Everyone's complaining, but I could sit and watch her listening to music all day long.

The BBC archived almost nothing in the 60s and 70s, from either Radio or TV. Almost everything we have is either from private people at home taping things off the television or radio, or sometimes, when tapes were sent overseas to countries where they actually valued what was on the tapes more than the physical tapes themselves.

Historically, when Lana goes radio silent except for the occasional coffee run, it's good news.

I actually feel a lot of respect for Harvey Mason Jr for admitting that this is an issue, and directly tackling it head on. I don't know whether it will chance anything in the future, but the fact the Grammy Awards are actually making an effort is a good thing, and I hope Lana feels a little bit of vindication.

Just this stupidity

In honour of the birthday of L4L, here is one of the best videos related to the record.

I guess anybody can vote for whoever they want, but just a reminder of how the last go around with Trump started and ended. This time will be a lot worse, because he knows the stakes are even higher. I know there are plenty of accelerationists on the left as well, but they're not the friends of anyone who is a minority, a woman, or basically any category that is not a Christian nationalist.

I've heard him interviewed, and he's really on top of the history side of things - remembering facts, details, specifics. All the things that Lana is completely useless with. And he seems to really remember his time working with Lana very fondly, so there's no reason for him not to go into detail. However, it will have to be someone from here, because in the context of his career, Lana is one of the more niche artists he's worked with, and Tropico is definitely the most obscure part of their collaboration, not helped by the fact that 'Tropico' is also the name of a different, well known and official (movie) release.

To be clear, I'm also obsessed with this project/era, but I'm also quite sure the last person we'll get any concrete info from about it is Lana.

Nobody wants to waste their thirty seconds of chatting with their idol, to only get a non-answer or a confused look.

I know it's pretty much pointless to try to fight disinformation, but this guy is a right wing hoaxer. https://x.com/Shayan86/status/1812351317639119326

Most of my favourites aren't really songs I should live in, for my own wellbeing, but this is certainly a moment I would live in forever.

What is it with the great taste of Lana stans - all my favourites have been named already These two Bergman movies, more than anything else (Lynch is the other great one), build worlds that are not necessarily comfortable, but are so all enveloping and inspiring and incredible that they were the first that came to mind when I read the thread title. I had an amazing 5 hour conversation with my best friend (and fellow Lana stan) after showing him Persona for the first time. Not many films can do that.

Speaking of AI (I assume) this is kind of both funny and cringe.

I've only watched a few of them, but I've been skimming the thumbnails, and there are way too many people assuming that Lana and Quavo are a couple, based on the clip

Moto Boy! I hope this is filmed so we can all enjoy it

Is this the first time she's been paired with Enigma? It works really well actually.

From all available evidence, she doesn't really know how to play, but she can play her own songs that are based on strumming or picking out chords. She also doesn't hold a guitar like a guitar player, but that's not necessarily a criticisim.

I just woke up, and listened about five times to just the audio, then watched the video. I don't know if this has been talked about yet but imo for Lana fans, the video is about 1000x better experience than just the audio. It's been a little while since this has happened.

I think I have a few in the back of my mind but this one came up first Cowboy Junkies - Misguided Angel

Very much this. I can't believe how many people on the left seem to have forgotten the absolute chaos of the Trump years, and that wasn't as bad, because it was something that could be put down to a fluke or people not knowing just how bad he'd be. If he gets in after a failed coup, being a convicted felon, and doubling down on the fascist tendencies, I think America will never recover.

This is giving me the same sinking feeling I had after the first Hilary/Trump debate.
