    How doesn’t Lana, the most influential artist of the 2010’s, have a single Grammy? and these girl who came out of nowhere have three now

    She better pull Taylor Swift’s folklore - she won only album of the year although she was nominated for 6 Grammys.

    I mean are we really surprised after Harry Styles’s Music for Target won over RENAISSANCE last year? The Grammys just love easily digestible background music

    i really thought if she was taking any award home tonight it was one of the alternative ones. i really dont see her winning aoty or soty unfortunately. well goodnight guys. sad that lana paved the way for half the artists being awarded tonight and she's sat right at the front of the ceremony to watch herself lose to her own sons. i hope she never attends this event again if she goes home empty handed tonight.

  16. Lightning Moonbeam liked a post in a topic by Elle in Lana Del Rey interviewed for The Times   
    I love that line, but it certainly is complex. Here’s my simple personal take on it, especially with the context of her using Greek mythology and poetry as metaphors in her writing. It seems Lana finds comfort in metaphors (as do I, I love a good metaphor) and will often use them to sort of “soften a blow” of a hardship she’s sharing in her music, poetry, etc. For example, writing “they said to say yes but I did and I don’t like how it turned out” after taking influence from the Ulysses reading with the repetition of the word “yes” in the final lines. Or, in this interview noting how people have been burnt by certain paths they take in life, and after rather nonchalantly mentioning that she hasn’t yet had children after previously expressing she hoped to one day, says she’ll keep exploring life’s opportunities until something melts her wings - like Icarus after flying too close to the sun.
    In these two recent examples, it seems she’s using references to Greek mythology and poetry to process and understand her own life & emotions and find comfort in the connections.
    So, in that line when she says “they say there’s irony in the music, it’s a tragedy, I see nothing Greek in it” I take it to mean that she’s unable to find the beauty or the art in the hardships that have happened (such as the loss of her family, friends, other details she shares in the song) & while others may find irony in her music and view her sadness to be beautiful or artistic in a way, it’s not how she sees it this time. She can’t find that comforting tie in to relate her own story to that of an artistic myth or beautiful poem, so it is only what it is - just a tragedy.
    To simplify - I see nothing Greek in it = I see no beauty/comfort in it
    I think that’s also why in Fingertips she says everything sort of plainly/straight to the point especially in the latter half of the song following that line. The lyrics are quite diaristic. Instead of taking her thoughts and stories and attempting to string them into beautiful/artistic lyrics to soften them, she’s just telling them as they are. She can’t find that beautiful connection, she can only see the harsh tragedy. As the song progresses, the lyrics get more and more raw - until we reach the very final lines of the song where she ties in Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love & beauty, which is perhaps her final attempt of trying to find the beauty in an ugly situation.
    I hope I explained that all in a way that makes sense. But either way, that’s just my own interpretation - I love that lyric, so I’d love to hear any other interpretations as well x

    I can't with pathetic flop members in here complaining. Lana just gifted us an amazing, GORGEOUS song out of nowhere and you are still bitching? Shut the fuck up.
