I can't wait for political activist Lana Del Rey to pay hommage to the Bowling Green Massacre victims on LDR5 -

This is a REACH but I keep noticing how she had her nails short even though the tour is over. Is Lizzy Grant back on the guitar ? Is Lana Del Licks coming for Joanne's rock n' roll queen crown ? Is she ready to scalp Pitchfork's smelly critics ? -

Is this Angus Stone's new band ? It's cool but a bit overdone, I'd like Lana to keep developing her own psyche sound. Back in 2014 I thought it was really smart of her to use FMWUTTP vocals as background textures in UV, and this is something she did a lot on HM (HBTB vocals in Swan Song, insects noises in GKIT etc.). So I hope she keeps doing this, it's kind of a trademark thing know and it's really hypnotic. -
beautiful [byoo-tuh-fuh l] adjective 1. having beauty; possessing qualities that give great pleasure or satisfaction to see, hear, think about, etc.; delighting the senses or mind: a beautiful dress; a beautiful speech. She's smiling because she knows the FBI is coming to scalp us all

I have a feeling she will deliver quality pop music with this record, something fresh, accessible and interesting. That's what YAIL seems to be all about -
I think in a way it's a "good thing" for Lana since most leakers actually hack/get stuff from her publishers' online databases, and Lana's team can't force them to upgrade their security, and they still have to put her songs there because that's how it's done, legal procedures etc. So really, it's their only option on that matter. But this has been going on for so long, there must be some unreliable person around her, and FBI or not this isn't going to fix this core issue. Why bother locking up 3 people when we all know it will start all over again in 6 months ?

I guess we usually think of this statement as a nostalgia-Reagan kind of thing, but really I think she refers to what America "used to be" as when it really believed in the idea of democracy, in every sense of the word ; and when democracy was more than a theorical idea. People like Emerson, Whitman, the Beats, Thoreau, etc... Even the weird hippy loner (Eden Ahbez) who composed the music she uses for her interludes now. They all believed in the potential within every human being and in the sense of community and the meaningfulness of art. This is obviously an important theme for her, as well as America, the land, as an inspiration. Just like the Transcendentalists, who she obviously studied in her philosophy class in Fordham & her personal readings (Whitman etc.). That is to me, what she meant by "the country America used to be". And therefore it's why she can "help us cope", in that she represents values that are at odds with the ones Trump promotes

Elle literally making Lanaboards great again

1st of all, if that's possible, we maybe need to restrict new accounts' access to the news section / ability to post ? Old members are actually more of a threat when it comes to leaks, but this will cut down the flow of posts begging for more. We just need smart restrictions, locking the thread completly won't help. Yesterday's 50 pages meltdown was not even about leaks yet we had +100 users online (most of them probably expecting some snippet to slip out, i do agree). Therefore I think most members appreciate being on Lanaboards for more than links to snippets, which maybe we have forgotten in the midst of all this drama. U should give us that Lanaboards 2.0 update so that it would distract us
