Lana and the Harvey Weinstein Controversy
DeadAgainst replied to t-raider26's topic in Lana Thoughts
This story was on the front page of my news feed; I suppose it would be wrong to say "get dat promo" -
National Anthem basically predicted the Trump presidency when you think about it

MONEY IS THE ANTHEM OF SUCCESS

umm yeah, we're bringing cassette back grandpa, go play with your 5CD changer while I bump this in my 97 luxury sedan
-
The cassette has no Dolby NR on it so be sure to turn it OFF, guys The hiss aesthetic does serve to smooth over some of those harsh ProTools sounds that mar the CD (looking at Rick Nowels here)

The Paradise and the esoteric origin of mankind

Only going to note the Black Beauty / White Mustang parallels of horse (heroin?)-based symbology I think you'll find there's a bit more to him than that -
coincidentally @lanadelraytheon is my fave political twitter

She was on a roll of kino-tier videos up through Shades of Cool After Interscope obviously fugged with Ultraviolence she clearly stopped caring so much about the art

Just gonna gloat about this for a while. -
The Paradise and the esoteric origin of mankind
DeadAgainst replied to litewave's topic in Lana Thoughts
Finally, I'm crossing the threshold From the ordinary world To the reveal of my heart Undoubtedly, that will for certain Take the dead out of the sea And the darkness from the arts Some of her most revealing lyrics; cross-reference with everything said before: Crossing from the ordinary world below the Abyss to the heart's noetic world, the raising of the dead in the esoteric sense I can't remember which interview she said that the Love video represented space as ascending to a higher plane of being ... anyone know? http://www.journaldesfemmes.com/loisirs/musique/1875230-lana-del-rey-interview/ Je suis mystique dans l'âme. L'histoire de l'ésotérisme et de la magie me parle. J'aime l'idée d'être sur la Lune pour Love ou dans une ambiance futuriste pour le clip de White Mustang, qui va bientôt sortir. C'était important de marquer symboliquement que je vais de l'avant. J'ai consciemment voulu orienter ma vie vers le futur. Ce renouveau devait aussi être allégorique. C'est amusant comme de nouvelles images vous apparaissent quand votre vision des choses évolue. Je me rends compte que j'étais bloquée dans le passé. Je n'aurais jamais pensé à ces univers il y a quelques années. "I am mystical at my core. The story of esotericism and magic speaks to me. I love the idea of being on the Moon for Love or in a futuristic atmosphere for the clip of White Mustang, which will soon be released. It was important to mark symbolically that I am moving forward. I consciously wanted to direct my life towards the future. This renewal must also have been allegorical. It's fun as new images appear to you when your vision of things evolves. I realize that I was stuck in the past. I would never have thought of these universes a few years ago. " -

This album has singlehandedly given me insomnia; the songs are so earwormy that I can't get them out of my head at night -
Any of the ones where she tries to channel Jessica Rabbit

AKA's production sucks guys Literally every demo track sounds better than the glossy, overproduced, overcompressed final version

Lana Del Rey Born to Die Billboard Chart Immortality

Can we just appreciate the genius of the Paradise Edition ensuring that Summertime Sadness plebs will hear masterpieces like Cola -
God Bless America = Radiohead's "High and Dry" with the "leave me dry" When the World Was at War sounds like spacy acoustic Radiohead i.e. "Exit Music (For a Film)"
-
I dashed this off before going to work so of course Sam Cooke's "A Change is Gonna Come" is an obvi one

No you can't :[[[[ https://www.urbanoutfitters.com/shop/lana-del-rey---honeymoon-cassette-tape I checked the local store and nothin' so stock up if your UO still does
-
Paradise and Ultraviolence for different reasons Paradise for being the best expression of baroque pop with the lushest arrangements Ultraviolence for being the rawest and most organic and authentically vintage sound (MELLOTRON!) But ultimately UV probably wins out, although only before it got ruined in mastering

So many little things in LfL seem to remind me of other songs ... Love The Ronettes - Be My Baby The Beach Boys - Don't Worry Baby Lust for Life That Iggy Pop song, what was it called? The Angels - My Boyfriend's Back 13 Beaches Kate Bush's 9th Wave (?) God Bless America When the World Was at War (Radiohead generally) Tomorrow Never Came (Help-era Beatles generally) Changes Phil Collins - In the Air Tonight Get Free The Shirelles - Baby It's You Radiohead - Creep
