The line about laying in Versailles made me think of her performing at real, actual Versailles for Kimye's wedding. Maybe she got the idea for the song (initially) after that performance...it would make sense, at a wedding, to be reflecting on how your relationship isn't "official" like that. Just a thought. 

New classics:
 
"I got a kid named Ivory Cricket in the yard..." 
"I moved to Oklahoma but it's just a state of mind..."
 
Lana wanting to write in the middle of a crime scene is the most "old Lana" thing I've heard in ages; gives me hope that edgy/weird/dark Lana is still in there somewhere. 
 
She does sound serious about Crooked Cop, but if they break up, there could be a great album to be written about how she tried doing the whole Norman Rockwell life with a step-kid and beer fests and such...and then it all went wrong and she's in psycho-Lana mode again.    Norman Rockwell Bates    

Favorite outfit of this tour!  Glam and shows off her legs! Wish she had different shoes, but the side part is great.

It depends what it is that you like about Velvet Crowbar, but to me it sounds "classic rock", and the most "classic rock" Lana songs to me are:
 
Flipside
Cruel World
Guns n' Roses
Drive
 
...and UV overall is the album with the most guitar-driven tracks like Velvet.    

I thought it was cute! I want to get the audio to add to my li'l "Lana Christmas and Chill" playlist with Santa Baby, Smarty, Be My Daddy (open like a Christmas present...), and the trailer-park songs mentioning Christmas lights and silver tinsel (Trash, etc) 
 
 
 
My biggest question: is that sparkly ring on Lana's ring finger just a fashion ring or something else?

Just noticed this...guess she'd liked this song for awhile and so decided to do it for BBC Live Lounge, 6 months later. I mean, it was really always her song; way back in 2010 she wrote "break up with your girlfriend / and let me move in" in Midnite Dancer Girlfriend.  

"Writing on my walls in blood and shit,
Woah, my god,
jumping off from the wharves into the docks and ships."
 
It made total sense in my mind...like, it's really hot out, so jump into the water or go boating? 
 
 
Wait, me too?! But I like "gold skin" better.
 
My favorite, though, is that I thought on "Hollywood", instead of "I dance like Joplin" (as in Janis), she was saying "I dance like Chaplin" (as in Charlie), and was picturing this: https://youtu.be/0daS_SDCT_U?t=20
Which, uhhhhh, would be quite a sight.

That isn't the official title...it's an untitled project. It modernizes the book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, but it's not an actual film that's in production yet; the interview says SHE'S writing a film (script?) and songs, but who knows if she'll self-produce or if it'll get picked up by a studio or if nothing ever comes of it, haha. It sounds very much in the research/writing stage.
 
That said, maybe she should see if her friend Guillermo del Toro would like to direct...? 

OMG, this moment and WICKED GAME and DADDY ISSUES, I am dead. Best concert ever. Not even going to bother going, 'cuz the rest of the tour won't be this. Just gonna watch this one over and over.

YOU CAN BE MY FULL-TIME DADDY. Whew.   
 
I see no reason to think Lana is serious about him. Maybe she wants to play out her older guy fantasy, and then she'll move on...maybe after writing "Playing Dangerous Part II". Let's get in the back of your cop car, officer...

I wouldn't be at all surprised if she did "California" but only for the California shows...

 OH MY GOD, I had never ever heard the "hidden" lyrics in the bridge before. My wig is gone. I disliked the loud, aggressive guitar on that bridge anyway, so this is my new official version. 
 
You're hot, hot
Weather in the summer
High, high
Neglectful lover
Hot, hot
Weather in the summer
High, neglectful lover
You're crumbling, sadly
You're sadly, crumbling
 
So the "Heroin" bridge is a bit of a callback to this, too... ("hot, hot, winter in the city, somethin' bout this weather" etc)
