it's like that other selfie from the honeymoon era with the red hair

yall are making this pre-release unbearable.... jesus christ  it was so fun n lighthearted like 2 days ago wtf happened

Wow, happy 4th birthday Lust for Life! This record was released smack-dab in the middle of the absolute best time of my life. Knowing that was 4 years ago just puts into perspective how quickly time has flown by. I remember flying back to London to see Lana during one of the LFL promo shows just 3 days after the album had been released, and it's still one of my favourite Lana shows I've ever seen. It was also the first time I got to meet Lana during a show, which was so special. What a crazy, surreal time.
Although this album isn't the most popular among fans, it's still my second favourite Lana record. It has so many songs that I adore and that have such special meanings to me.
 
I made a whole short film just for fun with a filmmaker friend of mine while I was living in Brooklyn centered around 13 Beaches and that iconic line - "I've been dying for something real." If I ever get brave enough to want a tattoo, I'd want Lana to write out a lyric from that song for me.
 
The album also fosters Cherry, the iconic sexy bop! You can still find me doing the choreo while I'm drunk with my friends.
 
I know it isn't a fan favourite, but Tomorrow Never Came is still my second favourite song from that record. Such a heartfelt beautiful song that still makes me cry.
 
The title track, Love.. still have PTSD from when her manager Ed called me the second I returned home from a night out at the Cheesecake Factory freaking out that Love had leaked on LanaBoards. Still the craziest phone call I've ever received in my life.
 
I remember when Lana posted the video of her recording Change in the studio while I was high out of my mind with some friends. I yelled for them all to shut up and we sat there in silence watching that video over and over on loop until one of my poor friends was like, "Does this ever end?" Such a funny moment, but it was really hypnotising in that moment.
 
Heroin - what an incredible song. One of her best. This song really helped guide me during a pivotal moment in 2017. Again, while it was the best time of my life, there definitely were its ups and downs (which seem so trivial now looking back on it, knowing I faced much worse in the following years.) I moved to Brooklyn NY during this time, which was a decision I wasn't completely sure about, knowing I'd be leaving so many things behind, including a budding acting career I had begun that year as well as a possible relationship that was about to form. That line "I want to leave, I'll probably stay another year. It's hard to leave when absolutely nothing's clear" really made me think introspectively about the decisions I was making and really lead me to follow my heart and not my head.
 
Speaking of that relationship, In My Feelings literally summed up that whole situation PERFECTLY. "Get that cigarette smoke out of my face! You've been wasting my time while you're taking what's mine with the things that you're doing." All my friends who know about that situation also joke about the parallels from that situation to that song. (Dating a chain-smoking gold-digger is no fun.)
 
& of course, Get Free - what a perfect way to end that record. Definitely one of her best album closers, and one of her best pieces of songwriting. "There's no more chasing rainbows and hoping for an end to them. Their arches are illusions, solid at first glance. But then you try to touch them, there's nothing to hold on to. The colours used to lure you in, and put you in a trance." Brilliant.
 
So many other favourites of mine from that record too.. When The World Was at War, God Bless America, Groupie Love, Summer Bummer.. I feel like I have a story tied to every single one of these songs that immediately pop into my head, but I'm just rambling here and I'm getting all emotional reminiscing on the beautiful year for me that was 2017 and this gorgeous album that served as the soundtrack of my life during that time.
 
I spent my morning going through some old concert clips I had taken of Lust for Life songs, and I posted some up on my Instagram story @xmissdaytona if anyone follows me there. I miss everything about that era, but probably just because it came during my best year. God, I'd do anything to go back to 2017.
 
I thank this album so much for all it's done for me - all the memories, all the guidance, all the inspiration. Love you, Lust for Life. Love you, Lana.
 
xx
 

happy birthday lust for life!!! I'm so sorry this fandom shits on you all the time even though you're supposed to be lana's gift for the fans, you're one of my favs, it really was a gift!!
 
underrated, iconic, full of stories, cohesive in its own way, a gem that gave us some of lana's best tracks, beautiful cover, beautiful length, nice collabs, sexy bops, beautiful music videos and aesthetic, rick nowels, dean reid and emile hayne
 
finally I'm crossing the treshold from the ordinary world 
 

Happy birthday to this misunderstood gem!! I've always thought it's lack of cohesion is what makes it narratively cohesive. It's like a journey across worlds, from one sound to another, as Lana transitioned into a new musical realm of her career. I think it's beautifully realized from start to finish.
 
This album also came out ten days after my dad died and I was feeling really weird and not myself at all until I went to the beach and listened to the album for the first time. It truly brought me back to myself, and I'll never forget the sense of peace and relief I felt as the ocean sounds at the end of Get Free closed the album. 
 

God I wish I was with my father 

shut up LDR9 will have this energy

also... she has learned to not gives any dates i respect that

Idk during record store day, The girl at the counter was wearing a LDR shirt. She said she was excited for the album, I said I doubt it’s coming the 4th. BUT the other girl - who’s been there awhile smirked, She SMIRKED! Then said I think it is. The math shows that Record Stores Know about it hush hush…

I guess if there is something I should be happy about, it's the fact that at least the album isn't not called "Blue Banisters" anymore. That name I really dislike. (sorry)

Also it just hit me that if she’s scrapped OG songs to add more recent ones then that means no jack all Mike omg

Hey guys, I'm your new favorite insider and I want to tell you that the album is coming tomorrow and will be called Questions for the Culture, the cover is an uncensored collective nude shot by Nadia Lee featuring Doja, Ariana, Camila, Cardi B, Kehlani, Nicki Minaj, Beyoncé and Lana. The lead single will be called Cherry Pussy Cola Heart and it will be a hip hop bop produced by Rick Nowels and Mike Dean with lots of strings, orchestra and lyrics about fucking, cheating and wearing no clothes. There'll be a high budget vintage softcore porn music video for CPCH coming at the same time. Textbook, WW and BB were scrapped and deleted from all streaming services. The new tracks will have lots of strings and hip hop beats, poetry is no more, and so is Jack Anton Off. The whole album sounds like BTD 2.0. + Serene Queen + High By The Beach + Cherry + In My Feelings. I might leak the tracklist later. See ya!

Random thought on the birthday cake - do her friends call her lana instead of her actual name?  I’ve seen two cakes now that say lana instead of elizabeth/lizzie/whatever lmaooo

When the spotify intern is searching for the date of release of LDR8 on insta and sees all of Lana’s feet pics

We need her textless selfie serve - 
 

Think bigger. It was a Netflix documentary of her career. A hologram performance of her first visual record. Live transmission of Chuck giving birth while Lana sings BBM Baby in the background. The broadway musical she was writing some years ago with Billie playing young Lana. QFTC-Remix of BTD with Doja Cat, Ariana, Camila, Cardi B, Kehlani, Nicki Minaj and Beyoncé. The comeback of her rock band with Alex Turner. Releasing three albums the same day.
 

she’s really going redhead again and the retro glasses??? oh yeah that bitch is BACK nikki lane’s evil country influence is finally OVER 
he loves my heart shaped sunglasses he loves the heart shape my ass is 
 

She looks stunning  I love the glasses, and her hair color is gorgeous, I literally thought these were from 2015 when I saw them on Twitter this morning. She also looks like she's feeling good, which is exactly what she deserves 

This literally sounds identical to ...At The Holiday Party by St Vincent lmao Jack deserves jail

No no it’s true. He’s got a kind of crazed look about him like he’ll rough you up pretty good in the sack but he’ll say “I had a lovely time here’s my number” at the end 

Forgive my vulgarity but Rob is looking like such a DILF lately. I hope he's on the BB cover instead of Lanz 

Just received a weird omen.. I was flipping through the television channels and briefly stumbled across a baseball game, and right when I stopped at the channel the announcer said "Text book! I'm speechless!" 
A little premonition about what fans will be saying tomorrow it seems..

Tonight has been the epitome of a night leading up to a release the next day: drama, chaos and a snippet. All that's missing is a scat attack 

I can’t stop laughing at this 

 

 
I love him so much
