  1. NEAL liked a post in a topic by LoreleiLee in The Paradise and the esoteric origin of mankind   
    Lana was born on solstice (21 june) (so she is a solstice babe - and she loves summer so much, which is the time of her life arcadia and fulfillment of her dreams, the blissful paradise state; everything concerning winter in her songs, literally or metaphorically, is related to depression/dark night of the soul, mourning the break up of a relationship, loneliness or blues of the soul in general - except for her mentioning Christmas time and the day "we met in December"). (Ok, here I brought the notion of the opposition inside the same category - winter-summer solstice).
    And that is often what I was astonished about - usually melancholic and introverted people prefer aloofness, stillness and contemplative desolation of the winter, and Lana, of the same temperament, is so attached to bright summer days - maybe to exhilarate too much water (emotions) with the glorious fire chariots of the Sun.

    right now, she's nothing but a complacent little ho that feels as if she's already made her mark on the industry and thus isn't striving to push herself any further. she's better than the rest and she knows it, but now that everyone else is starting to recognize it too, she doesn't have any of that fire from before; nothing to prove and nothing new to currently say (and it shows, visually, in particular) 
     
    she went from piecing mood boards together in order to properly manifest her own self-realizations -- from constructing gorgeously unified visuals to ... this? using fucking scraps from a previous era just because she can? twice! its one thing to set forth with an idea and stick to it mentally or emotionally, but entirely another to just splice random shit together and publish it just because it ~ 'sort of works' ~ ... she's way better than this and so its painfully ironic that the critics no longer have anything negative to say, when the video is honestly trash and deserving of the hate that she would've typically received during the higher points in her career. no intelligence or insight or nuance, just vapid images and a hope for some far-reached analysis of an idea that was clearly never even there to begin with 
     
    you say that she doesn't want to be 'pop' but this is the most 'pop' mentality she's had so far in her career; literally cut and rehashed and devoid of feeling. but she knows that as long as its slow and pretty, and set to something * classical *, no one will be able to say anything negative out of fear of seeming ~uncultured~ ; i'm sure her motivations for this were calculated to ensure plausible deniability rather than any artistic growth 
     
    i see u bitch! hope this message (or something similar) gets to her ~ cuz she need to step it the fuck uP (or start to outsource) 
     
    like honestly, even when she was singing honeymoon last night, she sounded like she was half dead and basically let the crowd sing like 40% of the song. that's pretty much an equivalent metaphor for her visual efforts

    Roofe Wood Grace aka Grace Woodroofe.
     
    Putting my helmet from everybody's possible wrath as I think R.W. Grace is a smoothie of (a less reluctant) Hannah Reid + (a less screeching) Florench + (a whisper of) Dido + (yet-to-be-seen-live skills of an) Imogen Heap + (the ectomorphic sinew of a) Taylor Swift. Peace. Agree to disagree. I mean hey, this YT Description said she sounds like Janis Joplin, so...
     
    Australian singer/songwriter, Grace Woodroofe talks about her style & music career, which began at age 17 when she woke-up to numerous missed calls from Heath Ledger after he found her music online. The darkness she felt following Ledger's death in 2008 can be felt in her debut album 'Always Want', produced by Ben Harper. While she may appear modest in a girly Tina Kalivas dress with Chloe heels, her compelling, husky Janis Joplin like voice suggest otherwise, as Grace says she feels most like a women when 'howling & growling' on stage.
     
    via R.W. Grace's (prob) own YT channel:
     
    R.W. Grace - Shell [Live]


     
    R.W. Grace - Eliteless (Acoustic)


     
    Grace Woodroofe for StyleLikeU
     
     
     
    That said, is this your first artist recc thread @@Television Heaven ?
    And Lanaboards, what will possibly happen if you woke-up to numerous missed calls from a Lizzy Grant after she found your art online?

    Wah, my brain tricked me into thinking that I've commented Serial Killer before, or maybe it was in MermaidMotel?
    Anyhoo, does it need for the OP to be summoned to edit these kind of abandoned posts or can mods edit them?
     
    I'm listening a 4:33 length version, ya know just in case there's other length of the file due to dead air or sth.
    What I believe is, that even in the song it was always Cola. Never quite heard It's a serial killer.
     
    You can see me drinkin' cherry co.. (laaah)
     
    Though it sure can be Coke, the live video confirmed (the alt-lyric, if you will) the Cola line.
     
    And oh how the backlyric amused me. As the song progresses towards the end, the instrumentation got crowdier and my brain is hearing all sorts of convoluted, ridic lines, one after the other. Such as:
     
    01:11 (If summer ne'er had to happen) Sweet serial killer~ (I guess I'll see you never...) do it for the thrill of it all <--what does he do it for, then?
    01:11 (This summer had to happen) <-- A plan? A trip in the summer?
    01:11 (December had to happen) <-- What? Mayan apocalypse? That day we met?
    01:23 (You said, (you'd) never let'it to happen)
    01:23 (He said, ...)
    02:46 (If us ne'er had to happen) Sweet serial killer~ (I guess I'll see another (boi)...) .... <--just plain logic lel
     
    02:57 (He sent an'envelope to heaven) Sweet serial killer~ (I guess I'll see you never...) <--- an envelope to heaven, no comment, maybe to reply a postcard.
     
    But surprise us, Lana...
     
    The moans, the vocalization, the sweeping strings, the low-key menacing strings, the beats... easily made it one of my all time fave ;'))!!

  10. NEAL liked a post in a topic by AngelHeadedHipster in Is Taylor Swift Just a Big Rip Off of Lana Del Rey?   
    The difference between LDR & Granny Swift is that LDRs music is like a full course dinner with each plate having a beautifully crafted meal with carefully chosen ingredients to create an original masterpiece whereas Grannae Swish's music is like gross fast food made with recycled ingredients to cater to the mindless masses.   West Coast : But you've got the music, you've got the music in you, don't you? Shake it off : It's like I got this music in my mind saying, "It's gonna be alright." Lana has a song called 1949. Tswizzle made an album called 1989.   Like you do in “Fucked My Way UP To The Top” on your new album? It’s about a singer who first sneered about my allegedly not authentic style but later she stole and copied it. And now she’s acting like I am the art project and she the true super artist. My God and people actually believe her, she’s successful! I shouldn’t continue ranting, it doesn’t get anywhere.
    But now you have to tell us who you’re talking about.
    Unfortunately I can’t, you know?

    First of all, let me acknowledge and be grateful that this performance is not another Poolside-gate. Fair enough that it's a show, of a tour, so expectedly people will record, but still... was trying not to hype myself too much when people posted the rehearsal snippets.
     
    But it's here, and thank you again, for everyone that record and uploaded the performance, esp. Serial Killer.
    Somehow listening to it give me this nice, eerie, nostalgic atmosphere of that time when we all first get to know each other and was geekily super excited over anything and everything Lana #mustbethestrings
