And the original perfume video

My bad I know about the little petty feuds but I was thinking that I’d missed some big fight Lana vs Azealia Banks style. Although I don’t think Marina would have the balls to go off like Lana did though
-
Just asking because I wanna know if I’m missing drama or not
-
Is she a bitchy person? I mean she can be tone deaf and up her own ass sometimes but we’re all guilty of that to some degree (especially people living in LA 💀). I wouldn’t say that she bitches more than the average person. Is there some story that I don’t know or is this another one of those “treat a celeb like a god and if they don’t live up to that expectation all the time then crucify them” kinda things? Genuinely curious
-
She looks HOT af with those heels and her little swim suit. She’s hyping me up. I wonder what she means by a tease of what’s to come. I can’t wait 😩💕
-
Ben's melody is the best one she's ever written (apart from the ending)
-
Performance wise, she peaked in 2012/13. Not every performance was golden but the ones that were good were godly. The voice, her vocal styling, the outfits, the atmosphere, the musical arrangements, etc... were perfection. She'll never top the performances of that era
-
Funny how she said she doesn’t think it’s fair to comment on Britney’s state of mind then she called her erratic and paranoid in the book 🙃 I don’t think it’s paranoia when people ARE actually out to get you It’s a good thing that she’s such a bad actress and a shit person that everyone I’ve seen doesn’t believe a word that comes out of her mouth. Britney may not even feel the need to say anything because people are dragging her so hard. Little Jamie Lynn trying to cash in on global superstar and pop legend Britney Spears again

I dont think ADIAML sounds inauthentic because she's not keeping all the women she befriends in her life and empowering them. I could be wrong but I think that the album sounds kinda inauthentic because this direction didn't come to her organically. She mentioned that she pushed herself to go in a crazier direction after L+F because of the fans. Maybe after the serious lack of success of that album, she felt pressured to go back to that wilder sound for some success. In my opinion, an artist's work is usually at its best when the sounds and themes come naturally, not by actively trying to do this or that. Because of that, I feel like ADIAML is lacking a lot of depth compared to other albums in her discography (I can't speak on L+F because I've only listen to it once 💀). With songwriters (especially Marina), you can really tell when they’re in their feels about a topic and when they’ve just gone “what should I write about? Maybe this thing. What should I say?”. For example, if you were to listen to happy, you can just tell that the song meant a lot to her and came straight from her heart. There’s a lot of depth and emotion there. Compare that to happy loner and it just seems shallow even though I’m sure that it is still a personal truth for Marina. It’s obviously harder to be imaginative when you’ve plucked an idea out of thin air as opposed to finding inspiration and running with it. I do think this album is a massive step up from L+F and I do enjoy a lot of songs from it. There's just so much untapped potential there

I really like the melody of Happy Loner but I wish it built more as the song progressed. For me, it doesnt really go anywhere. I think it needs some grander elements to it, like numb-esque but a more modern and gentle twist to it. Some more strings and choral elements to bring out the sadness
-
No?? I hear the higher vocals in the background of the official version
-
She should've kept the high vocals as the main melody in the chorus of Pink Convertible. The demo vocals with the official instrumental sounds so ethereal. Hopefully someone will filter it and bring the higher vocals to the forefront

your first Lana Del Rey song came on shuffle in 2023

The summertime sadness remix That's a bad omen -
The crazy thing is that she didn’t even know that we’d hear that testimony (?) until right before she did it. It was definitely more impactful to actually hear her voice than just read the quote from a court manuscript. I’m so glad things turned out that way
-
I actually think it was her testimony about her IUD and stuff that really pushed it into the public eye. After the documentary, I think most people were more angry at how Justin and the media treated her than the conservatorship itself
-
It’s the first day of the rest of her life and I couldn’t be happier for her. Her resilience and courage is so inspiring. I’m excited to see what she’s going to do next even if it’s just retiring

Beautiful, Swan Song and 24

Justin Bieber (for obvious reasons) and Eminem because I think he’s a weirdo and an asshole
-
I actually agree with Fantano's review of Blue Banisters
-
1) Honeymoon 2) Ultraviolence/BTD 3) AKA/Paradise 4) Lust For Life 5) Blue Banisters 6) COCC/NFR

I said her most cohesive - not that it was 100% cohesive at all times in every way. For the record, 24 and HBTB do fit with the album. 24 carries on the theme of time and it has a bold, warm sound that matches other songs such as Salvatore. HBTB has trap elements like Art Deco and it carries on the theme of issues relating to fame and relationships. Plus we all know that Interscope told Lana to make a more radio-friendly track and HBTB is what she came up with. Are UV and Sirens really your favourite albums if you can’t twerk to them?
-
HM is her most cohesive album aesthetically, sonically, structurally, thematically, etc…
-
I don’t think she’ll ever meet the standard of BTD, UV and HM again

I know this is jumping the gun but I pray to God that once Britney is free, she’ll help Amanda Bynes in some way. Imagine telling everyone that your father touched himself in front of you and tried to have sex with you when you were a kid and then a judge grants him the title of conservator. Imagine someone stealing your phone, writing embarrassing tweets to make you look crazy and then putting you under a psychiatric hold and not telling you when it’ll end. They take her phone away whenever she tries to tell people about the conservatorship and they drug her. I’m sure there’s heaps more of abuse going on. The similarities between the cases are INSANE. It’s scary to me that everyone is fighting Britney’s corner (as they should) but most people think Amanda deserves the abuse or they just don’t care. A lot of the same people are involved in both conservatorships e.g. Sam Lutfi and even Lou is sticking her nose in. That’s everyone’s first clue that something corrupt is going on
