This is great. Good work @suicideblonde

I liked your post then I saw Tame Impala. I was like

Off the top of my head: Radiohead, Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Beyoncé, Fiona Apple. I mean their discographies as a whole, there are sometimes a few songs I might like, but that's usually it.

Bottom line: trying to get rid of certain labels, certain people have stuck on you isn't an easy task—in fact any attempt at trying to get rid of those just reinforce these perceptions. We live in a society... Again, before anyone comes for me, I don't agree with everything (if anything) she said both today and yesterday, but cancel/call out culture is messed up.

Remember the days where instead of lashing out at critics via Twitter rants, she'd just write songs like 'Brooklyn Baby' and actually get the last laugh and not come across as a (mostly) tone deaf fool.

Well, not that I agree with every single one her tweets, or her points, but what she is saying makes much more sense now than her incoherent mumbling yesterday. But she needs a PR person.

Lana post-Honeymoon is tired, uninspired and artistically lazy—dare I say lazy in general. She needs a long break and so do I.

When Madonna, of all people, says that you are in dire need of attention, you know you're fucked.

She is quite literally insane. I have no words. That was the single most embarassing moment as a fan of hers. Good god.

and HMV not shipping worldwide

The way I'm never going to fully enjoy a Lana album from start to finish.

DO YOU WANNA FEEL HOW IT FEELS?

Congrats Legends @Clampigirl and @takeitdoen!

Native speaker, yes.

I honestly agree with that. I have been told that my dislike for 'NFR' is almost comical. But it's not that I dislike the album per say, I do find some songs to be good/great, like I appreciate songs separately (same thing with 'Lust for Life'), it's just that her album as a whole don't appeal to me as much anymore. I don't find them to be uniquely Lana, they miss that spark of oomph. Her work used to be characterized by her unique vision and lyricism, but on her past two albums it felt somewhat absent or sometimes almost satirical or that she was a parody of herself? It's definitely a combination of me getting annoyed at some of her lyricism and finding the production to either be atrocious and/or almost completely forgettable. I honestly hope that 'Chemtrails' marks her return to a more interesting soundscape and less "whatever"/random writing perspective.

The way you translated my post in French–alors que t'aurais simplement pu me le demander.

I was in my room getting ready for work, then I received the notification that Lana had just posted the snippet on insta then I quickly logged into LanaBoards to witness the fire. Where were you when you first heard about Lana?

Holy fucking shit. This is nuts.

NOW that is an unpopular opinion

Ma'am this is the unpopular opinion thread.

'NFR' just feels like the least Lana Del Rey-esque of her albums, like it could've been done by almost every indie girlies. Like @Enchanted Mansion said, it feels impersonal. There are good parts in there, some not so good. It feels somewhat watered down at times and there is literally nothing cinematic about the album, which is sad, but it's an artistic choice she had every right to make. But it's just not the boundary pushing, uniquely Lana album I have come to expect at every release. It's cute, light and background music at a coffee shop-ish to me. I so hope 'Chemtrails' doesn't suffer the same sucky fate. That's my unpopular opinion on it. That is all.

Agreed 100%. It's not to say that I hate 'NFR' per say, it's just not my favourite album of hers, there are still song in there I love. I just didn't "love" the album from the getgo and don't really find myself revisiting it often. ??‍♂️ Lyrically 'HIAB' feels mod-podged.
