  1. It's honestly not that deep. Everyone has acces to twitter and google and just by looking up some signed items u'd see that they don't look fake. Ugly? Yes some of them are definitely not nicely written and carefully placed but there's also items she signed that look even less like her nice autographs than the signed lfl stuff does.

    I personally think it might be cramps and sloppy handwriting, the movement seems consistent enough; but if people really had to argument for fake signatures they could do it better.


  2. Hey guys sorry if this is annoying But I can’t find a thread on the signed lithos/cds. This thread is derailed all the time anyway.

     

    I joined an autograph collectors group because I saw it mentioned along with speculation that her signatures are fakes. I searched the group for the lana topic and got nothing. So I finally asked and this guy tagged me in a discussion about Demi sigs being fake (its obvious) and Lana is mentioned briefly in the thread. Plus this link https://live.autographmagazine.com/forum/topics/universal-music-group-preorder-controversy-questionable-demi?xg_source=activity&id=3524372%3ATopic%3A1123575&page=3#comments . The comments don’t reveal much except that these people judge the lana fan base and think every young woman who’s famous is only that way because they’re manufactured.

     

    The link says the sigs are fake because they appear to have been done slowly. The guy that is arguing with me on this group says they’re fake because the A’s are dead giveaways....her A’s have always looked the way they look so i really don’t know what he’s getting at. Now he tagged his friend to do his arguing for him and this friend is a rabid pop head based on his fb profile and I already see posts that he thinks the sigs are fake.

     

    I’ve seen a couple busted looking lithos but I’ve given the benefit of the doubt because I know if it were me I’d get bored af and start fucking around with the look of my sig. obviously I’m leaning towards them being legit but there could be something to this. I know lana tweeted that they’re real.

     

    Thoughts?

    at the end of the day it's always possible that signatures can be fake, but i really don't like these people's attitudes and the fact they're so quick to throw big words like "fraud" and "pretending to care about their fans" and "just a bunch of pretty faces ussd to make money by rich powerful men. That is what most of the pop industry is...", so insightful. Even the premises describing how low priced these signed items are and all of that seemed tailored to fit into a narrative, so I feel they wrote them off as guilty without much of a thought. So, not sure we should be taking their expertise at face value. analysing handwriting, to know their authenticity and have info on the graphology is a long meticulous job and it's not even an actual exact science. If some people have money and time to spare I'd suggest to hire an unbiased professional who will then analyse a selection of actual litographs, and not just pictures, to debunk these rumours and if it's true it will help scaring off artists who do that. Also, it's possible to write a letter very differently, even in the same word, and I have uncomfortable memories of high speed writing 8/10 pages during less 2 hours classes with my so called penmanship just turning into ugly undefined scrawls. So, they could be right in their conclusions but I don't approve of their methods. I know that artists get defensive and lie continuously ( :hoe: ) and that they don't owe us pieces of them but it'd be very disappointing if the signatures were fake, if it's true it should be stopped and the damage repaired.   


  3. Has this been shared yet? Anyway, NME made a weird list of the best singles tracks of the year: http://www.nme.com/blogs/nme-blogs/nmes-best-tracks-year-2017-2161431/

    • 19. Methyl Ethel – Ubu
    • 18. Queens Of The Stone Age – The Way You Used To Do
    • 17. Katy Perry – Chained To The Rhythm

    As you can see, Lana is at #14 with Love even though there are at least 6 tracks better than Love on LFL. Also there are at least 3 tracks better than Green Light in Melodrama so yeah, it's pretty much the best singles instead of the best tracks. But it's understandable I guess, they won't hear the entire albums and they will select the ones that people remember the most. 

     

    judging some of these choices ... wow NME that's so basic. But I can see why they choose big singles rather than deep cuts. Imagine thinking this whole list was the crème de la crème of music in 2017  :awkney:  :oopna:


  4. Pawn Shop Blues

    Jump, Hollywood, Cruel World...

     

    In which song is Lana singing about wind, sun, supernovas, the sea and a golden car?

     

    Hollywood? 

     

    In which song does lana talks about being in a party dress and hence has her lover thinking of the holidays? 


  5.  

     



    Y'all all saying how good she looks, while I'm just sitting here wondering how the FUCK her managers won a "Best Manager" award after all the leaks, delays, poor handling of shipping and promotion???  :oprah3:  :uh:  :whoopi:  :wtf2:


    ShowySeveralAntarcticfurseal.gif

    that's some hot tea right there but the other day 30stm won an award despite not releasing new stuff since 2013 while in that span of time lana had 3 critically acclaimed albums, we almost stop thinking about some of these things. i don't even know how managers get to be nominated, maybe they were simply because despite lana making what is considered "niche" music she still has a big platform and didn't compromise most of her artistical choices (??)


  6. off topic but is this like a demo version? her vocals are kinda different..

     

    i could be off base but i hear more guitar in here? if these are two different versions, then on the album the trap beats really cover the guitar which is a shame and listening to this i have the impression the guitar is louder. it could be two different mixes or the recording altering the sound perception  :oprah3:

     

    or maybe i'm hearing stuff lmao 


  7. I love American but that part is so... bleh. :toofunny: Like, "yep, you clearly don't know what you're saying". :P

     

    damn that was sauvage 

     

     

     

    Ah ah ah ah

    Ah ah ah ah

    Cacciatore (????)

    La da da da da

    La da da da da

    Limousines

    Ah ah ah ah

    Ah ah ah ah

    Ciao amore

    La da da da da

    La da da da da

    Soft ice cream (????) 

     

    the song is beautiful but sitting here and reviewing these lyrics is awkward, and there are more weird lyrics like that
