much. However, so many of the comments here miss the mark completely on what is important. She is an ARTIST. Allow an artistic process to HAPPEN. She is not your barbie doll to dress up and style. She is a person who is trying to communicate her soul through a difficult business called the Music Industry that has become LESS and LESS about the actual music.

Do you guys see how so many of us have been conditioned to value the PACKAGE over the PRODUCT in this industry? They are destroying our minds and our ability to appreciate diversity and art in the music world. By us placing so much emphasis on how she looks, we keep perpetuating the kind of business models that starved funding our of Ultraviolence. Labels send interns onto forums like this to get a read on what the fan bases are looking for, what they want. The music industry has taught you to care more about Lana's hair than her words, so now when a label lackey comes on here to read through this garbage, what they will report back to their bosses is "They want a pretty girl, the music seems so secondary." This means, ultimately, more label control. The label could pressure Lana into a package she isn't comfortable with and as a result, we get a less authentic and self-expressing artist. 

This is all hypothetical, but this is how things happen. Consumers of art need to seriously take more responsibility when using their voice. 

I can't imagine how I would feel if I read through pages and pages of comments that missed the point of what I do completely. I would be completely devastated and hollow. 

(Not to say that EVERY post was like this, but I'm just highlighting a few that really stuck with me. Come on guys, we can do better than this. And I'm not even saying Lana's look isn't important to some degree- as she has often used it as an extension of expression of the music. But come on, some of these comments... We are smarter than that and we care about Lana's authentic expression more than that... right?) 

Thank you soooo much. I love it @@Godsandlana
