    Wild at Heart is anything but vanilla if you've seen the film. Here's hoping it's an influence on the song.

    It's so wild how much impact this album has had on so many people. It hasn't aged a day for me tbh. I don't consider this the best Lana album, or even my fav, but it's the one I find myself listening to a Lot. It has so much replay value for me. It's like comfort music. Whenever I rank my fav Lana albums I got no clue where to put Born to Die, it's just special, it has this energy that can't be recreated imo.

    The fact that I just remembered even after chemtrails, we have both the cover album AND behind the iron gates to look forward to

    I can hear parts of it where I go, yeah that's def Lana, and then it goes to another tone and gets me second guessing. it's real soft sounding so regardless, hope that's released soon sounds so calming.

    really really sad... please take care of yourselves mentally and emotionally today/tonight wherever you are. Try not to get trapped in endless twitter scrolling and reading news articles, you don’t need overexposure to something so upsetting. For some of you it might be most beneficial to take some time offline and reflect on what SOPHIE, her music, and her artistry meant to you. For me, I’m reflecting on how impactful Product was on me and my friends when it came out and how things have changed and I have grown. Continue to be good and kind to one another

    I think this song is easily the most beautiful thing she's ever done. Lyrically it's just so vivid and yet hazy, like a half-forgotten Polaroid. And the production is so simple, and yet so powerful. Not to mention the trip-hop influences. Just....wow. Songs like this are why I fell for Lana in the first place.

    I was listening to the fabulous Rich Whores recording of Yayo today, and it set me thinking about this song -- I think this is THE definitive Lana song.
     
    It ought to speak to its incredible significance that it's been the ONLY consistent returner throughout nearly the entirety of Lana's career -- it was still new and shaky at the Union Pool show in June '07, and it's since reappeared time and time again, in demos, two studio albums, and live performances ranging from the Lizzy Grant club shows to the stadiums of LA to the Moon.
     
    It's got all the signature Lana lyrical hallmarks: the color blue, bad boys, dependence, trailer parks, escape, hope, drugs, daddies, and a scoop of retro Americana. And, all along, it has changed shape to reflect Lana's current obsessions and styles: it's been an acoustic folk ballad, a heavy metal head-banger, a jazzy torch song, and a spooky, otherworldly laptop demo. It could fit on the kaleidoscopic debut album and the doomy pomp of Paradise just as well as it could slide into the confessional-surf sound of NFR!. 
     
    In short, it's everything Lana, with none of the era-specific quirks that restrict or date her other songs -- an absolutely gorgeous anomaly in her catalogue. It's sexy, it's sad, it's wild, it's cinematic, it's timeless. 
     
    I'm in awe of Yayo.
