  1. That's something I've been always wondering about. At her debut, I expected her to be another Hollywood big music label "star" since everything looked perfectly staged. But after having her followed, I realized that she's different since she chooses her music on her own, her performances and even cancels various performances. The reason might be that she is not that expensive for her label, so they don't really care that much
  2. But don't you agree that she lost her magic she spread back then while performing live? She used to appear really energetic, but since last year's tour she kind of looks like bored
  3. I agree on the lazy part in terms of music performance, but I don't get why you reduce her to looks? Lana has never been an artist who wears unusual costumes and stuff like that. I think the reason why people want to see her shows is that she is focused on delivering music on stage. Most of us just want her to perform other songs. I don't mind if she wears jeans and a t-shirt as long as she performs well.
  4. Yes! Why did she even remove them. I loved them during the BTD Tour
  5. Just found a video of the Freak perfomance. Is it poor recording quality or did it really sound like some cult rituals were happening in the background while she was singing?
  6. Does anyone know if she hit the high notes in Cola? They kill me every time
  7. When recently more songs leaked, she was like "these gays will get what they deserve" and put this setlist together
  8. Exactly! UV is basically created to be played live. Kinda disappointed
  9. I feel like she got pretty lazy. She doesn't owe us anything, but she could have played at least some new songs since she didn't even promote HM. I remember her talking proudly of HM
  10. How dare she not to play TBD and Salvatore. I WANNA FIGHT HER
  11. I never understood why she did not play PWYC. I mean, it's perfect for live performances
  12. I'm not a native speaker, but as far as I recall it means "hoes with lies are similar to me"
  13. HBTB: I would not say its lyrics are bad. First of all, there are two options to interpret the lyrics (love or her relationship with the paparazzi). Secondly, the last part ("everyone can start again ...") is pretty good, in my opinion. Salvatore: I think it is brilliant since its sound itself is heavy and serious whereas the lyrics change gradually to a point where she is almost making fun of him. I think Honeymoon, the song, has the worst lyrics. Sonically, it is beyond beautiful, but lyrically, pretty weak.
  14. Can you elaborate? Tbh, I don't see any concept behind HM except beautiful music. Whereas BTD and UV do have a concept. BTD is dedicated to the American Dream (love, money, fame). And UV is just something destructive and dark
  15. I was amazed by this when I found this on genius: "Pink flamingos aren’t actually born pink. They become pink through their diet; Lana’s reference to them has transformative undertones. She believes that through her peace and acceptance of something she has no power over (her man leaving). she has gained a new sense of understanding and womanhood (like a flamingo turning pink)"
  16. If this is not the right place, I'm sorry. The mods can move it
  17. She could do albums like UV 10x in a row and I wouldn't still get enough. I just fell in love with its sound. Eventhough I'd love OTTR 2
  18. I'd like to share my short "review" on Honeymoon. The reason why I fell in love with Lana’s music is simple: She expressed feelings through her words I couldn’t express myself. I was bored by what mainstream artists were delivering at that time. Everything that was released sounded the same. The first few times when I listened to Honeymoon, I was disappointed by her lyrics. And frankly, I was worried about this to happen eventually. Nevertheless, I loved in terms of instruments, especially after having listened to the instrumental versions. Let’s go back to the lyrics issue. Lyrics are important to me. I prefer music that has good lyrics. As I mentioned before, I was disappointed at first. After a while, I realized that Honeymoon actually does have great lyrical moments. The metaphor „Ground control to major tom“ in TLY is really beautiful. Additionally, the way how Salvatore is built: It starts with her admiring this guy, and even comparing him to a King. In the end, she suddenly changes her view: „salvatore can wait, now it’s time to eat soft ice cream“. In my opinion, this turn kind of shows how she is playing with him. It almost sounds as she is making fun of him. Another great moment is the „pink flamingo“ part which I think is an allusion to the transformation flamingos go through to become pink. The title is „MTBW“, so she basically went through a transformation as well since she used to be the one who was left alone and sad by her lovers. Now she just watches them leaving, not being hurt. In fact, I could go on but I think and hope that you guys get what I wanted to express What do you think?
  19. The violins in MTWBT when she sings "I see you leaving". Heartbreaking
