necessary sacrifice

I think lots of people expected songs explicitly referring to being a witch or doing magic (which even Stevie Nicks doesn’t really do). I honestly find the album we got to be very witchy, both in atmosphere and subtly in the lyrics. I actually find the demos kinda less witchy than the album. If there’s a “witchy version” it’s definitely the album we got.

Big Eyes vs Swan Song

Shades of Cool vs Fuck it I Love You

I remember watching Video Games when it was viral but I didn’t care for it lol. I didn’t even think of her again for awhile so idk if that even counts. But people always told me to listen to Lana because of the retro 60s stuff and because people knew I was a huge Nancy Sinatra fan (it’s funny that I was so obsessed with her at that time and I didn’t like Lana). I was too “cool” to check her out lol. I was such a snob about “new music” and “pop music” and gatekept myself from everything. But then around Jan-Feb 2013 I finally decided to check out her videos while doing my yoga and I started with Ride and I was just so hypnotized by her. I ended up downloading Born to Die and Paradise illegally and I loved her. It wasn’t til West Coast came out though that I got obsessed and found AKA and her unreleased stuff and bought all her albums a few times over. Weird how we manage to get so obsessed.

Shades of Cool vs 24

Terrence Loves You vs Shades of Cool

I hope WHF/LDR8 has a similar sound to the LFL demo. It has the soft, warm, sensual vibe I get from the titles “white hot forever” and “let me love you like a woman”.
