    okay okay, last post but since im obsessing with this song (and have been for weeks)
    I honestly think it's simply
    "Blue, oyster, clove"
     
    terms for drugs(the song is called meth derp) but COMMAS because different name
     
    -end-
     
    From "Drug Slang Dictionary"
    blue boy - Amphetamine
    blue devils - Methamphetamine
    blue ice - Methamphetamine
    blue meth - Methamphetamine
    blue mollies - Amphetamine
     
    oyster stew - Cocaine
     
     
    can't find anything on clove/glove though?

    Overproduced MESS of a chorus, lukewarm lyrics and an untrained although decent mid-pubescent voice
     
    Tired of these YouTuber's that got famous for absolutely nothing trying to have music careers and shit

    In the car on the way to school. On the bus coming home. On my record player, or from my computer.
    Start to finish, always.
    Lastly when I go to sleep.

    Sorry to bump but I just discovered this song (it was one of the few that slipped through my radar) and it seriously takes me away to another place. The version with the brass…it captures a visual moment in time so well. A youtube comment on one of the videos with the audio for this song describes the feeling I get with accuracy: "it seriously reminds me of being in the passenger seat next to a guy I like, just cruising down an empty highway, while looking out the window at the city skyline."
     
    Its kinda got a Quadron/Robin Hannibal (also of Rhye) vibe to it. So relaxing, so groovy, so sassy, so nostalgic. I'm in love with it. It seems to be just as divisive as Lana herself is, though, interestingly enough - some people really hate it. 
     
    I'm interested in it's backstory too. It doesn't really sound like anything else she's ever done, and especially if its from 2008? It doesn't really bridge any sonic gaps between Kill Kill and AKA or AKA and BTD. I wish Lana released this and went this direction with all her music. I'm so curious about this song and I want more where it came from. And why do some people love it and some people hate it?

    Welcome to LANALYSIS, where we get real unhealthy in our obsessions and absolutely revel in it.

    This is a project I've been maintaining for a while now--Lana + Analysis...get it? The basic purpose is to relate every one of her songs (that's right, every last one of them) to her known and assumed relationships. Not a stone is left unturned. Privacy is violated. The fans rejoice. Mind you, it’s all pure speculation, but ~this is what makes us stans~

    It’s pretty long but an interesting read, if I do say so myself. I hope you enjoy it in all it’s updated glory, and I will continue to update as new information is revealed and new songs come out. I will also be adding pictures, sources, etc. Stay tuned!

    Let’s get started!



    EARLY RELATIONSHIPS (1985 - ~2005)



    LOCAL ROCKSTARS (~2005 - 2009)



    YOU MADE ME NICE FOR A WHILE (2009 - 2011)



    POST-BREAKTHROUGH (2011+)



    IN THE LAND OF DISCREPANCIES



    ADVANCED LANALYSIS



    IN SUMMARY..

    Lingering questions…
    - Who the fuck is K?
    - Who the fuck is Ray?
    - Who the fuck is Bill? Is Bill really K? Does Bill matter at all?
    - What significance do cars play? She mentions eight in total (white Corvette, white Pontiac, blue Chevy Nova/Chevrolet, Cadillac convertible, Mercedes, pickup truck, Lamborghini, Bugatti Veyron)
    - When was she/who was she with in New York City and New Jersey? Ditto LA? Most mysterious and pressing, her time in the South?
    - Did she have a fling with Bradley Soileau?
    - Did Chris C. matter enough to her for her to write songs about him?

    Assumptions Made:
    - Lana was a gogo dancer.
    - K is a drug dealer/murderer, dead or on death row.
    - Jimmy is her ex-fiancé, addicted to cocaine despite a Wikipedia page stressing how healthy he is, associated with Chevrolets.
    - Much of Sirens is about completely different relationships.
    - She fucked Bradley.
    - Mike controlled her career but their relationship wasn’t associated with anything fucked up like drugs or stripping.


    Thanks for reading! I crave both your feedback and theories! This remains a forum collaboration and I don't claim to have the final say on Lanalytical manners.

    For the sake of believability, I'm always hunting receipts, and currently:
    - The interview where she refers to "Yayo" as the prequel to "Video Games"
    - The interview where she describes "Video Games" as dealing with mutual sobriety in a relationship--her and her partner both staying clean.
    - The interview where she talks about meeting her boyfriend in rehab and being dazzled by his small-scale celebrity.

    yes!! 
  18. Wilde_child liked a post in a topic by Greenwich in Favourite Lana Songs   
    AXL ROSE HUSBAND : Probably one of my favorite songs, it just stung me hard when I first really got into it. Come back to me. Bam, lol
    the guitar is just amazing, when she says king and queen its so hauntingly beautiful. shocks me everytime. It's up there, this song
     
    1949 : Ugh, god this song can save me from the worst moods ever, I don't know if anyone likes this song as much as I do, it hurts to listen to, its just so amazing. The lyrics make me sad. (I know I know, the whole thing is literally a direct reference to Lolita, but not all of it.) So you might say the lyrics are unoriginal, but thats not true. 
    I just relate to this song so goddamn much, it's definitely my favorite song, but i don't want to pick favorites, haha
    Whenever i press play and  hear the first guitar chord, it just breaks my heart. i relate to this 
     
    BOARDING SCHOOL : I think I like this so much because it reminds me a specific day when i was with my friends. I'm a huge fan of the live version, even though it is cut off.   but its mega cute, the lyrics always make smile though cheap trailer trash.....
     
    PEACE / ALL YOU NEED : damn... nuff said. this song... i think i just really really appreciate it because of its length. the lyrics are incredibly beautiful, i love everything off of sirens and those eps..
     
    honorable mentions...:            drive by, try tonight, how do you know me so well, PRETTY BABY, you, mister,  AVIATION, 
    kill kill, mermaid hotel, lolita demo, elvis
