That's very sad actually

Weird bump^ lol
 
buttt
 
if you made an album of Lana Del Rey's Greatest, Heroin would be there for sure. I was watching someone's tiktok live via Youtube and they played Heroin, and I remember how great a track this was. It's a shame is too much of a personal track to be singed lived, but that is what makes it great.
 
 
I never thought about this!

I accidentally extracted these in UHQ from the Interview website.

Edit: It was shot on the 11th of January.

 

Here, we discuss about the writing/recording sessions, production, lyrics, collaborators, outtakes, visuals, themes and the behind of scenes of making of albums "Norman Fucking Rockwell!" and "Chemtrails Over The Country Club".
 
Already starting in 2017, Lana's creative process began to take a slightly different direction, completely changing with the meeting of Jack Antonoff - one of the main producers of the next five years, and now we will try to tell you how Lana's creative process went with the new producer.
 
A complete sound change in early 2018 is preceded by a six-month period in Lana's work, during which she had a writer's block and had few new ideas coming to her until late 2017, and because of that her creative journey had several paths to follow:
 
1. The release of a follow-up album to "Lust for Life, which was to include an original version of the song "Best American Record", "Silverlake" and other "Lust for Life" outtakes. Those plans were canceled after a Jack Antonoff meeting in very early 2018;
 
2. To continue working on the sixth album (which would later become "Norman Fucking Rockwell!") with Rick Nowels. So, during this period several songs were made: "Bartender" (which would later become part of the sixth album) and unknown sessions through the end of 2017, during which a number of unknown tracks were made, one of them - "Get Dark", that was recorded in September 2017.
 
But in January 2018, Lana contacted Jack, and he suggested we "meet, sit down, and just start doing something." Before meeting him, Lana expected him to have some ready-made beat ideas she could use, for Jack's production history is mostly pop-oriented, but Lana would later reveal, ". he spent hours playing chords, and he plays the piano so well that some of the things that he writes, like just melodically, really - it's kind of a classic - and in my case it ended up being more folk-oriented.", "...and in the first week I had two songs that I thought were probably the two best songs that I'd ever written." Here she's probably referring to "hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have - but i have it" and "Love Song," which were ready the day Lana and Jack first met (January 29, 2018) *Lana told Vogue Korea in an interview that the process of writing "hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have - but i have it" took her 3 years*.

 
For the next year and a half, Lana continued to work on the music exclusively with Jack, describing their process as "(Jack) played me five chords in a row, which ended up becoming a new song each time". Unfortunately, we are almost unaware of the timeline of Lana's creative process on her sixth album, "Norman Fucking Rockwell!", except for the dates of work on the released tracks, which are presented below:
 
- "Venice bitch" (the first version was done in February 2018 [the same version used at the end of the track "Taco Truck x VB"]; the final version was done on June 26, 2018);
- "Norman fucking Rockwell" (the track was reworked from the "Bird World" song, which was made January 29, 2018; final version made June 27, 2018);
- "Happiness is a butterfly" (originally titled "Happiness"; first version was made in March 2018; final version made June 30, 2018);
- "hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have - but i have it" (originally called "Sylvia" and "Sylvia Plath"; first version made January 29, 2018; final version made August 4, 2018);
- "Love Song" (first version made January 29, 2018; final version made August 6, 2018);
- "Mariners apartment complex" (originally titled "I'm Your Man"; first version made February 2018; final version made August 31, 2018);
- "Cinnamon Girl" (originally titled "Cinnamon"; first version made October 2018; final version made December 18, 2018);
- "California" (track is a reworking of a song from 2017; final version made January 18, 2019);
- "How to disappear" (first version made in October 2018; final version made January 20, 2019);
- "The greatest" (first version made in 2018/2019; final version made February 13, 2019);
Undisclosed dates:
- "Bartender" (the track was made in 2017 with Rick Nowles; for the first time, Lana revealed the track's existence on January 28, 2018, and said it "does not yet belong on an upcoming record"; the track played on Lana's sister Chuck Grant [Chuck Grant]'s Instagram Stories on May 10, 2018);
- "The Next Best American Record" (a reworked version of the track "Best American Record"; it is unknown when Lana reworked the track and when it became part of her sixth album);
 
RMF Classic Radio on November 3, 2018 once again confirmed what Lana had said on September 18, 2018, that the album was to be released in late March and that there would be 11 tracks on it (which ones are unknown). Also, in December 2018, MTV UK reported that the album would be released on March 29, 2019, and in December, Lana reported that the album was completely finished and also liked an article stating a March release date for the album.

 
Up to March 29th, various information from different sources kept coming in, either denying or confirming the album's release in March. But when March 29th came, the album was not released for unknown reasons.
 
Over the next 5 months, Lana makes two new songs for the record (Doin' Time [April 2019] and Fuck it I love you [July 2019]), and the world premiere of Lana's sixth studio album Norman Fucking Rockwell! took place on August 30, 2019, and songs made during sessions for the album but not included are:
 
- "Not All Who Wonder Are Lost" (originally titled "Wanderlust"; the track was made during the sessions for "Norman Fucking Rockwell!" but the original version was released on the next album, "Chemtrails Over the Country Club");
- "Valley of the Dolls" (concept demo, was made February 14, 2017 during sessions with The Last Shadow Puppets; later sent as a track idea along with some other unknown tracks for revision to Jack Antonoff; the track was never revised by him);
- "LA Who Am I" (snippet; the track was likely made just for fun, and is a reworked version of the track "LA Who Am I to Love You" from 2016);
- "Talking like an Answering Machine" (the song was first listed on Buma/Sterma and there were rumors that the song was not made until 2018; the chances that the song is real and refers to Lana are higher than that the song is unreal);
- "Bombastic" Outtakes (told by Jack Antonoff during an interview that tracks with an "explosive" sound were made during the sessions for the album that remain unleaked);
- Rick Nowels Outtakes (it was revealed that there are songs made by Rick Nowels for the sixth studio album that remain unleaked).
- "Jimmy" part from "A&W" (In an interview for Rolling Stones, Jack Antonoff talked about the process of making "Jimmy" and "that they had created a while back" suggesting that it was made during the NFR sessions).
 
Thank you for the information @lanaismamom 

“And if I do, will you be there with me, Father, Sister, Brother?“

Manifesting this or ldr with a heart. Prolly won’t get either 🤣

Oh wow…

I know I'm not Joni Mitchell
But I've got a dad who plays like Billie Joel
I know I can’t see the whole picture but
I like to dream about my days of gold
I’ve got a swimming pool
I like to float on a surface and
Think about all of my memories of old ohhh
those days of old
Twice I sang at the Hollywood bowl
And my dad plays just like Billie Joel
And I’m young when I’m old
And I’m old when I’m young when I’m old
At the whims of my heart and my soul
I don’t think of myself a special, but
I like to live my life colorful and bold
I’ve got a swimming pool
I like to float on a surface and
Think of the stories I’ve already saw 
I’ve got a feeling, I’ve got a memory 
Why wait for heaven?
When I could have heaven right here
Like I’m told, ah, Just like I’m told
Twice I sang at the Hollywood bowl
And my dad plays just like Billie Joel
And I’m young when I’m old
And I’m old when I’m young when I’m old
And I’ll follow wherever you go
Ta ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra
I’ve got a swimming pool
Ta ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra
I like to float away 
Ohhh, Ahhhh

I want cry everytime
No lie.
 
The whole song is so sad, I wish I could travel back in time to Lizzy's hard times and just hug her, even if she calls the cops, I just want to hold her
lmao :/
 
 
Such a powerful message
 
  "This is life, this tonight, peace in the quiet Happiness is the sky" 

3 days for 

As Taylor might say, Lana was weird but fuckin' beautiful. She seemed to alternate being sad/withdrawn and suddenly saying certain words or lines really loud and kind of angry (or maybe defiant?). A stalker would certainly explain it. Or something we don't know about. Anyway, she looked great and periodically sounded great, so there's no doubt she's still got it! 
 
Acc to this setlist Bittersweet Anthem is just National Anthem, the end. 

After watching the blue banisters live where she said she cried all day or something like that because of her chickens being disturbed by the paparazzi I honestly don’t think she is used to any of these “famous person” situations… Like she’s a REALLY sensitive person. I can completely relate and I would be losing my shit crying for hours backstage they’d need to put me on sedatives and drag me out to play (and this is even if I loved my fans and loved music).. honestly I feel for her and I’m not gonna hate on her for it. After candy necklace video it seems like she’s giving touring another ~mild~ try to decide the direction in which she wants to go 🤨 The whole “where do we go from here” ending and what not. I could be interpreting the situation completely wrong though 

So the youtube version was the one Lana first teased us on instagram with the daisy chains line being after Asap's verse to have it all changed on the album version by saying it on her first verse  
 
She really changed a lot of things last minute 

Once you told me
Look for the North Star 
Then you’ll see
Halley
I need
Found my way to the beach
& there were waves over me
I was lost at sea
'Til you found me
'Til you found me
Ohh
At your lead
I believe
I believe
I was lost
Lost at sea
Ohh
Lost at sea
 
 
Lines in italic are ones I'm not confident about, so any input is welcome and appreciated! x

Oh this smash hit 

It's turning into such a great year for her. 2023 really feels like Lana back in form career wise. 

To shout it out loud (as Kiss would say), there is not one second (alright, maybe one or two seconds) or actual un-produced 'Behind the Scenes' footage in Candy Necklace. We are just being lulled into a sense of thinking we are watching first a regular music video, then a meta video, then a behind the scenes film. All of it, and all of the photos posted by the filmmakers, as well as the 'teaser' from a few weeks ago, are all a part of the product.

But…
 
There’s always a but 

i can’t listen to this song without crying. i lost two ppl very close to me last year one in august and another in december and the thought of taking memories with u after u leave is just making me cry so much every time
