    btw is there any chance that white dress is now white hot forever?  we know she made white dress as one of the first songs for the album, it is the song that inspired the album and is showing the true vibe of it. she thought about calling the album white hot forever so it's been a while since she made that song too. also WHITE dress = WHITE hot forever
    she most often put title tracks as first songs on the tracklist, that is why white dress is first on the album, not cocc..because its original title is white hot forever, and that was the original album title. idk it makes sense a lot to me.
    @Eclipse also teased "white h-" according to white dress earlier so what is the truth?

    This is exactly how I feel about NFR’s less lyrically nuanced moments. In those moments where she wasn’t being super poetic or “insightful,” she was delivering really on-the-spot & honest emotional expression. 

    I think the chorus of Cinnamon Girl is a great example of this; it’s not particularly complex from a lyrical standpoint, but it verbalizes a lot of unspoken and implicit hesitations, and she manages to deliver the lines in such a way that is both intimate and vulnerable.

    YES this song is SO GOOD, all that airy space in the song coupled with those slow rhythmic drums and dreamy guitars- perfection. This song gets way too much hate, it is top tier Lana for me, all atmosphere and languid tension.

    i don't understand why people hate it so much, maybe because it's just very slow and mellow? that's what i love about it, i know some people have pointed out that the chorus is very repetitive which i understand, but it's not like other songs off of ultraviolence don't have the same repetition (ultraviolence, sad girl, black beauty)

    Purity ring mindset... 
    It's called "extending our hype"
    Hating on something for no good reason is just mood killing.

    I think I appreciate the simplicity of LMLYLAW so much more now that I’ve heard the title track. There really seems to be an emphasis on letting go & just being present (similar to Venice Bitch), and I think this translates to a very organic but simple track.
     
    It’s still probably one of my least favorite singles she’s released, but I really enjoy the general vibe & simplicity of it regardless (if that makes any sense lmao)

    My COTCC mug arrived yesterday and I’ve been enjoying all my coffees and teas in it and it’s making me so excited for the album. Every time I look at it and see Lana’s cute smile, I smile.

    A reminder that Dark But Just A Game is her best song title & has percussion, drums, guitars & synths in it
    It's going to be a career highlight, a masterpiece & the folky long lost sister of The Blackest Day

    New links for the majority of the posts, as the website has been re-done since evilentity's original post.
  22. Aphrodite liked a post in a topic by evilentity in Lizzy in old Lake Placid area newspapers   
    I found a bunch of old Lake Placid News (LPN), Adirondack Daily Express (ADE), Plattsburgh Press-Rebulican (PPR) articles archived as black and white PDF scans that mention Lizzy, some with photos of her:
     
     
     
    Here's a rundown of the rest of the references:
     
    Involvement in Sports
    Skiing. "Lately, the students of St. Agnes School have accomplished a lot out of school. Many SAS students particpated recently in some exciting ski races: NYSEF World Cup race for JV (ages 7-10). Placings are as follows... Elizabeth Grant 20th". January 25, 1995 LPN Sports page box score showing her run time and placing ("8. Elizabeth Grant   44.33") in the Ed Damp Junior V World Cup. March 12, 1996 PPR
    "The New York Ski Educational Foundation (NYSEF) held its annual family race and picnic for participants in the.series last Saturday, at which time the final standings were released... Elizabeth Grant (259)... Completed the top 10." March 23, 1996 ADE
    Skating. "The following scholarships have been awarded by the Skating Club of Lake Placid to the skaters named below... $50 scholarships for ice or lessons... Elizabeth Grant." March 27, 1997 ADE Softball. She played center fielder for her middle school team. "Elizabeth grant [sic] OF-C". April 10, 1998 LPN Involvement in Other Extra-curricular Activities
    Choir. "The Lake Placid High School (LPHS) concert started off with the chorus singing 'Psallite'. They song many traditional Christmas Carols [sic]. The chorus personnel are... Elizabeth Grant". March 7, 2000 LPN "After the Women's Ensemble it was the high school chorus' time to shine... Medley from 'Les Miserables' had many soloists, such as... Elizabeth Grant". June 23, 2000 LPN
    What song do you think she sang?
    Performed in a variety show (as well as Chuck and Charlie). June 23, 2000 LPN Secretary of the high school Key Club. "On Tuesday May 9, the Key Club members welcomed new leadership... Congratulations also go to the new secretary. Elizabeth Grant". June 23, 2000 LPN Staff of the Blue Times Bomber, the school newspaper which appears to have been an insert in the Lake Placid News. January 28, 2000  March 17, 2000 LPN  June 23, 2000 LPN Confirmation. "On Sunday afternoon. May 21, at 4:30 p.m.. Bishop Gerald Barbarito, bishop of Ogdensburg, came to Lake Placid and confirmed more than 50 people from area Roman Catholic churches, including St Agnes... It was a beautiful and solemn ceremony, with the church's altars and pillars decked in red, the bishop in his red chasuble (robe), wearing his miter on his head and holding his staff in hand. On the altar, dozens of red roses arranged in large vases added to the festive atmosphere. The 17 Lake Placid young people, all dressed in white robes, who received the gifts of the Holy Spirit in the sacrament of confirmation included... Elizabeth Grant". May 26, 2000 LPN Honor Roll
     
    There are also many articles that list her on the honor roll:
    Grade 7, High Honors. January 9, 1998 LPN  February 13, 1998 LPN  March 27, 1998 LPN  March 27, 1998 ADE  March 30, 1998 PPR  May 29, 1998 ADE  June 9, 1998 ADE  June 19, 1998 LPN  July 31, 1998 PPR Grade 8, Honors. March 5, 1999 LPN  March 8, 1999 ADE  March 12, 1999 LPN  May 7, 1999 LPN Grade 8, High Honors. June 18, 1999 LPN  July 20, 1999  July 23, 1999 LPN Grade 9, Honors. December 24, 1999 LPN  December 31, 1999 LPN  January 28, 2000 LPN This establishes pretty well that she started 9th grade in the fall of 1999. Unless you skip a grade, kids are 14 or 15 when they begin 9th grade (or at least turn 14 shortly after it begins). If Lizzy was really born in 1986 as she claims, she would have just turned 13 the summer before.   
     
    Family Members
     
    There's also a lot of articles mentioning other members of her family. I didn't spend a ton of time looking at those, but they appear to be mostly about her parents' efforts to organize opposition to a development project (Lake Placid does really remind me of Twin Peaks sometimes) for classic NIMBY reasons, her dad's real estate listings, and Chuck and Charlie's sports exploits (including a huge fish she caught).
     
    However, this article describes in greater detail her dad's furniture company mentioned in that Domain Name Journal profile on him and this article gives more background on her family's ownership of "God Bless America" singer Kate Smith's home-- which Lizzy mentioned in this article and was the inspiration for the original title of AKA-- and their attempts to sell it at a large profit rather than an affordable price for the Kate Smith/God Bless America Foundation who wanted to turn it into a museum.
