Eerie synth 80s horror meets Disney/Bambi opening credits. Top 5 LDR songs ever 

After 7 years, this still remains my favourite title track, and one of her best songs. In the top 3 for sure 💐

this really is an improvement from the blue banisters title track we truly won here yall... we won

sad but sexy 

been wondering if this is about the same person she referred to in MAC — "you took my sadness out of context". she mentionned mariners' being (partly or fully, can't rmb) about this dude who thought they were both messed up, that they had this thing in common. but she actually thought she had her life together by that point in her life, so she didn't recieve that comment very well. anyway, fishtail makes me think of this lil story. love this and love her!

"She made special mention of one such individual, Jane Powers. “She’s a real estate agent. I met her seven years ago in New York and I loved her. I really wanted to be a singer. I would say, ‘I don’t know what’s going to happen.’ She’d say, ‘God didn’t save you from drowning just to beat you up on the shore. All you really need is patience when you have persistence.’ She’s just an angel.”

mentioning aphrodite (a goddess from my island born on a rock in the sea which is still there i drove past it but never went near it) on a song where she is talking about committing suicide by drowning in the ocean but instead she was reborn in the sea like aphrodite and became the legend she is today
 

Bare Feet On Linoleum: Would the magnitude of the scale of the sculptures take the place of the warm embrace I've never got
 
Fingertips: Exotic places and people don't take the place of being your child 
 

I think Dark Paradise and Fingertips are connected, and she has been talking about her su*cide attempt in the ocean:
 
"All my friends tell me I should move on
I'm lying in the ocean, singing your song
...I wish I was dead (dead, like you)"
 
"When I was fifteen, naked, next-door neighbors did a drive-by
Pulled me up by my waist, long hair to the beach side
I wanted to go out like you, swim with the fishes"
 
On these following lines she is talking about a rebirth, as she was saved from the ocean and became a star she is today; like the goddess Aphrodite was born from the sea:
 
"Let it crash over me like the waves in the sea
Call me Aphrodite as they bow down to me"
 

This and grandfather build so well to that climax-moment in their respective songs that I just love hearing. Here the song reaches it's high point with the line "my sister's first born child" which is very telling. She must love that baby so much.

MOTHER IS MOTHERING

The piano f*cking hits and “So you say there’s a chance for us?”
 
… I just love this song so much. It’s the Lana opening I had been waiting for, for years.
 
 

No idea wtf you’re saying but slay 

There's no "worst" song NFR. It's simply a flawless album. The only song I think can be argued, is NBAR. But I quite like what she did with it for the record. 
 
But saying VB, MAC, and California are the "worst" is just tasteless! "Least favorite" would be more appropriate for what you're trying to express. None of those songs are "bad" at all.

Some of you need to move to the unpopular opinions thread because wow  Anyways stream Mac, VB and California 

i thought the alligator in the blue jeans video was real for longer than i’d like to admit

Simply a lie 

i tried to get into Mtn Dew cause i wanted to feel the song on a deeper lever and i convinced myself that i liked it for a while but now years later i can confess it takes like motor oil 
but i also did the same with Cherry Cola and now i fucking love it 

It's not really a misheard lyric but this made me remember that when I sing/hum UV during the day, my mind says "Blessed it is this onion" and I'm like
 

Loving you was really hot 

Theory for who Jim and Bill are
 
I do think Lana uses these names for multiple people but I believe the OG versions of Jim and Bill are Mikey Martin (Jim) and Rob Dubuss (Bill)
 
Mikey Martin
 
In a 2006 post by someone named Dalene, she claims that Mikey Martin is an extremely abusive person who has relations with Lizzy Grant... obviously it lines up with abuse Lana said she has faced by someone named Jim (Ultraviolence, Beauty Player, Hundred Dollar Bill, Smarty, etc.)
 
TW: heavy claims 
 
Rob Dubuss
 
There's not much on him, but he comes to mind with Bill because him and Mikey were friends and they worked together during shows
 
 
The main reason I think they would have been Bill and Jim is because of this interview where Lizzy says she drives around with Bill and Jim going to 7/11's
I would assume she used these name to protect their privacy, but there's really no one else who would have been friends enough to drive around together with Lana, besides Jimmy Gnecco and Reeve Carney who were also all friends, but there's no claims of Jimmy or Reeve being abusive so that theory sorta falls flat... 
 
Lana allegedly dated both of them in 2006, staying friends with Rob and could maybe explain the song Get Drunk, as well as a couple lyrics in it...
 
"I am sleeping with your best friend
How do you like me now"
 
Rob and Mikey both dating Lana right after each other
-
"Come on, get drunk
You know you wanna
I am and you can
Won't tell no one about it"
 
Rob, Mikey, and Lana were all apart of a group called "ROAD RECOVERY" comprised of entertainment industry professionals whose lives have been touched by addiction and other adversities and now wish to make a positive impact on the lives of others. Road Recovery hosted many benefit concerts where Lizzy also played at a couple times with Tim Barr as said in this interview https://www.theaquarian.com/2014/05/21/an-interview-with-silverbird-dancing-with-the-spirits/
It seems like these lyrics seem to be Lana telling Mikey or Rob who were in recovery to drink with her in secret. 
 
I think thats all...

Is this meant to say something cause it’s blank for me  you ate
