Full agree.
 
There’s a “ground control to Major Tom” theme suggested in this song, so that it could be or almost be interpreted as being sung by someone from Earth watching the world be destroyed from a distant planet (like Mars) via a ‘live stream.’ Why does the narrator miss LA, NYC, rock n’ roll? Where is she that she misses them and can’t access them? Losing Earth certainly would be the greatest loss of all.
 
Apologies for the double post.

I don't find racist connotations in The Greatest. But, no place to doubt, talking about him in the song explicitly after the feud they had on Instagram (or her comment, better said, there was truly no feud), and being the lyrics on Hope the ones she chose ("shaking my ass was the only thing that's got this black narcissist of my back"), the whole topic is quite conflictive right now, and it's perfectly legit for people to be confused about it. As none of us are, I'm not inside Lana's head to know what she wanted or not to say, and I haven't seen clearly racist issues on her work till now, but she should have know that the critics on this topic would come (and I'm actually glad that people are fighting any potentially racist expression on art, even if that comes to Lana too).

The way the songs starts dying while she lists the catastrophes that happened to the world is just 
A fireball hitting Earth, LA in flames, Kanye losing his brain, our planet becoming lifeless just like Mars 
This is a god-tier if I ever listened to one

I'm not dissapointed, but can understand why you do. I'm sure it will have more sense on the context of the album. Just right before Bartender. It will kill us, the album as a whole. The Greatest may be a momentum, but it's quite simple in structural terms. It's very beautiful, and the lyrics are heartbreaking, as well as her vocal delivery (it fucking breaks me when she sings "I miss the music"). Miss Lana keeps evolving.

I must say I was a bit dissapointed after reading all of the praise in this thread. That being said it might be a grower.

WE ALL INSIST ON THE NOT!

Thank you for that. I would have died at any other reference to a "party" one.

Back to the good old days of this thread, when there was nothing but chances to get dissapointed. Kind of missing the funny frustrated vibe here these times!
