wilting daisy

Here are my manifestations:
- Bluesy jazzy sounds but with more beats. Like LTLI but with much more prominent beats
- more random instruments like flutes, sax, trumpets, mandolins whatever
- more chaotic outros
- return to bridges
- a 2 min long interlude of one of her poems
- dark acoustic guitar (like A&W pt1 and most AKA songs)
- burgundy, turquoise and deep purple vinyl variants
- behind-the-scenes from the studio
- Zodiac

yes! this is kinda what i meant when i said laura nyro vibes the othwr day. like if she kept her poetic confessional songwriting but paired it with girl group style melodies and harmonies but also with some of her eccentricities added on top

i'd love lana to try that 60s girl group sound she was going for before her and jack met for nfr, i think it would suit her so well

Bar t t tender is the best song on NFR. I'm glad to see she's been performing it live. 

nfr is one of my favorite lana music videos

idk how unpopular it is but 
 
patent leather do-over is her best poem

I’m a Chemtrails truther so I wouldn’t mind…

The longer she stays away from home, the more material and inspiration she’s gonna get. I support this!

I know that it's just unrealistic at this point of her life but tbh I would also love some Pin Up Galore/Trash Magic/Dealer type of album. It would end up too dark but anyways gimme that sad stripper vibes

debating getting the lime repress bc i don't have that one but i do already have the pink one so its not really necessary and i already hate myself for having 3 copies of violet, chemtrails, bainsters, & tunnel bc i'm only supposed to have 2 of each album. i'll probably get it tho bc i have no self control.

i honestly know very little about any of the doja cat stuff going on right now, but i don't think it's weird or that bad for her to say that she doesn't necessarily love her fans, or to reject the obsessive stan mentality, i feel like one could love their fans as a collective, since they like your art and support you by showing up for concerts, and buying merch/music, but you can't love individual people that you don't know at all just because they like your music

I like how honest Doja is about not caring about her fans. Is it a great marketing strategy? Hell no. But still, I prefer someone like her who is honest and tells her obsessed stans to get off the internet than someone like Taylor Swift who pretends to love each and every single one of her fans just to sell more merch and to chart

at least with violet and chemtrails it was mostly just different vinyl colours so its easier for (some) fans to hold back from buying every variant but in general i think lots of artists (including lana) release way too many vinyl variants. and lanels only do this now bc they realized thwy can get fans to buy like 12 copies of the same album if the vinyl is a different colour wven if its just slight shade variations. even the barbie soundtrack had a bunch of variants and that was just so... excessive. even with lana's past few albums she has been releasing more alt covers than she used to and that's a little frustrating for me bc i don't get every variant but with lana (and only lana) i do always get 1 standard black and 1 coloured vinyl/alt cover and its hardwr to choose a second one now (yes, first world problems, i know lol). so the billions of vinyl variants thing isnt specifically a taylor thing and i think its a problem bc its so wasteful and especially when things are advertised as limited it makes fans more likely to make impulse buys to avoid fomo.

this is why no matter how much effort taylor puts into them, the rerecordings will never be as good as the originals. you can't recapture lightning in a bottle.

when lana reworks trash magic for ldr10

These kind of voting awards are more like fan battles than objectively choosing the best video. Well Lana has objectively the best video but these kind of public voting awards have always proven that the one wins who has more fans 

Fan votes like this are so dumb, like obviously Candy Necklace is a better video. It's a full blown atmospheric FILM with a powerful message. The Paramore video is fine but like let's be real. They should just award it to the better video, not whoever has more rabid fans with more time on their hands 

no i agree that its good she's shedding light on this issue and hopefully it does change things for smaller artists. its like with her streaming boycott, it didn't matter how much money she made from streams but it did help smaller artists who were losing money when streaming took over. and i might be pessimistic but i feel like this time its actually leas likely for things to change for the better from this. i feel like labels are gonna make stricter contracta now that prevent rerecordings altogether and anyone who wants to get signed will have to deal with being screwed over. what taylor really needs to do is start her own label and sign new acts and give them contracta that actually benefit them.

but since she wrote the songs, she still does make money from them. this isn't like popstars from the 60s who didn't write their songs and often made no money at all from their music. like yeah she deserves to own her masters and get all the royalties but its not like she's not getting paid at all. and i'm a big swiftie too so i'm not just trying to drag taylor or anything. i just hate that people act like she makes no money off her old music. i also hate when people refer to those albums as "stolen" but that's a whole other story. taylor's lucky tho that she has such a fiercely loyal fanbase who are largely willing to boycott her original albums and switch to the newer inferior recordings bc most artists would probably lose even more money from this rerecording endeavour.
