  1. oo I've been wanting to have a convo about this lyric- does anybody else hear "I wanna buy you up plus a white milkshake"? Love this song anyway tho <3 such a bop
  2. me rn hoping that 6pm GMT drop is coming (valentines day is so cute but i have a shift when it drops & won’t be able to listen to it for 3 hours so it needs to come earlier than eclipse said atp)
  3. (circling back to old convos unprovoked,) i’ve been a “Lennon in the back” truther since him & Nilsson worked on Pussy Cats together but recently I’ve also been thinking on how both men also actually lived quite similar lives & that's another correlation. They were famous 60s/70s musicians who became friends & died fairly early, tragic deaths- Lennon was shot at 40, Nilsson died of a heart attack at 52. Besides that we know Lana generally has sought comfort in the “idols” she has, whether they’re dead or alive, like many of us do... Ive often split the lyrics up as such: Harry Nilsson has a song, his voice breaks at 2:05 Something about the way he says ‘don’t forget me’ makes me feel like I just wish I had a friend like him, someone to give me five Lennon in the back whisperin in my ear ‘come on, baby, you can thrive’ but I can’t” as in she cannot thrive. However now i’m thinking it’s: Harry Nilsson has a song, his voice breaks at 2:05 Something about the way he says ‘Don’t forget me’ makes me feel like I just wish I had a friend like him, someone to give me five Lennon in the back whisperin in my ear ‘come on, baby, you can thrive’ but I can’t” linked to the entire verse/bridge, as in despite the strong connection she feels to them through their work etc, she knows she can’t ever have them (or any of her other big inspirations.. Amy, Kurt, Marilyn, Jim, Elvis, Leonard etc) as her real life friends- she can’t get that high five from Harry or those positive affirmations from John. Both of them would be roughly 80 years old if they were still alive today, so it’s not like it wouldve been impossible for her to have maybe met them one day or atleast gone to a show of theirs or something, had life circumstances simply been different & that's also a sombering realisation to make..... especially when you yourself are pondering "whens it gonna be my turn? Don't forget me!" it also makes me think back to her interview w Clash : “When I was studying philosophy my teacher told me that it’s okay to feel like the people you’re closest to aren’t alive anymore. Sometimes that is the best company to keep. It’s about the people that pondered the same questions as you did, and had the same sort of life mentality as you. I was upset and inspired by that premise. I knew then, really, that my closest friends would be people I have never really met before.” I dont think her mindset on this has changed at all thru the years
  4. no idea what to expect with the whole Jimmy coco puff thing/2nd part of the song- it sounds like something fun & lighthearted on the surface, esp when you factor those trap beats in too but like is there a correlation to the Lizzy/ UV “he hurt me but it felt like true love” cult leader esque Jim ? cuz if so i’m not ready
  5. im gonna have to listen to it in my bedroom at 3am half asleep I get to have my first listen crammed in the back office at work 2 hours into my 4 hr shift while 5 customers in the change room need help picking a matching kimono & 2 more are standing in line to pay & i also have to get out the new stuff for the walls since the valentines deco comes back down the next morning But im still gonna do it and idgaf
  6. a ‘Jim’ song, a ‘Daddy’ song, a ‘Serene Queen’ song.. album has it all even a “HARRY NILSSON HAS A SONG HIS VOICE BREAKS AT 2:05” song
  7. i feel like i’m back in the trenches … F in chat for all the girlies who’re going to be wage slaving when the song drops on the verge of becoming a commie
  8. WAIT FUCK i work on valentines during the time when she releases … 3-7pm eu time & i wasn’t even meant to … i offered to cover someone’s shift a couple weeks ago when they asked NAUUURRRRRR Let me go thinking of a fake appointment really quick brb
