If she wanted to quit smoking, aren’t there nicotine patches or gum she could’ve bought instead? -

Nintendo Switch (& Games) Thread
Beautiful Loser replied to Make me your Dream Life's topic in Video Games
I got my Switch as a birthday gift in 2017 with Zelda:BotW and Mario Kart 8 but didn't dare to pick it up until a year later, mostly because I didn't want to get addicted when I had to study instead. If you guys know me, I adore Zelda games so can you imagine the willpower I had to not touch it for so long?? Anyway, if I were to make a list of games too... -
Lana's lacking live performances - a discussion
Beautiful Loser replied to Beautiful Loser's topic in Lana Thoughts
I’ve been thinking a little bit and I think that my problem isn’t that the BTD songs (BTD, Video games, Blue Jeans, and occasionally Summertime Sadness) are always there because they are her breakthrough songs. There are still fans who haven’t had the chance to hear them live yet and I’m sure they’d love to hear them too, and Lana isn’t the only one to keep old hits in her set lists (my brother, for example, is kinda sick of Elevation on U2’s tours but I love it and it makes the whole arena jump so I don’t mind). They kind of have to be there. I think the problem now though is that her shows are quite short - if she sang for longer, there would be no problem to add newer songs or songs she rarely sings live and still keep the classic BTD tracks. Like we’ve mentioned, you expect something more and longer shows when the ticket prices go up too (especially if the stages still look somewhat similar and the set lists too). And maybe it is time to quit coming down to the crowd, like a music reporter from a newspaper here suggested earlier this year. It’s cute, it’s VERY generous of her to come down every show but she’s kinda becoming quite big now and may not have to flirt with the crowd like that. (Aaand she sometimes goes down to the same people anyway - I had no hopes that she’d stop by me, which she didn’t, so I wasn’t disappointed, but I know other fans have been). Anyway, I completely agree with @@daphnedinkley above. -
I'm listening to a radio show where they're comparing composer Franz Schubert with Lana. Weird, but still cool. Now they're playing Love Song. I've only heard about 11 minutes so far so I'm not sure where they're going, but I think it's about the same longing for romance and being dreamers. They said if Schubert's music was made today, it might sound like Lana's. Let me know if you want me to go all bananas again and translate it. https://sverigesradio.se/sida/avsnitt/1359653?programid=4914

Bought Wolfenstein 2: the new colossus for Switch for my brother because it’s on a super sale or something and he’s currently abroad.

YES. Do you have any close friends here on LB?

The problem is though that, I think, she doesn’t care much about bad reviews. Just look at her reaction to Ann Powers’ review of NFR!, and several other times as well. And I kinda understand Lana too: she’s a strong believer of her vision (which I love!) and she sees that what she’s doing now is working, fans are still coming to her shows and worship her for anything and everything. Why need to change if it works?
