Lana Del Rey: officially too hardcore for Marilyn Manson

THIS WHOLE TOPIC MAKES ME SO ANGRY
 
STOP WITH THE FAKE OUTRAGE!!
 
If something is bad then it should never be discussed and it's not okay to portray it on film? K, good thing they don't make films about slavery, racism or domestic abuse etc 

Well, as an artist you don't have to justify anything. It is what it is and it speaks for itself, even when it tells you nothing at all. 

Haha, well I agree with you on the part that BE is very soundtrack-ish, the lyrics of the second verse are stupid and the production/construct of the song is a bit messy. But I think it's a great song, however it would need a bit ... more of whatever. It's the same with FMWUTT, both are great songs but just when you get into some kind of mood, the song is already ending.
 
I Can Fly .. no, I don't like it the more I listen to it. The lyrics are meh and the way she sings them reserves them a seat for "the most boring lyrics" next to Lucky Ones and Cruel World. The chorus however is the worst part for me. This "IIIIIIIIII can FLYHYHYHYYYYYYY" is so .. exhausting and, how leaked would call it, "faux-emotion". It kind of reminds me of Angels Forever, Forever Angels, just without any passion/beauty in it. I prefer Guns And Roses to it anytime.

Omfg. You people are acting like she actually got raped. It is a VIDEO that she obviously wanted to be a part of. We don't know the context of this video and probably never will. Ugh, this site is too much sometimes.

Ban. This is honestly offensive! 

I've always heard 'See you in the hall like hello, hello' instead of 'It's you in the hall like hello, hello'

Oh evil, I feel like no one reads your posts... 

Can I get you some more straw for your straw man? Maybe you could make an entire straw family. Have you put enough words in my mouth? Let me swallow a second so you can shove more down my throat. Sorry, I missed the part in my post where I condoned actual violence against women in between the three separate times I denounced him as misogynistic.
 
Yes, of course part of Iggy and Eminem's success is because like Elvis before them they sold black music to a wider (whiter) audience. But it's also because they're actually really talented. And I don't get the argument about lyrical quality. Sure, he's got his share of songs with poor lyrics, but a lot of his stuff has absolutely brilliant wordplay. And sure, he sometimes forces his rhymes too much, but that's what enables a lot of the wordplay. Also, for what it's worth, it's possible to both be capable of brilliant artistry and expressing something really awful. It's even possible to display brilliant artistry while expressing something really awful. Monicker made this point really well a while back.
 
 
I don't know if you're serious or not, but it seems rather a stretch to me to interpret all of Lana's lyrical references to domestic violence in a BDSM boudoir context.
 
 
Lol. You guys are so literal sometimes. Literally. Even while there's this kind of grotesque vicariousness going on, it's not approval, it's still a dig at Ray Rice. And the Ravens. Nuance, people.
 
As I said before:

He's always said shit like this just to get a reaction and all of y'all took the bait. You're just giving him the attention (and views/listens) that he wants.
 
 
I think this is the most interesting question about this whole kerfuffle.

Stop relying on stuff that isn't music to enjoy music

Can we have a seperate place for lyric discussions that aren't actually lyrics? It is kind of a clusterfuck in this forum lately. 

This is from Neil Krug's interview about his collab with Lana. 
 
 
so i guess it kind of works for the video too 

@@TIARNZUS bc he is cute 
 
 

Ladies and gentlemen of the Lanaboards: My name is TIARNZUS. I stand before you to proclaim tonight: Lanaboards is the land where dreams can come true for all of us.
As I stand before the Lanaboards people and think of the honour this great forum has bestowed upon me, I recall the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who made Lanaboards stronger by making Lanaboards more free.
He said: "Occasionally in life there are moments which cannot be completely explained by words. Their meaning can only be articulated by the inaudible language of the heart."
Tonight is such a moment for me.
My heart is filled with pride.
My fellow citizens, I proudly accept your nomination for Augusts Member of the Month.

Thank you!
