Dark Angel

i think it could possibly be in my top 5, although it's hard to say, even albums which aren't in my top 5 are still albums i love, so even if it's like my 7th favorite, i could still really love it, i just have a select few i love & cherish a lot, i don't think it'll be top 3, though

terrence loves you vs. never let me go

i think the "aesthetic" aspect of her music is what makes it so intriguing & complex, yet, what is being depicted isn't neccessarily something which is desirable or glamorous, that's something i do really love about the born to die/paradise era is how complex the music itself, and it's themes/lyricism really are, at first, it's a gorgeous, perfect mix between luxury, opulence, romance, melancholy, somber, & despair, which is illustrated by the music itself, with luscious strings & fast-paced hip-hop beats, paired with dark guitars, & lana's smokey, summery voice, i can see why it would be easy to listen to her music and think of it as very glamorous & exciting, but if you really listen to the music, and the lyrics, you'll see that it's very gloomy, i think it's very subtle, in the lyricism itself, there's many examples of this subtle, yet strong presence of darkness & anguish, like off to the races, for example, is quite fast-paced and it talks a lot about glamour, materialism, luxury, troubled, yet exciting romance, yet there's still darkness & gloom within the lyrics "he knows me, every inch of my tar-black soul", "he doesn't mind i have a flat, broke-down life", "cause he knows i'm wasted, facing, time again at riker's island and i won't get out" i honestly think the complexitiy in her early work is genius, i think some people simply don't understand and they label it as toxic or romanticization, but i don't really think it is, i do think some people can find a sense of beauty in their own pain/troubles/sadness, and although i think this can be a harmful way of interpreting your own problems & emotions, i can personally relate to finding a strange sense of beauty in my sadness and i think it's wonderful that she was authentic and wrote about her own experiences & feelings, many people will be able to relate even if they can't personally relate to the experience of being with a partner who wasn't a good person for you, or living a troubled lifestyle

i wouldn't say it's bad, it's my least favorite, text book is definitely a better opening track, in my opinion, i don't understand why some people dislike it so much

i didn't know so many people felt so strongly about nfr i think it's a fitting opening track for the album and it's nice, but it's definitely not my favorite at all

"i know it's true love 'cause my heart goes yay" is seriously the cutest lyric ever

i talk to jesus vs. angels forever, forever angels

we lost...................................................... again unless... maybe @YourGirl666 is right about the possibility of it being a writer's demo by lana ghetto baby 2.0 is coming!

i don't think we've ever heard of this before, if this is real, it's a great find!

I LOVE THIS

ya'll need to leave nikki lane alone

nikki lane hour on t.v

just because she doesn't promote her work the way you think she should doesn't mean her upcoming releases should leak weeks before their intended release

at the end of the day, only lana herself knows what she meant in her lyrics, we just have to do our best to decipher them and come up with our own interpretations

HOT FIRE, HOT WEATHER, HOT COFFEE, I'M BETTER YOU'VE GOT A THUNDERBIRD, MY DADDY HAD ONE TOO, LET'S REWRITE HISTORY, I'LL DO THIS DANCE WITH YOU JENNY JUMPED INTO THE POOL, SHE WAS SWIMMING WITH NIKKI LANE MY CHEST, THE SIERRE MADRE

i'm pretty sure it is, the first line referencing blm was "there we were screaming black lives matter", so it would make sense that she's saying "i screamed for (black lives/black lives matter)" i think she was saying that despite what her partner at the time thought of her going to these protests, she's going to scream & protest anyways, and do what she thinks is right

we're going to nod & smile because it's the truth!

well, you don't like it, so maybe it really is that good!

running with the wolves, album title for ldr9 confirmed!

it would be fair if they'd just leak stuff every so often without teasing & we wouldn't have to beg for it

maybe cherry blossom? or sweet carolina?

if they really didn't want us to ask about it & beg for it, they wouldn't bring it up in the first place, but since they share song titles, share information, & post snippets...

release it
