  1. Phenomena liked a post in a topic by sunday afternoon in Where Are You Now As A Lana Del Rey Fan? / What Does Being A Lana Del Rey Fan Mean To You?   
    Are you a newer fan, or have you known about her for years now?
     
    Fan since August 2011, I cried a lot when Amy died and Lana arrived afterwards, I took refuge in her. An article from a music site had presented her as a "new artist who is making the buzz this week", I thought that she would be an artist not very interesting but that I will listen to see because I had no more homework to do and then...
    Video games was like love at first sight, I can't explain. I remember sitting in front of my computer and not talking until the end. I knew from this video which relates to memories, this homemade, this voice, this melancholy that Lana was gold, she already had a great mastery. I classified it immediately among the great ones. I did not doubt for a moment, I knew she would follow me all my life.
     
    Has your interested grown, or dwindled?
     
    I'm not going to lie, I'm disappointed with her albums and her projects since Lust for life. But my interest in her does not diminish because she is fascinating. I like to know what she is doing, where she is going, the meaning of her songs, her lyrics, her life. Her life is connected to music and I really like that. If I remain faithful it's because I still hope that she will make an album with BTD, UV, a bit of HM and LFL.
    On the other hand since NFR!, I haven't listened to her projects more than 5 times (except Wildflower Wildfire, Blue Banisters and Text Book which I like), the rest is anecdotal. But I wait. For example these latest shoots are the best in a long time, so it's not lost. Every news of her is cool.
     
    Where are you now in your fan journey? 
     
    I don't really know... I can't say I'm what you call a fan because I never bought anything from her and I never got the chance to see her in concert. The only thing I bought from her is the Born to die album (although I almost bought Paradise and UV on vinyl - damn nice boxes! - I wish I had because they didn't were no longer available a few weeks later). But I think the material is nothing. I have immense respect for her work and her journey, all the creativity she can give. So I'm a fan of the shade, it doesn't prevent having an unlimited admiration for what it can do.

    I think it's a shame that she's getting really popular right now when her music is at its lowest, I mean she'll always make quality music but her first albums up to LFL were on such a level, frankly little artists managed to release records like that. (I haven't listened to Ocean...still I'm late) 
     
    All those people who hated Ultraviolence back then, and Paradise, LFL the whole heyday of her career grrr, it kinda pisses me off to see trends on her on the networks now when the best is over. She wins, that's the main thing, but people didn't understand who she really was. She's not just an aesthetic person. 
     
    Of the 3 albums: NFR!, COTCC, Blue Banisters remains my favorite. Not the best but definitely the most Lana. It's peaceful, a bit old in sound, underrated. I like the way it came out, all in discretion. An intimate side like AKA. 
     
    "Say yes to heaven" is the most soporific, boring demo of all time, of all the demos I didn't want her to use this one but it's done and people are happy with it. 
    It's a beautiful song but there is better. 
    Fine China, Your girl, Cult leader (and others) cannot be trashed 
     
    I find her writing a little overrated, I like this way of revealing himself now, while putting his Lanadelreyesque elements (the colors, the cities, the boyfriends, the cars, the family, the animals) but I think that she has done better in the past, Black beauty, Brooklyn baby, it goes straight to the point and it's beautiful to listen to.
    I would like her to go further and open up a little more to the world while keeping her touch. 
     
    I preferred when she hung out with guys like Barrie, she hung out with better musicians. Jack doesn't inspire her that much. 
     
    The result of all this is that she seems happier, calmer and in tune with herself. She will have other moments in the future I'm sure.

    I was really a fan of the concept at the time of the Poppy/Titanic/Mars trio, I thought it was genius. 
    They were really good each one with the design of the project, the vision, the creativity and the really good music, they were all good, they deserved the success.
    The internet concept was well put together, both mysterious and satirical, all well done, it was exciting to follow 
     
    And then the shit fell 
     
    I hated Poppy and her bitchy attitude, respecting no one like a spoiled child, stalker and disrespectful towards Mars, Titanic and her abusive behavior towards her, poor Mars who had originally designed everything and should have had Poppy's place. 
     
    I like her music less since she started doing metal, I think it doesn't suit her and it sounds wrong, but that's just my opinion.
    It's a shame because she is productive and executive in her work, but she is a problem, I don't appreciate her at all anymore. A hateful person and I hope the industry will turn their back on her, she deserves none of what is happening to her.

    New Young Thug album is quite good, probably his best since On The Rvn from 2018.

    It's so well said. Talking like an old person but dying is not a funny thing, and unless these people were terrorists or Hitler's enforcers, I don't think anyone on this planet rich or poor deserves to leave like this. The internet has made people insensitive, curious in the wrong way, and disrespectful. It's all good to be the winner of the contest of the one who will stand out the most. And it's not about to end with the number of leftovers exploding via these brainless applications.

    It's really horrible... Even if they are all rich, I can't imagine what they are going through or have been through if they are still alive 
    I'm claustrophobic and can't watch or listen to the countdown without getting anxious 
    Really weird that a submarine with such safety issues can be launched 
    That we find them as soon as possible even if the clock is ticking
