Strangely . . . I understood every word here.

I'm wondering if they broke up but agreed to keep liking each other's shit/acting normal so we wouldn't send rats and/or they've agreed to be friends ... 
 
I guess we'll find out when she goes to Europe, because he allegedly told a fan last week that he was going. 

Ride
Dark Paradise
Off to the Races
Blue Jeans
The Other Woman
 
Hmm... very possibly. 2012 Lana is what turned us all into fans so yeah. Ride alone would be enough.

Wow. Your finest topic yet!!
 
Je suis 3. The horrifying glory.

Someone has to ask the important questions. You're welcome.
 
You're hangry, so you order pizza. Obviously, you have to look presentable enough to answer the door, but standards of presentation vary. Especially with Lanz.
 
Which Lanz do you answer the door as?
 
Vote noew.

Well actually, she sang it on Instagram so we knew about it for a long time, since 2016.

Wild on You/Color Blue on the other hand...

She can't copy Lana if Lana hasn't actually made anything. I sure don't have a book or recoding of Lana's poetry yet! 
Also PS - since they move in the same circles, Florence had a poem book out first anyway!

Are you experiencing a problem, or are you just bumping these support threads for fun? x

Which is really rad, for anyone wondering.

^ She'll probably have a book out before our good sis

I can't disagree more with your points, but while most of these are obviously objective I do find your criticism on the lyrics interesting as I know that you're also a big fan of Love Song (I am too). Love's lyrics are nostalgic and coquettish, but also earnest - I feel there is a very close tie to how straight forward both songs are in their messaging since both thematically are discussing young love, and both a pretty wistful in their reflection. "It's enough to be young and in love" runs the same flavour as "Be my once-in-a-lifetime" and "Thanks for the high life" as it's reflecting on the simplistic joy of being love/in love. I can't say the lyrics on Love are any more, or less, sophisticated than Love Song. But I definitely think the lyrics are more tongue-in-cheek and clever than tracks like say Lucky Ones or Diet Mountain Dew. Also the perception, the retrospective in the tense of understanding she is now not in the same generation is a really charming touch. Worldy, wise and experienced after experiencing what she is singing about - hence the tense changing on the final chorus.
 
LFL came out in the months that I was getting interested in Lana but didn't really know much of her catalogue, so I wonder if I would be one of the 'people' you mention perceiving her as a boring artist. If that would be the case, I think she definitely defied my expectations. She is singing about how GREAT, wholesome and fulfilling it is to be in love. I think the music video certainly helps with the enjoyment of the song - paired with the track it is so rich with intertextual references. I remember loving her cheeky broad smile and shimmy on "Uh uh / Don't worry, baby" since it's making light and stripping away the drama of 'young love' (which is ridiculous - somehow the most important thing in the world at the time, but on reflection nothing special). It was certainly unexpected for - what I knew as the 'Young and Beautiful singer' - to make a breezy, warm song that told people not to worry, and how even the most mundane things are special when you're in love. 
 
Love the instrumental though - everything down to the Emile's samples that were included in Off to the Races.
 
It also has the best message - just don't worry, baby.
 
@Elle, I can understand your perception of the song being really soured, but ranking Love below the identity crisis that is Coachella is . . !

Omg, so this album to me holds a very special place in my heart for many reasons, but I love this album. It was the first era where I was fully invested in her, like I experienced the Honeymoon era, but it was more casual sort of. I mean I was already a mega fan by late 2014, but didn’t consistently follow everything she did. I still remember the day that the song Love leaked. The first time I heard it I thought to myself, damn I might not be a huge fan of this song, but by the 4th or 5th listen I was Young and in Love lol. Anyway after that she released the Lust For Life song and I was instantly in love. I know a lot of people hate that song, but to me it’s perfect. The beginning of the song sounds so eerie and haunting. When I heard the motorcycle or engine being revved up I pictured this beautiful video. But yea. The lyrics to that song the the only the good die young or whatever hit me so hard, because In August of 2016 I lost my boyfriend at the time in a car accident and I was so heartbroken and it was just a very terrinle time for me. So I felt like she wrote that song specifically for me idk how to explain it lol. But anyway, the more songs she released the more I knew that I was going to love this album. I always think of what could have been had she not taken a more political aesthetic (lol) in the second part of the album. Maybe we would have gotten more cherry like songs and etc, which would have been amazing because Cherry is just amazing. Didn’t she say or there were rumors that the album was originally going to be called “Lost For Life”?

This. Love is timeless. It sounds like a song she would release near the end of her career.
I always think about how much sentimental value it’s gonna have like 40 years down the line when we’re much older.

Top 5
 
1. Love
2. Heroin
3. Tomorrow Never Came
4. Get Free
5. 13 Beaches
 
It honestly blows my mind that people don't like Love... It is so special. I think it is because every other song is so much about her and tied to her experiences that this song stands out so much as her being an observer. When I first heard the song I thought that she sounded so wise and was singing with someone who has experienced life so much more than her earlier songs. I think this song is her kind of seeing herself as an outsider to a younger generation that she is no longer a part of and she is wishing for that new generation to have hope and she is receiving hope from watching them do things for no reason other than being young and in love with life.
