    She won't sing ANYTHING from L4L apart from Love, Cherry, WM and maybe the solo version of Lust For Life if she's in a good mood. Remember when she talked about how she wrote songs she wanted to perform on UV? Before she actually performed anything but UV and WC on a regular base, the songs were already not feeling fresh anymore. At some point she somehow figured it would be enough to sing half-assed acapella versions and blame the band for the fact that she's not performing them. She's a sweetheart but she talks so much sh*t when it comes to things like this.

     

    the facts of life can sometimes make it hard to dream (of a different setlist)

    I am so late on this, but I finally finished listening to the full album, finishing with Get Free. I was trying to savor a little longer, but couldn't resist. Y'all were right in saying GF has lizzy style focus. I was kind of taken aback about how much the backing vocals sound like her from years ago (unless it is someone else on backing but it sounds exactly like lizzy 2008).

     

    About the "for ___ and for ___" lyric--I like the idea some here mentioned about K and J, but I am also not sure if it really fits, considering the lyrics that come right after that basically say she is trying to be happy and free for all of those who weren't able to before they passed away. Considering what we know about K (someone--literal or not--who is on death row for crimes) and J (a violent cult leader/cult-type person), I'm not sure why she would dedicate that sentiment to those people. 

     

    I think at least one of these people is Amy Winehouse. Lana has talked before about what Amy/Amy's music meant to her. Probably doesn't need to be said, but for those unfamiliar, Amy became pretty known for music that dealt a lot with sadness, drugs, and unstable relationships, themes that were lifted straight from her personal life. Amy lost her life at 27 due to complications from her addictions. Seeing as how there are parallels in Lana's past music about addiction and unstable/unhealthy relationships, it would make sense why Amy would be included as a sort of honor/inspiration.

     

    Also probably worth noting that Amy has a song called October Song--a song about the death of Amy's beloved bird Ava--that includes the lyrics "Ava flies in paradise." Considering how GF includes the "birds of paradise" right after the "for __ and for ___" lyrics--and how October Song is also a song about death--it seems likely Lana was including Amy at least somewhere in Get Free. 

     

    It would also go along with what Lana said about not wanting to include things that would end up in the press, since Amy is both still a famous public figure and the LFL release date was just two days before Amy's anniversary of her death, and I could understand Lana's worry that some journalist would try to twist that into making Lana look like she was capitalizing on Amy's death. 

     

    I think you might be onto something here! I am happy I brought up the discussion to this board even if I did get dragged for my hillary suggestion lmao :smile3:

    :eartha: HILLARY CLINTON

     

    nah I honestly do tho! she said she didn't want it to be in the news so it has to be someone well known and idk I feel like it would fit in with the theme of the album and her sudden feminist change of heart

    At least you made me laugh

     

    But sheesh guys, can you simply look at the syllables 

    Hil-la-ry Clin-ton

    Makes 5

     

    How would that fit into any gap there

     

    'I'm doing it for hillary' would fit. No one's full name would fit it's obviously only first names unless the song was edited so there's only one syllable of 'ahhh' censoring each time

    I've not come across any speculating about who the 2 people are yet anyway who are people thinking?

    Ya'll if she's not going to rework them then this whole situation is dull and pointless. If you don't want them to be retouched then why would u be excited about her releasing them on an album? It's dumb. It's like getting excited because you can now waste money on songs you may as well be listening to for free. If she keeps them the same then i'm not spending money on a record when i could just listen to all of them from my unreleased folder on my laptop lmao

     

    I agree but I don't want her to retouch them with trap so I am happy to wait a couple of years until she's bored of those tiresome beats
