    hmm.
     
    this is one of the songs she wrote solely on her own- it seems to be inspired by her and her groomer's relationship, so it's definitely very personal to her...
    having said that, i definitely feel Finneas' absence- the lyrics aren't very strong. her voice is beautiful as always, but there's very little variation in the melody and little to no vocal dynamics, so it drags on a bit.
     
    idk. hoping for stronger songs on the album

    Just had my most delusional idea yet: What if the unreleased song is Pawn Shop Blues?

    she really does, but she also usually puts out what her favorite song from the album is first. which always tend to be ballads. which really frustrates me when fans bash on her ballads and quiet songs because it's clearly what SHE has always wanted to make. big production or not, her lyrics are untouchable by almost any artist in our generation.

    I am so much more hyped for this album than cocc for some reason. I love cocc to death but her rollouts don't tend to cultivate hype bc she'll tease stuff and then disappear for months. It's just this cycle that makes me feel like I can't/shouldn't get too excited for anything from her bc releases are so unreliable and I never wanna get my hopes up
     
    But something about this has me SO excited?!?! I think because it's so unexpected and such a quick turnaround. Even if it comes out similar to cocc in some ways, the snippet sounds really gorgeous in a very different (almost more regal??) way from cocc.
     
    TL;DR i'm PUMPED

    Damn that vocal performance got tiring

    I mean.. I hope the music is good at least. If I say anymore I'm probably gonna get dragged by this entire thread but I'm genuinely disappointed looking back after all these years of supporting her.

    I feel like she's turning herself into a joke at this point

    Kinda underwhelmed at the moment by the new tracks. Maybe in the full album I will enjoy them better. 
    like they’re not bad, but I never want to replay them after I listened to them.

    silently crying on your own on a lonely hill in fresh snow after a heavy storm, driving at dusk in the middle of winter on a slushy road going 15 below the speed limit the road lit only by lamplights in a tiny town, a summer that is far too hot, leaving the entire town restless and you with nothing to do but troll lame department stores and antique shops by day and get drunk and find trouble by night

    such underrated work by miss jailer

    Omg not y’all writing novels about political theory. Obviously I’m not reading that. But I’m happy for you. Or sorry that happened.

    The funny part is, I had already started working on the theme with the sunset idea & red car before LDR Village launched! I'm a mind reader  xx

    this title of the album really gives me lizzy vibes but the revenge she mentions reminds me of some of the songs on UV that are filled with sarcasm of how she’s seen in the industry (fucked my way up to the top) 
    thay and what she said about qftc about being able to go back and sing about her glamour, her perspective within her relationship, stripping etc.
    anyway im just hoping we somehow tie all of this together into one great album Somehow
    im kinda drunk so my mind isn’t fully there

    She's the admin of the site, she's allowed to rebut and comment back to people when her words are being twisted. I wouldn't expect her to NOT reply after people tried dragging her personally for whatever unresolved shit is going on in their own life. This is the discourse baby. If you're stressed she's sending back long responses, then maybe you need to realize the point you're trying to make is rotten

    The ads are annoying, but not so annoying that I can't click out of them.
    I am willing to pay a small fee to disable them. 
    I think guests should see the ads.
    I would rather our regular members not have to experience the ads, or see them less frequently. 
     
    Webhosting is really expensive and I really sympathise.
     
    People complaining about them . . . you need to go outside for a second and remember how expensive it is to live lol.
     
    Elle is basically paying $100 extra rent a month so we can shit post 24/7.  Could you afford to do that?

    buying a website as big as this one isn’t going to come for free or cheap. Sites like this (that get high traffic and have a large user base) sells for thousands. It’s not unlikely she took out a loan, and she’s already said there’s months she’s had to pay with her own money.
     
    we’re very lucky to have a close knit site like this, and she’s still aiming to keep it free

    this is why I hate you 
     
    but also you make a good point. Before the site transferred to Elle a lot of y’all won’t remember that whenever an announcement happened the site would be down for as much as 3 weeks at a time, EVERY time. Y’all talking about ‘what if an announcement happens and a thread is moving fast and I have to click an X on an ad every 5 pages?’ Bruv compared to 2015 that sounds like HEAVEN

    If we were all reading the room (aka Twitter) we’d be angry every day of our lives.
     
    There has been barely any negative press regarding this death anywhere i have seen, i happen to just read the post on Lana’s insta and all i see is everyone upset about “cousins and colonists!!!”.....and now apparently Twitter is upset and Lana should be more aware....
     
    Outside of twitter literally no one is saying anything. The only other conversation happening is whether Harry and Meagan will attend the funeral.

    It’s been her whole career lol. 10 years later now people wanna get upset even though they were all slut dropping in their bedrooms to Ultraviolence back in the day, like what?

    “Read the room” as if the casual everyday news reader has their finger on the pulse of what woke Twitter thinks about prince Phillip today
     
    The day these freaks stop controlling the narrative around every topic will be the day I am finally happy again  so sick of it
