but they're just simply lyrics, and so what it is? i understand country has garnered a bad rap because of how it presents itself in the mainstream, but old-school country is certainly a lot more quality, and this is literally just an acoustic guitar track, it isn't like she's putting on an exaggerated southern accent or anything like that

are we really at a point where we hear a guitar and think mainstream christian country? songs like money honey, for k, pt. 2, and fordham road are more country-esque lol, this literally sounds like a 2013 unreleased song more than anything else

listening to earthquakes, dragonslayer, and unidentified flying bill to celebrate!

imagine she decides to be random and re-uses earthquakes' bridge for the second time... henry, henry, cocoa-puff, henry, henry, ride

2013 unreleased vibes

where can i listen?

when lana del rey news becomes world news

my bloody valentine - loveless (album)

sempervirens' cameo

you already know!

the sky ferreira thread still active and hot in 2024... i have to respect the dedication

you've gotta hear humpback hop (it actually just recently leaked and was previously lost media) it's so reminiscent of AKA lizzy grant or her 2009 bops

my cat would make a more competent candidate

weren't daddy's girl, pussycat kittycat, and be my daddy all from the same session? we have a snippet of a rough demo of be my daddy that had to have come from the same session as daddy's girl and pussycat kittycat, but i would argue they could be different songs, at least pussycat kittycat could be neon palmmm is definitely an early demo of heavy hitter since it uses blockhead's instrumental concept and it shares a lot of lyrics roller derby is definitely also a demo for pin up galore, they're just too similar, and it isn't uncommon for demos to sometimes have different titles, especially with lana

knowing lana she probably meant that very literally lol

i don't know anything about breeding or hosting but i like holding footballs and hanging christmas lights around wooden poles! sure, i'll come!

i agree, and i feel like it doesn't really match up with some of her songs which mention alabama/bill that were likely recorded before february 2008, namely trash magic and pin up galore, i believe it's quite likely trash magic was recorded in 2007 since the demo was recorded/put together in november, 2007 and seemingly the final version appeared on her myspace in january, 2008, and i suppose i always assumed pin up galore was 2007 like all of the other steven mertens recordings, but i suppose that was just an assumption, we know she has a tendency to get dates wrong so i would take the 2008 theory with a grain of salt, and she was indeed dating reeve at the start of 2008, and they probably were still together for a few months, he appears in the trailer park tour video/gramma version 6 and it doesn't quite look like winter out to me, i wouldn't be surprised if it was filmed in the spring of 2008, we know from screencaps she was wearing a tank-top outside, even though reeve was wearing a coat lol

i like your theory about it all taking place before she started her music career, it would make sense with what she describes in i talk to jesus, but i also feel like it would be weird for her to claim it was 2008 when in reality it was 2005 (although we know she isn't really great with dates, even now since she recently described her relationship with artie levine (arthur lynn) taking place when she was 20, but they were together when she was 22) also, i saw a post theorizing that get drunk is about mikey martin and rob since those two were friends, and i feel like that's more likely

i think your theory here makes sense because how would lana be talking about bill in trash magic when it was recorded before her time in alabama, i believe the final version is from 2007, and even if it's from 2008 (i now know she and steven mertens still worked with each other to some extent all the way until the end of 2009 because he played guitar during the canal room performance) it appeared on her myspace in january of 2008 which was before february 2008 - april 2008, could pin up galore possible be from 2008? dance at night back in alabama, christmas lights on my teal-green trailer although roller derby is clearly from 2007, so maybe she was still just taking inspiration from her new jersey trailer park, and perhaps she did visit alabama at some point in 2007 and perhaps visited a trailer park in mobile, we really just don't know, but, yeah, like i said yesterday in my sleuthing post i'm honestly proud of, the more we know, the less we know! honestly the thought of her actually re-locating to alabama on her own with a boyfriend to live in a trailer park just makes her whole trailer park darling image even more authentic to me, like, yeah, her family may have been more well-off by that point because of rob's success in the internet domain world, but she was still living all on her own out-of-state, i get what she means when she talks about trailer parks, fireworks, ice cream trucks, christmas lights, the sea... it just connects with me like nothing else... today's a good day to listen to trash magic, pin up galore, and i talk to jesus

i think we should advocate for people to take more time to decide who to submit nominations for in each categories so it's more diverse, it doesn't help that there's not really a list with the most active/frequently online users, something i face when submitting nominations is that i forget certain people and later on i'll come across somebody's post and realized i could've submitted them, it can be easy to just submit the most well-known users and whoever comes to mind in the moment, we do get a few weeks to submit nominations but i'm sure a lot of us do it right away, but perhaps it would be a better idea to take our time and to refresh our memories on a larger number of users so it leads to more diverse nominations, it makes sense as to why popular and well-known members end up being nominated, but there's many users here who are very much deserving of some recognition, but in my personal opinion, i don't really think there should be any restrictions, i feel like that'll take some of the fun and lightheartedness out of it, however, we really should encourage users to take their time to decide who they'll nominate, and to not just submit their friends (i'm guilty of doing that, but i wouldn't nominate them for things such as best username or hottest member if i didn't believe they were worthy of the category) or just submit the most popular/well-known users because it's easier to do so at the end of the day, it's just an online awards show for a niche internet community that doesn't actually hold any weight in real life, and i'd argue the most exciting and fulfilling aspect is just simply coming together, celebrating our community as a whole, and roleplaying as some sort of character, that's honestly my favorite part, i always look forward to roleplaying as lizzy lol

i don't think there should be any rules on how many nominations/awards somebody gets, let the people themselves vote and decide, if somebody sweeps, they sweep it would be more of a genuine reflection on how lanaboards feels about the userbase

not entirely lana-related or anything too significant or crazy, but interesting nonetheless... so, yesterday, i found myself curious about steven mertens' music, so i decided to search him on youtube, not much came up, one song called on ice which i didn't find too interesting honestly, and a music video for a song called no roof, now, if you watch the music video and listen to the lyrics (they're kind of hard to understand honestly ) it may seem familiar to you... it features a girl wearing a wig walking around new york, the beach, and coney island, and not only that, but steven mertens sings the line lookin' like a calendar kitten which obviously she mentions in boarding school, now, you may look at the upload date (march 2nd, 2013) and assume it's a song he wrote about her, but if you look at the youtube channel which uploaded it, you'll see they also previously uploaded it on january 26, 2007, and i'm going to assume they didn't know each other yet, and even if they did, it was before she took on the coney island/new york/kitschy americana aesthetic around late 2007/early 2008, perhaps she took some inspiration from steven mertens' song and video because it's very lizzy-esque and this wasn't even her aesthetic at the time you can also see the original 2007 upload on a screenshot of his old myspace what led me to finding this in the first place was finding out (and realizing i was correct about) steven mertens was the guitarist at her october 22, 2009 show at canal room, by reading the information section on the thread about it in the early shows section i'm actually really surprised to find out he still worked with lana past 2007, i suppose i always assumed they only really worked together in 2007 and never really did past that, but i suppose i was wrong and he played at her shows at the least... it really seems like the more i know, the less i know! steven mertens performing a song mentioning calendar kitten while an old song of his featuring a girl in a wig frolicking around coney island and the beach also mentions it... it's literally all connected...
