Do we know whether the songs from the album are registered on Shazam?

girl we're doomed not even CIA has the software needed to decipher this

AITYGMYCSHUIBAC is track 11 I feel it

lol this makes me think of the article: https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2014/07/who-lana-del-rey-slept-with i don't think she ever did prostitution, she slept with guys just for fun and got nothing out out of it -- and for her poetry/lyrics, i think most of the sexual stuff she's singing about is just a metaphor for some other things. she's not literally a go go dancer or whatever other fantasy world she was in with her songs

thank you for understanding

Claiming AITYGMYCSHUIBAC I literally feel it in my bones that its gonna slap so hard

Found it! It’s “The Unreality of Time” by J.M.E. McTaggart

it's so amazing that we're all reading the same thing, yet everyone as a different perspective and interpretation, it's so interesting to read!! I think the final line In my end is my beginning could be interpreted in so many ways. I saw @honeymoonwhore mention Christianity (a prominent topic in Eliot's works) so one of obvious meaning is how in Christianity the true life begins after death, i.e. going to Heaven, and that our Earth life is just a preparation for the real beginning of the life.

yes, this is exactly what I wanted to say in my post too! honestly the idea of dreaming being pointless sound horrific because i think everyone loves to dream and imagine a better future for themselves, but that's how we ultimately set ourselves up for a disappointment: Go, go, go, said the bird: human kind / Cannot bear very much reality. We cannot bear reality because of these dreams we set up for ourselves

I discovered Burnt Norton through Lana (ofc) and it's been my favorite poem since I first read it few years ago. It even inspired me to read some essay about time (can't remember the title), but it essentially supported what Eliot says here; which is that there is no present, past or the future because time is not linear. Idk how to talk about this to not get into being too deep or philosophical, but I think what he's trying to say that there is no use of worrying about what was or what will be because all the time is already "written", everything already happened, the "future" is just the part of the time that hasn't played out yet. In other words, we cannot change the past or the future. And this is why the closing line says "Ridiculous the waste sad time, stretching before and after." And that's basically all what people do most of the time; if you pay attention, you spend most of your day thinking about past or future - instead of "living in the moment." This is why I find this poem very modern and relevant today, it makes me think of all these notions of spirituality and the idea of healing through learning how to let go of past and future, and transcending the time, i.e. living in the moment. Also I think there's an interesting connection to Lana's Honeymoon. On the album, Religion comes after Burn Norton, and I think BN can be viewed as intro to religion. Everything is fine now Let's sleeping dog's lay All our minds made up now All our beds are made No one's out of time, no Chips fall where they may Leave it all behind, let the ocean wash away I see this being connected to Burnt Norton, especially the "all our minds made up now, all our beds are made" - meaning that your destiny is already determined; inability to change the past or the future. I think that in the second verse, she accepted that there's no use of "stretching before and after" when she says No need to survive now / All we do is play, because she no longer worries about the past or the future, i.e. she no longer worries about survival, she lets go and just lives. And I think this is very interesting because it's key to one's happiness. The only question is I don't really see the chorus of Religion being connected to BN lol I always though it was just a song about her worshiping someone she loves like God.

like I said, we can't let it flop this time! also lemme tag the people that I see were on board for the previous book club: @DCooper, @marinasrep, @prettywhenimhigh, @Pretty On The Indide, @NikoGo, @DeadSeaOfMercury, @takemetothegasstation, @niandra lades, @Fingertips, @Surf Noir, @The Siren, @SalvaWHORE, @Alison by Slowdive and @American Whore (sorry i stole the book club from you). I'm tagging u guys just so you can see this. Spread the word if anyone is missing. So feel free to join the discussion right away if you still want to be a part of the book club! ❤️

hello my dearest bookworms welcome to the revival of the LanaBoards book club say it with me: ✨🙏this time we will make it 🙏✨ as you might know, the previous book club has failed and was cancelled without any notice, so I am your new book club hostess Do you want to expand your horizons, tap into your imagination and learn about life? Are you worried about the rising trend in worldwide illiteracy and ask yourself "what can I do to fix it"? Are you tired of being a circuit queen instead of a highly sophisticated and well-educated homosexual? Do you feel dumb for not getting any of Lana's literary references? Is "reading more" on your New Year resolution every year, but you never get around to do it? YOU'VE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE. As you might remember, the first book picked for the previous book club was Lolita, but that never happened. Now, if this succeeds, we will keep picking the works together in the future, BUT since this is the first reading round, we can get straight to work. That way we can all see how this will function, how much time we will need, and what will the discussion look like. That's why the first work that I picked is very short so we can test things out. And then later we can move onto bigger stuff like novels etc. Our first work is... BURNT NORTON BY T.S. ELIOT "Burnt Norton" is the first out of four poems from T.S. Eliot's 1943 Four Quartets. Considered one of the 20th century's major poets, T.S. Eliot is a central figure in English-language Modernist poetry. He had the honor of his "Burnt Norton" being featured on Lana's album Honeymoon as an interlude. Lana only sampled the intro to the poem, but it is actually a bit longer. The entirety of Four Quartets is available in PDF here: http://www.lettersjournal.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/fourquartets.pdf (please don't ban me for piracy, miss Eliot is dead he's not getting any coin anyways) WHAT DO WE READ? We only read the Burnt Norton for now (fell free to read to read other poems too if you want I'm not gonna stop you); and as you can see, it's only 5 pages. WHEN DO WE READ IT? Literally right now. Open the PDF and read it, it takes like 3 minutes. WHAT IS YOUR CONTRIBUTION? As soon as you're done reading the poem, share your opinions, thoughts, views, questions, ideas, analysis, respond to other people's posts, anything! In order to help you out, I came up with some questions that can get the discussion going: BURNT NORTON DISCUSSION QUESTIONS Why do you think Lana sampled Burnt Norton on Honeymoon? Is the poem's theme, message or lyrical style in anyway related to Honeymoon or Lana's art, lyricism and poetry in general? Did you like the poem; why or why not? Do you like the language and the writing style? Do you find the poem to be complex? In order to simplify it, what is the poem's central topic or message to your understanding? The poem dates back to 1943, being almost 80 years old. Why could it be relevant to the modern day-reader? Did you see any ideas that are applicable to the modern world? Is there any part that touched you, any part that is your favorite? You can copy the quote and discuss it. Take a look at the poem's opening lines (Time present and time past / Are both perhaps present in time future, / And time future contained in time past), and the closing lines are (Ridiculous the waste sad time / Stretching before and after). How do you interpret this? Is there any connection? Do you think the opening and the ending summarize the poem's central idea? What images came to your mind as you were reading the poem? Of course you don't have to answer those, we're not in school💀, but you can if you don't have any ideas what to write about; like I sad - share with us anything you want! Let's have fun! ❤️ also if this thread flops, my account was hacked
