Me every time I click this thread: 

Yesterday, Lana was hanging out at Cheech's Pizza in Los Angeles, California with a man believed to be Miles Kane. The poster of the photo said she thought she may have been filming a video at Little Dom's, an Italian Bistro where professional video shoots are common. The poster also described the pair as "weird."
I thought her hair seemed like it had swoopy side bangs in the selfie from today and now to see it in this photo confirms it... & I am here for it  

Thank god I got the site fixed before this oh my god

Due to my kid getting a bilateral ear infection, I finally got the chance today at work to listen to this properly without an infant squalling over it.

Space is what makes this song work, to the extent that it does. And I'm not talking about the galactic kind cars float through in the video. The entire strength of the song rests on the anticipation created by the sparseness of the arrangment-- lazily unnecessary and unnecessarily lazy Emile flourishes aside. (What the hell do the gun sounds have to do with anything?) For me, the highlight of the production is the brilliantly simple but effective use of that xylophone or chime sound or whatever accenting the first of each of those note pairs. But overall, the song is not particularly inspired (in Lana voice) lyrically, melodically, or structurally. I suspect the song title was truncated to dampen the obvious comparison to "Young & Beautiful" as it is not too surprisingly, given Rick's involvement, reminiscent of Nowels leaks-era production. I am surprised by how much, erm, love it's been getting from pop music critics typically cool to Lana. But maybe all it takes is production that mostly gets out of the way for people to appreciate the loveliness of her voice, however reverb-drenched.

As for the video, while I still don't think it completely works, it is the anti-Tropico. Like Elvis, Marilyn, and John Wayne in the garden of Eden, classic cars floating in space is the essence of Lana's aesthetic distilled, what with her love of things vintage, SpaceX and Tesla and all, but it's not as heavy-handed, and doesn't scream bloated budget (though it may have been) or self-indulgent as much as Tropico. (I think Tropico would have worked better as three distinct music videos.) And thank the heavens there's no fucking monologue on this celestial jukebox this time around.

As a first taste of the album, it's no "West Coast" or "Honeymoon". To be honest, I'm a bit concerned by her bringing a bigger pop producer on board in Benny Blanco and her comment that she made her previous albums for herself and this one is "for the fans". I don't at all hate it-- I'm just underwhelmed-- but I'm crossing my fingers "Love" is a bit of a head-fake the way HBTB was, because if this is going to be the direction of the entire album, this longtime fan would probably prefer she go back to making music for herself.

I want her to call us "customers" or "clients". 

K can we talk about how the song blows lol

Every time I think I'm getting over Lana or i'm like "my stan dayz are ova" she does somethin like this and pulls me right back in.

I hope they locate water on the planet and we get reused footage of the MTBWT girls for the 3rd time

This pisses me off tbh. We've said so many times for pages and pages that this is happening. Now some random fan account on twitter confirms it and it's believable? You think we're just intentionally trying to stop you having a good time here?
 
Damn guys, little more respect for Elle t b h .

disappointed in you all today. 40 pages?? Really??

cant believe i can still get so disappointed despite having very low expectations

that video cleared my pores and gave me a 4.0 gpa

Don't try to gaslight people's fears. There are very real threats to a lot of our safety. In 2 months we're going to have a government run by people who are anti-gay, anti-trans anti-choice anti-Islam anti-Latinx anti-Black anti-Native  anti-women, pro-pipeline, pro-conversion, pro-war, pro-racial profiling...
We were just starting to make progress and all of that could be taken away. Just because something isn't going to personally effect you or your country doesn't mean these aren't real threats. Trump preaches an anti-Islam rhetoric extremely similar to the anti-Jewish rhetoric that nearly killed my entire family. Don't try to tell me with the full power of the government he can't cause a lot of harm. 

people literally took the time out of their day to go to the polls and write in Harambe for president. imagine having this privelege to joke around while other people are fearing deportation, gay marriage getting annulled, police force getting stronger while innocent african americans are getting killed, etc. truly tragic

Hi everyone,
As promised, here is my introduction video! It's a bit long (I tend to babble), so I suggest switching the speed to 1.5 or 2 if you don't really want to sit through a 16 minute video. Or you don't have to watch it at all, just if you kind of want a heads up with what's going on!
The video covers some basic things about me & my relationship with Lana (0:00 - 4:26), my plans for the site (4:27 - 12:19), and ways you can help (12:20 - 16:11)
Also, I apologize for sounding so obnoxious in this video!! I'm always told my voice is quiet, so I tried to be louder, but ended up just sounding really annoying.
Anyway.. here it is!

Lots & lots of love 

how could you perform cola, blue jeans and carmen instead of THE BLACKEST DAY, SALVATORE AND MTWBT

no

Two years ago, Lana Del Rey released "West Coast", a psychedelic, Dan Auerbach-produced masterpiece. The song was just a taste of the Ultraviolence sound - lo-fi vocals with thousands of layers and filters over dreamy guitars, drunken drums and druggy effects.

 



 

Remember the legendary radio premiere?

Lyrical mediocrity compared to other work -if HM was Lana's debut album, I'm sure 90% of you would not be here as a fan today. That's the way I think of it. BTD is the reason most of us are here anyways.
