    The fact that Lana opened the show with that song that twelve years ago was used as an example of "unhealthy music for children to listen to".

    My unsolicited thoughts about the concert:
     
    Lana has had technical issues, and any presentation she gives that has even a slight air of importance to it, she will be visibly nervous until she has something to make her relax and enjoy the moment.
     
    Last year was stressful. Return to the stage shows, Glastonbury, and even a Grammy catwalk left her anxious. It would be no different at Coachella. In the first few songs, she was so nervous that she couldn't get air in her voice. I believe it should be something to consider and, when putting together the show, to think strategically about it: starting with the vocal demands of Without You was not cool. But the following fun tracks were an interesting choice to get her grooving and grounded. I don't want to go on talking about the setlist, I think it's boring for fans to want a show to suit their own taste (many of the setlists put together by fans just replace songs that, in the end, will have the same vibe in the show).
     
    However, I would like her to consider all the tracks that, last year and this year, made a splash on the charts or went viral in a certain way. Lana doesn't have commercial purposes anymore, but not singing Margaret, Let the Light In and Say Yes to Heaven didn't seem smart to me.
     
    I made these negative comments first because I don't want what I'm going to say now to lose its power, because, in fact, this is my prevailing opinion: it was an excellent show.
     
    Think about it with me: the only thing that leaves us slightly disappointed is, as fans, having seen this show being built bit by bit over the past year; so, the parts we saw previously no longer hit us in the same way.
     
    However, I remember being surprised and satisfied with the new choreographies, the ballet, the stage more "full" of elements, the backing vocals complementing Lana's voice - in short, all the creativity present.
     
    For critics and anyone who went to see the show without wanting to have their favorite playlist playing, with their eyes clear, it was incredible. Right after Chemtrails and all the technical problems subsided a little, the atmosphere was amazing. Lana's real chemistry with the guests, the improvisations she did with the backing vocals, John Baptiste and her singing for a long time over just a piano at the biggest festival in the world known for having an electrifying energy was the most rockn act 'night roll.

    I almost hope Lana has a real feature on Taylor’s album and it’s pushed as a main single because that seems like the only way she’s gonna be recognized

    The good thing about Lana sitting next to Taylor is that the cameras love to show Taylor every single chance they get…so Lana should get some decent screen time!

    Not really, history tends to repeat itself in many ways, so the message could be still relevant in one hundred years, for example. Also Lana's political songs aren't like 100% political, so you could have many other interpretations too.

    A really amazing interview, which was beautifully built! It took me a long time to find the right words after I read this in the morning. It made me little bit emotional not gonna lie. She has come a long way and I'm so proud of her. I love how the interview touched every important aspect of her life and her career - what family means to her, what does she value, her current views of future, her studies at university, what's the next step in her music career. The interview did a great job! She always uses stunning words to describe her thoughts, she's an amazing example in poetry. She carries the philosophy of everyday life. I kind of felt a slight of melancholia when she talked about having children. Because I felt the indeciveness or more like the turmoil she was talking about facing a choice as an artist between having children or the desire of exploring the world, like which one would be her fate. I hope she chooses what's the best for her, she definitely knows herself the best! I love the mention of Greek mythology too and I love how some users deepened the discussion about it here, I really loved that, it was very fascinating. I also love the mention of "standards", I'm definitely one of those who thinks that it was about the cover album and I'm so excited for this! It's something I have been waiting for a long time! And I really loved the scrapped part of the interview where she talked about how fans mean a lot to her! She's a gorgeous soul inside and out, what else can I say! This Grammy-campaign period has definitely been very exciting so far! Looking forward for what's next! Long live, dear Did You Know That There's A Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd album! A phenomenal masterpiece for ages!

    I like how the interviewer is respectful and complements Lana's ideas in her own words (there was a career follow-up, not just a survey a few days ago). The most interesting thing about Lana is that she is on her 9th album and always has this aura that there is still a lot to come, there is a lot to be told. Like, yes, she is in a more simplistic phase, more dedicated to her family, I don't know, almost 40 years old, so I would totally understand if she announced her retirement for tomorrow. However, it is clear that even Lana knows that there is still a lot to come (and something interesting to see).
     
    The colleague commented on her growth over the years and how she is being more respected today and admired by new fans, and, yes, I am proof of that too. She was already very popular in 2013 and I knew a lot of people (online) who were admirers of her work, but not so much in my city; and I remember staying up early in the morning listening to the unreleased songs and thinking "how come no one else is listening to this?", not in the sense that only I would be paying attention, but in the sense that it should be talked about more, there should be more fans.
     
    And then I blink my eyes, and she is, thankfully, super popular now and seen as the artist she always was. Teenagers and children talk about her shortly after quoting Taylor Swift. It's not something common. We had artists who debuted with her at the time that today don't receive the same attention, it amazes me that their debut is still so popular, as it should have been considered, at the very least, outdated and tacky, but now young people share edits on TikTok as if it were something fresh months ago.
     
    I think Lana will always have this rescue as new generations emerge and work becomes more and more valued over time because that's exactly what she needed - time.
