Hillsong must be a cult lol http://hitsdailydouble.com/news&id=316246 Their album is expected to go to #1 this week with about 115k sales. No way are that many people buying such an album unless they are brainwashed maybe Lana's buying a few thousand

I think it would probably have still turned out the same way, at first she maybe wanted to become famous for "fun" and the recognition as it would mean she was successful and had managed to get noticed but she also has never seemed the type of person who really wanted to be famous. I think most of the people who enjoy fame just like attention in general and always like to be in the spotlight and if they are not they probably hate it and just want to be noticed again without really caring why they are being talked about where as Lana i'd say more wants to be seen as good at what she does. I'd probably bet she would rather have been an average bar singer who made enough money just to have a house and normal life than to have been a famous pop star who had other people writing her songs and had to perform music she didnt like.

I only like leaks when its old songs that never came out or are never going to come out, new material being leaked that was probably going to use I find sad and a waste. Im a Lil Wayne fan and he has a lot of really good leaked songs which were going to be on his albums but were stolen and the songs are wasted and its a shame they'll never be available to stream etc

I just finished listening to it, I don't know her old music so I have nothing to compare it with but it sounds nice to me. Very relaxing, I feel like it had a lot of summer holiday, beach/pool vibes to some of the songs. I liked Handmade Heaven, Baby, Orange Trees and To Be Human but I already heard them before listening to it so maybe im just familiar with them. The other songs I liked were Believe In Love, Too Afriad and You.

Did she say something?

I hope it will be announced at short notice randomly some day but I do now feel like it could be dragged out for months with her continuing to post baddie selfies, snippets and poems without saying anything. Imagine we get to August or September without any real news

Sometimes its good to come out of the black into the blue for a little while though

She brought colour into her life with the baddie squad

Baby, I'm a sociopath Sweet serial killer

So people know what it looks like

Venice Bitch is so good, just listening to it now for the first time in 3 months or more and :legend:

We been chilling, we're near frozen

Could have conspiracy theores based on anything though. I read on here the other day someone saying she's lazy and doesnt want to learn the new songs to perform at these summer festivals and shows she is doing and it also makes sense to me, especially as she mentioned how she was going to be cancelling some shows but then never did - she cancelled the album instead

She gives away too much stuff, I want to read the book with fresh poems not 10 I already read before Same with the album too many songs released, performed or snippets.

Just seen this recommended to me on Youtube, was only uploaded yesterday so people might not have seen it.

I think theres a good chance thats true, also this part from HTD Jim met me down at the training yard Got cuts on his face 'cause he fought too hard I know he's in over his head But I love that man like nobody can He moves mountains and turns them to ground again And I watched the guys getting high as they fight For the things that they hold dear To forget the things they fear That is probably about Joe and she changed the name to Jim "Moves mountains and" MMA, Joe Schilling is also known as a big stoner as are the guys he trains with so the getting high as they fight has a double meaning like they enjoy fighting but they also get high before fighting. People also said at the time how his friends all followed her on Instagram also so they probably were dating for a small time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7z9tgcuvWdA

I think her managers may see the poetry as good marketing for the album, they know only her fans will probably be interested in the poetry but more people are open to her music. If she releases the poetry soon before the album, her name will be spoken about in general on the internet all the music sites etc will be tweeting about how Lana Del Rey has released a poetry book. People will see it and wonder why she is writing poetry even if they don't check it or bother about it any further but then when they see a week or 2 later that she has released an album because her name was recently mentioned and noticed a lot by people and fresh in their memory and they will be more likely to check out songs from the album. Thats what I would guess anyway.

Yeah I remember that, I think she said she had Mexican friends in Florida (Miami?) who she spoke spanish with. It's weird how much stuff she has lied about, maybe she is a crazy fantasist and almost nothing shes said is true. I don't believe she was an alcoholic either - it would make sense she just made that up as the reason she went to boarding school - it doesn't sound cool to have went to boarding school because you were rich and your parents sent you compared to you being wild and an alcoholic and having to be sent to be kept off the streets lol Probably a same thing with the Spanish, she probably had a Spanish tutor or something to learn it but she just says she learned it by speaking to her Mexican friends in Florida.
