    One Direction

    I really can't get into their music but I still somehow manage to ship Larry
  2. Because I love casual Lana (when she's not wearing that aztec jacket)
  3. Yeah, her makeup looks really weird, I think it's because they didn't blend a darker colour into her crease? I photoshopped one in to show the difference (the right pic): And ugh, how I wish she'd stop wearing brownish nudes on her lips... It's way too Ally McBeal
  4. Yeah, I was desperately grasping at straws on that one
  5. I think she intended that since she's said that Paradise would be like an afterword. Here's how I looked at it: Ride - Born to Die "Don't break me down... etc" and "Don't make me sad...." She's singing about roads and journeys in both. American - Off to the races, Blue jeans, Video Games Both describe a casual but slightly disfunctional (drugs etc) relationship. In VG she sings "Swinging in the backyard", in A "play house", evoking images of youth/childhood. Cola - Diet Mtn Dew I always thought this was really obvious because they're both named after sodas? I think she's comparing Barry to her ex. In a demo version of Diet Mtn Dew she sings "beat me and tell me you're mine..." and in Cola she sings "Don't treat me rough...". Again she talks about taking a ride. Body Electric - Summertime Sadness In both of them she sings about feeling electric, pale moonlight and ~droppin it like it's hot~ Blue Velvet - ? It might have something to do with Blue Jeans, they have similar titles and in BV she sings "and I still can see the velvet through my tears", in BJ "baby can you see through the tears". I always saw BV as a filler since it's a cover so I haven't paid attention to it. Gods & Monsters - Carmen I think she's giving a different perspective of her life before she went sober. Yayo - ? I have no idea.. Bel Air - Dark Paradise I think she sees L.A. as a paradise and she's just describing what she sees when she "closes her eyes"
  6. Born to Die: National Anthem AKA: Pawn Shop Blues Sirens: For K (Part 1). Provocative: I don't really like Sirens at all. For K has only been played 7 times. Unreleased: American Dream / Damn You (I don't know what it's actually called) I'm surprised I've played this so many times (103...) 'cause it's not that good but I think it's because I really like the way she sings "I pray your life is sweet, you fucker, damn you" and you cannot skip to your favorite part of a song. You have to earn it. Demos: Without You (Demo), National Anthem (Demo 1) and Carmen (Demo) were all close ties Collabs: -
  7. I just realised... when she sings Bill, maybe she means bill as in money? Hundred Dollar Bill, for example. It's a bit of a stretch but it might be worth sharing. Edit: Read through this comment again and I think I've worded myself in a weird way. I mean that for example in Trash Magic when she sings "Yes Bill, I will", Bill is not a person, it's money, so she's really saying "Yes, for money, I will".
  8. always @1:40 THE WAY SHE SINGS "fall" like I cannot even begin to describe that. I don't really like Body Electric but all of the emotions in "I pretend I'm not hurt, go about the world like I'm having fun" part here (2:35) Born to die "this is the last time" at around 3:00. Idc what people say she's the best live
  9. I have a theory that she writes every song (or at least some of them) about two different people. That would explain why nothing seems to fit together. Also, in Without You she sings "But burned into my brain all these stolen images / Can you picture it? Babe, that life we could've lived" So I believe she's always singing about the life she wished she could've had with K but through the relationships she's having with other men. Another theory I have is that she dated K before she went to boarding school, when she was around the age of 12. That would make the Lolita-references more logical (Lolita was about 12, or so I recall). Then when she was 14/15 he went to prison, she was sent to boarding school and at around 17/18 he was sentenced to death (For K Part 1). Then at 18 he died and she went to rehab, maybe after having a relapse and trying to kill herself? In BTD she sings: "Feet don't fail me now / Take me to the finish line / Oh my heart it breaks every step that I take / But I'm hoping at the gates, they'll tell me that you're mine" And in Dark Paradise "But I wish I was dead / Dead like you" To me it sounds like she wants to join him in heaven which she also seem to sing about in Burning Desire: "Drive fast, flash, everyone knows it, I'm trying to get to you baby, I'm feeling scared and you know it" Hopefully all of that made some sense because I'm still confused Also, I believe the guy that Radio is about might be the same guy she talks about in this interview. She says she's staying with her ex in Williamsburg, so... does anyone know who that might be? It might not be the same guy Radio is about because the interview was in February, so again, the time line doesn't match up. I'm also pretty sure Ride is about Barrie.
