LOL what can I say? I am obsessed with this woman

It looks exactly like it’s from the second to third week of October 2018, the same week she teased Cinnamon Girl

Happy 1 year to Blue Banisters 💙 This record means so much to me. Its healing themes of looking inward through family origins and embracing community in spite of that are very inspirational to me. I love the familiarity of the older tracks and very much value the poetry of the newer ones—this record is an incredibly rewarding listen that I will cherish in the years to come. 🍂

Mark Ronson would fit so nicely into her current sonic landscape. Hoping their little exchanges during Gucci season in Italy this past May turned into something more (and that one day, his demo of Terrence Loves You sees the light)

Same! Cardigan is the one I like too and I totally thought this collab would be in that vein since Cardigan sounds like it’s trying to emulate Lana. Oh well - at least Lana gets her coin

I think the song is lyrically too saccharine for me to enjoy. I really wanted to love it as Lana is (quietly) a part of it! I guess all this song shows me is that I respect Taylor as an artist but I’m just not her audience.

I am so sorry to hear about what happened to you. I hope that never happens again, or to anyone for that matter. Sending you love and hope you’re doing okay ❤️

@Rorman Nockwell your points are so well-constructed. What you’re adding to the discourse around leaked songs here—which, let’s face it, is a huge part of the site regardless of morality—is invaluable. I hope as a community we follow suit with what you’re saying because it’s much needed and really important. Thank you <3

I thought this turned out beautifully —

Oh for sure! I wasn’t referring to the attack of people at all, nor was I blaming any users here. My comment is a general statement about leaks - nothing to do with the lovely members here <3

As fans, it is natural that we would consume the content of old unreleased songs — and Lana herself has acknowledged them as such, which certainly enables our rationale to indulge in these throwaway tracks in some way. Nonetheless, this situation reframes even that. It is stolen content, period—and the monetization of it from leakers and the politics between respective leakers regarding the music sends a message to Lana, inadvertently or not. It is essentially taking a huge proverbial defecation on her honest work, regardless of its intended release or not.

I am just devastated to hear this. A privacy breach of your personal life coupled with the loss of all your hard work…I hope she’s opened a case about this and it’s being looked into. Sending her good thoughts. Her courage to speak up about it and trudge forward is extremely admirable when this has happened time and time again.

I saw that! And I still think it’s random lol

I want to know where the idea to compare falling in love to snow falling on a beach came from. It’s a moot point to not love the song, I know - but everything about this (especially the titular motif) just feels so random…

LMAO that’s how you know the general consensus is *strong* with this one!

Oh well. If it’s true, then I guess it’s par for the course. Lana is a humble queen who loves to spotlight guests on her own songs and then still let them shine when she’s invited on others’ (“God Save Our Young Blood” with Børns, “Woman” with Cat Power, “Living with Myself” with Jonathan Wilson).

She is just radiating beauty. Glowing queen. Such 2017 vibes! <3

I’m 1000% with you! All that does is continue to define women by the men in their life and trivialize their accomplishments. I know that so many people who hate on Courtney hate on her without citing reasons, and that points to the general cultural conception of her that is ultimately trademarked by Kurt’s death and her alleged role in it. It’s simply the partaking in a witch-hunt on women (and we’ve seen that with many women linked to powerful men, most recently Amber Heard who obviously is no saint, but is still a victim who was wronged, nonetheless. That is another conversation though lol).

I didn’t know this video existed. That is obviously terrible and not okay, and is absolutely deserving of criticism. That said, the general cultural shunning of Courtney that I was referring to makes no reference to this incident and instead positions her merely as Kurt’s overbearing and instigative wife who drove him to death——that is what warrants an apology to her, in my opinion.

Omg lol! Look at us in sync! 🤞

I much prefer Hole over Nirvana, though I love them both. I really think a lot of the hatred towards Courtney Love was driven by misogyny and the world owes her an apology.

Manifesting a January 2023 release….🤞
