reflecting

i feel like lana would be too lazy to make a concept album and if she did she’d mention it
this is a great analysis though 

okay so my immediate thoughts after my first listen: i feel like this album is so personal in a way and she kind of let loose with her lyricism, it feels very much like a stream of consciousness at times? which i like, it does give it an experimental edge. live for the production & melodies, its so quintessentially her but i feel like shes breaking boundaries and barriers within her own cosmos. 
its beautiful but there are some skips for me personally, maybe theyll grow on me idk. listening again now but without the grants, judah smith interlude, kintsugi, fingertips & margaret. 
 
also peppers is so incredibly good never knew i needed this collab. lana rly thrives on these more dancey tracks with a good collab. 

She was so funny when she wrote the line “I blame myself for my reputation” because this woman blames everyone But herself 

If the Freeskyferreira delulus want the GP attention, they should start using snippets of SF unreleased songs like Untouchable final or any pop song she teased on SoundCloud so they can start a trend and make her go viral, that way maybe Capitol would release those unleaked gems. 
 
But oh well... 

Reading back through the bunny is a rider interview with crack magazine, she refrences making a song with grimes which i think turned into Fly To You, but we also missed out on Beck & Caroline's song leaking 

Ok, if we got a remix album of Desire I want it to have this kinda vibe:
 
Welcome To My Island (Charli XCX & George Daniel Remix)
Pretty In Possible (The Neptunes Remix)
Bunny is A Rider (HANA Remix)
Sunset (Timbaland Remix)
Crude Angel (Rina Sawayama & Clarence Clarity Remix)
I Believe (Ben Long & FLume Remix) ft Bibi Bourelli
Fly To You (Nia Archives Remix) Ft PinkPantheress & Grimes, Dido
Blood & Butter (Kate Bush Remix)
Hopedrunk Everasking (Bjork Remix)
Butterfly Net (Magdalena Bay Remix)
Vesuvius (Smoke Remix) 
Dang (Doss Remix)
Billions (Sega Bodega & Shygirl Remix)
 
I feel like Vesuvius would be like New Normal (Abnormal Mix). Also FYI Ben Long is SOPHIE's brother but ask me questions on this!

i just think it’s interesting and says a lot how nobody here can have an adult conversation about it and instead immediately gets defensive and starts spewing out insults at others who are concerned about this! you’re lucky this is the only time i’ve ever mentioned it in this thread because trust me i want to every time i see it on the forums index, and it’s a necessary conversation to have because this is a big thing. also “what we chose to do together” is melanie’s own assumption, idk about anyone else but every time i’ve ever been intimate with people we have both verbally said “yes”. if you think it’s necessary for rape allegations to be settled in court, then i would recommend doing some light reading and looking at the statistics for how many cases are dismissed, how difficult it is to provide evidence apart from they-said they-said, how expensive it is, and also just empathizing that maybe people don’t want to relive a trauma like that

i just don’t understand how people still let her get away with this; it’s not just petty stan drama like fans make it seem when they pull the “you don’t support real victims” card (fuck you), it’s serious stuff and people should not be looking up to her. the only proof i’ve seen of false allegation, which is what everyone runs with, is that timothy got the dates wrong (normal for people struggling from ptsd), and that timothy has bpd so she made it up (extremely harmful and ableist). melanie themself saying “she never said no” raises so many more red flags, but also confirms that these two were intimate at one point or another, where there should’ve been clear consent. i know this has all been said before, but i really want to crack the minds and moral standing of the concerning amount of people who continue to ride or die for this person. i don’t believe in separating the art from the artist in situations like these, but even if i did, i still wouldn’t think it’s right to continue to provide her with a platform

You're always so shady to me and for what.
Ok perfect I guess me not taking the girl who SA'd me in the middle of class to court means my experience is also invalid!

It's always believe all victims until its a fav I see

I want Charli to make a song with Lily Allen and Kate Nash and call it London Queens

LADADOWTA… CUS I DONT I DONT

singing along to the gibberish demo masterpiece that is time & envy 
 

Which is likely instrumental music and no vocals. It's not necessarily her doing a soundtrack.

Wait why is nobody talking about this?

We have a charli soundtrack album out

Imagine if the next era has the same witchy vibe as True Romance but with a more experimental AG Cook production (Like Grins meets Track 10 kinda)
