Meanwhile there are people that leak her upcoming content contrary to her (very clear) wishes and they don't get half as much criticism as he does Make it make sense Question the CULTURE

All I'm taking from this thread is that everyone is accusing everyone of being everyone and that some people who have previously proclaimed that they are above seeking clout, clearly are not Fascinating reading

This looks like Ed has never seen an iron in his life and Ben looks like his son (that Ed's high school girlfriend had when they were both 15) -

Honestly I'd pick Ben or Ed before Jack Jack definitely has a creepy mannequin positioned at the end of his bed and/or a Toy Story quilt cover- 55 replies

They both seem mad all the time but Ben more so I bet Ben starts throwing pieces of carrot cake whilst yelling, "BOLLOCKS!" at the TV any time Liverpool FC loses a match- 55 replies

The Album of the Decade is Honeymoon and if you disagree, lmk so I can vote for you as Most Problematic and Worst Taste -
Idk how you can "steal" themes that people have been singing about for decades, but okay I mean Lana's themes at that time were old Hollywood glamour and Americana, generally speaking. She undeniably presented them in an original way, but Lorde isn't American and afaik has few (or no?) American themes As I said, it's a matter of opinion, but I don't see the connection I also don't think their voices sound even remotely alike And lastly if Lana is so concerned about the similiarity, it's a weird move to frequently work with the producer of one of Lorde's most acclaimed albums The media loves to pit women against each other; these journalists are no doubt aware of the exchanges between the two and play it up in articles as a result This is my (unpopular) opinion

I feel like this is going around in circles I never said Lana wasn't influential. I said that she and Lorde sound nothing alike. This is obviously a matter of opinion, however
-
Not you citing The Guardian Journalists (especially from The Guardian) must always be right huh Oh wait Also in what universe is Lorde's voice low and husky? Are we talking about the same Lorde?
-
My original comment was that Lorde doesn't sound anything like Lana, that's what you replied to, and that's what I was refuting. You have basically refuted that yourself by acknowledging that Royals is about the opposite of what Lana's music at the time was about. Her voice also sounds nothing like Lana's. So again - my point is that everyone acts like Lana is somehow above being influenced by recent artists, when that simply isn't true. Everyone has influences. Lorde isn't any more or less guilty of that than anyone else. With regard to Alanis, the comparison I made was about the wordy, anecdotal lyrical style. Not about the subject matter of You Oughtta Know. My reference to Garbage is more about how everyone acts like Lana was the first woman ever to sing about depression and other dark themes. She wasn't. Many Garbage songs explore these themes. In turn, many artists before Garbage explored these themes. And your last link is just silly - if anything, that's a Jack thing. He recycles more than Greta Thunberg and everyone knows it. That is all.

No, sorry, imo this is a reach There are thousands of songs about flaunting wealth (and Royals is less about that than it is about being content with just being normal - it just uses the examples of extravagance to contrast). And saying Solar Power is a "tropical NFR" is absurd. The themes are not even remotely similar, sonically or lyrically. Like, specifically where and how? Solar Power (the song) is about ditching technology and responsibilities and being amongst nature and people you love. None of the songs on NFR are about that. I can't think of any obvious similarities between songs like Mood Ring, Big Star, The Path, etc and NFR, either. You can find similarities between anything if you look hard enough People act like Lana came up with everything she did out of thin air and that everyone else copied her but the truth is, ALL artists are inspired by those who came before (I just disagree with your examples, though). I can hear elements of many 90s artists in Lana's music. Lately she's really leaning into Alanis Morissette's wordy introspective lyricism (and she actually followed Alanis about 2 years ago). Go read the lyrics to You Oughtta Know and Hands Clean as examples. You can almost imagine Lana singing those (I'm not saying Lana copied Alanis, but she's not the first person to write lyrics like she does with similar themes). Can also hear elements of Jewel, Garbage, and others - these were all artists Lana would've grown up with. The Red Hot Chili Peppers have been criticised for writing about California too much and they've been around since the 80s - is Lana copying them because almost all of her songs mention California? No. Love Lana but she draws inspiration from other artists like anyone else.

Idk that it's any better to fly there, hire a car, drive to the billboard, take a pic and post it on IG I'm not judging her at all because I think it's hilarious and who knows? Maybe it helps her deal with it in some strange way
