Slumdog

Are you guys sure she's got something done besides lip injections? To me it has always seemed that her face looks like that because of the weight gain, I don't know about fillers (I'm no expert). Anyway, she looks good, especially considering she is not wearing makeup, or is wearing very light makeup?

I don't know if this has already been posted but Wait For Life is (in my opinion) one of "her" best songs.

I really enjoy Honeymoon now. I didn't like it at first but I've come to appreciate it's overall solemn mood. It's nice that it's not so in-your-face, as many of us would have expected, but more subtle and relaxed. That is what Lana seems like, too.

That's what I'm saying. "I will never understand how she manages to always APPEAR with a smile". "She SEEMS happy". "She SEEMS very kind". It's something that I haven't seen in other public figures. It was an implicit compliment for her professionalism. Whether Lana really is happy or not, only she and her loved ones know. You guys should improve your reading comprehension skills

That was in an interview. I'm talking about public appearances. She seems very kind and warm.

Yorkshire Terrier? I don't know much about dogs, but that's the first thing that came to mind with "little brown dogs."

I will never understand how she manages to always appear with a smile. That's something I admire about her. It's as if she never has a bad day or at least doesn't show it. She always seems happy and relaxed.

The song is slowly growing on me, but I mainly like the instrumental only. I found this and it's beautiful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oR9flmjewlE

Are you talking about West Coast?

She looks like a president or someone very important.

Does anyone remember the name of the songs that Lana made a fan listen to before UV was released? I think she met him in Brazil or something like that, I can't remember the story correctly, sorry. I just want to know if the names match with the ones on the album.

Interesting. How is one supposed to talk if not from one's throat?

Afraid.

Doesn't it remind you of the intro used for the Blue Jeans video?

1- Why do you seem so nice and kind but insist on wearing fur? 2- What is your opinion on illuminati conspiracy theories? 3- What is your idea of God (a creator that watches his creation from the sky, ancient aliens or are you more a deist or a pantheist, etc.)?

Would you please post a link or mention some examples? Thanks in advance.

You said exactly what I was thinking. Running out of ideas is no excuse for this. Yoann Lemoine had the ability to turn a cliche idea into a masterpiece with Blue Jeans. He has such an eye for detail. Summertime Sadness, the song, for example, wasn't that great to me, but the video made it more powerful. To mention other artists, look at what Romain Gavras did with just "human beings in a mob" (please watch No Church In The Wild). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJt7gNi3Nr4 You don't need an outlandish concept, just someone who can execute it properly.

I've always wondered... do you guys think that people who work with Lana or even she herself browse this forum? And if they did, do you think they would consider anything we say? These are dumb questions, but I'm curious.

Why?

New age philosophy is for people who want to feel spiritual through changing superficial aspects of their lives or acquiring "hidden" knowledge, while losing contact with reality. I'm not a skeptic of the supernatural, just a person who is very aware of how damaging these cults can be. Reading esoteric books and such on your own is good but being surrounded with like-minded people is dangerous.

I don't know if it's the production, the instrumentation, Lana's singing style or whatever but Paradise is not good to me. I'm not sure what kind of sound they were trying to achieve but, in my opinion, it wouldn't have changed anything if she didn't release it. The only songs I genuinely enjoy are Cola and Bel Air (Body Electric, too, but only the live version). And I hate the cover, her face is overly photoshopped and looks deformed.

No one is going to agree with me but I think Kanye West and Lana are similar in many ways, it's not easy to explain. All I can say is they are the only mainstream artists I find interesting.

The ending of West Coast. It's the most beautiful thing I've ever heard, I'm obsessed with this song.

Two questions: I don't know where else to post this, but has anyone else tried the "invisible counselors technique"? Lana said Tropico was partly inspired by Charles Haanel's experimentations with imagination but I was confused since Napoleon Hill (whose work she has read) also talks about using your imagination to receive guidance from historical figures. So, was it a mistake on her part or did they both talk about this technique? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8umqLDWEv8

I really like the album but I'm very disappointed that the rest of the songs aren't like West Coast (on a "technical" level).
