    It's been two hours and still nothing. I've gotten instant confirmations every other order I've made. There's a pending charge on my credit card from Lana though so Idk what happened, guess it was placed. Maybe I typed my email wrong in the rush to place an order haha.

    Just placed the same order from the UK store just to be safe (plus it's cheaper anyway with the code), I can always cancel one of the orders once I find out what happened

    whew, thank god for the UK

    Hi, could someone send me the lyrics for Sweet?

    I have this:

    Spoiler

     

    stars in my eyes, hiking up griffith
    thinking about ??? (it sounds like maybe she's saying the name of a movie? because of the next line? idk)
    it’s set in the midwest
    wish I could tell you now
    i wrote you a note, but i didn’t send it
    ‘cause that’s the best method
    the women here taught me about

    what you don’t really understand
    i’ve got magic in my hand (head??)
    stars in my eyes

    i’m a different kind of woman
    if you want some basic bitch
    go to the beverly center and find her

    i’m sweet
    barefeet
    if you wanna go where nobody goes
    that’s where you’ll find me
    in the sweet north country
    if i’m not there come to my house on genesee

    what you doing with your life
    do you think about it
    do you contemplate where we came from
    lately we’ve been making out a ??
    talking about the stuff that’s at the very heart of things
    do you want children? do you wanna marry me?
    do you wanna run marathons in long beach by the sea?
    i’ve got things to do like nothing at all
    i wanna do them with you
    do you wanna do them with me?

    if you want someone then just call me up
    and remember where i’ll be
    sweet in barefeet
    you can find me where no one will be
    in the woods somewhere
    in the ?? of the heart of the valley
    in the sweet north country
    if i’m not there come to my house on genesee

     

    there's a few parts where no ones sure what she's saying or other people hear different things than i do

    I can't figure this out for the life of me :trisha: I literally only hear "thinking about who was said and what didn't" which makes 0 sense :toofloppy:

     

    Spoiler

    that's exactly what I hear but yeah that makes no sense! it must be the name of a book or movie or something and I just don't get the reference.... She's hiking up Griffith and thinking about a movie or something that's set in the midwest.... but WHAT's the title Lana!

    i listened to the grants and fingertips, do yall recommend i listen to the others?

     

    I only listened to the ones that are untagged. I'm not going to ruin my first listen of a song with some ugly tag. i remember back in the HM era how for like a month I still expected all these background noises and people talking to appear in songs because I had listened to those UO recordings one too many times

     I love how revealing and heartbreaking the lyrics of Fingertips are. I wonder if Lana is in a better place mentally now if she feels like she can be putting such personal lyrics out to the public.... But with that said I can't imagine Fingertips is a song I'll be listening to much. It's more like an improv stream of consciousness poem than a song. It's okay as a song. It's definitely my least favorite of the five I've heard so far.

    I love The Grants and Sweet, though. The line about remembering her grandmother's last smile really gets to me for some reason. This is going to be a top tier Lana album for me.

    what that lyric in The Grants means, I’m gonna take mind of you with me? I can’t get my head around it 

     

    Spoiler

    She's saying take mine of you, not mind. She's saying when you die, you only take your memories with you to the afterlife. So, I'm going to take [my memories of you] [with me to heaven]

    Is the lyric in Sweet “come to my house on Genesee”? Genesee is a place name in upstate New York (and also in Michigan, which is where I know the word from) would make sense with her being from upstate NY. Seems like it’s referring to a street by that name? 

    Spoiler

    There's a street in Los Angeles called Genesee Ave, that's probably what she's talking about, she mentions it in Sportcruiser too

    For the nth time can someone share the lyrics I can't go through so many pages :lange:

    so you say there’s a chance for us
    should I do a dance for once
    you’re a family man, but...
    but...

    do you think about heaven?
    do you think about me?
    my pastor told me
    when you leave all you take
    is your memory
    and i’m gonna take mine of you with me
    i’m gonna take mine of you with me

    so many mountains too high to climb
    so many rivers so low that I’m
    doing the hard stuff, I’m doing my time
    I’m doing it for us, for our family line

    do you think about heaven?
    do you think about me?
    my pastor told me
    when you leave all you take is your memories
    and i want to take mine of you with me
    i’m gonna take mine of you with me

    like rocky mountain high
    the way john denver sings
    my sister’s first-born child
    i’m gonna take that too with me
    my grandmother’s last smile
    i’m gonna take that too with me
    it’s a beautiful life
    remember that too, for me

    So this entire album (well, almost all of it) seems to me to be about Barrie; she still loves him, wants to be with him, wants to dance and party with him, wants him to "come back to America". Thinking about all the songs with this meaning sort of changes my interpretation of HIADT... the hope that she has and why it's so dangerous, is because after going through all her emotions through 1-13, she still ends it all hoping that they'll end up together, and part of her can't move on because of it, which is why that hope is dangerous, and why the album closes with that song and not Venice Beach (which everyone agrees would at least sonically be the better closer).
