American Whore

i posted in the candy necklace lyrics thread bc it's been bothering me that she says that she's obsessed with his candy necklaces but the idea of a candy necklace is that it's full of sugar and eventually, the charms are all gone. also, think of jewelry. people buy promise rings to prove themselves being devoted to a person without getting engaged. that's essentially the idea of an engagement ring, too. i 1000% believe the original title was empty promises and i can't get this idea out of my fucking HEAD SOMEONE HELP and i think it ties to sean for which reasons are posted in that thread but i need people to think about it a little more with the context of blue banisters title track and what she said on a&w

My headcannon for this is that there's an original version called Empty Promises (it would fit, okay? that's the only reason why i think it, it makes sense in my brain lol) and she's saying "I'm obsessed with all of his empty promises" but she changed it to candy necklaces to make it less obvious. This would also make sense in the context of it being about Sean, since she didn't know he was engaged, he probably sweet talked her and made her promises. I don't know if Blue Banisters was about Sean, but it also could make sense in the context of that song too. "Said he'd come back every May, just to help me if i paint my banisters blue, said he'd fix my weatherpane, give me children take away my pain and paint my banisters blue" can't wait for the demos the leak

candy necklace has been stuck in my head ALL FUCKING DAY

the cd is kind of disappointing. on the image for the target version, they edited out the nipple from the cd art. and the "booklet" is a fold out poster

your lack of taste is showing again

Honestly tho? That's ok, i'll buy a nintendo card and add it to my nintendo funds

not you trying it for the rest of us they let you keep the first one tho?

wait wait wait, i feel like i missed something

I'm gonna check another Target tomorrow just for funsies (might get a cd if I can find one... or two)

i went looking for the vinyl at the target by my house just for funsies to see if their app was lying (when I looked on the target app, one that was further away said they had 3 copies but when i got there, they had like 7-8) but they didn't even have the cd if yall find the target edition, grab it up before its gone. it could be like a BB situation where it only gets distributed once or twice and thats that. I still see copies of cocc at target but never have seen BB restocked since i got my copies

i just saw taylor swift last night giving lana promo and whatnot at her show. i love that she loves lana. the way she spoke about lana was so adorable

Do yall remember that Jessica Simpson line of makeup that was supposed to be edible?

Same here! I'd been BEGGING for a collab between the two of them since like... 2014 or around the time ILYH came out and then he popped up in the Freak video and then we got Coachella which was about being at a show of his with his wife in the crowd and then all interaction seemed to stop.... until LAST YEAR AND THEN WE TRULY ATE THIS YEAR

Her wearing a mask might be just to keep public eye off of her when she's out doing mundane things. It might make it easier for her to go out and not get bombarded with paparazzi.

Let the light in seems like such a classic Lana track. It's cinematic, the melody is very beatles-y, very 60s/70s. It's just so fucking good. If she did more songs like it on the next album i'd be absolutely happy. It seems like what LFL should've been, Tomorrow Never Came. I like that song just fine, but this seems like a more perfected sound like that.

It could be her choice, too. She's gotten older and maybe she realizes keeping family around is more important, even if that doesn't include her mother. Her sister has been more included as time goes on and even her brother. But Rob always has seemed to be supportive of her from the beginning. I remember the UV shows, fans would show up to a sold out show and as far as I remember, he'd bought some tickets to hand out. It's also interesting that she refers to him as Rob sometimes, then sometimes dad. I don't think it'd be his choice if he wasn't present in her life, successful as Lana has become or not. I think that'd be a choice Lana would make. If Patty had the choice, I'm sure Lana would be more present in her life but I don't think Lana wants to be, so Patty isn't in hers. The same would go for Rob too. Also, sometimes one parent makes decisions for their kids without consideration of the other parent. It's clear Lana doesn't like talking about Patty around Rob so his relationship with Patty might not be very good, if they have any relationship these days at all. Maybe he's sided with Lana over things that her mom did and they were out of his control. "My father never stepped in when his wife would rage at me."

SECURED MY GREEN VINYL he only had one left and he also had a copy of Honeymoon, it must've finally gotten another run. he saved me the green vinyl tho so i had nothing to worry about

How does one become a supporter?

NOT ME MAKING A CAMEO APPEARANCE IN THE FIRST SCREENSHOT SHADING LUST FOR LIFE iconique

yeah, the part about making a pop album was recent, i can't remember right off hand which interview it was. we've had a lot lately the interview she gave to the two girls at the billboard women in music awards is where she said she was "done writing about my family, who knows what i'll write about next!"

i think so too, especially after she said she wouldn't mind making another pop album and she's done writing about her family so

wasn't there someone who said there was a story behind it? i don't remember what it was tho and i thought they said they'd tell us once it was out was it kintsugi? eclipse? boz? fuck if i know

okay but i've been asking this for the longest time. honestly, we know jack can do some weird things with instrumentals. imagine jack and kevin working together on one album with lana, like weird tracks back to back to back

just a lil teaser, not a real video, but it's cute and you definitely don't wanna miss it lol

the ending is so funny, "in case they say i never did anything, i did, i stood up here and i sang" hahaha i love her
