I always thought this song was addressed to the boyfriend of hers that passed away, and he was the one that told her “every man gets his wish” — but she feels a bit misled by that sentiment following his passing. The lines “now you’re gone”, “where is mine?” and “were you lying?” seem to suggest he was part of that wish, but because he’s not with her anymore, she didn’t get her wish in the end. She’s almost in denial about his fate with that last line, in particular. A fun track on the surface but really earnest and heartbreaking when you peel back the layers <3

One of her best songs from my favourite album sung in one of the most beautiful places in the world…

The way Ultraviolence completely nailed Lana’s vision of “west coast fusion with underground jazz culture” — it’s so apparent and apt for every track, and sonically, it’s just so her. You can feel a perfect marriage of NY and California all over it. I can’t wait to hear how location presents itself on this next album

Lana and her dresses when in Italy are the style inspiration.

She is glowing <3 I LOVE her dress and have been loving her designer bags lately — Chanel YSL queen

She’s back in Portofino and called it “home”! The last time Lana was in LA, NYC, and Portofino back-to-back was during the making of Honeymoon!

She looks so beautiful, and what a gorgeous wedding destination! Congratulations to the happy couple and wishing them a lifetime of goodness! 💐

I’ll copy and paste the caption for you below (the photo is just the iconic smiling shot of her taken on set of Fuck It I Love You / The Greatest)! @kath3000: Attention! This Fall, your favorite professor(me!) is teaching a course at NYU's Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music on Lana Del Rey. In the course, l'Il be unpacking her iconic career and music, the baroque pop era that she helped usher in, and the impact she's had on artists that followed, from Billie Eilish and Lorde to my beloved Halsey. I am SO excited to teach this course!!! #LanaDelRey #nyu #clivedavisinstitute

You and me both girl

There’s going to be an LDR course at NYU this fall! https://www.instagram.com/p/CdMXw7AOEN5/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

She really is the Queen of New York City…

She looks so good. Everything is on point

Oh that’s too bad! Mine stops and flows right into the next track so hopefully it’s a bug that resolves itself. Maybe a CD will be your best bet after all lol

There’s a way to import it from Apple Books to your Music Library on Mac! What I did was copy Violet from Apple Books to my Mac’s desktop, and then I changed the file’s extension from m4b to m4a. Because it is protected, you can’t change it internally, but the name of the file will be “Track 1.m4b” — and I just changed the name to “Track 1.m4a”. Then, I could easily import it into my Music Library since it was an m4a file, and could simply adjust the starting and stopping timestamps to sync with each poem’s length. However, because it imports as one long 40 min track and not by each poem individually, I had to adjust the track to LA Who Am I to Love You’s length and starting and stopping timestamps and then go back and add the 40 min track again but this time adjust it to The Land of 1,000 Fires’s length and starting and stopping timestamps, and so on with the other poems. Just remember that each timestamp is relative to the poem that came before it! Hope it works out!

Awww! I have missed you too! <333

I was rewatching Lana’s livestream from the Blue Banisters release day, and when speaking in Spanish with @/lanaisababe, she mentions that she spent time in the northern part of Spain, saying “Del Norte”. Now, I know this is purely coincidental - but she said that she went to Spain in between summers at boarding school because she couldn’t come home to Lake Placid (and we can infer why from what she’s shared about her family of origin trauma and the context of other things discussed in that livestream). Following some of the songs on BB and what we know about Behind the Iron Gates, could it be that “Del Norte County” or “Del Norte” is indeed in some way related to LDR9, and perhaps it’s representative of her shedding more light on her familial and personal history (and perhaps the dynamics that preceded her time in Spain at fifteen)? There’s something significant about the north for Lana (northern Spain, Northern California, and the “north country” she referred to at the Variety Awards when speaking about her grandma: Lake Placid). Just some reaching for today lol - but I thought that was funny. I doubt it’s related, but it’s fun to think about!

I love that she’s amplifying the wonderful work being done here

Nobody talk to us, we’re manifesting

NorCal reminds me so much of the Canadian west coast (which is where I’m from) so whether legit or not, I will gladly await an album in that vein!

Does anyone think the recent songwriting is a good thing? I love Lana Del Rey. I think she’s a really interesting artist.
