Excellent! But still not sure this will be enough to handle a "Why Trump Is Stupid" thread.

IDK guys. @Elle said the forum is low on space already.

...if you ignore all the massacres of non-white people in the 1800s... Get out of here with your Bush did 9-11 Sandy Hook truther bullshit. Besides, you know Trump is gonna finger a Muslim refugee or a Mexican when he lights his Reichstag fire

I'd bet cake she'll perform "Chelsea Hotel No. 2". But perhaps she'll borrow from the last time she played a Leonard Cohen tribute and do "Dance Me to the End of Love".

Also, Bill Schuette is terrible.

"Burning Desire" & "Summertime Sadness" beg to differ.

Given her difficulty with facts, Lana must not think she's very sexy. http://lanaboards.com/index.php?/statuses/user/2970-bekim/?status_id=131864 Lana in "Video Games" as the submissive girlfriend fetching ale for the sadist pulling all our strings

Anybody else get a sort of date rapey vibe from these lines, in a sort of "Baby, It's Cold Outside" kind of way?

#butthurt Lana literally does not care if she loses you as a fan. Wait... you're offended by GBA? I mean, sure, the main melody in the chorus is a little lazy, and the verse lyrics are weirdly submissive for a purported "feminist anthem"... but you're triggered by it?

Dude, we've talked about this.

Didn't Questlove produce the "Groove Is In the Heart" cover (which really needs to leak in full)?

On old screencaps of her MySpace page, a podcast called I Got My Reasons posted an invitation on July 23, 2008 for her to do an interview. I have no idea if she ever did one on any subsequent shows, or if any of her music was played, but I'm pretty sure this is the podcast if anyone wants to dig: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/igotmyreasons Looks like the URLs for the individual shows are constructed with the upload date.

Fellow old-timers, remind me... when do we believe HDB was first posted online in either audio or video form?

This... is a pretty innocuous reference.

A friend of mine can't go to Lollapalooza tomorrow. Anyone interested in buying his bracelet?

Tyler, the Creator or Meek Mills won if you don't count the 3 million illegals that bought LDR's record... http://www.thefader.com/2017/08/01/billboard-hot-singles-albums-charts-delayed-tyler-the-creator-lana-del-rey-meek-mill

These lyrics are eminently quotable. Some good mod smackdown shit right here: #tbt to this classic forum moment #oldschool

I always had a thing for Topanga too. Calling out @Trash Magic for his faked moon landing conspiracy theorism. Thanks for the shoutout, Lana, but as I said in Part 1 of my covers-themed podcast, I'll never change my evil ways.

Ha! She says this as if his location was why they couldn't work together in person on it. But in an interview Rick Nowels recently gave, he said Sean Lennon recorded his contributions "in his studio in upstate New York." I mean, it's just too bad Lizzy Grant wouldn't know anyone or have anyplace to stay in upstate New York............ Well, that's 'cause it is a trap. One she set for herself. Not sure what you expect when you write a schizophrenic song with a deliberately overt feminist anthem chorus punctuating verses with lyrics expressing retrograde gender dynamics like "only you can save me tonight".

You sell yourself so short on AKA, Lana. And if you love HM & UV so much you should perform more tracks off them. But relative dust appropriately paid here to BTD and Paradise. #FightMe Ugh, I want to hear decidedly political LDR.

He's not really a public figure so I don't think it's really appropriate to post stuff like that on the forum, but FWIW in recent pictures (if I've indeed got the right guy) he looks kind of like Jason Sudeikis if he had the physique of his uncle George Wendt. As I speculated in Part 1 of my covers themed podcast, I'm 99% certain one of them would have been "Heartbreak Hotel" since she was known to cover it with her backing band in her pre-fame days. In the chat when I livestreamed that podcast, I speculated that another candidate might have been "Edge of Reality" since she once included it in a playlist of her favorite tracks. I might hazard different guesses today.

Yeah, but people were freaking out at her on Twitter too.

I believe you're thinking of her Taratata interview: It's possible she wanted to get Priscilla's blessing regardless of who held the rights. It was officially released on iTunes and Amazon and probably a few other platforms on January 4, 2010 and was available for a few months. There were people who bought it at the time who later fans presumably got copies from. I assume this is how the gapless 256kbps digital retail version circulated by LDR.FM mods was obtained. @sexwithme is also correct that a version of the album was downloadable from the 5 Points Records website for awhile after she blew up. (I downloaded it directly from their site myself.) When "Video Games" first blew up there were blog posts such as this one that linked to it.

I hate to even bump this thread and give it any oxygen, but she does not make good arguments. Sorry. Search statuses for her name and look for my comments if you desire further explanation.
