This song is probably one of the most underrated, I don't ever see anyone talking about it... it's really good, guys. 

I guess I don't mean since UV. I more or less mean since BtD and Paradise. I'm lumping Big Eyes with the UV era. From her first record to now, there's been general improvement to me.

I think she just wrote them with the film in mind so they're less "Lana-esque." She's a smart writer...I don't think she had much help in making these more conventional.

That or she's just maturing lyrically. I agree with you though. Especially with the possible push for an Oscar nom/win, I'm sure there was more "help" involved than normal.

With your big eyes
And your big lies
With your big eyes
And your big lies
 
I saw you creeping around the garden
What are you hiding?
I beg your pardon
Don’t tell me "nothing"
 
I used to think that I could trust you
I was your woman
You are my knight and shining companion
 
To my surprise
My love's demise
Was his own greed and lullaby
 
With your big eyes
And your big lies
With your big eyes
And your big lies
 
I noticed you got hot in summer
You had no comfort
Your shirt was cotton
Your face was sunburned
 
You paced around like you’d been waiting
Waiting for something
Your world was burning
And I stood watching
 
As I looked down
The flames were high
You watched me frown
I said "goodbye"
 
With your big eyes
And your big lies
With your big eyes
And your big lies
 
Is it me, was I wrong to have trusted you?
Did I see what I wanted, what wasn’t true?
Was I wrong to go on like a little fool?
It’s amazing what women in love will do
 
With your big eyes
And your big lies
With your big eyes
And your big lies

She looks flawless, as always. That dress is definitely in my top 5... IT'S SO PRETTY ON HER

What a shame she is put with those...... people

thank you! i've been listening to this non-stop since thanksgiving and the lyrics we have don't make much sense. 
 
If anyone has any ideas... it doesn't sound like she is saying "Tiara" ?

I can hear it... It makes more sense, too.

Sounds like she could be saying Ray Gillen instead of Greg Kinnear here. He performed in Black Sabbath, Phenomena (possible inspiration for LG+TP?), and Badlands before his death in 1993. She used to have a tribute page to Ray Gillen on her top friends on MySpace and he was from New Jersey as well. 
 

So let's discuss every movie that has a rape scene in it. I think they should all be banned.
 
I've been quiet about this the whole time but I feel now that the fuzz about this is over I can express myself. It's an art project. It's supposed to be shocking as most art projects are these days. Nothing new, nothing exciting. It's not an actual rape scene but an enactment of a rape scenario. It was also probably completely taken out of context due to the fact that this might only be a short preview of the full project.
 
I seriously don't get why everyone is being so sensitive about everything nowadays. I've given my two cents, drag me, whatever...I'm out.

Aw, new friends for Evil.

awww this is so sweet of you tho!     

what the fuck is even going through your mind?
 
+ literally she's so pretty on the cover? y'all got issues, especially with your 'boobless' debate, get a fucking life you disgusting degenerates

Omg cant believe Neil Krug did this one too. He's amazing

i think some people are just better at mental segregation than others. i mean eli roth is kind of sexy and i'd totally "not" let him in me and lana does look beautiful in the video but it doesn't mean i also think rape is somehow right or any less wrong 
 
people these days get offended over the tiniest little shits because they want so badly to prove to the world (i.e those within their social media microsphere) that they're opinionated and indignant and fighting for the rights of all humans and insects because we all need oxygen to live and we're all one and anyone that impinges upon their feelings of solidarity and strength and most importantly, maturity might as well burn black people at the stake or fuck women raw in alleyways without their permission 

Funny though, so many reactions at a video about rape, but 1/3 of Lana's songs (take old version of diet mtn dew) depict some sort of sexual violence (not to say abuse) and everyone was like "this is my jam".
 
I don't find the video appealing in ANY sort of way. And even less since it's out of context and it was uploaded so much time later while Lana's UV was flopping hard. I mean, suddenly we get the news she's recording two songs for a movie, the last interviews talked about how Lana has some strange sickness that hurts her entire body and "No doctor can diagnose properly", and this video?

I seriously think that whoever's behind the character they created for Lana should stop because all those tumblr reactions that everyone's scandalizing about are somehow "justified"; That's the "Lana" they've been selling from A.K.A. Tropico was a brief approach, and things are getting more literal and now you're all surprised?

But hey, let's keep on listening to songs about "beeing beat up by daddy".



EDIT: INB4 anyone says "OMGG!!1111!! U THINK LANA IS NOT REAL, U THINK LANA IS A LIE/MANUFACTURED PRODUCT?''??'?''!00?!2?"

yes. I think so.
 

This is two years old

And we'll never be raaaaaapists (raaaapists)...
 
 
 

 
Wow. Ben and the PR teams of everyone else involved are working overtime on this. They're trying to bury this thing hard. (Will they ever learn? C'mon, it's the internet. ) First Sturmgruppe took down the stills and video of this, now they've taken down all their content.
 
Manson's camp is denying this hard. The last line is completely laughable: "It must be a fan video splicing up old Manson video footage with someone else's Lana Del Rey footage."
 
Do we have proof of this? What do we know about Sturmgruppe? Otherwise the rest of the Manson denial (aside from the silly "fan video" bit) could be true. If we can link Manson to Sturmgruppe (and I mean more than just producing his videos, like ownership or more direct involvement) we can still link Sturmgruppe to posting the video. (I have a screenshot if the cached link expires.) Funny to see Manson actually wanting to distance himself from controversy though.

oh my god people exaggerate so much, I really don't think anyone honestly feels this strongly about the images, they just want to be seen as some sort of anti-rape advocate. Being offended is a new trend in 2014. Get over it   You're not heroic for condemning this

+ I also think it was very stupid for them to take down their site and the video itself, you should stand by whatever you create.
