i can only imagine that the lotions/creams/perfumes/whatever else it was would be very sticky, like if you put frosting or caramel on your skin

i doubt it, it seems like they were close even before lana was famous, she often attended the T.R.A.F.F.I.C meetings that he attended

honestly... not sure... when was the last time you listened to candy necklace by lana del rey?

i find it interestingly ironic how a lot of the things that people get mad about nowadays regarding lana are things she's done in the past or throughout her career and nobody had any issue with previously people are already getting upset at her for referencing black dahlia in the upcoming candy necklace music video... but nobody has anything to say about her recreating JFK's murder in the national anthem music video, i can see how referencing such events can be a tricky, and if they referenced, it should be done in a tasteful, respectful way that makes sense for the purpose of art, the music video isn't even completely out yet, it might make more sense once the complete video is released, regardless, i would like to think that lana is referencing her for a reason, i do think it would be distasteful to dress/imitate her just for the aesthetic or for no reason at all

here's mine!

i can understand and sympathize with the fact that some people aren't comfortable with religion, and for very valid reasons, but it does not mean that it still isn't something important for many people, lana has the right to believe in whatever it is she wants to believe and to express her beliefs however she wants, if people are so bothered by it, they should just not listen to it and move on, i don't really get how some fans are acting so disappointed and shocked, she's always expressed her beliefs through her music? have they ever listened to paradise? watched tropico? mariner's apartment complex?

the first one is michael jackson the second one is @Jack -
that could be the case, but i honestly feel like her relationship with jack was probably just a fling/nothing to serious? i guess we can't know for sure how she feels or how certain relationships impact her, but i don't believe this song is about jack, especially since it seems like she's still friends with him at least, she filmed that instagram story a couple months back of him jumping into a lake, and i believe there's a photo of him for some of the vinyl visuals however, just because it isn't about jack donoghue, doesn't mean it isn't about drugs, it definitely seems like the topics of drugs or men who are involved with drugs go back quite far for her

MY THOUGHTS ON CANDY NECKLACE candy necklace is amazing... i didn't expect for it to be my favorite off of the album, but i can already tell that it is going to mean a lot to me for years to come... candy necklace is a hard song to describe emotionally, it is rich, instrumentally, and at times, it sounds peaceful and contemplative, which makes the song feel hopeful, but it is obvious that it is a lot more dark and solemn, with mentions of suicidal ideation and being brought down by somebody or something, i feel like there's a lot of different words that could be used to describe the mood of this song... haunting, meandering, sardonic, reflective, introspective, confessional, relaxing... strangely blissful? something which i actually quite enjoy about this track is how abstract the song is, lyrically, i really can't seem to know for sure what exactly she's talking about or what the situation is at hand, but i do interpret it as being about a romantic connection with someone, as well as her emotions and struggles candy necklace shares the same sardonic, meditative sound and mood that bartender has, although candy necklace is way more outwardly emotive, while bartender keeps it detached, whimsical, yet monotone, candy necklace isn't quite depressing or just simply sad, but it definitely isn't joyful either, or speaks about a connection with somebody that is normal, void of complicated emotions, or flaws, the chorus is probably my favorite part of the song, lana describes how the person she's singing about is restless/reckless, dances around like the ones who are young, restless/reckless, she feels obsessed with this person's attitude or way of life, or perhaps even their demeanor, she also mentions the "candy necklaces" which i'm not quite sure what the candy necklaces are supposed to represent, it could be a reference to something that only lana herself would get, it could be a metaphor for drugs (i personally don't think so) or it could be a metaphor for something more deep that, again, only lana herself would know, or we just have to interpret it for ourselves, it adds a subtle, yet effective element of devilish sweetness in a track which is pretty grounded on earth imagery-wise, candy necklace's chorus reminds me of lana's many past songs from earlier albums where it seems as though she embraces the darker, more honest side of her connections and the relationship she has with the one she loves, she's not afraid to face and to embrace the sides of her soul which are more dark, honest, and reflects the essences of the complicated, complexity of being somebody who has struggled or has had a complicated life, or is just a complicated person once jon batiste starts singing/repeating "candy necklaces" alongside lana, a lot of the sad, dark emotion is stripped away from the track, and it feels more like meditative peace and a union between two who love each other, it is still emotive and rich, it certainly doesn't abruptly transform into a vapid, happy song, it still carries a sense of heaviness and melancholy, but it feels a lot more relaxed, i love this section of this song, it really does feel like a peaceful resolution of all of the emotion that was conveyed throughout the song, jon batiste has such a gorgeous, soothing voice, jon batiste and lana harmonize beautifully together, this section at the end of the song where they just simply repeat "candy necklaces" together highlight the sense of "obsession" that lana and/or the other person feels about the relationship, but it feels like they have been able to stay strong together and to let themselves relax and be free of pain, confusion, and struggle, because they have one another, and they aren't entirely afraid of being flawed, or being emotional, or not being perfect, because it actually makes them, and their bond, all the more stronger
