Beautiful Loser

@Rorman Nockwell I want a LDR village stickman t-shirt, thank you

I'M IN AAAAAA just need to work on stop procastinating on my schoolwork so I'll have time for this oops

I'll need to warm up to body paint, but I don't think it's a bad song. There'd better be a mirrorball sounds so lush to me, I'm loving it. I'm sure I'll like body paint the more I listen to it too, I think it would sound pretty cool performed live on stage.

You're allowed to do that, but maybe it's better to create a separate thread where such topics can be discussed more seriously? That's just how I see on it though... and it seems to be too late for that now anyway. I don't have time to keep an eye on this thread 24/7 so I hope my fellow mods can help with that, but if it escalates, I have a feeling that we might have to lock it.

Hey, everyone! As I had a feeling of, this thread became messy quite quickly. Let's see if we can make the tone in here better! People will have different opinions; that's simply how it is, and something everyone will need to accept. Some feel bad for the Queen, some think of her family members, some see a part of themselves in the Royal family, and others don't care, strongly dislike everything the monarchy stands for and would like for it all to disappear. I think we all can understand that. However, this thread is not the place to discuss how England's monarch(s) has affected the world, or what it symbolises or stands for! Please only comment about the queen's passing, or maybe update what they're saying about it in your own countries. Discussing scandals of the royal family members don't suit in here either (as disgusting as they may be) Please don't make inappropriate jokes about death, or joke how other users here decide to handle this news As always, remember there's another person sitting on the other side of the screen and has feelings! Be kind to each other, pick your words wisely. Discuss without unnecessary hurtful words or sounding inflammatory. I'll leave the thread open for now, but if any of the other mods or the admin decide that it's better to lock it, please respect their decision! Thanks for reading, and cooperating!

As a moderator, I just wanna ask everyone to try to keep politics away from this thread, we all know how quickly things can escalate here. Thanks for cooperating.

I knew Lana would post about the Queen's passing.

I would make a police report about it anyway. Even if it leads to nothing, you've at least tried.

What the f, do people really have nothing better to do than disturb people's lives and sleep at 2 AM??? This is unacceptable, I'm so sorry, Elle. You really have to deal with way to many shitty things for this community, I would've quit being an admin after an hour.

Sketched my hand.

I'd say that's a bit offensive to say.

Their screaming lmao

So I guess they’re still finalizing the songs for the album.

Wow. Ten years? I've only been here for... lemme count... five years! I would've been here for longer if I had found the site earlier, I remember looking for LDR fan forums back in like... 2014, 2015, but couldn't find any. I couldn't imagine that I'd be a mod for this site one day when I joined! And no lurking either, I found LB and I just had to become a member. Luckily for me, I got my account the day after applying! I might not be super active these days (studying extra for 3 semester of my current bachelor's, being stuck at summer jobs, trying to go out and touch grass etc etc) but. This site means a lot to me. SO much. I've met some of the best people here, friends who cheered me up when I felt down and I still am in contact with, six years on! Who could've guessed that? And I've also been super lucky to meet three fellow users in real life (shoutout to @Dominikx4, @Greenwich Acid Cherry Pie and @HoneymoonDaddy ) and stood just a few meters away from queen @Elle (I'm still sad I didn't see you at that London concert lol, it would've been amazing to say hi)... and I only hope I get to meet more in the future! I'm pretty sure I was depressed, or about to become, when I joined the site, even though it wasn't severe. But I just wasn't myself, I kept trying my best but it was just never good enough for me, and this site, with all you guys, all your wild theories, hilarious gifs and relatable stories of your lives, allowing me to see a glimpse of who you guys are. And the LB Lipster award nights. And when we all go crazy for snippets or even the slightest promise of a new single or album. Or when we all died waiting for Norman to drop. Man. I feel like I owe you all, haha! I'm glad to say I'm feeling better these days. although today might not be one of them but I'm gonna try to get myself and my schoolwork together this weekend To be honest, there have been times when I did not look forward to visiting the site for various reasons, but I've always returned. And I'm pretty sure I will continue to come back to this site for many more years. Cheers! And big thanks, Elle, for keeping this site alive, once I get a proper income, I'll see if I can donate in some way.

this is such a cute idea, I'd join if I was younger, when I didn't have so much to keep me busy

New MV got up while I was sleeping! I'm gonna listen to the song now. Edit: Ok, so it's not rock at all but rather a bit jazzy, not what I was expecting, but! I think it was pretty good, I'll definitely play this song when I go for a walk this fall, and then Lana's cover of Buddy's Rendezvou playing after... will be so good.

Oh they've performed one of the new songs just recently! "I ain't quite where I think I am" I can see myself listening to this sometime this fall.

The yellow vinyl is prettier than the grey one on their official site. not biased at all, yellow isn't my fav color at all nooooo...!

New albummmmmm, "The Car"! I really like the cover art, haha. Can't decide if I wanna preorder it yet, I think I'll wait for a single or two and then make my mind up. https://arcticmonkeys.com/ There’d Better Be A Mirrorball I Ain’t Quite Where I Think I Am Sculptures Of Anything Goes Jet Skis On The Moat Body Paint The Car Big Ideas Hello You Mr Schwartz Perfect Sense

I listened to their new single this morning. I can't say I liked it, I was a bit disappointed to be honest. It's the same like their previous comeback singles, I was hoping Teddy (he's still producing their songs, right?) would give them something slightly new to make them evolve. It's like they're stuck in the same sound which made them huge. :/

I just came to say that B's new album was all I streamed for like two weeks straight, I actually had to force myself to play some other songs lmao. I love iiiitttt, I really wanna buy the deluxe version. The pictures... chef's kiss!

Cherry is hot when performed live, I don't really care for the studio version. Next song: Don't call me angel

A thread for me and @electra

I just assumed she was posting a throwback video from a couple of weeks ago. :B

I hear Rockefeller, my umbrella God, I love you, baby Sorry that- (and I assume I is the follwoing word)
