Someone needs to explain to Moy the Yankovic Rule: The only culture you may stereotypically depict in a music video is the Amish. Because they'll never see it anyway. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lOfZLb33uCg

I suspect this won't be the last meth song we hear from Lana. But where is the YouTube video? What is it suspended from? A magic cloud or Auto-Tuned Loon? I'm very happy with you. You asked a real, substantive question that actually had a chance in hell of being answered. Yes, "Yayo" is like a timeless jazz standard. I can't imagine how she didn't like how it turned out originally. (Aside from her taking a breath in the middle of the word tattoo, it's perfect.) And from what we've heard of the re-recorded version, I can't imagine how she could like how it turned out any better. But I'm withholding judgement until I hear it in full. Great essay. Over double the required length. However, I'm taking points off due to the lack of pictures, the missing YouTube video, and your failure to properly explain what the tire swing is suspended from. A-

FIFY

There's more!

Was that going to be your Lanaween costume idea? Remember students, your Lanaween costumes must be related to Lana or the forum in some way. Class dismissed.

Yes, this is what I'll be posting about once I've finished following up on one last thing. Stay tuned.

I can be your China doll...

That line makes me think of the Radiohead song:

Vote splitting. It'll happen. Count on it.

Or the American Midwest. The song's called "Ride". How can she not at least come to the Motor City? :imbeingsarcasticbitch2:

Careful saying MDM is auto-tuned. Countdown to Monicker dissertation on what is and isn't auto-tuned in 3, 2, 1...

"I’m tired of feeling like I’m fucking crazy. I’m tired of driving till I see stars in my eyes..."

I'd have mentioned it except I didn't know it was underrated I guess. I just figured everyone knew how great that song is.

You stole the exact same two songs I was thinking of!

Yes, an "Interviews" subsection somewhere. Perhaps under "Media"? Then someone can make a pinned thread under it with a table listing all the interviews in chronological order with links to the interviews, and perhaps links to separate threads to discuss each interview. A subsection under "Shows" called "Early Shows" where I can move my table of known Lizzy Grant gigs and start creating separate threads for each show containing all known media and information about it. I'd like to keep this accessible only to moderators at first so I can keep the format of the individual gig threads consistent. Although, if you can find a way to only allow my collaborators Neal and HeadBitch access in addition to moderators that would be appreciated.

Why isn't the bearded man from the "Blue Velvet" video on this list? :imbeingsarcasticbitch2:

Well, since I'm straight, this is pretty obvious: Kill Hundred Dollar Pussy before he tries to rape me through my chastity belt. Have an unconsummated marriage with SitarKitty. And fuck Maru. Emile Haynie, David Kahne, Rick Rubin.

It's far from the best, but "Jump" and "Smarty" are massively underrated.

You'd have to get past one of these first: How's that for BDSM? Auto-Tuned Loon, Ben Mawson, Heavy Hitler.

Thanks!

In the fucking lyrics to the song. :imbeingsarcasticbitch2:

I've seen people talk about Lana's Elvis covers a few places around this forum. Aside from this gig review from her Lizzy Grant days mentioning she performed "Heartbreak Hotel", do we know anything else about any Elvis covers? Did she talk about them in an interview or something?

"Gas Station", "Smartie", "Mermaid Hotel", "Hey Lolita Hey", "What Makes Us Girls", "Little Girls" & "Take Me to Paris" are also registered.
