Wtf did I just read that the unreleased song 'Paradise' was soundchecked? Someone else has read that rumour?

I don't know if I have goosebumps because my room is freezing or if was because of your idea.
Let a fangirl dream a little.

I imagined that she'd open with Heroin - like not appear on stage but sing "I'm flying to the moon again" a couple of times and then come on stage and sing Heroin as the opener. But we all know that won't happen.

...and when everybody thinks the show is over:

Yes, I do know that this is more wishful thinking than a realistic prediction, fight me. 

You are an icon & I'll love you till the end of times 

This tour makes me so anxious...
 
 
 
 

I agree! The entire 'era' of an unreleased album should just be unreleased photos as well. My ultimate ideal is that she would get one or two professionally recorded performances but in a smaller jazz venue or something where she could be heard better like the Sydney Opera House. Or maybe something like Marinas acoustic live videos for Electra Heart that were released like official music videos, so that way there wouldn't be the issue of keeping the audience quiet
 
 
 

Still waiting on FJM collab. There's no way that could go wrong with two musical geniuses who are besties irl at it.

i hope that in her next era she sticks to the aesthetic...

i hate the fact she has alexandria and ashley (her lil dancers) on stage with her. in my opinion they add nothing to the show and just get in the way   

I'm so judge-y now but
if Lana still uses the music videos as background visuals for her tour (I don't mind if she uses the horses for White Mustang since the song is new), a part of me still thinks she'll play for only one hour just like on festivals. New scene, same songlist. I hope I'm wrong since this is a world tour, which is something huge to do, and I hope she plays some new LFL songs to promote the album. But I think she'll boycott the more political songs since being a proud American might be sensitive to some these days. But probably not her fans.
I think she'll show up in dresses. Maybe she saved the dresses for the tour and that's why she's been playing in black top + jeans lately? (Ok, wishful thinking, we all know that's not why she loves her jeans lately)
Anyway. If she plays less than an hour, I'm pretty sure her fans will go mad since the tickets were so expensive and the critiques will probably write that she ends quickly after greeting her fans at the end of OTTR.
So can we expect 30-40 minutes of Jhené/Kali Uchis, waiting time and then 1 hour (hoping for 1+ for you who are going to see her) with Lana?

I'll be happy as long as there are no Adidas in sight.

I much rather hear the studio version first without people screaming ( yeah i get it people are excited but can they at least stop shouting when she sings Yosemite?)

They deleted my comment asking if Lana will still be featured in issue three. Feature is cancelled. Rip BTD shoot

I thought a lot of this was quite obvious especially after Tropico. It's the dark side of the American dream. I always thought that a lot of her music (BtD and Paradise in particular) was about the idolaziation and worshipping of American pop culture and the darkness behind that. Her growing up obsessing over all these Hollywood legends to the point of wanting to become famous herself (Groupie incognito) and then only seeing the cruelty of it all. I mean none of this is really a conspiracy, it's an observation that a lot of us could have and can make. Beyoncé even had a visual in Lemonade "I'm not a God", because that's literally how the public treat her. (Sidenote: Family Feud MV being filmed in a church or the Grammy performsnce. The hypocrisy.) I believe the whole Get Free/COTBR is actually telling the listener to disattach themselves from that kind of worship or generally speaking getting rid of the desire to be like celebrities/live their life (there's no more chasing rainbows -> their arches are illusions). We seek to imitate art, but we should free ourselves from doing so as it is all an illusion.

She's been telling us... we weren't listening. Time to wake them up

I feel like a lot of this can also crossover with her references to metaphysics, the occult, and catholicism in her music. Lana has definitely dabbled in the new age concept, and the fear of entering a 'new world order' instead of 'the new age' (aka the age of Aquarius). This is really interesting, I've been into this kind of stuff forever, so it's really dope seeing Lana talk about this kind of stuff in her music, and finding new things I never noticed. She had that one weird post about the Zeitgeist movie on her myspace (which was just ramblings about the film), but that's probably nothing. I always thought that Put Me In a Movie was a darker track, about the elite sex rings that plague society. Fucked My Way Up To the Top always felt like a grown up version of PMIAM to me.
