The Sun Also Rises

Had to take this one as my profile pic 
 

This Chuck-shot full circle moment with a 15 year difference... 
 

I'm so glad I bought an orange dress for my concert

can we talk about how absolutely perfect the dark hair + that orange dress are together…
 
it feels very 70s, need some album visuals in this vein soooo bad 

I love how she's stating her happiness every chance she gets! as a long time fan it's really inspiring and beautiful to see her being so happy now. the early years were tough as hell but time proved everyone wrong. she's building a legacy that is worth more than pure gold and diamonds

i spy blue hydrangeas <33

A few years back, you said that you started editing yourself because your lyrics were too personal. Are you still doing that?
Only in the past two months! I’ve never had someone make comments on my lyrics before, and then I recently met up with another writer. It’s a little bit of a different process now. For Tunnel, I did not edit myself. 
 
This is interesting. I wonder with whom she's working right now? 

girl but we need the lyrics, the girls were singing "I'm a drag and you're a whore" for years  

Let’s hope her next album is BTD Americana and not yeehaw Americana!

Are you still thinking about doing a cover album?
Yeah, I want to. I’ve collected my cover songs for seven years. And I’ve said so much that I wanted to say, so it’s an awesome time to think about that. The standards. 
 
Creatively, do you see yourself on a course right now? 
The music took a huge turn from Norman, and it’s been going down that path aggressively. I’m going to continue going where I feel the only next stop is, but I think it’ll be in an Americana vein. The hard thing, in your personal life or in public, is that you can lose the idea that passion should be your true North. And, instead, safety should be. That’s the biggest pitfall. Being scared into making safe choices. Having a little bit of a cool-off period from the heat that might have been in a bad way, I got to reevaluate things. When there’s a little space, you get to choose. Then things get good.
 

IT'S LIKE HM-LFL-NFR COMBOOOOO AND IT REMINDS ME OF MORE THAT ROLLING STONES PHOTOSHOOT WITH WARMER COLORS!!!

lil cutie

Okay but the bicycle pic

Any physical copies? I don’t see any on the shop 

I think this may have already been posted, but I'll share. It's been a wild night. The hotel parking lot here is flooded, it was storming so bad before AND after the show. It's really a miracle she got in as much as she did. So many emotions tonight. I'll have more clips from the show soon 
 

"I don't know. I guess it's super real. I guess we really do have a storm front coming in. I guess that's really real. So, I just want to say that last song is why we're here. You're why we're here. We love every single second of this. This is something we never, ever could have done. Thank you so fucking much. I just want to say I really, really feel so humble every day. God has humbled me down to the ground and we persist anyways because it's just better to do what you love than to be scared to fail. I'm just saying that because we're finally all together after 14 years here. We're happy! We are. What a fucking miracle. We love every day. We're super happy. Stay safe, or fucking don't. You know what I'm saying? Have fun! Never forget to let passion be your true North Star. That has such a bad reputation. Follow your passion. Anyways, you don't need any advice from me, but that's what I did. Just don't do the fucked up way. When I get to see you guys, Dallas, so fucking amazing. Thank you for letting me be in Texas. Thank you to everybody. I guess we're really wrapping it up."

“Be Safe or Don’t…let your passion be your North Star.” What a beautiful speech! I’m so glad the Dallas crowd was a good one and she felt the love. I love her!

tb to when she headlined a whole event featuring father john misty, riopy, tommy genesis, and syml and singing legitimately none of their featured songs 

I understand that, but I love how it fits with blue banisters.

Still my favorite poem of hers  I think it's her best one too, it's such a tragedy what happened to Behind The Iron Gates 

Earlier today, Lana Del Rey and Nikki Lane visited Rare Heart Vintage in Dallas, Texas.

Absolutely agreed  There's a reason both of these albums are in my top three list — just so cinematic in different ways ... Honeymoon is world-building, full of colour, it feels like early mornings and late sunsets in sunny places; Ocean is introspective, black and white, noir, it feels like the light from a lighthouse flashing over a dark stormy sea, like twinkling lights of a big city at night, like looking out over the mountains illuminated by just the moon (or least to me) 

Unpopular opinion but God Knows I Tried is one of my favourite songs from the entire album. I would DIE to hear this whole recording
