  1. "Well for me personally God isn’t important" "I feel a strong relationship with God and I feel my ties are with him"
  2. The "West Coast" lyrics were prophetic
  3. "After the last festival the whole thing will be done for me. What will come next? I don’t know." "Shared my body and my life with you That's way over now There's not more I can do" ?
  4. Thanks--how did you capture the stream? What format was it in? How did you split the tracks? Because there are ways to do that without re-encoding the files . . .
  5. "That’s my primary relationship, really, is with something divine." "Being a mistress on the side It might not appeal to fools like you Creeping around on the side Would not be something you would do But you haven't seen my man" It seems more as if she is implying "surrender" to God (to put it in simple terms) ... but she seemed to be happy with people thinking UV was about a literal relationship (because she is a bad bitch) until NPR forced the issue
  6. http://www.npr.org/2014/06/21/323209791/lana-del-rey-i-dont-have-other-people-in-mind The comments They would probably be better if this pure sweet angel had declared herself a Satanist :biblio:
  7. Is it allowed to go here? Edit: 256kbps download link on the SoundCloud the UV tracks sound amazing live and kind of make me hate Dan Auerbach and whoever brickwall mastered that CD
  8. At ~9 minutes in she talks about the West Coast video's symbolism, inserting double meanings, "Easter eggs," and how the car scene is meant to be "heavenly" and reflect how she wishes things would be http://www.newkabbalah.com/partzuf.html Lana depicts the celestial mother and father (Abba and Imma) in relation, which is how she wishes the world to be, rather than divided from God by the Abyss Daddy lighting her cig = the flow of energy from Chokmah to Binah Ze'ir Anpin = Bradley (the man nailed to the cross) DN = Din, harsh judgment http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gevurah The phrase "Master of the Universe" she uses in Tropico comes from Judaism HA IMPACT http://www.cnn.com/2014/06/19/showbiz/gerry-goffin-dead/index.html?hpt=hp_t2
  9. hi apook I guess the issue was with the Guardian making "I wish I was dead already" into a sensationalist headline, which the NYT didn't do
  10. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/15/arts/music/lana-del-rey-still-stirs-things-up-with-ultraviolence.html if anything it guilt-tripped reviewers into giving her better scores
  11. "Shared my body and my mind with you That's all over now Did what I had to do 'Cause you're so far past me now Shared my body and my life with you That's way over now There's not more I can do You're so famous now" Is this a hint?
  12. Yessss I seriously wonder how you can stay gay
  13. This seems like one of those albums that has to be listened to on vinyl
  14. The Other Woman: "He calls for me, and not for you . . ." "Cruising down Santa Monica Boulevard Does it light up the spark? Do you remember my name? Is she a Ride or Die Bitch? Does she know I'm tattooed onto your heart? You can try to fight it. I have left my mark on you There is nothing you can do... When you think you're over me And your bad baby is dead and gone Remember I'm the ghost in your machine I'm your real life suicide blonde. You're in love, you're in love, You're in love Well she might be here, might be hot But baby she's not me."
  15. SHADES OF COOL VIDEO The girl in white and the girl in red, Mary and Eve. Soul approaches Ego (Last Year's Man), living in Shades of Cool. His heart is unbreakable. Note Lanz repeatedly gesturing over her heart. The Subject observes the girl in her red party dress as the Object -- the Dark Horse is her sensual Black Beauty (life is beautiful, but you don't have a clue) Lana's concern is with the union of Subject and Object that comes from crossing the Abyss; Body, too, is part of Soul (as she said via Whitman) Shiva and Shakti Daddy says we're all one, but there seems to be an awful lot of space Within You and "Without You" http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/15/arts/music/lana-del-rey-still-stirs-things-up-with-ultraviolence.html "jumping into the Abyss" "You have to take me from this dark trailer park life right now . . ." Lizzy pricks her finger on the Still Point of the Spinning Wheel and "dies" her hair a darker shade of brown http://www.sacred-texts.com/oto/engccxx.htm "I'm lying in the ocean, singing your song Ahhh, that's how you sang it Loving you forever, can't be wrong Even though you're not here, won't move on Ahhh, that's how we played it And there's no remedy For memory Your face is like a melody, It won't leave my head Your soul is haunting me And telling me That everything is fine But I wish I was dead (dead like you)" http://www.mythsdreamssymbols.com/animaanimus.html "I can hear sirens, sirens" Eve's apple becomes the strawberry of initiation (a nod to Katy's "Wide Awake" video? perish the thought); the instrument of the Fall becomes the instrument of the Gnostic Regeneration
  16. Remember this http://lanaboards.com/index.php?/topic/4671-lana-in-intro-magazine/ Lana isn't doing country-pop . . .
  17. Down on the West Egg they got a sayin' http://thegreatjaygatsby.blogspot.com/2010/06/old-money-v-new-money.html Definitely sounds like it was written for the film
  18. I'm guessing the song is about her fans (it's all for you): http://radio.com/2014/06/12/lana-del-rey-interview-maleficent-ultraviolence/ Young, wild, free -- dancing circles around her, crazy for her The "red party dress" is a repeating signifier of being an Object perceived by numerous Subjects. "The roses had the look of flowers that are looked at."
  19. Turns out this was from a reliable insider source
  20. This shit is about Lorde and that's why it's awesome but then again I only started liking her after "So Legit" leaked I think the synthetic beats and vaguely OTTR sound are meant to imply that Lorde is, in fact, the manufactured fame-whore star chasing "Glory and Gore" while Lana is the "live and organic" Other Woman chasing something more transcendent ("You talk lots about God / Freedom comes from the call") -- or, like, Lorde is her Carmen-esque doppelgaenger, prophetically referenced when she said, "Only seventeen, but she walks the streets so mean" So, like Lennon's "How Do You Sleep," the song ends up being about part of herself (BTD hip-hop Lana, "The sun also rises / On those who fail the call") that she then sacrificially destroys Consider that she most likely used the man from Katy Perry's "ET" video in Tropico for a reason; again she is the Other Woman on the pop charts
  21. "retroactive 5/5 for Born to Die" http://www.tinymixtapes.com/music-review/lorde-pure-heroine I hope he likes FMWUTTT
