    I know she’s not the most extroverted, but honestly watching the start so far, she belongs on stage. It’s been so long and the crowd seems so respectful and entranced.
     
    Brazil’s audience looks so grateful and cherishing it’s all so beautiful to watch

    My theory; I think VG was the perfect song to finish on
     
    I hate when people diminish Lana’s earlier work to being all about boyfriends and relationships and shit (I mean a lot of it is but it’s not JUST about that). But it is also evident that bfs & relationships are big impacts on her and on what she writes about
     
    She’s spoken at length about the process she had of writing Video Games - about a relationship where she’s essentially given up her plans as a writer/singer to live a life of domesticity with her man. A lot of people play it at their weddings and I’ve never known why because it’s beautiful, yeah, but it’s so damn sad. Not just melodically - but the overarching themes break my heart
     
    And ofc we all remember the infamous Dublin performance where L broke down singing VG on stage. Singing “it’s only worth living if somebody  is loving you” at a time when felt like she wasn’t - not just in a relationship sense but in terms of fans too, being villianised by the press, being openly suicidal - is beyond heartbreaking to think
     
    But now she’s SO much happier and healthier, which is a point she’s stressed repeatedly in interviews and is apparent to see even in candid and fan photos. She told Rolling Stone in March that she has passion for making music (or words to that effect, can’t double check rn) for the first time in a decade. She’s just released an album full of healing 
     
    So to me it makes perfect sense to use VG as a closer now. A) it shows full circle how far she’s come from those days when she couldn’t sing it without breaking down and B) with all the self-reflection she’s done on family and friends and so on, the lines don’t HAVE to be about a partner anymore. To me, when she says “it’s you, it’s you, it’s all for you…” she’s saying it to her fans and loved ones, because THEY are the ones she lives for now. And also for herself! I like to think she’s addressing past Lizzy on the stage of Arlene’s Grocery with her lil guitar telling her… this is for you, too, kid.
     
    (I haven’t taken my mood stabilisers yet so please excuse me.)
     
    So she’s sending her fans back out into the world after her performance telling them… this was for y’all. I think it fits beautifully. 
     
    (In the same vein I think Get Free would also work, but VG ties the whole healing shit together better)

    I think we witnessed HERstory. 
    It was the first edition of this new set/show, and it might need some adjustments here and there, but this is a pretty important and noticeable departure from her previous format. I loved the theatrics and how she now has actual back singers on stage as opposed to that loud backtrack.
     
    The setlist was good, although some songs are long overdue for retirement, and singing like 1 minute of A&W and NFR was a choice—overall it wasn't that bad song-wise. I get that it's a festival and time is an issue, but it kinda felt too condensed at times.
     
    I hope she keeps up with that energy, she really looked like she enjoyed herself and, dare I say, she never looked this comfortable on stage.

    Did we watch the same thing???????? There were some issues at the very beginning but she absolutely SLAYED the rest of her set. Her vocals on Arcadia, the grants, and candy necklace were incredible and some of her best to date live.

    I'm sorry but she didn't HAVE to perform several of my fav Ocean Blvd songs 
    She didn't HAVE to slay NFR and Arcadia this way 
    She didn't HAVE to perform Flipside 
    She didn't HAVE to have outfit and wig changes? 
     
    TF the meltdowns I'm having she really CAME THRU

    I love video games but tunnel was so emotional and the live arrangement was amazing I kind of think that should be the closer…
