necessary sacrifice

I still think she doesn't get enough credit for her songwriting. Like, over the last 3 years we've had some amazing albums and multiple career highs. And she seems to only be getting better with Blue Banisters and Watercolor Eyes!
 
If you look at the amount of music we've gotten in just over 2 years, and the quality overall. There's nobody else doing it like her and she doesn't seem to be stopping anytime soon...
 
I wouldn't be surprised if we get more new music throughout this year and personally I can't wait.
 
I've put a list of the songs I'm talking about above, below. And wow, that's only half her discography.
 
 

every single song on bb was the original rcs idc if that makes no sense  trust me, lana told me in a dream and its all totally legit info bc she confirmed it in the same dream 

also i think it was after these pictures were taken but i think turbulent indigo (?) got released on vinyl for the first time

i just heard both sides now play in a movie and it reminded me of how much i want to get into her work more in depth
i'm pretty familiar with her earlier work (blue, ladies of the canyon, court & spark) but i haven't really delved into her later stuff so @scarlettohara do you recommend anything specifically? besides hejira cause that's essential listening for anyone getting into joni 

so who's pressing a bunch of bootlegs of the paradise one for all the broke girlies here? 

tbh paradise was the only good one anyway bc it did have so many parallels with the actual cover  but these are mostly for rich people who don't have enough stupid things to waste their money on so it really doesn't matter  kinda glad she's not too enthusiastic about this scam

if there is another version of the song, an extended version, that would be a very nice addition to lana's next album 

This is probably nit-picky coming from me, but the fact that they used an image from a video for Paradise as a reference for a re-imagined Born to Die cover is.. And I don’t know, I just think the commentary of that one in general is a little off…

To be honest, if somebody tried to capture my very personal, autobiographical art in a way that I felt didn’t do it justice, I’d say something like that too   Diplomatic queen!

She was definitely shading the fuck out of those covers.
 
But I feel like she’s teasing Rock Candy Sweet with the emojis…

not her posting during the Lipsters AND she hates the covers or something 

Her caption is honestly sending, "Interesting picks." 

anyone notice the candy emoji? RCS/DNC tease or just referencing WCE? or just an emoji? lol

There's a strange theory floating around in my head. WCE is actually RCS and was intended as title track for LDR8. But Interscope had other things in mind, they entered into a strategic partnership with the makers of Euphoria and stole the song from the album. Lana had no choice but to rename her album and postpone the release, because now a song was missing and possibly the concept was no longer right. This could explain the entire chaos around the release of Blue Banisters.
