Thunder Revenant

Awkward pictures, but hey, it's her private life, I also wouldn't want to run around all-dressed up all the time.

To keep the UV feeling, the Vote has been cancelled

There is a difference between having a private life and cancelling dates for concerts and tv performances your fans, the people who are financing your fun, have paid for and/or are looking foreward to.

I want a more diversive tour, so I added "multiple options" for some songs, because I think it would be interesting if she switched around in her playlist a little more. Ultraviolence (longer intro, maybe with some E-guitar strings, like they did it with the Cola intro) Money Power Glory (I could imagine it as an early-concert-highlight like Body Electric) Shades Of Cool West Coast Gods And Monsters/ Cola (without the "audience-diving")/ Body Electric Summertime Sadness/ Blue Jeans Heart Shaped Box/ National Anthem (without the "audience-diving") Florida Kilos Born To Die/ Pretty When You Cry Old Money/ Ride Brooklyn Baby Black Beauty The Other Woman/ Fucked My Way Up To The Top Video Games Flipside

Florida Kilos and Flipside need to happen live.

Looking foreward to Immortal, but I am a bit disappointed that we get 2 ballads in a row, when the album is supposed to have this rainbow-disco feeling.

I thought these last ones were just soundtrack songs that sampled the song ...

4? The "normal" one, the orchestral cut and the demo. What are you hiding from us?

You mean the one who said he just saw pictures/videos of her and she should really just stick to singing? I mean like, how does this NOT appear to you as an insult? xD Well, I think she was right. Even though she acted weird, I am quite sure she is righ when she says it was his intention to make her look bad in the first place, no matter WHAT she would have said. The problem is, she really gave him a gem of a headline to work with.

You like Lana's "trailer park lolita" look and sound.

When has she ever replied to an innocent constructive criticism? The "impatient" girl was equally unpolite as Lana, people dissing her because of how she looks aren't constructive and polite either and the one parody she raged about was arguably not meant to be a parody, it was just mimicking and ridiculing her with a strange voice. I mean, you can argue about wether she should give a f*ck about stuff like this, but it's not as if the other persons would have approached her with less bitter and resentful words. And about the journalist: I guess both of them are to blame. Lanz acted stupid and over-dramatically. But looking at most of the (american) interwiev-potraits of her, it can be assumed he really wanted to portrait her in a certain way. Just because someone is a journalist and this means he has to be critic, doesn't mean you have to portrait someone the way the "mainstream" wants to see the person. And this is what many journalists do with Lana, so I doubt he is very innocent.

You Can Be The Boss vs National Anthem

Oh Say Can You See vs Meet Me In The Pale Moonlight

I really like the sound of the snippet. I hope it will be a piece that feels .. "complete" again. You know, many songs on UV and the Big Eyes soundtrack songs had the feeling like there was just something missing .. lyrically. Like, not many lyrics or at least in such a repetitive way that it almost left you feel like you only scratched on a subject. Best examples for this are FMWUTTT and Big Eyes. Don't get me wrong, I love Ultraviolence as a record but I really would like to hear a song with a more "classic" construct again, ala BtD. The snippet sounds promising, let's see what we get.

If your life was a TV show, this would be the theme song: Playing Dangerous Will you ever get to heaven?: Little Girls (Put Me In A Movie) Song you dance to at your wedding: Blue Jeans This song contains the name of your first-born: Because Of You Song played at your funeral: Lolita What do you want right now?: For K Part 2 Song that describes your sex life: Pawn Shop Blues … even my Itunes makes fun of my non existent sex life How will you die?: Breaking My Heart Your life motto: Hollywood What do you look for in a girl/guy?: Body Electric Song that plays in your head when you see someone attractive: Go Go Dancer What people think of you: Meet Me In The Pale Moonlight Where will you live?: Driving In Cars With Boys What is your vice?: Hawaiian Tropic What is the most important thing in your life? My Best Days Who do you look up to?: You And Me Surprisingly many song titles actually fit the question … Even though my feelings about some are quite mixed xD

In one of the kindergartens I work, there was a picture of Aurora from the Disney adaption of Sleeping Beauty, and she reminded me of Lanz for some reason (only on this one certain drawing)

Shades Of Cool. I mean, I always liked it, but at the moment i even prefer it to my all-time-favs

Falling apart sounds like the depressive little sister of a Disney-princess-movie-song, I like it!

Dat cover *_*

Hm, I'm not that overwhelmed if I am honest.

I BET it's a part where we only hear a cut-off syllabe of Lana and the rest is Barrie singing.

Yup, I don't like this "xyz is trash"/"her/his baddes song!" etc. At least, if it's without a "In my opinion ..." at the beginning.

YAS!

Well yeah, OUAD is a great movie soundtrack song. Y&B is actually quite a nice song in general, even though i found the way they placed it in The Great Gatsby was underwhelming. Haha, I didn't wanted to prevent anyone from liking ICF in the first place, I just wanted to go out of this "Song A is bad but song B is great! - No song B is great, song A is trash" discussion ;D

Taste is taste, but I don't see anything interesting in the ICF chorus. She streches the phrase out in a tiring way and then throws in a sentence before streching out another phrase into eternity. The whole thing displays less emotion than Lucky Ones. The structure is like the average song construct and the lyrics ... well, a question of taste again. I think the way she sings them makes them sound dull and life-less, "faux-emotion". I agree on BE being messy and definitly a song that may not be everyone's cup of tea. I also expected more from it, but you see, it IS a soundtrack song and not meant to be a major radio single. And in this way, it really succeeds, unlike ICF, which, in my eyes, is just some ballad. And i think IF she has a chance to win with one of the two songs, it's BE, because it really has some kind of suspense curve and a cinematic sound, instead of the monotonous way ICF is just going on and on. So the "stop being delusional" applies to both camps quite well. BE is messy and could have been better easily but ICF is just a quite medicore ballad with nothing special happening. I personally prefer BE, even though I am also quite sure it won't win the award.
