https://www.thefourohfive.com/music/review/album-review-taylor-swift-lover-156 And yet music critics acted stunned and self-righteous when Lana took issue with a section of a review I still disagree with the manner in which she did it, but the entire community's reaction was quite petulant. Calling her "dumb," "not self-aware," saying she should be thankful for critics, etc.

My CD has the "demo" version of FIILY. Weird - I wonder if future releases of the album will have the streaming/music video/single version. -
I wonder if that's an intentional throwback reference to the Lizzy apartment shoot they did.

Ann spoke about the reaction here: https://www.npr.org/2019/09/07/758578061/critiquing-lana-del-ray I think it's a very articulate response to Lana's tweets, and I wish Lana would respond in a more respectful manner to explain her impulsive reaction.

I’d love to contribute - a lot of my support for Lana is connected to shared sobriety and songs about alcohol. Had the opportunity to share this with her during a concert as well.

She actually has a really good shot at an AOTY nomination if her team remembered to submit. It’s a weak year and she’s the most acclaimed of the popular albums by a good margin. -
Cool thread idea! No order: Ultraviolence - Lana Del Rey Teen Dream - Beach House Among My Swan - Mazzy Star OK Computer - Radiohead Nina Simone Sings the Blues - Nina Simone Butterfly - Mariah Carey One in a Million - Aaliyah If You Can Believe Your Eyes and Ears - Mamas and Papas Lost in a Dream - The War on Drugs Tusk - Fleetwood Mac I’m forgetting a lot I already know

This is a much better explanation of her self-concept. She's so much more eloquent when she takes time to contemplate her response prior to speaking. I wish she'd tweet something along those lines - that she reacted impulsively because of past criticisms.

I said this in the other thread, but: LDR was viciously and unjustly attacked for years for the most misogynist of reasons - it's understandable why she's sensitive to criticism, especially ones that allude to a disproven conspiracy theory about authenticity and appearance. HOWEVER, I think it's best when she continually lets her fantastic music do the talking in disproving the early criticisms. She made herself look really bad responding to an article that was mostly positive in such a condescending manner. As far as the controversy - It's very telling for me that she received such significant criticism early on and now - when she releases her most overwhelmingly acclaimed album - suddenly, there's a narrative from music journalists that she's been immune to criticism. Quite revisionist.

https://twitter.com/sad13/status/1169615810693931009 Y'all read this thread.

Reviews have really slowed. I wonder how many more we'll get.

When she said they made videos for the entire album - she was exaggerating, right? The painted video idea for LS is spectacular. Someone needs to force her to do it. -
I’ll try to keep it short NFR: Why wait for the best when I could have you? MAC: Cause even in the dark I feel your resistance/You can see my heart burning in the distance/Baby, I’m your man VB: You’re beautiful and I’m insane - we’re American made FIILY: Chances/Jazz is in my veins, running out of time. LS: I believe that you see me for who I am, so spill my clothes on the floor of your new car. Is it safe to just be who we are? CG: there’s things I want to say to you, but I’ll just let you live. HTD: I watch the skies getting light as I write and I think about those years, as I whisper in your ear “No one’s going anywhere. I’ll always be right here.” California: You’re scared to win, scared to lose. I heard the war was really over if you choose the one in and around you. You hate the heat, you’ve got the blues. Changing like the weather, oh, that’s so like you. The Santa Ana moves you. TNBAR: My baby used to dance underneath my architecture. We lost track of space, we lost track of time. TG: We didn’t know that we had it all, but nobody warns you before the fall. Bartender: Baby, remember, I’m not drinking wine, but that Cherry Coke you serve is fine. HIAB: It escapes from my hands into moonlight. HIADT: A modern day woman with a weak constitution ‘cause I’ve got monsters still under my bed that I could never fight off. A gatekeeper carelessly dropping thr keys on my nights off.
