I love Lana but what kind of crack was she smoking when she wrote this song

I didn't like the paradise one at first but now it's my favourite because of the level of detail. When you flip it and overlay it over the original it matches up quite well.


Lana fits perfectly inside the beach and the sun's reflection on the water becomes the hair covering the right of her neck. There's the water and the trees referencing the original ofc and the shape of the forest at the bottom becomes the neckline of her swimsuit.

EPIC SLAY
 
The concept
The deconstruction of pop culture glamour
The obvious shade at the music industry
The diamonds in blood
Lana's looks
The fashion!
The throwback to National Anthem and Born to Die glamour
The noir look and feel
The uber hotness of John Baptiste
How the teaser was already conceptual, when you think about it
The fashion!!! 
 
One of her top 10 if not 5 videos ever and her best since Don't Call Me Angel. Also, the best video of 2023 hands down.
 
I am dead ☠️

Me when happy hour starts 

 
Me six hours later when my friends chant “one more drink!!”

 
Relatable queen wbk!!!

No like literally this was so hi-brow, I’m not shocked people don’t get it. She’s weaponizing that Metaphysics degree to the max 

People keep saying they don’t want the behind the scenes footage but that’s literally the video. Like that’s the storyline/point of the video. I’m personally glad that she did something different for this. 

But this is the director’s cut. The bts and talking scenes are intentional to strengthen the theme and message they wish to convey

This video was showstopping. One of her best. If it didn’t have the BTS footage it would’ve just been glamour shots with no clear story. Very gorgeous glamour shots, but it wouldn’t have the same impact.

omg I just watched and bitch I am gaggedddd  that was so good I loved the faux BTS style music video and how its meant to portray the disconnect between the legendary old Hollywood actress' lives and how we remember them through their films like wowwwww  the shot of her getting out of the car with the leaves falling omfgggg  her in the mafia bar with blonde BTD hair BITCHHHHHHHHHHHH  the shot of her in the alley pulling a Roxxxy Andrews wig under a wig reveal  the shot paralleling the paparazzi at the car crash to her getting her plaque on the Hollywood walk of fame  that was crazyyyyyy 

It's been 84 years 

she canceled it didn't she

I've been watching the hotsummerlilac chronicles of r/popheadcirclejerk with bated breath and to find out that it was a lanaboards member all along is such a full circle moment 

I'm talking about the one and only u/hotsummerlilac
Here's some highlights:
 
Oh my god it's you

I wanna found someone that makes me feel like “let the light in”

so everyone was there 
 
they were standing and laughing 
 
and im on the side with my tears streaming down 
 
 

GRANDFATHER PLEASE STAND ON THE SHOULDERS OF MY FUCKING FATHER WHILE HES DEEP SEA FISHING FOR ALL THE THINGS HES WISHING !!!!!!!!!!! 

Omg we’re being fed so well this era

only would the Sky Ferreira thread bring out transphobia among veteran users of this site  

We’re just assuming 

First ben with the “campaign” and now anna? Stop playing with us, is it a short film with 5 mv’s? 

 

I wouldn't call it incompetence, it's open hostility at anyone who dares stray from gender norms
I genuinely do not understand how they keep getting away with it

I've not seen anyone here talking about it so I thought I'd post. A really heartbreaking story. She was so young.
 
I have no sympathy for the two children who murdered her, they were responsible for their actions and deserve to be put away for a long, long time, but it's horrible to see 3 young people's lives completely fucked thanks to the unending hate and vitriol spread by the UK media and scum like Joanne Rowling.
 
It's been disgusting seeing the media coverage of the story as well. The UK media, both left and right wing, has a heavy transphobic bias and rumor has it, several newspapers interviewed her dentist so they could find her deadname to use in their articles - only changing it after backlash. They made a conscious effort to deadname a 16 year old murder victim. One publication edited their article from 'teenage girl' to 'transgender teen' and edited out all reference to her being a girl when they found out she was trans. On the flip side, some newspapers didn't even mention she was trans, or at least emphasised that there was no clear motive, because god forbid they be held accountable for the results of their hate campaigns. They should really be celebrating to see their efforts finally come to fruition. Not to mention that if a trans person was a suspect for murder, you'd never hear the end of it... but when a trans person is a victim of a violent crime it's suddenly not an important fact. It makes me so fucking furious and what's worse is that it isn't even being treated as a hate crime by the police, which it clearly is. As a trans person living in the UK I'm honestly terrified.

Absolutely Ed Sheeran

No, it’s not. I wish people stopped discrediting the last 3 tracks as “bonus tracks”. Thematically they all make sense in the concept of the album of getting in and out of the tunnel. Taco Truck in particular is the epitome of that - Lana is repurposing the very song she always said it’s meant to listen to to vibe and drive to and putting at the end of an album where she distilled immense amounts of trauma; it makes perfect sense as the closer.
