loveyoumadly

I mean you do have a suitcase with blood in it but everything is very metaphorical

I think the old guy represents the alleged Black Dahlia killer, George Hodel

Swiftologist on YouTube actually has some great analyses on Lana! I'd especially recommend his video on Ultraviolence. I think what he discusses could really be pertinent to your thesis!
 
 

Well if you can read French hahah (I'm French)
 
Ohh Kimberlé is sooo good ! 100% recommand
Thanks ! Yes I totally agree, It was one of my sources 
"But you still can find me
If you ask nicely
Underneath the pines
With the daisies
Feeling hazy
In the ballroom of my mind
Across the county line"
 
so good

the lyrics are just the surface... this song is one of the few songs where she's revealed that the person she's singing to throughout the song is a metaphor for fame

Hi everyone, If you guys ever have an idea, I might need some help in my thesis, I'll take everything (lyrics, life moments, interview moments, visuals, honestly anything you can think of) !!! 
 
 
In my thesis, "Commentary on fame: Poetics and politics of womanhood through Lana Del Rey's life and art," I aim to explore the complex relationship between fame, gender, and artistic expression by analyzing the music and public persona of Lana del Rey. To do so, I will draw on theoretical frameworks from feminist theory, cultural studies, and musicology.
 
One of the key concepts in my analysis is power, and I will draw on feminist theories of power to explore the ways in which female artists like Lana del Rey navigate the politics of representation and the construction of celebrity identities. Specifically, I will use Michel Foucault's notion of power as productive and diffuse to argue that power operates not only through top-down coercion, but also through the production of subjectivities and identities through discourse. I will also draw on the concept of intersectionality, developed by Kimberlé Crenshaw, to argue that gender intersects with other aspects of identity, such as race and class, to shape the experiences and opportunities of female artists in the music industry.
 
To support my analysis, I will use specific examples from Lana del Rey's music and public persona. For instance, I will analyze the themes of femininity, sexuality, and power in her music, drawing on specific songs like "Did You Know That There's A Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd" and "Born to Die." I will also examine her controversial statements about feminism and her relationship with the media, drawing on interviews and media coverage from specific dates and sources.
 
Furthermore, I will use concepts from cultural studies to explore the cultural and historical context of celebrity culture. Specifically, I will use Stuart Hall's concept of encoding/decoding to analyze how the media frames and represents female artists like Lana del Rey, and how audiences decode and interpret these representations. I will also draw on Richard Dyer's theory of the star system to analyze the ways in which celebrity culture constructs and commodifies celebrity identities.
 
Overall, my thesis seeks to offer a critical analysis of the complex and often fraught world of celebrity culture, and its intersections with gender and artistic expression. By drawing on specific examples from Lana del Rey's life and art, I hope to provide a nuanced and insightful perspective on the intricate interplay between fame, gender, and artistic expression.

I love the video, it's very her, beautifully directed, very metaphorical - love the artistic direction - It's expected, but well executed.

I'm a stan of AKA, BTD, UV, HM, LFL (altho have some criticism for it), NFR, BB and Tunnel but drag me all you want I absolutely hate COCC as an album and consider it a total waste. Only first 3 songs on this are classics (WD, COCC and TJF), everything else is "cute" at best and tbh completely unlistenable to me, I always start falling asleep after Wild at Heart, it's a snoozefest, with the ending tracks especially being absolute trash. It's also such a short album and feels more like an EP, I tbh have no idea what Lana was even trying to say with it on the whole (it does have a specific sonic atmosphere tho I give it that). It really should have just been NFR deluxe or some stand-alone EP of 5-6 tracks

WOW fucking amazing, what a creative and thought-provoking video. Lana is a genius, I had chills watching. Powerful and unsettling. Can't imagine complaining about the "BTS" it's literally the whole concept of the video lol

I love the video, it's very her, beautifully directed, very metaphorical - love the artistic direction - It's expected, but well executed. 

messy how exactly? Looking forward to your editorial and directorial commentary

This is the best summary of the video.
 
It’s crazy people keep calling it a cute BTS video, when it IS the official one! I think this is my favorite video of hers in recent years. 

If she wanted to chart, she could. YTH, Serial Killer, QOD, these are TikTok hits that would do as well outside of the social media and I'm sure her team knows it, she'll be fine. She's making music for herself, not charts, like I don't see her caring about that at all, considering the very strong connection she has with her fans. 

btw at this point shouldn't we worry more about Candy Necklace music video?? and PURIFY LEAK. Let's manifest that.
