Not to get fake deep or anything, but her opening up about being uncomfortable with that lyric now (and also uncomfortably familiar enough with the context to write it originally) struck a chord with me because for awhile I couldn't listen to the song, since not only am I a victim of abuse, but my abuser's name was Jim. So the whole song fucked me up when I first heard it. I avoided it like the plague, and ironically, when I sang along to it, I skipped that same line because it made me feel disgusting. 
 
So I'm glad she's coming to terms with her emotions, her past, and the ability to let things go. I would never judge her for having those relationships (not her fault), those feelings, or writing a song like that. I know where it comes from, even though it wasn't a boyfriend inflicting the abuse in my case. But it puts the entire Ultraviolence era into a new, raw perspective for me. 

One of her best interviews. So genuine. I like that while we're learning information about the new record, the interviewer also dips into past records. It's interesting hearing about Black Beauty and how that song can still be relevant to her current life. I also liked how they talked about the missing lyric in Ultraviolence. I had actually noticed that last year while she was doing her little festival tour, and made a post about it wondering what that was all about. It's interesting to hear now.

Also, one of my undying questions has finally been answered.. I finally know what songs Lana sang at Kimye's wedding.
& I truly hope Lana is doing alright. Her emotions were so raw in this interview. Sending her all my love and positive energy, as always. x

Fuck Anthony Fantano

Imagine Lana performing at the White House and singing When The World Was At War We Kept Dancing. 

I think Heroin is the most honest song Lana has ever written

GBA is a good song but the second half of the chorus is so cringe-worthy like
War is also pretty good (pre-chorus ++++) but the chorus is a little bit too much.
I actually hated Stevie's voice the first time but now it's ok, nothin amazing about BPBP though.

hey y'all I've been following this forum since it was created but was too lazy to make an account. I figured I better introduce myself to the forum I've been reading since like March.
 
So who's ready to twerk to God Bless America. What a patriotic queen we have in Lana

My dream setlist would be full of May Jailer songs and none from BTD

Lana and Stevie ... Legends Only
