Thunder Revenant

Hm .. good concert. However, compared to the Paris performance this lacks passion and it kind of seems like she's sulky or something. If she really broke up with Barrie, that's not really a suprise and understandable. Still, she sings beautiful, I just whished some backgroundvocals were less dominant (especially during Blue Jeans) and they had live-strings, would make Body Electric even more special (even the sulky live version with the dominant backing vocals has more passion than the studio version ...). And what's up with the screeen? During the paradise tour, the clips really enhanced the atmosphere alot. Now there are some grids and a low quality version of the WC video .. hm.

Is This Happiness and Flipside seem to be about this topic ... ITH is kind of the story about two writing artists, who break up cause they don't get along anymore. Also, there are a lot of FS has this "maybe we'll try it later again" topic, which fits some of her statements about the "currently not together". For the rest of the songs, I don't really think they are about the break-up- they may mention one, but I don't think it's about the ending relationship with Barrie. I don't think EVERYTHING she does is completely autobiographic, in the end there could be things/feelings from her past as well as fictional stories she wants to tell. Black Beauty in general could be about Barrie, but since it was written when they were still together, I don't think it's about a break up - reason.

I was on a Gossip concert once and it was a really comfortable one cause the band was so funny and friendly, mainly because they acted natural. They are used to be on stage and seem to feel comfortable. Lana is , compared to them, a newbie and more nervous. Still she doesn't pretend anything in order to appear natural in a way she isn't. She is a little bit shy but still a really friendly person towards her fans. I'm not the biggest fan of the first-row-exclusive-things, but it's something she likes to do and ... well would be hard for her to geth through the whole audience, if you consider all those fans who seem to forget that there is something like a personal distance, even if you admire a singer and even if she acts nicely. Lana seems a little bit awkward sometimes, but that's something really relatable and not anything I would blame her for.

I would not consider this songs as bad ones, if I'm in the right modd, I like to listen to them, but they are my least favourites from the album and the ones I most likely skip. 16. Cruel World (way overrated in my opinion it's the same thing over and over again, could also have been 4 minutes long without much loss) 15. Guns And Roses (good lyrics, but boring beat and chorus) 14. Old Money --------------------------------------------- These are songs I like, but compared to the rest of the albums they are more "behind". 13. Sad Girl (great verse, prechorus and bridge, but the chorus ... meh) 12.The Other Woman 11. Is This Happiness 10. Flipside 09. F*cked My Way up To The Top (if it was a few minutes longer and featured more lyrics, it would definitly be a lot more ahead) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Good songs which I heavily associate with the album and when I hear them, I really just feel good. 08 Black Beauty 07 Ultraviolence 06 Shades Of Cool 05 Florida Kilos ------------------------------ My favs 04 West Coast (grower, if the high notes and breathing sounds in the backgroundvocals during the chrous would still be more dominant, as they were in the Rob Orton Mix, it would be place 3 or 2) 03 Money Power Glory 02 Brooklyn Baby 01 Pretty When You Cry

This directors cut strenghtens the "Mark kills Lana and is haunted by her ghost" interpretation heavily in my eyes ...

Well, one of the latest interwievs hat this picture of her sitting in the car with a yellow dress ... you know, the scene from the first BJ video. And another one also had a picture from 2012, even if it wasn't used. And this two pictures really lookes nothing like UV 8you know, super-strawberry-blonde-hair and Trailer park Baby/ Vinatge Beauty Queen attire) .But even though this picture is an old one it kind of fits her look (slightly nrighter haircolour) and the mood of the album right now, so it#s not that bad.

Maybe a Joke. Maybe it will get scrapped. or maybe there will be an EP like it was with Paradise. The last case would be the greatest one tho ^^

Money Power Glory. Sounds radio friendly, nice beats, cool lyrics, a good chorus and bridge ... I guess the intro part would be cut and maybe(!) the bitch would be left out Pretty When You Cry could also work.out And Cruel World ... maybe this happens in the future, the song wouldn't feel incomplete if some parts would be cut out since lots of the lyrics are just repetitions with slightly changed lyrics. however, in my eyes the song is overrated and i don't know if it would be the biggest radio-success. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Brooklyn Baby is too long, and I don't wanna see it being cut into pieces. The only option I see for this song would be a completely rerecorded version, like it was with West Coast in Germany. Black Beauty, Flipside and Florida Kilos would have been good ones too, but they are bonus songs so I don't expect them to be singles. F*CKED MY WAY UP TO THE TOP ... well, it sounds radio friendly but 1. the lyrics may be too controversial and I somehow always feel like this track lacks something .. a little bit more lyrics or something like this.

Why aren't there more votes for Afraid?!? i mean, it's such a boring song, lyrically and sonically ^^ The same with Prom Song, it sounds demo-ish and I consider it as a really boring and one of her less creative songs. And the songs which have variety, like "She's not me" or "St. Tropez", which may not be her best ones but at least not "the same style all over again" have so many votes?!? And then, the most important question ... WHERE IS HEAVY HITTER?!?!?!?!?!

So it's already aviable for purchase?!?

Yeah they did

that's all that I am

No I was obviously joking xD Still, the "you call me your mama" line would appear completely different by then

imagine the plottwist ....

I wouln not judge it in any way, but I would just not expect it and .. well, life's not just about having a partner in the end

From what she said it seems more like it could possibly be a "pause" during their relationship. Maybe they'll break up finally, maybe they will be together again. But I don't think she's the "byehi" type.

Lana says she is currently not together with Barrie. And everyone in the forum freaks out because of every man that gets involved with her. Don't you think that she wouldn't just take the next man after breaking up with her longtime boyfriend? Btw what she said about the break-up somehow fit the lyrics of "Is This Happiness" and "Flipside" ...

Mermaid Motel vs Jump

Apart from this it's ridiculous for her to say something like this when she herself critisized lana and co for being "to involved in the world of the rich ones" and, because of this "not relevant for young listeners" and so on .... Yeah, being a snotty Grammy winner is so much better and so down to earth. Lorde really is a lot more athentic than all the other stars out there

I don't really like Cruel World. It's not a bad song but i think it's too long as it has super-repetitive lyrics.

TY for uploading This really sounds awesome, I whish they'd streamed it as a video..

I would never say she's not authentic or an art project, but even if we all love Lana as the sensitive person she is, we should not underestimate her. She sells an image too, indeed. And i think she is someone who act very thoughtful towards the media in order to make the appearance she wants too. That said, I guess she really hasn#t said this line in the way it's presented, because this "thoughtful" dealing with the media will make her upset if her words are twisted in a way she did not intended them to be.

The outfit reminds me of the one she wore during this shooting

Dafuq? Just because someone doesn't like the new sound it does not make them a inferior fan or anything I like the UV sound as well as I like the BtD and Paradise sound, but I can understand it if not everyone likes style-changes. Just becuase you are a fan, you don't have to like everything an artist releases. I'm a huge Mando Diao fan, but i don't like their most recent album, 'cause I'm not into the 80s style. So what? I still like the band. And if some people prefer Trip-Hop-Monroe-Lana and don't like the "Narcotic-Swing"-style, it's ok too. And Guns And Roses, or has this leaked too?
