What Do Each of Lana's Albums Mean to You?
Mafiosa replied to Make me your Dream Life's topic in Lana Thoughts
love this topic sirens: this album makes me feel like a pure white bird flying through gray haze - frantic, not knowing where to land or where to go. it's a journey down a dirt road in the blue april dawn. it reminds me of rainy days and safe feelings of years past. it gives me eerie vibes, but i love the spookiness and bareness of it. listening is clean, honest. nothing to hide. it can be unforgiving, though, and when i listen i'm often forced to go inward and look at myself. i love listening to sirens on foggy mornings, before the earth has come alive. aka: transports me to my own created home in my heart. where the waves crash blue, the nights fade into black velvet, and the lemonade is sweet under the bright sunshine. aka never fails to make me happy or nostalgic. it's her most "american" work for me and it feels really familiar, like i've heard it before through some cosmic pathway. it reminds me of all things kitsch and brings me immense comfort. i listen to it a lot outside on summer evenings. it's just so carefree, makes me sway contently. i actually get really in touch with my femininity with this album, it's nice. born to die: for me, this album represents opulence and absolute glamour. i don't connect it to a particular time in my life, but when i listen to it i can feel the solid gold production in my soul. it's such a loaded album, when i listen i feel like the beats are so heavy hitting and i see such vivid rich imagery, it's like a complete sensory experience. it's the album that can make me feel like a bad bitch gangster queen. although it's definitely a vulnerable album, it makes me feel confident just because of how bold it is. it always makes me excited and puts me in a good, high energy mood. paradise: this album is pristine. it's made of crystal and palm, bathed in the ocean. this one evokes the most connection for me. it reminds of cool fall nights where i would listen to this outside and it would be the happiest part of my days, weeks, months. for some reason, it feels like many many years since i was obsessed paradise. it makes me sad sometimes because i yearn to have those times back. it creates such a lush landscape for me. i was absolutely entranced by the sonic quality of the ep when i first heard it. it's a cinematic lynchian dream that pulls me into another stratosphere where i float on the melodies and strings. uv: wow... this one sparks the most raw emotion for me. brings out something primal almost, my inner wild child. when i listen i experience a slow but sure descent into madness. it reminds me of hot summers, which were confusing but ultimately happy. this album is completely personal to me, i listen and i hear lyrics about me, for me. it's not about relationships, alcohol, etc. it's all me and my anger, grief, anguish, bubbling and spilling over the top in 1 hour 8 minutes. i LOVE listening to uv while swimming, it's so perfect. and i remember listening to it on repeat repeat repeat until all the songs were ingrained in me and spoke something different to me. so yes i love uv for it's unhibitedness and rawness. it's perfect for letting your hair down and getting a bit ugly. hm: honeymoon is sooo dreamy. it makes me super happy because i was on vacation in disney world when it dropped so i had my two favorite things with me: lana and disney . the production has an air-like quality and i find that when i listen i feel like i'm gliding on ice.. it's really nice. hm reminds me of a spring filled with yellow flowers and friendly bees and soft grass. i listen to it while sunbathing a lot! the lyrics on this album are really touching to me & her vocals are stellar. there are so many layers and things to appreciate. this is my go to travel album bc it's easy, beautiful listening. it's an incredible record to lose yourself in. there's no fear or judgment when i listen, just peace and calm. i'll let you know about lfl when she drops -
hmmm i'll try pm'ing you but the link works in @creyk latest status

this reminds me of tv in black & white of all songs

i would agree that there's a certain disconnect between what is seemingly two bodies of work laced together - the happier songs and the more melancholy i think it's good for an album to have variety but that's a very fine like to walk without being all over the place i guess we won't know how the album flows til the 21st but

initially, i was super underwhelmed and even turned off by the singles that she released for l4l... but these snippets just restored my faith in lana and this album i LOVE the sounds she created; it reminds me of honeymoon, but more folksy. i don't know what happened to the girls' group shangri-las sound. i got a little taste of it in the intro to lust for life (song) w/ the doo-wops and the harmony was def cute i'd like to see that continued. i don't see the album as being particularly politically charged thus far, but i haven't heard the whole record obviously. it seems like lana's dreamy take on issues of past generations and her yearning to belong to another time period. reminiscing on a time she didn't experience but wishes she had.
