    https://youtu.be/g6Lr3wiYNhw?si=Xpr0MtYhYPXY9-DU  Finally got around to uploading Zella and Jesse singing Bleeding Hearts in WV. I was gonna cut out me asking my dad (a king) to hold the camera at the start and end but I never got around so I just uploaded as is please ignore it lol. I put the video as unlisted so you can only view if you have that link but let me know if it doesn’t work. :)

    I interpret it much like the conspiracy theories surrounding Marilyn Monroe's death, suggesting it wasn't suicide but rather CIA involvement. In the song Hope, I see it as a metaphor for the challenges faced by women in the spotlight, where speaking one's mind can lead to trouble with those in positions of power.

    found a quote from lana ive been seriously been looking for since she first did the hope choreo which i think really explains it! Its basically what everyone’s guesses just like a tad more specific. 

     

    https://www.billboard.com/music/pop/lana-del-rey-billboard-cover-story-2019-8527901/

    When discussing the song hope she says:

     

    “It was staggered with references from living in Hollywood and seeing so many things that didn’t look right to me, things that I never thought I’d have permission to talk about, because everyone knew and no one ever said anything. The culture only changed in the last two years as to whether people would believe you. And I’ve been in this business now for 15 years!”

     

    Earlier in the story she mentions women in the industry being considered crazy for not fitting into categories and expectations etc. 

    So I’ve always interpreted the cia segment of hope dance as women in the music industry (it also applies to the common woman) reporting sexual abuse or wanting to and being dismissed, belittled and ignored or even further abused in court like Kesha. The CIA guy would represent anyone in a position of power including law enforcement who helps to normalize and facilitate abuse. It’s about the silencing of women, and how those that speak up or “act out” are deemed crazy or hysteric, even though any “hysteria” they show usually stems from being treated as a crazy liar. Her being dragged off could either indicate being taken to a mental hospital because they’ve made her crazy or are still trying to paint her as such, or more broadly and maybe simultaneously the metaphoric killing of her hope and her spirit. 

    Off topic and re marilyn, a lot of hardcore devoted MM fans (or at least from what I’ve seen)  actually reject the CIA/murder conspiracy so I wonder if Lana does as well but it is clear I think to most people how outside forces like misogynist stigma and mistreatment played into her death so she definitely fits into this story in that sense. 
    I’m already rambling but I could go on and on forever so I’ll cut it off here. :)

    omg where is that at?? i will be at the show 

    I think people usually wait outside where the entertainment parks and leaves- so like a back door, loading dock, gated parking type area. I’m not from the area so I’m not familiar with the venue but on google maps it looks like that’d be like, directly across from the greyhound station. Around 72 Lee st east on street view you can see the area I’m talking about but again this is all guesswork and I really don’t know myself lol.

    I got into Lana late, inbetween lfl and nfr, (although in fairness i was like 10 when btd dropped). I remember listening to Get Free after randomly clicking a youtube video of creep and seeing comments about the lawsuit, thinking get free was better, and then playing Heroin and feeling ….. indescribable. I was like *oh*. So this is how good music can be. I feel like I have a before and after of perspective on music with her. Heroin will always be special to be.

    Otherwise/before her, Halsey really jump started my life as a online music stan. I also listened to David Bowie like religiously, mainly before Lana.
