100% agree. I love that she now owns that she was also obsessed with writing that album and not just him. Ok, the line “there’s something I never knew I wanted and I want it” is far from perfect, but the new chorus now refers to Heroin, which I love. And anyways, my favorite parts of BAR always were the verses and the bridge, which she kept intact. I always thought the old chorus was a bit meh and a bit contradictory to the bridge.

Just a little caption would have gone a long way, that’s all I’m saying. Especially since she posts mostly about her friends and that picture could have been of one of her friends. Mental health is a concerning issue nowadays, and she is not insensitive on that matter, far from it.

The content she posted on her story is kinda random.

Yeah, super not cool... and yet, there's no caption whatsoever... People must think this is some random shit about her posse... Is the guy's sister one of her friends?

Ok what a mediocre Stan I am: I didn’t know BTD’s cover was shot on the first MV of Blue Jeans (didn’t even know there were two versions of that video- the homemade is better IMO). I now get why Paradise’s cover was a photo taken on the second Blue Jeans’ video.

I don’t think the shoot will be for the album cover. Music video or magazine cover. It’s not impossible it could be for the album cover, but it would have to be done very quickly, and physical copies would likely be delayed, like in Violet’s case.

The lyrics are corny AF. Dan Heath’s production saves it for me.

Any news on yesterday’s photoshoot?

They’re braver than me! Pretty much all year-rond, flannel keeps warm and all but in the summer, I sweat like a pig in it.

I can’t believe she wears flannel in the middle of summer.

Gorgeous

The only reason LA Who Am I To Love You is on both platforms is probably to advertise the book because she is a singer. But other than that, all the links her store provides are for audio platforms, not music / streaming ones.

She is in Tulsa again?!?

Love the woman with all of my heart, but she must stop the filming and driving. Even though what she did today is nowhere close to what she did with her Doin’ Time Insta post. God I was sure that day we were gonna witness her death live-streamed lol (I know it was filmed and not live-streamed). I get that being on the road with music is a big part of her «image », but she should just stop and so should you. Anything can happen on the road, accidents are matters of seconds of distractions. We’re all crazy fuckers here, but I want to see you all safe and sound, and argue with all of you in the future

Wow her voice sounds so different on that new song snippet

I love Violet but my only concern about it is the fact she claims a bit too much to be a poet, especially on Salamander ( I don't mind it on Sportcruiser though). Salamander is the one I don't like as much: her reading seems a bit too «forced», and the emotions don't feel as sincere as the other poems, even though it contains one of her most memorable quotes to date (My lovemaking is my legacy). I prefer the reading she did on her Insta this weekend to the one we got on Violet.

Quiet Waiter has always been my fave poem from her, and her voice is so soft on it. The music is beautiful and it flows majestically into bartender.

Hellraising Insta Baddie Selfie HAHAHAHAHA

It’s the city of dreams, where everything related to movies used to be (it stilL much is) and where so many mystical singers and bands came from. It’s not even beautiful, honestly: there is almost no préservation of architectural landmarks of any kind, and the traffic is horrendous ( Not owning a car is almost unthinkable). And yet, the vibe is very special and weird: it’s chill and hippie, and yet, people think they are the shit (selfcare, plastic surgery and vegan and also the stuff of big brands). It’s always sunny and yet, you know there is a chance this could all go away in an earthquake. There are so mystical places to be and see (Lana mentioned spring many of them in her songs: if you go visit, listen to her albums, it’s the perfect soundtrack). It’s worth seeing once in a lifetime.

God this is misogyny at its best, all those comments about her weight. This is such a shame: the girl is a legend, when it comes to her art, and to see that all people do is drag her about her looks And her weight, Jesus fucking Christ! The place of looks in our society is just crazy. I hope that the fuckers who dragged her down are always spot-on, to be so cruel about it.

If the video is a reharsh of the MAC and VB videos, which were already reharshes of the triple MV, I don’t want to see it.

Her mother being a teacher, it must have been challenging to say the least, to be her and live with a mother with « that kind of Personality » (often conservative, strict, perfectionists, with high expectations for their kids), based on the many teachers around me lol.As for the murders, it’s interesting that you relate the « murders » to her failed relationships, which I hadn’t thought of. Plus there are also rumours of at least one abortion she would have had in the past. But when I heard that line, I wondered if she had bought a house connected to the Manson murders. She did elude to that in Heroin, didn’t think it might be her house, maybe? Artists that are trailblazers take a lot of time to be recognized as such, most often than not.

Didn’t The Guardian love NFR?!? This new review of Violet, that I have not read by the way, is so frequent in the entrainment business: They love a project, then they give the next project by the same artist to the most critical reviewer, just to prove « they are always critical and not biased and still relevant to not always love what someone does. » Which is kinda bullshit.

The haïkus mentioned on Genius are the ones she posted on Insta throughout the years, after she teased Happy.

Quiet Waiter - Blue Forever is the « part 1 » and Bartender is « part 2 » to the story to me. Love your parallels! Never to Heaven and Cinnamon Girl could be linked indeed!
