    omg just realized how the journey ends
     
    "Freedom to live. Freedom to live means freedom from negative emotions which pull the hero away from living in the moment. Negative emotions such frustration, sadness, shame, fear, depression, doubt and despair are banished and instead he is able to celebrate the victory"
     
    She Gets Free. That's where the title came from.

    24 is iconic though. You're making the right decision.

    This hair color worked the best for her, imo.

    One thing I don't love about Lana and this era... her glorification of Hollywood. Hollywood is disgusting. Women are forced to be underweight, people in power abuse it, no one cares about those below them socially or economically, everything is fake. But she portrays this decay in her songs, too. I honestly think this era is sort of using Hollywood and LA as a microcosm for America at the moment. She sees great things in it, and that great things have come out of it, but there is a lot of injustice and darkness and she wants to try to make things right herself.

    What if the Cherry video is in part with Chuck and Gucci?
     
    Almost like how Blue Velvet video was with H&M

    Ikr? It's very much so possible.
    Yesterday, on Chuck's instagram story, she was with a kitten and a camera in Lana's house, presumably filming scenes, and today, she's in fancy 2012 classic Lana makeup and bejewelled clothes! A Cherry video within a Gucci campaign could be well on it's way, I hope!
     
    Chuck also previously did a Gucci campaign with BØRNS and we all know much Lana has been wearing Gucci this year at events etc., so that makes it even more likely!

    I love reading through everyones opinions on Lana and the album. Ya'll are so well spoken and intelligent, makes me remember why i joined this forum. But yeah i agree with some of you, i think it's nice that Lana has decided to join the real world and speak up about political topics, it's lovely and she's setting a good example towards her younger listeners too. However, i don't think it entirely works for her musically.
     
    Like someone said earlier, Change was her best "woke" track because unlike the other political tracks, it wasn't about society, it was just about her. In the past her art and aesthetics have always heavily relied on herself. HER life, HER interests and HER problems. And i think that's when she truly shines. Because when an artist sings about personal topics, they make it their mission to be great because it's coming from the heart. And it's beneficial to her career, to her fans and to the music. So i would much prefer if she'd stick to her fantasy stories and such, but i'm also fine with whichever path she takes next.

    honestly when i knew she was going to dabble on political themes i expected her to be awkward about it. And I don't think she's addressing this issues as an ultra aware SJW, on the contrary I think she's just discovering these themes and no matter how annoying some of these tumblr teens come off she doesn't have the same thirst of awareness and neither does she spend that much time on the internet looking these things up. Even with her background in philosophy, she probably kept with the metaphysics and maybe theology, and has only a very superficial knowledge of feminist theories, the social contract(s) and politics. I remember I was kinda pissed at the journalist who asked her if she was a feminist, because let's be real the way this question is handled suggests it's just a trick to use with female celebrities for click-baits. It's a damn if I do and damn if I don't situation.    
     
    I believe that with the big changes that happened in 2016 and followed 2017, the outside world was chaotic enough to interfere with her bubble, and now lana del rey can't be Lana Del Rey with these threats to her status quo. So finally it would have been more awkward not to address these issues. I think she thought it would be better to talk about these changes and what she could do about them.

    On one hand, some of her political lyrics sound like Disney lyrics "If we hold on to hope, we'll have a happy ending". 
     
    On the other hand, at least those songs help to change her classic themes about sad love and drugs, which imo are her best themes (see Cherry and Heroin), but some people were growing tired of hearing the same kind of stories on her songs. Same with Love, Lust For Life and the album's cover (maybe she won't be portrayed as exclusively sad by the GP. A boy can dream)

    I think what makes political Lana awkward is the fact that she was always behind this glass, behind this fuzzy filter that separated her from us & she never spoke too much on social media and was generally in her own, tiny bubble and seeing the world through her own lana-esque lens and that helped her aesthetic and imagery so much as well as persona in general
     
    So when she finally stepped out of it I feel like we're shocked to see what she's really like (obviously we won't ever meet her like she is on daily basis but you know what I mean)
     
    I was excited for the woke-hippie aesthetic but some of these lyrics DO sound cheesy and cliche although I can see her trying to expand herself and grow as an artist so I'm still curious what she'd bring in the future but my overall point is she literally took some magic out of it and that's why all this feels weird

    For the next album i want neil krug doing the photoshoot with like 15 pictures of lana in 3 different looks and of course some nature imagery for the aesthetics 
    But probably lana will scrap them and take 5 pictures with chuck in jeans and a black sweater
