siren

this is gonna sound ignorant but i honestly don't believe she's glamorizing death. she portrays a dark image which is just how she is as an artist, but she's also been through alot and chooses to talk about that in her music as well.

imo she's just expressing herself and what shes gone through (obviously) and its an unfortunate coincidence that her image coincides with that to make it look like shes glamorizing death. so many other artists sing about death and depression but because they don't convey the same image lana does, they wouldn't be glamorizing or romanticizing it. 

Getting hate for spitting in his neighbours face and threatening to kill him, spitting on fans, skipping many concerts/cutting them short for no valid reason, assaulting DJ Woods, vandalising in Rio, egging a neighbour, arrested for a DUI & driving with a suspended license, verbally abusing a flight attendant, making extremely racist remarks amongst a whole other slew of things including just being an annoying and self-entitled brat

 

vs

 

Being hated for having a fake stage name and being a ~manufactured~ popstar who's daddy payed fucked her way to the top

 

yes, Justin is most definitely hated on for no reason 

anyway, in that guardian interview lana said that she wasn't even in contact with her parents at the time of aka, she was surprised when people thought her dad paid for her record deal because she hadnt even seen him for 6 years or so

january, i think? i love the graphics for the video

when was the last time you read a book?

These lyrics are really hard to figure out

i posted something but i was trying to a get spoiler in it but the spoiler wouldnt work so i was like forget it lmao

. 

it makes me so angry that someone who has gone through so much feels this way, its a nightmare to go through but i really hope she comes out of it

nina's voice is stronger but i really like the effects on lana's version. lanas voice is my favorite too so i'd go with hers

their voices are very different but both have very wide ranges, a collab may/may not work but im glad they're friends. i didn't know marina went to a lana show though omg

without you was my favorite

party girl vs kill kill

you mean the venues that she chooses to play in and the amount of shows? idk i think lana really likes the intimacy of smaller crowds but hopefully with her confidence growing doing bigger shoes like glastonbury, coachella etc she may consider more in the future

idk if lana wants to play bigger shoes though.. 

but no i mean that the number is so small, she is pretty popular and i understand she wants a more intimate set but why the lack of shows??

(On a side note, does anyone else think that there is a "conspiracy" going on with Lana in general, all her leaks, the mismanagement of everything she does, the way the tour was handled with scalped tickets... it just seems so weird. But I've never stanned for anyone else like I do for Lana, so maybe this is the norm in the industry and I'm just seeing it now?)

in regards to her leaks, no, because near a hundred (if not more) of her songs were leaked, and this was after she became popular. if her record wanted to cause some sort of attention they wouldn't have done so many.

tickets is different, because when my friend went to go to buy tickets for the nashville show they literally were gone within two hours, so i wouldn't be surprised if her label had anything to do with it. its either them or some company who bought them all and is mass selling them everywhere for high prices

seriously? would this have anything to do with her dad considering he bought her off her first record deal

im guessing 'secondary market' means those who buy tickets first hand and sell them at another price 'secondhand' so naughty really

I believe the articles talking about secondary sellers like StubHub, not the original tickets. They're saying there is a demand for tickets and people are basically paying the overinflated price (marked up by scalpers) to see her.

oh yeah, but like evilentity said, the tour is surprisingly small.  she's become very popularized and the demand to see her is undoubtedly large, why is it so small???

my friend was about to go to the nashville show a few weeks ago and she said tickets were only 35???

i always connect this song to ride, because when she says

"i knew that it takes getting everything you ever wanted, and then loosing it to know what true freedom is"

its almost a reference to loosing things like this that meant alot to her
