Not in terms of sound, but the 1-2-3 punches at the end of both albums!

Just now, Mer said:sorry i just saw this quote explaining to me about the covid/cancer line, and didn't mean to ignore you (or @MJx) or brush you off (I didn't see it before making my follow up post). Like I said, no one can speak about how another person experiences something, and just because one person doesn't have an issue with it, doesn't mean someone else won't have the same experience. Nothing is universal, and of course so sorry about both your losses. I hope you can listen to and enjoy the rest of the album!!
All is well, I apologize for being overly sensitive <3 I was in my feelings earlier and felt defensive.

SpoilerLana's the most versatile artist out there; most other artists couldn't dream of including songs like Paris Texas/Fingertips on the same album as songs like Peppers and Taco Truck, but Lana wraps it all up and makes it WORK
I love the bops and I love the beautiful balladry!

SpoilerPeppers and Fishtail being sister songs, Kintsugi and Let the Light In sharing similar lines, oh the connection and cohesion

Nobody's offended, @MJx and I merely critiqued a lyric due to our own personal experiences during the pandemic and you all chose to get defensive instead; here's your medal of honour for fighting Elizabeth Grant's battles

If you find something insensitive because of your own personal experiences, then don't listen. It really is as simple as that. You can obviously express it, but don't expect us to just dismiss Lana's songs and intentions because of that
Hit a nerve?

1 minute ago, MJx said:it honestly is so interesting how some of you are so defensive of anything she says/does, when she wasn't even attacked/judged - i just stated that i, PERSONALLY, feel uneasy because of the line and i have a good reason for that . it's so weird being quoted on that with responses telling me that im wrong for it, like..? i am sure that many people would feel weird in such a situation, rightfully so. is it the worst thing to say in a song? no. is it insensitive in a way? i sure do think so.
Right.
"iF yOu dOn'T liKe iT, DoN'T liSten," acting like they're in the military fighting for Lana's honor

I personally don't care if "you don't think it's that deep." People here on this forum have different experiences with the pandemic, and we're allowed to express our critiques over a lyric. No one here said she's a MAGA superspreader, so no need to go to war over her, but we're allowed to find the lyric flippant and obnoxious.

Just now, ivory almond said:I think I'm confused on what you mean by "doesn't care because she's with that guy." Do you mean that she doesn't care because she's going to keep kissing him and spending time with him, so getting it is inevitable? Because if so, I think that too, and I don't think that is something she should be critiqued for. She would just be saying "oh well, I'm gonna get it." Not "oh well, I'll get it and be careless."
SpoilerSomeone who isn't at least somewhat flippant about the Covid-19 pandemic wouldn't want to get Covid or put themselves in a situation where they can get Covid in general because they wouldn't want to spread it to other people. So yes, she doesn't care that she gets it, and by extension, other people.

1 minute ago, DCooper said:Agreed in theory but I don't consider the lyric to be her not caring about exposing others, it sounds more like if my boyfriend gets it then I'm getting it too cus I won't stop kissing him, not we're going go around town and being irresponsible to others. I do think it's a bit of a dumb lyric though, hopefully it lands better in context of the whole song
Not sure how anyone could twist the masks line though, that was clearly just about the relief of things opening once again.
SpoilerI'm not saying that the lyric is her "I'm spreading covid and I don't care," but there's an implication in that lyric that she doesn't care if she gets covid because she's with that guy instead of not wanting covid in general in order that she doesn't spread it to other people. It's a stupid lyric and she lowkey deserves to be critiqued for it.
-
SpoilerPretty sure that the lyric of her not caring that she exposes herself and others by extent to Covid is way worse than being happy and relieved that people could see each other's faces again and that the pandemic restrictions were being lifted. Some of you are just...

I just don't understand what's so difficult to wrap one's head around the concept that Lana releases music for herself and for music, not to release the biggest "chart smash" or to appease others and that's okay. The fact that she continues to go the less obvious route by releasing The Grants instead of something like Taco Truck should be the most glaring example of that
