Chelsea Hotel No. 2
New Entry (36 points)
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel
You were talking so brave and so sweet
Giving me head on the unmade bed
While the limousines wait in the street
Those were the reasons and that was New York
We were running for the money and the flesh
And that was called love for the workers in song
Probably still is for those of them left

Summersault liked a post in a topic by ConeyIslandQueen262 in SONG OF THE WEEK (#2)
When I bought BTD just a few days after it had been released, I already knew VG and BTD because of the radio, so OTTR was the first song that I didn't knew when I listened to the album and I immediately knew that it was a fantastic decision to buy BTD !
I was fascinated by the unique, poetic and beautiful lyrics and the way her voice changed again and again during the song. I really love that glamour gangster feeling the song has. Imo OTTR represents Lana's image at the beginning of her "real" career (end of 2011). She called herself a "Gangster Nancy Sinatra" and I totally feel this in lines like " Likes to watch me in the glass room bathroom, Chateau Marmont, slippin' on my red dress, puttin' on my makeup, glass film, perfume, cognac, lilac fumes" or "My old man is a thief and I'm gonna stay and pray with him 'til the end".
The interview @@SitarHero posted helps a lot with the Lanalysis. If we can trust her words ( ), OTTR describes the lifestyle she used to have when she was with that man, that means they lived in LA and moved to Vegas because he liked to gamble. Lana wasn't talented and that's why she just went swimming all the time. This would even match the lyrics "Swimming pool glimmering darling, white bikini off with my red nail polish, watch me in the swimming pool bright blue ripples you". Swimming pools seem to play a big role in OTTR and as she spent most of her time swimming in Vegas, we have an explanation for that.
So I think, the basic idea of the song is definitely true but I'm almost sure that Lana added many gangster details to the lyrics.
Looking at Barrie I can't imagine that Lana once dated a guy with a "gold chain on" but who knows, maybe her taste for men changed .
Right now I'm actually wondering about something that I never really realized. I know that alcohol is mentioned sometimes on BTD in songs like Carmen and This Is What Makes Us Girls and these deal with her teenage years. Lana says she stopped drinking when she was about 18. In OTTR it seems like her man is drinking ("black Cristal", "cognac") but maybe she does too ("Bacardi chasers") ?
Also she is talking about "Riker's Island", so like already mentioned in the Lanalysis thread she could be talking about K and her younger years (she mentions Coney Island which is also used in Carmen for example, a song that probably describes her lifestyle when she was about 17).
When I look at her writing style, I would say that it was written with the rest of the BTD album, which means that it isn't old. And of course she can still write a song about K today but....
We assume that she dated him before the Sirens album, so she couldn't be older than 17. First of all, her parents sent her to a boarding school because of her alcohol addiction and I don't think they would let her go to Vegas just for fun and her school also wasn't in LA, right ? Furthermore she said she wasn't good at gambling but if the song talks about K, she wouldn't even been allowed to enter a casiono. Oh and she says she has a "Las Vegas past" but according to the interview this can't be true at all.
I know my post is pretty confusing but I had to say it.
OTTR is one of Lana's best songs but I wouldn't be surprised if it is totally made up and she also lied in the interview
@ I love the form you posted but I think people will discuss the song better without one. Don't judge me if I'm wrong

Wish they could have seen you when we booed you off in Williamsburg
You’re hurt, I know my words don’t hurt, yeah

Thinking that you’re number one
You’re so funny, ‘cause honey, you’re not

I still like Cheryl's music but you're right: her songs are always "cool" mainstream pop songs in which she sounds sexy.
Ghetto Baby doesn't suit her at all. The song is a Lana song and has a story but Cheryl sings the lyrics like they aren't special at all....
