I was wondering why Ultraviolence sounded different tonight, and realized I had put my headphones on backwards (L-R; R-L). Bow down bitches. I am the king of audio sonic thingies. I bet you I could tell the difference between all 312 mixes.

She could’ve been referencing Madonna’s “She’s Not Me” from her undoubted Magnum Opus Hard Candy

The lore behind Sirens and For K has always made me uneasy. Especially since none of it’s confirmed, and of course could entirely be excellent fictional storytelling.

Which twink intern made this list? I saw her live in 2016 and I was blown away. One of the greatest live vocal performances I've ever heard. Better than some of her studio albums.

Love

the "you can try to resist/try to hide from my kiss" sounds like the slowed down melody of "i'm a blonde bimbo girl/in a fantasy world"

The chorus of "Can't Fight The Moonlight" sounds greatly similar to the verses of "Barbie Girl" to my ear!

Alana looks so much like Kristen Froseth! And Lana looks so happy!!

If I remember right, and I genuinely cannot be bothered to Google it for fact checking purposes rn, it is called "Cop-tales and Cocktails"?

Her inspirations fascinate me. She once said in a commencement address at the Curtis Institute of Music, “Inspiration can come from anywhere, I once saw a man drown in the Hudson.” She never elaborated on this.

TF? I can't tell them apart?

No I'm certainly not accusing you of targeting anyone, but c'mon...there was a reason we "don't really have another place to discuss Sky," and you knew that when creating this thread. Anyways that's just my two cents. It's my belief that this thread was created knowing exactly how it would devolve; but no hate for you in specific--just not surprised that we ended up here (again.)

Just to be clear the "it" you're referring to is the thread not the user LOL!!!

The sole purpose of this thread was to ruffle feathers and create drama. And it worked. How sad, this community is better than to fall for that.

I’ve never seen either one of them tbh lmao rip

I love Lipsters who are good at maths.

I was 12 when I first started listening to BTD, and it's funny that if I had been 10 years older, I would have seen and interpreted the album completely differently. Obviously a 12-14 year old can only relate so much to lines like "you love your candy/and your women" and "come take a walk on the wild side," so in my opinion, a lot of what we are nostalgic for really has more to do with our own interpretations than it does to solely her lyricism.

i'm still lost. how is wanting to be loved externally to find love internally the same as the dick being so good you almost told them you love them?

Also she gave us a lot of tracks during the BTD era, even officially. It could be worse, we could be Lady Gaga fans missing the 8 track era of The Fame Monster lol

Nostalgia is normal--when albums like BTD and UV came out we were all younger, and maybe we miss that part of ourselves. I don't think it's unfair to want something similar. But I do think it's unfair to say Lana is re-hashing her past 3 albums over and over again. I don't see "Did You Know" as a song that could've been on NFR-COTCC-BB. I think her lyricism is obviously very different from when she was in her early 20s, and that's a good thing. She grew up with us, and even though most of us are quite a bit younger than her, we probably still relate to lots of her lyrics post-UV/LFL.

The time between Xmas and NYE is truly purgatory isn’t it. Y’all lost your minds.

I’m just now starting to realize how heart wrenching “when’s it gonna be my turn” is. I hope this album has more songs that punch me in the gut.
