Swan Song

Whenever I think of Honeymoon (album), I try to convince myself that 'no news is good news'. The hype I originally had is fading away at a steady pace, though.
 

...wyd. The only songs that sound kind of the same are pretty when you cry and sad girl IMO..

I wouldn't say "every single person" knew who Lana was. She was surrounded by people with cameras, of course people are going to stare. It doesn't mean they all know who she is.

I just finished my masterpost and you can find it here

Okay the production on "Sippy Cup" is so cool ugh I'm loving it

I don't quite get how everybody claims that with UV she finally managed to find her own artistical signature and freedom to express her real self and the BTD is supposedly a  dirty sell-out. Like, desert and psychedelic rock and more raw sound is more authentical than hip-hop and upbeat, poppy, cheerful music. Even I, who am deep into alternative, indie and underground, will deny that and maybe too bravely conclude that BTD was also her true self, only different facet, maybe because she was, as some member accentuated on the theme about Honeymoon, happier then, at least she seemed to be. (Btw. I love both albums equally.)
 
And if UV was her holy grail of authenticity and she got critical acclaim for it, how come she was so dispirited at that time, not willing to promote it, and seemingly depressed and ill? Maybe it is the dark and moody chambers of the soul that derived that gem piece in the first place (obviously), but I'm playing with the thought that in BTD era she was still excited about ascending , she was in a state of sweet anticipation of success but when she somehow reached the top with approval of UV, she realized that the top is a lonely place, as they say for all kingdoms and thrones.
 
But on the other side, it is inherent to almost every artist to reveal him/herself to the audience and be loved, worshipped, adored or respected, to receive feedback and to share their most profound, hidden and troubling thoughts, feelings and wounds with the universe.
 
I mean, artists are all to some degree exhibitionists and even the most timid yearn for attention, but  she shuts herself so firmly in her shell, like unreachable pearl, or some deity, almost Buddha that escaped to the mountain. That is why she is so contradictory, controversial and enigmatic, and why I'm so ardently ambivalent towards her, despite the amount of affection I nourish for her precious art. Maybe it's Kurt Cobain's curse (not literally) – he was disgusted by the fact Nirvana headed on feverishly towards mainstream. He commited suicide, and Lana isolates herself and freezes. I know I'm exaggerating; I should just let her alone with her creative juices flow freely and ferment in her hermetically sealed castle of mind. I hope this is just standstill before new storm.
 
Edit - I just realized I talk gibberish - she progresses the opposite way than Nirvana did, but still...Maybe with introverts it is about paralyzing fear when others expect too much of you - all the stars, meteors and milky ways.

She doesn't need to do anything lel

OK.

Can we just reflect on how the concept of this album is fucking awesome?

Every single title is cohesive, and it all really is tied together with the album title. 

I fucking love creative excellence.
 

Um am I the only one who thinks the mother actually poisoned her? I mean Melanie is dressed like an angel so her death seemed pretty obvious to me... the mother drugged her with chloroform I don't see the point in drugging her again after that
 
Anyway, I really like the song and I think the video is great. The cinematography is on point and the lighting is really interesting. Her music videos are evolving and I like that, compare this one to the Dollhouse video and you'll see what I mean haha

The owner of the china.palace account did make a post saying they weren't Lana, and that they didn't deny when people asked if it was her to avoid disappointing fans. I don't think they're really trying to pretend anymore lmao but yeah. I'm enjoying the drama

......Messsssss......

More accessible, an anomaly? Compared to what? Paradise, UV, AKA? Her unreleased stuff? Her May Jailer era? And more importantly, in what way is it "more accessible" than your point of reference?
 
Not trying to be confrontational, just don't really understand this point of view.

Hi,
 
I posted up about 2 weeks ago asking questions about the location Lana shot her Born To Die video.
 
I went there last week and got some photos for you all.
 
I made a new thread as I've been now and I have new photos to upload.
 
Hope you enjoy.
 
(By the way I have the Yayo wallpaper in better quality if anyone wants me to upload it for you)
 
 
 

WAIT GUYS ITS OUT
 

Anyone notice that iTunes changed Play Date and Teddy Bear's 'Clean' tags to 'Explicit'?
