    I feel like she's probably deeply embarrassed by that, wouldn't blame her tbh. The parasocial relationship her fans have with her fans is just... :um3:

    she’s definitely in a tough spot. it’s obvious she loves the fame but when your fans are that crazy…

     

    i saw on Reddit people were wondering if her or her team would speak out about it which I doubt. imagine having to tell your fans they need to back off:deadbanana:

    Look, this is an unpopular opinion and it's not a hate post but...

     

    I feel so uncomfortable watching Million Dollar Man lives from 2012. I mean great for her if she experimented with her vocal ranges and I love the later part of the song where she's yelling "one for the money wowowowo and two for the showwowowow I love you honey for the very first time..." part. But the rest of the song is just too much for me, sorry. I prefer her later performances of Million Dollar Man.

     

    On the other hand, the studio version of Million Dollar Man is so overlooked, it's so beautiful, I love the train space owl loon sounds with the cinematic production and her sad vocals, I love the lyrics too, I mean the opening line: "you said I was the most exotic flower, holding me tight in our final hour" just the line is so iconic, it's so dramatic and paints a scene like in James Bond or The Godfather mafia type movie, and the word play in that song too. It's just to beautiful, it used to be in the lower ranking of Born To Die but like three weeks ago I became so interested in that song that it's in my top 3 now. It's too beautiful to not overlook it. It carries the story very well. 

     

    Also Honeymoon title track should be appreciated more outside the fandom too. I feel like here most of us appreciates it but we still gotta notice how genius the composition is, the strings, piano and the marching drums, the genius bridge, elusive verses and the dreamy verses and outro. As I have said before Honeymoon and Million Dollar Man have the same aura around the sound, lyrics and the person. Just fucking genius.

    You hit the nail on the head! Million Dollar Man is one of my favorite Lana songs. Just because of its production. I’ve gone through spells where I play it on repeat before.
     

    Very overlooked song and deserves more flowers. And I definitely see the connection with Honeymoon, another amazing song. Wow!

    I'm totally manifesting a reworked version of 'Dum Dum', sluttily slowed down and given an ethereal angelic bit in there as a contrast.

     

    (Yeah I haven't slept in nearly 3 days so my brain is all over the place. So apologies for my weird, over-analysed, scrutiny of her entire back catalogue - including the unreleased stuff - I'm just hyper AF. Coming back to the boards, to then get hyped over a new album we know nothing about, probably wasn't the smartest idea. I really need to take some sleeping tablets and go to bed. Sorry again for sperging out so much, lol.)

    No, I’m absolutely loving your contribution here. I like the lengthy analysis. And wow, I’ve never agreed more. I would love a “sluttily slowed down” Dum Dum in her lower register. I think you and I have similar tastes. And want the same thing from Lana.
