and its the dead of winter. They've all migrated away from LanaBoards. We're surrounded by moths.

1. Tell me about the inspiration behind your song Body Electric and what is it's personal meaning for you.
2. When will you release Life Is Beautiful already?
3. Why did you never sing Bel Air/This Is What Makes Us Girls/ Lucky Ones/Sad Girl live ever? (and then I'd encourage her to do them)
4. Why in the world did you scrap Fine China and Your Girl from Ultraviolence, but you put Guns and Roses on there?

Why?
The FUCK?
Are you?
Like this???

can you imagine Hope with a cinematic Honeymoon albumesque strings production... HIADTFAWLMTHAHSHBSJS was robbed

omfg we srsly are going to hit page 2000 with no news

"In California and London I’m getting recognised more and more. It’s usually really friendly exchanges – someone will just say, ‘Is it you?’ And I usually just say, ‘Yes’."
 
This sent me 
 
"It's me ur lil venice bitch"

my $0.02 on the hope is a keyboard smash discourse: i actually really love the somewhat awkward, almost ungainly lines (e.g. ipad, shaking my ass, etc. etc.). they kind of break the 4th wall a bit and feel like an allusion to the whole idea of feeling not entirely comfortable in her image/persona. like yes, she could write another song about eternal love and red lipstick and jewelry and being pretty while she cries and her beautiful man and cars and the color blue and drinking and smoking and living fast and dying young and eating ice cream, with lyrics that look and sound pretty and fit into aesthetic moodboards, but instead she inserts these decidedly unpoetic images into her usual template. the whole thing feels almost abrasive: the lyrics, the almost total lack of production (you want strings? you want beats? you want guitars? here, have a couple piano chords), the aggressively informal cover art, the sentence-length, decapitalized title (no other song in her discography has a title like that). the more i think about it, the more it appears like a concerted effort to smash things up, especially considering it's the last complete song we've gotten from her. it seems almost like a tacit scream of frustration, like someone locked in a room (the persona/sound/style/image she's acquired, for better or for worse) banging on the walls and smashing the glass in the picture frames. like, "maybe i can't unlock the door and leave but i can at least subvert what i'm supposed to do in here and how i'm supposed to behave."
 
maybe i'm reaching but when you put all the pieces together it just feels really sad and desperate and angry idk even despite the chorus and title

I'd pull an Ayesha, honestly

Why would you think such a thing?!  

You're going to relate it to her friends again, aren't ya? 

To me, they're like verbal exclamations so I like that they're there.
 
I love that it took her 3 years to complete, though. One year to write the title, and two years to write the lyrics.
 
Do you reaaaaaaally want to ask me that question .... haha

The fact it took three years for her to finish Hope while she also took only four hours to make the far superior both sonically and lyrically Change should be laughable 

NFR is a dangerous thing for us stans to have - but we don’t have itProbably forced it on herself not knowing what to do with the sudden virality (?) of Video Games and subsequent fame, imo. Trying to hold onto that momentum where everything was happening for her to get things started. Shit, imagine if something like that were to happen to you. I wouldn’t know what to do lol!

"Well, I thought so, too. I thought my tastes and likes were pretty normal, but then I met everyone and I was like, “These people don’t actually care about music and art. They want to be cool.” I never met anyone who cared about music as deeply as me and my boyfriend, or who really cared about poetry—who really lived it and breathed it. I haven’t met anyone so far. I just can’t affiliate with those people."
 
I'm just going to bold these statements and leave this here.

Stan Twitter has discovered that the sunglasses in actor guy's story are, in fact, her Gucci ones.
 

 
I'm just dying reading all the in-depth analyses/comparisons of the tortoiseshell pattern. I bet neither of them thought people would figure it out. LMAO.
 

Thou shall not THOT to Cinnamon. They probably can't even appreciate it the same, downlow hoes

lmfao I can recognize the Bad Romance choreo from a mile away

Leaked footage of Hillsong members dancing to Cinnamon
 

3 years for a song with no production other than a piano that sounds like it was recorded in mono at 128kbps...

No info about nfr?? Crying in King Jon Un language

I agree!

the hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have - but i have it slander..

Shades of Cool and Cruel World solidifying their places amongst her top 5 best songs of all time

I hope the album will have another song like Shades of Cool. Shades of Cool is my alltime favorite Lana song, next to Black Beauty and The Blackest Day, which is funny cause Black Beauty and Shades of Cool basically have the exact same message. Mariners Apartment Complex is kinda in the same vein where she's singing about a depressed lover, but it's not really a sad song.
