never2heaven liked a post in a topic by paradisetropico in Blake Lee, Lana Del Rey's guitarist and music director, spoke about his first time meeting Lana in an interview for the release of his debut album
Blake Lee has a LENGTHY interview and in one small part (30 minute mark) he speaks about his time working on Ultraviolence and his first time meeting Lana!
Blake says he first met Lana and he was simply himself, no expectations. Byron helped him get the audition.
He says the First show they played together was secret and under an alias name in NYC.
He says working with Lana is "spontaneous, electric, thrilling" and he remembered looking up Video Games for the first time and his mother overheard and they both fell in love with the sound of the song and the video. and he knew he wanted to be part of her band.
Blake says he is blown away with how fast she writes songs and it is unlike anyone else he has worked with.
He says he has no idea how many songs she has written BUT Ultraviolence was originally a double album (40 songs were written for Ultraviolence that he remembers and said they were all worthy of being on the album. He said a few of the interludes that didn't make the album have been worked into some of the live shows they do)
Blake says he respects her so much and calls her "the real deal" and admires her ethos of "not trying hard or pretending to be something, and just saying NO when you don't want to do something or if something does not feel right knowing to say no, and then eventually the right thing will come along "
says it was Lana's idea to get Chriss Isaak to perform at the Hollywood Bowl,
Spoke about Sean Lennon and how magical it was

his new album is a dreamy, cinematic, avant-garde album and quite mesmerizing.

i dont agree with this- but it’s an interesting perspective! if you haven’t voted you are as much to blame for any political candidate getting in imo. it’s not one or the other to me. but i suppose that would depend what you’re complaining about

I disagree with this way of thinking entirely. It may seems like voting does nothing when neither of the options are perfect or the most ideal, but the point of voting was never to vote for the most perfect candidate that completely aligns with every single one of our ideals, but to vote for the best option.
"Don't let perfect be the enemy of good."
Also, I disagree that people who don't vote have the right to complain. They had the chance to vote and make an impact and instead they'd rather just sit it out and complain at home when it doesn't go their way? If you didn't vote and are upset about the way things went this election, then you know what you can do to try and change it? Vote in the next election.
Not just presidential elections, vote in local elections that directly affect you and the area you live in. Don't like any of the candidates in your local area? Why not try running yourself?
Around 244 million people were eligible to vote in the 2024 election and only about half of those people actually voted. Imagine where we would be if all 244 million of those people voted?
In 2020, Biden won two towns in Massachusetts by a single vote. We may not get much power to control what's happening around us, but voting is one of the few powers we have to change things. Why would anyone ever want to give that up?
Anyways, I know this quote probably wasn't meant to be taken that seriously (and I'm not directing this whole post at you) but I wanted to post this because this election showed that so many people didn't vote this time and look at where we are now...but maybe what I just wrote can convince some people to vote next time

Or….. to quote George Carlin
“For myself, I have solved this political dilemma in a very direct way. On Election Day, I stay home. Two reasons: first of all, voting is meaningless; this country was bought and paid for a long time ago. That empty shit they shuffle around and repackage every four years doesn’t mean a thing. Second, I don’t vote, because I firmly believe that if you vote, you have no right to complain. I know some people like to twist that around and say, ‘If you don’t vote, you have no right to complain.’ But where’s the logic in that? Think it through: If you vote, and you elect dishonest, incompetent politicians, and they screw things up, then you’re responsible for what they’ve done. You voted them in. You caused the problem. You have no right to complain. I, on the other hand, who did not vote—who, in fact, did not even leave the house on Election Day—am in no way responsible for what these politicians have done and have every right to complain about the mess you created. Which I had nothing to do with. Why can’t people see that?”
