Some of these nasty reviews are making me so sad. To me, Lana is a star akin to older generations—when musicians didn’t spend months training, both physically and vocally, for a show or tour, but showed up as they were, just to sing, without all of the fanfare. I absolutely appreciate spectacles like the Eras tour and Beychella, etc., those are masterful feats of artistry and intense preparation, but I just don’t feel like that’s what Lana’s after. Obviously I don’t know her personally, but to me, she’s more of a songwriter and poet who probably prefers a normal, delicate, relaxed existence (exemplified by her appearing at random garden stores and coffee shops along the California coast). I think she probably still battles stage fright, and I’m really amazed and proud that she signed up to do these two shows. After writing music so different from—and changing the sound of—the industry over the past 10 years+, it’s really cool to see her finally get her flowers as the headliner and do it in her own way. Maybe a massive arena-style stage isn’t the kindest venue for her talents and unique energy, but she did it in her own way, with heart and absolute style. I’m proud to be a fan and it’s not surprising to see these reviews (ahem, Guardian) revert to their 2014 tone. 

Real now she needs to replace every other person on her team 

i love that she got a real stylist cause this is EVERYTHING and more 

I think bc of the message of the song that’s why she chose it as an opener
its essentially “I’m happy & I have everything I want in life, but I’d have nothing without you (fans)”

rewatching young and beautiful and that looks straight out of a movie scene omg 

I completely agree. lanas voice is especially unique and there is nobody you can actually compare her too!

What the fuck
Next week will definetly be better but the vocals weren’t nessesccarily bad i don’t understand the hate

we need a stadium tour 

And ngl I hope she doesn’t have an outro to the back rooms music ahain that scared the shit out of me

I’m excited for next weeks look! weeknd 1 was actually so good and nothing like what her usual style is

I feel like we are being way too harsh on her for her vocals. She literally sang cherry & aw and didn’t playback like in forever, was ready to serve vocals in pwyc but the mic didn’t let her etc. I noticed her mood went downhill super quickly after she noticed her mic was screwed up and she also tried to incorporate all of her high notes by either singing them in a Lower note, letting a background singer take over, or singing less belty more breathy. I can easily tell this was the most effort she put in forever but was bummed super easily by tech issues.

I feel like Jon is someone who would get along with anyone, especially anyone creative, and because he obviously likes Lana's artistry, they gel really well. They have the same sort of platonic hot chemistry that she has also shown with Blake at times, which comes from the comfort of being friends who aren't into each other.

i honestly think every lana stan should experience btd live

Yess I really expected her to start singing either while going on stage or right when she sat down… But then she sat down and set the tone for what was to come with having to do a mic check. In general I just hope some of the transitions between songs will be improved so that there’s a more natural flow to it all
