    The novel "Lolita" doesn't concern a paedophile, it deals with H.H's hebephilia (hence why he doesn't want anyone younger, it's a specific age range).
     
    Also, the entire Off to the Races is a "Lolita" reference. For almost every line of the song, I can think of something in the novel.

    How very awkward for you when you realise that 'ageing' is the British spelling of your 'aging'
     
    annnyway ya people get older. I think she looks better, despite her 'aging'.

    Seriously? Ageing? 
    Either you're 12 or a writer for the Daily Mail.

    Look at everyone here, talking about their drug experiences. And here I am..at 4 in the morning, drinking my tea. Holla.

    @@Philomene , either you misunderstood Lolita, or you misunderstand Lana's songs
     
    Lana's songs that contain Lolita references aren't at all implying that's it's an "omg luv story"
     
    One example:
     
    - "Light of my life, fire of my loins
    Be a good baby, do what I want" relating to either Herbert's desire to dominate Dolores, or the constant turbulent power dynamics between H and D (H: "be a good baby" H: "do what I want!" would be an imagined conversation)

    Also just watched the snl performance first time (been kinda avoiding it I guess) and I don't get it? What was the thing?

    Given that this was written for Gatsby, we must keep in mind that Daisy (the female protagonist) is an incredibly materialistic, shallow woman. The 'diamonds' part really linked this to Daisy. Although I think Baz has taken a different approach with her, making her a poor romantic like Gatsby, the trailer certainly hinted at it.
