How could I forget the only appropriate association, what kind of flop stan am I?

Red: Blood Orange: Lava Yellow: Pee Green: Leaves Blue: Electric Indigo: Turqoise the gem stone Violet: Dolores Umbridge

I never got to hear them, they're already gone... Which make me suspicious that it could actually be demos. Back when the real studio instrumentals from Trilogy, Kissland and BTTM leaked, they appeared and dissappeared from youtube a couple of times. I see a pattern

The whole discussion about Abel going pop is very interesting, and I'm involved in it on another forum as well. I think a lot of old fans (including myself) had a hard time accepting that Abel wanted to go mainstream. We cried for Illangelo to come back, then when he didn't restore Trilogy Abel, we cried for Doc McKinney to come back, but he couldn't do it either. Now I've seen people in all seriousness ask for Jeremy Rose Abel is interested in making pop/mainstream music, so he's gonna do that regardless of the producers he work with. After I accepted that, it was a lot easier for me to appreciate Starboy for what it is: A very good, well produced mainstream record. Sure it's too long and some of the fillers could go, but the tracks are really good individually. I hope The Weeknd one day returns to a more experimental/indie approach, but until then I'm not gonna deprive myself if some quality pop music ☺

Starboy is the best album since Trilogy imo A little long but individually all the tracks are amazing and I love that his embracing a new electro sound while still making bangers Nothing Without You is the only track that I plain dislike Oh and Stargirl Interlude >>>>>>>>>>>> Prisoner Now I wanna hear a whole album of Lana with Doc McKinney as main producer even more, I had a suspicion they would work well together

Interesting! This better be more interesting than Prisoner though.

Flex! Cant't believe you were at the Amoeba Records. How was that? --- Saw her one time in concert during the start of the Paradise Tour and one time at a festival right before Ultraviolence was released.

More like "Lyrics I'm not sure if I misheard or not": I hear: "My Br-Brooklyn Baby" Probably the real lyrics: "I'm a Brooklyn Baby" I hear: "I'm not a trick boy, I'm a trick for you" Probably the real lyrics: "I'm not a trick but Imma trick for you" (which granted make a lot more sense) Enlighten me

Nice to know that other people on here find Lanas voice ASMR inducing, it's such a weird phenomenon I mostly get it from her speaking voice, but some of her songs do it as well, especially in combination with the videos. Burning Desire and Blue Velvet especially. She has very meticulous movements that are somehow relaxing to watch. I would love to hear this but I think the video is unavailable. Is there anyway you could hit me up with an mp3 link?

I often get reminded of more or less specific memories of places, atmospheres and sceneries I've experienced in my life, sometimes from so far back that I can't even clearly remember when it happened, it's just imprinted into my mind and get's stirred up when I listen to Lana. I'm not very good at explaining those memories in a meaningful way so I'm just gonna spare you the second hand embarrasment Two examples of association that are easier to explain for me: Off To The Races: It always made me think of the movie Lolita (the one directed by Adrian Lyne) even before I knew how much Lana was into that novel. God Knows I Tried: The first time I listened to it I had a very clear vision of Lana lounging wistfully in a dark room, with the golden sky outside window, listening to records, being sad and all of that, as she describes in the lyrics. Then she dropped the video for Freak and from 2:05 to around 2:20 that scene is so similar to my vision for GKIT that I was like It was like she had taken images in my brain and put them into a music video. But then again, my associations were influenced by her imagery, and maybe it's not that weird that she would use the same type of imagery for two songs on the same album. it was a freaky experience none the less.

I wan't really feeling Starboy but its growing on me. Icy cool track after repeated listens.

This was litterally me. Heard Video Games and even though I was super intriqued something about her persona just rubbed me the wrong way, so I didn't really wanna admit to myself that her music was great. So I kinda hate-followed her for a while. Eventually she released Off to the Races, and it was over..I couldn't pretend I wasn't a fan any longer Also discovering AKA songs (especially Mermaid Motel) made me realize that she had so much to offer beyond the polished sound and vision of Born to Die.

Thank you for translating! Sweet interview, I wish I had her life

Maybe we're talking past each other, cause I dont suggest a re-vote. I'm just pointing out that it's higly concerning that people apparently don't seem to be fully informed about what they're voting on. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/britons-are-frantically-googling-what-the-eu-is-after-voting-to-leave-it-a7101856.html http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/eu-referendum-british-public-wrong-about-nearly-everything-survey-shows-a7074311.html http://trofire.com/2016/06/24/leader-leave-camp-brexit-admits-hours-vote-large-part-campaign-complete-lie/ Just because democracy is our best bid so far on how to rule a state, doesn't mean that it's perfect and that we can't discuss its shortcomings.

However a democracy where people vote based on wrong information an without even understanding the basic concept of votecasting is problematic as well, and that do somewhat seem to be the case for Brexit.

I'm absolutely pro-democracy and think that the people should hold the ultimate power over the state, but man some of these Leave voters are testing me

Soft LA rock suits her so well where she is in her life right now, like a Fleetwood Mac kinda sound. If she ever went back to a more r'n'b/hiphoppish direction again I would love to hear her work with Illangelo and Doc McKinney - the producers behind The Weeknds first three mixtapes - I would especially love to hear her over the sound of the Thursday mixtae even though I can't tell if it would be too depressing Or maybe something more tropical and flowery with a 60's exotic, luxurious orchestration kinda like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c264mMFc8XI&list=PLFHKGIfpfWxd0vniVSXUBqM17F9zV9ZVF&index=6 I could see her going in so many directions now, and she could probably pull it all of.

Shameless selfpromotion: I did a mashup of Lana and The Weeknd, using the Loft Music instrumental and the vocals from Brooklyn Baby

Yeah, I'm with you. The first audio version she posted on youtube right?

I remember the anticipation on this forum as well, waiting for that damn radio show so it could premiere. Wow, getting emotional here, you guys It all happened during one of the happiest times of my life, so I'm just being a nostalgic old sucker.

So true

Allthough I feel like Honeymoon could have been trimmed a little*, she's consistently been putting out quality material for years, always staying true to her own style and constantly evolving in subtle and not so subtle ways, Honeymoon (the track), The Blackest Day, Freak, Terrence Loves You, Art Deco and even the Burnt Norton Interlude are all so Lana while still adding new layers. *(24, Religion and DLMBM are good songs, but they don't really add anything that's not already on the album I think .And Salvatore just doesn't work for me, just can't get into it. Someone educate me?)

All though Prisoner is not the track I hoped for, I'm so happy to see them work and perform together. They truly are birds of a feather in spirit and it shines through in their respect and adoration for each other <3 /sappybinchout

I downloaded the YTD youtube downloader, and ripped all the videos with that. The quality is ok.

Yaas! I love Snakehips and Tinashe, but I'd never imgained they would collaborate. And the video is so dope.
