    Jeff Tweedy (one of the main guys from Uncle Tupelo, the band who just about defined alternative country as a genre) and Bleachers covering Margaret. I never thought I'd see the day, and this is one step towards all the disparate threads of my life becoming one.

    Edit to add - I didn't realise Jeff had mentioned Lana in the past!

    “Of all the big pop stars right now,” he said, “she’s great. Amazing, really. I mean, it’s incredible how huge her records are considering they are almost all ballads! There is this low simmering energy in them that isn’t about tempo or volume, but closest to Leonard Cohen, and yet she’s huge.” He smiled and shook his head at the thought.

    I saw this had blown up earlier this week… not them all suspecting that Lana is trans. :facepalm:

    This is on the level of those old conspiracy videos which showed politicians/stars on terrible quality videos on Youtube, and when they pixelated for a second, claimed that they were briefly being captured turning into lizards.

    More to the point, this is what happens when a person who has only ever seen a woman on film or in magazines tries to go anomaly hunting looking at women's bodies.

    Is it just me who didn't hear much of the Born to Die influence? Maybe towards the end of Blue with the strings but that's mostly it :oprah3:

    Aside from a few song titles, I don't see any connection to Lana at all.

    ETA: I mean musically. Lana is a big force in Billie's life, obviously, but I just can't see any direct influence at all.

    I've only listened once but enjoyed it quite a bit. I felt like a lot of it was looking back to the 90s and even 80s (strong Cardigans vibes on Birds of a Feather and Lunch).

    :eek3: yikes. people that say stupid shit like this are so annoying

     

    It's weird, because they're obviously a fan, but there's still this disconnect where fans don't think of the person they're fans of as actual humans.

    Kintsugi still baffles me to this day. Everything they wrote was right, but was it a « one-off » thing, like they were lucky to get their hands on OB but don’t have a « permanent » access to future releases? :stareney2:

    I think a lot of so-called insiders are some variation of people whose cousin (or mom or boyfriend) is the IT guy for someone in the music industry. They have access to people's emails and leak information from that. Maybe they lose access when they get found out and lose their jobs, or their company stops handling Lana's material or something.

    If Felony Marinara somehow ends up on the album not only will I BE killing myself, I will also be live-streaming it on lanaboards

    when I typed this out, instead of “killing” it somehow autocorrected to milking :deadbanana:

     

    When people say that AI is going to be evil, I'll point them to this auto-correction to show it can also be hilarious.

    She started with birthday shenanigans 

    Honestly, I Iove it. And when it's someone like Byron, who has been so important to her music live for over a decade, it's well worth it.
