no but you should save that idea for an another opportunity or project for sure, because that would be such a serve
 

It's so interesting to read your thoughts on this! I'm super glad I'm on a site where I can freely express what I feel towards Lana. I've been on here since 2017 and it's beautiful. Anyways:
Every time I listen to Born to Die, I remember the first time I listened to it. It was 2012 and a girl from my school sent me the video link through Facebook DMs and it was so beautiful. I was mesmerized. She sounded like nothing I had ever heard and she looked like the most beautiful woman in the world , her gesture, her elegance, the expression in her eyes. I fell in love with her music and lyrics and with the English language in general because of this song.
It's still the first song I put on when I want to listen to Lana and there are no words to explain what she has made me feel through these ten years of admiration. I remember when she came to my country the first time and I couldn't attend and I sobbed and sobbed, I was so sad.
When she was about to drop LFL, I was in a very toxic relationship and my ex also made fun of me for loving Lana... That made me very self conscious about my love for her and he made me feel stupid because of it. We broke up right after Lust for Life dropped so she was my companion through that time.
Truth is, her music has been by my side during my teenage years and now in my adulthood and I look at her and think that if she can go through life while experiencing those thoughts and moods she talks about in her music, I can go through mine; it feels weird because I've taken her words as mirrors and advice and as mottos and...  anyways, it's nice to see her grow and when I look back in time I get all emotional because I also have a parasocial relationship with her and it's funny because she's closer to my mom's age than she is to mine.  

I want to squeeze her cheeks so bad 

Please Lana, I know you read us. Release something 🛐

I've been so bored on winter break that I started reading a thesis on Lana's celebrity status. It's super interesting and made me want to take my Music subject at the teacher-training college I go to so I can write about her but like... I will be teaching English to elementary school children...  
Me to my students: when she says my pussy tastes like Pepsi cola she's referencing the American dream by putting herself in the light of consuming...

Ok I sent my submission but i forgot to say I'm also super into reading I'm glad my mom died, I don't wanna do it alone bc it'll be so depressing 
 

I don’t think celebrity memoirs should be considered because they are almost always ghostwritten

I really enjoyed reading your post, and this is such a neat prompt for a thread (also general content warning for potentially sensitive content ) also I had an edible & am feeling open so lol
 
It’s honestly funny to me now, but I remember hearing NFR in full and feeling shocked at how much it was mirroring my life. 
 
Like, my exactly 6’2”, eccentric, and emotionally immature musician ex (NFR) had just cheated on me and abruptly decided to permanently leave the US to further his musical career in music despite it being the demise of our relationship (California and TNBAR—the demo, mostly) and left a public letter addressed to me about his mental health because of our breakup (California), but I never responded to it….and the fact that he worked as a bartender to save up for his move. I have to laugh
 
Truthfully, my mental health was fairly awful before the breakup even happened (The Bell Jar was my comfort book lmfao), but not long after it, I met my current fiancé, and I finally began feeling “hope” despite my circumstances. Shortly after, Love Song came on in a late-night car ride with him, and I’ll probably always think of that night when I hear it. The rest is history  
 
so excited to see where her music is headed next!!!
 

I can't be the only one that feels a close para-social sentiment towards Lana's music, and so I wanted to cultivate a kind of safe space where we can share/ or even just talk about (even to/ for our own selves) the listening experiences we've had around Lana's music, and the impact it might have/ t've had for us. 

I had a long day and I usually just push myself (it also makes for good sleep), so towards nighttime, Lana's music has been a calming atmosphere when I don't want or really need something as aggressively stimulating. It's just the right amount of many things. 

I've mentioned this before also, in how some of Lana's music just happened to be released in times of my life, where I'd be experiencing similar things, and being much to myself most of the time, having her music accompany thru similar circumstances really helped me recharge, and ultimately, heal. 

I understand that many parts of the forum won't want to share these sort of things, but I thought it might be a nice space to have every once in a while. 

Share some moments you feel comfortable sharing around Lana's music and those moments if you wanted to below.

I'm in!! This is such a cool idea. I've been trying to read the same book for months now and I'm bored

Come one, come all, to this tragic affair!
 

 
We're starting a book club!
 
So, I'm going to post a survey each time we finish a book and we'll pick the next one!! Maybe we'll do like 50-100 pages per week, I don't want to exclude anyone if they read slower than someone else.
 
Also, there's a good source for ebooks if you can't afford to buy books or don't live near a library (libgen), check reddit for the official link (since it's technically piracy, I don't want to link it here)
 
I know @DeadSeaOfMercury is interested, if you're interested please post here and you can join us!!
 
Please fill out this survey!
https://form.jotform.com/222215483579057
 
Please suggest books here!
 
So far, it looks like people are pretty much interested in everything, so please submit your suggestions!!!
 
For the first book, we'll be reading 
 

 

I love how most “LDR9 leaks” these days are basically keywords taken out from this whole thread: deep vocals, orchestra, surfy, not too much piano, honeymoon production, psychedelic, jazzy, cinematic, etc.  It’s like a competition to get the most attention by knowing what people want 

Please Lana, I know you read us. Release something 🛐

I get the feeling she's been very inspired by Honeymoon lately. The last post on her main was from the HBTB music video, she returned on her Honeymoon account, she sang God Knows I've Tried in Italy (she did also sing BTD songs, but only with fans, this was the one time we know of where she chose one song to sing of her own accord), and she mentioned Honeymoon several times in the W Mag interview. Not sure what this means/how it relates to her new sound or lyrics, but those are my thoughts. 

"Honeymoon. I guess it's the word that sums up the ultimate dream. I mean, life is a honeymoon, y know? Life, love, paradise, freedom…that's forever. With someone, or just with yourself. It just felt right, kind of the way Ultraviolence felt right before that, when I had a little more rage [laughs]. I love the concept that life is a dream and you curate your own space so that it becomes your heaven. It's all contingent upon your state of mind, which is why I don't always do interviews—because it puts me in a bad fucking mood. I really try and keep my world beautiful but it's tricky. We're at a point in time when life truly can be what you want it to be.”

shakira is waaaaaay too underrated imo. she’s a mastermind for fijación oral, vol. 1 and oral fixation, vol. 2, but all her albums are really good. i adore the aesthetics for the oral fixation eras. she’s just mother!
