HeyBlueBaby

Why does You & Me kinda give me Dangerous Girl? It's that "give heaven a try, be young be wild ya ya ya" way she sings it that gives me DG chorus or something but slowed down.

I honestly want another Emil and Nowels record.

No bc this album still holds up today even though she released it in 2010 not under a major label and the budgets that come with them. It's honestly one of her most cohesive works to date and is still a good showcase of her music if you were to suggest someone to start there. You see when you have talent, the music simply doesn't age. Gaga can't relate.

Can you post the unused Paradise cover? Not sure I’ve seen it before. The NFR one you’re referring to is the one with the long black hair and gloves right?

This is why I love being a Lana fan! We all just care so much about the music and the creative process. We’re really just geeks for Lana and I love this so much! Thank you BOZ and every other user! Please keep the discussions coming

Father BOZ doing everything he can to keep us fed during this drought. We stan forever

serene queen bottom of the barrel oh I believe that sweeties. It’s a cute bop but not more impressive than most 2010/2011 leaked “pop” (upbeat) songs she’s done

This is really sad to me lmfao. Can we please get a little crumb the most cryptic vague response as to why the album ended up the way it did?

Please something new. I’m so tired. Give YSH, FC and YG a little beauty rest. Save them for a year or two. We need unknown leaks to spice things up ngl

The OP should be updated with bullet points for reading pleasure! Cause this tea is too good to get lost in this thread as it gets longer and longer. LFL being recorded before HM was gaggy and this YTH tea is gathering me….its funny how some things can change in a day, or even in an hour….

So, the only legit YTH version is that “Honeymoon Version”? Or and I thought we had YG demo? So that’s an edit too? It’s all so confusing!

Same. I just know there’s some real tea there! Label interference?

More on this please! And any general LFL tea would be appreciated as well…

capitol is the guardian

Yes that thing

I’m still pissed about the quality of NTMT in lossless….they literally ruined I Blame Myself, I can’t even stream it on AM now, I’ll have to find a download link for the album. Like jfc who approved that?

It’s funny because in The Guardian interview, the interviewer lists controversial artists at that time…Gaga, Miley, etc and Lana said those artists go out of their way to incite criticism, and she does not (besides the odd lyric here and there, which is accurate I would say) QFTC seemed to mirror that portion of the interview to me…..I don’t remember word for word what she even said, but I feel like the sentiments were the same. She got it bad from that because all the artists she listed were black or of color, but she was just listing popular artists in the US at the time….it wasn’t particularly racially motivated. But that’s why I wish she would stop giving in to the naysayers….she has to realize some of her lyrical content DOES invite criticism, no matter if it’s just the weird one liner about drugs or domestic abuse. Shit like that will draw attention. I think she’s understood this since UV and has edited herself a lot. So good for her. I don’t think anyone could’ve anticipated the amount of backlash she got in 2020. Oh that was rough for all of us!

Lana herself said in The Guardian that she felt the media’s attack on her during her debut was personal. That was in 2014. With statements she’s made since then, it’s safe to assume she still feels the same way, and she may be right. But I’m tired of her always feeling the need to retort to the critics….but it gave us UV & BB so I guess I can’t complain too much.

Loved Miss A. You’ll miss me when I’m not around 4AM Before The Fever Delete Forever Idoru So Heavy I Fell… Violence Darkseid An album. I just wish we had more MVs. Shame she’s being mishandled - I didn’t care for POG as a song, lyrics were comical (for me) and the vocals were too, but the MV was great. Shinigami Eyes however was a major bop for me. I hope she gets it together and releases new music soon!

Sorry, I was confused. HYGTG rips off Your Love Is My Drug, not Tik Tok. Listen to YLIMG then HYGTG and you will notice the similarities.

Tik Tok = How You Get The Girl Bad Romance = Judas 4Ever = U + Ur Hand

Wait A&W is American Whore? So the title is American & Whore abbreviated or am I missing something So is that how can I stay sugary sweet snippet from track 3? and which one was the Rockefeller snippet? I don’t remember it

I just find download links and put them in my iTunes Library - since I use Apple Music, this automatically syncs to my phone which makes for more convenient listening. This is probably the best way to store her unreleased content since Spotify doesn’t allow this to my knowledge. I believe it will sync even if you don’t use Apple Music tho - just need iTunes on your computer and your iPhone.

I can hear 13 Beaches on NFR. Cinnamon Girl kinda sounds like it a bit.

I do wonder how that ordeal with Interscope during the UV recording process impacted her relationship with them and how much say they have over what the final product sounds like. It's nice to think she has complete control over the material and what gets released but that isn't the majority in a lot of cases with major labels. Could definitely be argued they had her re-work Lust For Life, given the demo versions.
