Exclusive "Falling Apart" lyrics:
 

 
I'm falling apart
 

 
I'm falling apart

I'm so disappointed with most of these songs..
 
I just don't get it. Charli says she tried too hard to be cool with True Romance, but when I listen to some of these Sucker songs it sounds like she's not trying at all. Some of the songs I like, but overall they're just boring and uninspired/cheesy to me.

Hello angry & opinionated human beings.
 
I can only speak for myself, so I will. Being raped is no fun. I've had experience with that. I always have hated when people want to mask the problem of rape & sexual abuse. For a long time I felt like "I was the only one who knew how it felt". That whole "you were asking for it" argument..  As I got older and submersed myself into darker art forms that showcase all sides of the human psyche & human behaviors, I came to an understanding. It's a very real, human experience not to be portrayed like a "Lifetime special". There has been some comfort in seeing rape portrayed as real as possible, because it allows people who have never been through that situation to gain some understanding and compassion towards people who have gone through it. I've read autobiographies of people describing how they were raped or abused, I've spoken to people who went through it. Bonding with others helped heal my pain. I became unashamed. I wasn't at fault. By being ashamed about sharing my past, I felt that put me at fault. I wasn't making myself available to other people who need to know they are not alone/at fault. Sharing an experience doesn't glorify that experience, it humanizes it for others to relate to it. Relating to a rape scene shouldn't be a shameful thing. It's staring a problem in the face and saying something about it. I commend actors who want to portray rape scenes properly. Any artist who makes something ugly instead of making something perfect & beautiful. The ones who tell the scary stories w/o endings. It should make you feel something. Pain, confusion, anger, fear, etc. but not towards the actors & people involved in creating the art. Just towards the action itself. I once had a teacher in cultural anthropology who refused to believe that our predecessors could have also been rapists. She claimed that rape was a new fangled action, that came along more recently in the history of humans. That kind of thinking insulted me a bit, because I feel like rape is very common, but also so frowned upon, it is silenced throughout history. If you silence an artist from conveying something that has influenced them, you are diluting the truth. Rape is real, and it shouldn't be something we want to close our eyes, ears, and hearts from because it is wrong. That is the wrong attitude to have. We should be discussing it. We should be able to look at a video like this one and be able to learn from it. Realize that someone needs to talk about it, or at least have an outlet to express their thoughts on it. 

Calm the fuck down.
In this case, art doesn't have the right to depict, war, murders, death, basically life. Where do you see the glamorization of rape? Is there some guy saying "look, this is how you treat a woman right"? No, it depicts horror and different kinds of violence. The shot of the insect is still enigmatic to me. Does it show some revenge is preparing? Is it here to add to the link between sex and violence?
Before you get psychotic again, I have been sexually assaulted and this doesn't make my opinion any less or any more valid. It's a collab between Marilyn Manson, Lana del Rey and Eli Roth. What did you fucking expect? A Katy Perry music video with rainbows and shit? Nobody forced you to click and watch, if you don't wanna see it then activate a parental control or even better : you can click on the white cross on a red background that is at the top-right corner of your window.
Lana doesn't have to make you happy, she experimented something and she has the right to do that. Her life doesn't have to be judged and scrutinized by all of you. She owes you nothing.
 
You're all sitting here judging her when I bet you're all hypocrites liking the art of men who are known sexual criminals or men who are violent towards women : Tupac, Eminem, Polanski, Woody Allen, and so on. (because sadly, the list is way too long)

Can you even come for Lana's material with the most recent piece of garbage your fave put out?

Frankly, I find Tim Burton to be really overrated. The only movie of his that I've seen and would consider classic is Edward Scissorhands.
He's okay, but not that great. I hope that this movie is gonna be more like ES quality, than Dark Shadows.
I'm excited for Big Eyes, but not because of it's director, if it makes sense.
I'm happy that we're gonna get another Lana song <3

not necessarily, but people who have a history of domestic violence COULD potentially be triggered.
but i now understand how it can be seen as a harmful song. however, i still think those assuming it's going to influence EVERYONE to physically assault others is wrong.

i can already hear shadowshow playing as the islands dissolves

Sensible people often look the other way. This is part of the problem.
 
I think both Eminem and Lana Del Rey's subject matter warrants scrutiny, but both deserve fair consideration of what they are trying to say before dismissing them as "glorifying violence." But it is possible for one to handle their subject matter well while the other doesn't.
 
The more I think about "Shady Cxvpher," the more I get the vibe that Eminem uses sexist/homophobic slurs that are motivated by class struggle, not gender/orientation issues. (For example, it's not so much that Eminem is pissed at any woman who won't sleep with him, as much as he's pissed at any woman who thinks she's too good to sleep with him.) That doesn't make it okay, of course. But it does explain why some fans see him as "not misogynistic." Of course, deliberate use of such slurs makes it more serious than a matter of simple "insensitivity."

But it's okay for lana to sing about violence, right? Won't 'he hit me and it fell like a kiss' 'hit me and tell me you're mine' validate the actions of the potential abuser? you are so hypocritical.

The thirst for relevance  

young children (people in general) are already exposed to culture, media, video games, and etc that can be seen as potentially detrimental to their growth, but at the end of the day, those individuals are the ones who ultimately decide whether or not the aforementioned factors will impact them. for example, if a young person were to hear this verse or anything similar, i sincerely doubt it would influence, implying they even have the capacity to understand him, them at all because it's just common sense, implying they're of age to have one, that hitting people is bad.
i didn't think of how this could be a encouraging trigger to those already prone of domestic violence, so thank you for that.
and you're right, this shitty song is impacting culture. i mean, look at us right now. people here are discussing it's possible effects, or just completely shutting out and ending all discussion because they're so fixed on their position that they aren't even open to listening and having a progressive conversation.

i honestly don't understand how this promotes domestic violence against women.
it's not like someone's going to hear this shitty rap verse and be like, "OH. HE RAPPED ABOUT HITTING WOMEN, THEREFORE I MUST TOO."
 
edit: eminem WAS a good rapper. his last 2 albums were disappointments, tbh.

honestly, i really hate jessica lange's voice when she sings. i cannot take her seriously at all.
and i'm so over her singing. ryan murphy has to stop mixing glee and AHS together. (i understand that singing is part of elsa's story, but still)
this season seems really.. boring and reductive to me.. the only thing that got me excited (not like ) and kept interested was the clown.
(although more half naked scenes of dandy would help)
i'm going to continue watching and hope that this mess gets better, though. (i've invested too much time on this show to give up now )

I find this topic incredibly frustrating, partly because I feel like I can't argue my full beliefs because they're too complicated. I spent a decade obsessed with the power electronics group Whitehouse, whose lyrics and themes make Eminem look like Idina Menzel (and whose main member, William Bennett, wrote an interesting review of Ultraviolence), but after a long time I felt alienated by the cheap thrills that referencing sex crimes and serial killers can bring about. I've followed Eminem for a long time from afar, and have always felt that he had the right to say what he wants to say, and be vile when he wants to. But if you're coming after Lana, I'm going to be on your ass (and I've got Azealia backing me up). I'm not trying to take anyone's music away, or make them feel bad for thinking something's cool. I know what it's like to feel the need to protect something that you care about, and that the general public thinks is 'filth'. So ... sorry for adding to the essays, @@ilovetati and everyone else can carry on with talking across each other.

I can admit that he's a good rapper but he lacks lyrical quality, doesn't rap about real issues and he's the 90's male equivalent to Iggy Azalea. Just a white guy deemed the "best in his genre" because he's an anomoly and that was capitalized upon early in his career.

When Lana was performing live and there was a live stream, I took more screenshots of Blake than Lana
He's got such a beautiful jaw line ugh 
I could've got a selfie with him when I went to see Lana but I didn't want to be seen as being too stalkery

He looks so good in that omg
