new cover that I made
 

All I took from that is 'fuck his voice is sexy'

florida kilos duh. lana as the mafiosi queen

if you look under shades of cool comments in a couple of the negative yt responses she gives them a link to pre order Ultraviolence on Itunes I can't find it now but I saw it and I cracked the fuck up this queen of ours.

"I wanna die, I wanna die" don't let The Guardian hear about this.

Sky cashing in on this...
 
Cringing so hard rn.

I see "to glamorise" is the new "it" word nowadays. Yeah she sings about death a lot, yeah she may have liked the idea of dying young and free, at the top of your powers and fame in some songs. Y&B is filled with her fear of getting old and becoming unrecognized, aching and not beautiful anymore.  But fuck it, she is artist, she has her own artistic persona. She isnt politician to make some official statement for the country. Im sick of the fact how art is now supposed to be morally perfect, "healthy" and politically correct. 

High up in the Hollywood hills (or Hills?)
 
It's like they're high cause they're on top of a hill but they're also high on pills in the Hollywood Hills. How clever? lol

I just think that the journalist wrote something that wasn't untrue *out of context*. 

Don't worry, Barrie. Taylor Swift will be calling you asking you to star in a knock-off of a Lana video before you know it. And of course Lana will ask you to open for her while she's dating Jimmy Gnecco.

Has anyone covered a song from the new album yet or nah? Share, share, share!
 
So far I've only TRIED covering Brooklyn Baby. I plan to cover more.

Also, can we comment on "To Dan Auerbach - thank you for bringing the fire back into my life."

i'm kind of sad because barrie's hot BUT MARK MAHONEY IS HOTTER~ GET IT LANA GET IT!

Wait is that a possibility?

Onto the ship(wreck)!

Cruel World
What a Monster of an opener. The girl in her red dress is back from the races. She’s drunken too much and danced the night away in the pale moonlight.  But instead of going to bed she decides to continue partying into the early hours of the morning. Lana sings with an intensity never heard before as she laments over a lover long gone. She feels used, abused and hung over whilst stuck in a suburban nightmare. It’s perfectly packaged in a classic country rock styled arrangement thanks to Mr. Auerbach; complete with distortions and reverb.
Best Part: It’s all about the chorus but really the whole six and a half minutes are grand.
10/10
 
Ultraviolence
The sweet way Lana sings this song captures the sentiment of someone who’s become submissive to their abusive partner. She knows better but is compelled by him; almost brainwashed by his ‘love’ for her. A passive aggression is building up inside her; a poisonous rage ready to erupt at any moment. Watch out things may become ultraviolent.
Best Part: Cause I'm your jazz singer, And you're my cult leader, I love you forever...
9 /10
 
Shades of Cool
Lana goes full Bond girl in this jazz number. Her vocals soar and dazzle in the chorus. She loves her man but he’s a player and she is just one of his many conquests. She’s vying for his undivided attention but he‘s just having fun.
Best part: The chorus -Cause you are invincible, I can't break through your world
10/10
 
Brooklyn Baby
Written with Barrie this is a sweet ode to the Brooklyn lifestyle. It’s one of the few lighter moments on the album (and is a standout track) with a great guitar arrangement thanks again to Mr Auerbach.
Best Part: When Barrie joins in on the final chorus. It’s slightly eerie but very cool.
10/10
 
West Coast
This song oozes cool. Lana is on fire as she sings about her love down on the west coast. It’s not so much about what she’s saying but more about the sweltering hypnotic mood she creates as she sings.
Best Part: When the tempo shift for the chorus
10 / 10
 
Sad Girl
Another slow jazzy number. Lana is clearly a sad, sad girl as she sings about being a mistress and longing to have her man all to herself. But he’s off frolicking with other women and she’s left alone to be a sad, sad, bad, bad, mad, mad girl.
Best Part: The Bridge - Watch what you say to me, Careful who you're talking to... I’m on fire baby.
6/10
 
Pretty When You Cry
Just when you thought Lana couldn’t possibly get any sadder she brings forth this little number. Her raw emotive vocals sound even more vulnerable than usual. A slow brooding number.
Best Part: The Bridge - Don't say you need me when, You're leaving, you leave again, I'm stronger than all my men, Except for you
8/10
 
Money, Power, Glory
What a deceptive little number of a song. Lana sings with such conviction (I almost believed she wanted all my money) while taking the mickey out of her detractors; playing into the very hands of those who have accused her of being fake and superficial. Her vocals soar once again in a powerful chorus.
Best Part: But that's not what this bitch wants, No what I want at all, I want money, power and glory
9/10
 
F***ed My Way Up To The Top
Well I’ve learnt a lesson here - Dont F**k with Lana. This is a scathing retaliation to a certain pop star who apparently made light of her music style and then proceeded to copy it. She swiftly and royally brings her opponent back down to earth in a song that would never be played uncensored on radio goo goo or radio gaga. Her attitude cuts like a knife on this one.
Best Part: The sizzle before the chorus breaks gets me every time.
9/10
 
Old Money
Aah who knew money could be so beautiful and leave you feeling so empty... Born to Die’s fading glamour returns for one final bow before the curtain falls. Lana sings in her lower register reminiscent of her breakout hit Video Games. This song plays like a sequel to Young and Beautiful, the theme song from The Great Gatsby with Lana looking back on her past with tender memories of her faded carefree youth.
Best Part: Will you still love me when I shine from words but not from beauty.
10/ 10
 
The Other Woman
A jazzy cover closes the standard edition of the album. Lana sings about the other woman in her man’s life. Lana proclaims to be the true love in her man’s life and 'the other woman' will be the one who ends up all alone.
Best Part: When her vocals break slightly in the chorus.
8/10
 
Black Beauty
After an unfortunate leak; the song has been re-arranged into a moody slow rock number. It’s almost sad to see this song tacked on as a bonus track as this is my favourite track on the record. But I am glad it was officially released. Lana tries everything to win over her man who seems depressed and clueless about love. I’m almost sure this would have been a single if it hadn’t been leaked online a few months ago.
Best Part: The whole song
10/10
 
Guns and Roses
The only track I could do without on the record. It kind of plunders along in a moody electronic rock ambience but doesn’t really go anywhere for me. Maybe it’s a grower. Time will tell.
Best Part: When it ends
5 /10
 
Florida Kilos
A fun, somewhat out of place track, compared to the rest of the album. It’s the most pop sounding track on the record and has a Britney style vocal with an irresitable summer vibe.
Best Part: Yayo, yayo, yayo
8/10

I mean, has anyone heard Is This Happiness?  

I LIVE for Lolita Lana.
I fucking love it -majestic, magnetic. 
 
It's sort of like she just discovered overlays lol but it's so beautiful, how it's intertwined with regular scenes. Like when she sees Mark with his car, it's like a real movie. (I like it better than Tropico).
 
Wow, it's like the Off to the races video I never got.

After the first listen to the album, I was feeling a little underwhelmed and like I'd just listened to a very long song lmao. But after like 60 listens -
 
1. West Coast
2. Brooklyn baby
3. Florida Kilos
4. Money Power Glory
5. FMWUTTT
6.  Cruel World
7. Black Beauty

Finally figured out the bridge:
 
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, See you workin' on that blue Pacific. I can see you bathing in the summer light, Turnin' tan and you look terrific.   You got game, boy (etc)

I used to go to church all the time and whenever we sang hymns, they were always alleluia - they use that version in spiritual songs - and MPG IS a spiritual song lol.
Alleluia is the version they usually use in music.
