    I wouldn't be surprised if our Queen decides to wear a bin bag dress with black adidas leggings underneath or something. She's proven that this era really IS the opposite of Born to Die, fashion-wise too.

    Ok, I've listened to the album and here are my categorisations upon first impression.
     
    Perfect (10/10): sorry, nothing here
     
    Pretty Good (7-9/10): Look What You Made Me Do, Dancing With Our Hands Tied, This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things, Call It What You Want, New Year's Day
     
    Mediocre (4-6/10): Don't Blame Me, ...Ready For It?, I Did Something Bad, Gorgeous, Delicate, So It Goes..., Getaway Car, King of My Heart, Dress
     
    TERRIBLE, please delete from the face of this earth immediately (0-3/10): End Game
     
     
    Overall, I am pretty disappointed. I really wanted to like the album and I gave it a listen with an open mind, but most songs just fell flat for me. I was actually totally here for her 'bad girl' era, but other than LWYMMD she totally failed to live up to my expectations. The album feels too "tame" for the image she was trying to put out. If she was going to do this sort of image she needed to go big or go home and she just did not deliver the darkness I wanted. Some of the production elements are pretty weird and not fitting for the song or her style, such as those annoying voice filters, and the bass has been upped so much that it actually hurts your ears and feels weird to listen to.  A lot of the songs sound almost the exact same as well and it just feels so unoriginal and uncreative. Lyrics are also pretty boring and actually a lot of them make absolutely no sense, plus her delivery is quite uninspired and boring as well. Her rap/talking style of delivery on this album just doesn't work for me, and takes away a lot of the emotion that she used to have with her older country songs which I liked a lot more as they felt a lot more authentic and genuine, whereas Reputation feels very calculated and formulaic, resulting in possibly her most uninspired work yet. If there wore songs in the vein of "New Year's Day" I'd literally love this album so much because that's literally the only song on the album with any sort of genuine emotion being expressed.

    Dude, I don't care what your political views are. I cannot tell you how many family members/relatives and friends I have that disagree with me on almost every political/social issue but I do not silence them.
     
    I believe you should be banned because you are supporting conversion therapy, sexual assault and violence, and insulting minorities, and that is unacceptable and I'm pretty sure that would be against the rules of this site, regardless of your political views.

    I love this @@vodkaa, i'll keep it short tho. 
     
    the song is cute and the instrumental is gorgeous on its own but I still think Lana and Abel should have been capable of coming up with better, at least in terms of execution. I still don't fully understand what she wanted to convey in this track, since in the video she seems to put down a black notebook before getting up and dance with death/the edge lord/the weeknd, anyway if this wasn't the title track and if lana had made more videos I would like it more. Lana and Abel singing in a high register is something of a     for me, i prefer her spoken word and his "secrets" voice.

  21. LaMartine liked a post in a topic by Cloudbusting in Things you associate with each era   
    AKA - The 90's. Nevada. Of course it reminds me of a city's streets at late night. Trailer parks. Gas stations. Subways. Beer cans.
    BTD- The 60's. Promiscuity (lmao), ghettos. Champagne. Cars and roses. Heavy make up.
    P- Los Angeles sunsets. Beaches. Rich people.
    UV- 70's (only because of Brooklyn B and the guitars) and the 90's again. In Brooklyn and California, respectively. Hard drugs. Rock. Chaos. Jeans and boots, and obviously leather jackets. Like obviously the best aesthetic.
    HM- The 50's. A lot of pink. Tons of pink. Old movies and orchestras. Haze.
    LFL- Right in this decade, even though the photoshoots are very 60's. I also need time to associate more things to it but the moon is a good start.
