  1. oh my do you have any more pics that demonstrate this at all?? i never even noticed a bump on her nose bridge before. or do you have any idea what to type into google to see some related images?? a lot of people are shocked by her pre-fame to BTD-era surgical transition but tbh with you, i'm more fascinated by the kind of thing you posted above, like her BTD era face compared to her LFL-onwards face.
  2. alexa, play suspicious minds i feel like it's much more likely to be sean, surely
  3. well..... her hair and face look pretty so what's the situation w/ the paparazzi? do we believe lana called them, sean called them or they were there without anyone calling them?? i mean lana is coming back into the public consciousness i guess so maybe paparazzi would wanna capture her with whoever she's dating??
  4. i can imagine this too and i'd be up for it, but i don't think it'll go that way
  5. this was definitely a "yikes" moment what else did elton do tho?? i don't know much about him
  6. i know she said NFR was gonna be red hot chilli peppers influenced and have that kind of vibe and obviously it didn't really pan out that way except for a few songs, but i'd looooove to hear that really come to fruition on WHF i love the idea of songs that can blend the intensity of burning hot, sexy, summertime tracks like Freak and Burning Desire with the psychedelic, lackadaisical vibes of tracks like Venice Bitch and maybe FIILY. a few lil cute folksy guitar songs would be cute too, maybe some desert rock vibes like we had on UV (i'm dreaming of more songs like West Coast ) and maybe even a cover of Californiacation or Under The Bridge a girl can dream
  7. it's crazy to me that when i first heard the album cinnamon girl was my absolute fave on there, now i usually forget it exists lmaooooooo

  9. almost always, yes but on a serious note, i'm only ranking it *within* lana's discography as opposed to music in general, if that makes sense. i think in that regard, it's kind of a solid 6 for her - it's impact on pop culture in general is obviously way way above that

  11. Born To Die - 6/10 Paradise - 8.5/10 Ultraviolence - 9.5/10 (would be a 10 if it wasn't for G&R) Honeymoon - 7/10 Lust For Life - 6.5/10 Norman Fuking Rockwell! - 8/10 not that anyone asked but
  12. for what it's worth, i think differing opinions are really important and this thread (and any kind of NFR related discussion) would be totally dead without them; i understand where you're coming from, agree with many of your points and enjoy reading what you have to say! i'm sure you're not truly bothering anyone. discussion is what we're here for after all at first i thought HTD was kind of drowning in its own production and while i still feel that way, i'm enjoying it a lot more now!
  13. I find the discussion about Lana's lyricism on this album pretty interesting. I'm kinda torn on it??? Some of her writing on NFR! is BRILLIANT - Mariner's Apartment Complex stands out a lot for me lyrically, it's this great balance of rawness/honesty ("I fucked up, I know that, but Jesus, can't a girl just do the best she can?") and metaphors/imagery (all the lost at sea type stuff) that makes it feel so candid and honest but also considered and, for lack of a better term, not lazy. You can tell a lot of care went into writing the song imo, yet it's not too complex (ha no pun intended) so it's simple enough to feel classic. Then of course you have Hope which, although a lot of the fanbase don't like it, is no doubt some of her absolute greatest lyricism yet. Possibly her best ever tbh. The song tears me apart. You can tell that song was carefully constructed and probably went thru multiple drafts, it's unbelievably perfect. How To Disappear, Norman and Bartender are all very gorgeous lyrically too!! But then you get songs like Love Song. Rhyming 'chest', 'party dress' and 'mess'? 'It's the best' and 'passed the test'??? C'mon Lana should've moved on from that by now. It's lazy and probably the first sort of rhyme scheme you'd think of if you were just freestyling a song in the studio. I know Love Song is very beloved by fans and I understand why, but a song with such a delicate and minimal instrumental should probably put a little more thought into its lyrics, right??? California has some genuinely lovely moments (the first pre-chorus stands out to me), but "faster than my fastest cars" and "brighter than the brightest stars" are..... so thoughtless and cringe. The Greatest is one of my favourite Lana songs ever and I think it's really well written mostly, but the way she randomly repeats phases thru the song does make me question why she couldn't just think of more lyrics. The Next Best American Record is another song that could've had a lot more thought put into it to really elevate it, but that wasn't the case. I think there are some unbelievably high highs on NFR!'s lyrics, but strangely the lows aren't horrendously low - they're just lazy and careless.

  18. anybody else looking forward to Outer Worlds?
  19. meeee!! who are the 2....? yea, i wish untucked was more of a thing, but tbh with you i feel like it would kind of be redundant - this set of queens don't seem to be especially shady, and when they are everyone just kinda laughs about it. i don't think there'd be much drama or anything (and i don't predict much drama for the entire season tbh) so a full untucked might be pretty boring
