Always loved Variety, one of the best entertainment magazines imo, magazine with class and taste, they have always recognized Lana, they even gave her that decade award!

I just hope Lasso will get nominated for next year. It’ll be so so good and she’ll win with the country categories! One day she’ll get her grammy. 

You’re so right! And I don’t even wanna be like “maybe next year she’ll get one.” She should have gotten one now! It just broke my heart to see her disappointment. A&W was so so so good and the first part was incredibly personal and the whole song was just so creative. I just don’t get how she lost in the Alternative categories.

It's sad that she didn't win, but it's really not that serious

I think it hurts worse because I was so sure and confident that she would be winning at least one. I wasn't even worried because I just knew she had it in the bag. I think I'm still in shock. 

I'm trying to pretend I don't care but this is so unfair and upsetting.

Yep, that category was BY FAR the worst snub. With the other categories it’s like…ok this person is more popular, this person is a grammy darling, etc. But a random Paramore song taking best alt music performance over A&W? Really? That was straight up disrespectful.
 
I remember too, it was like 2:30 pm for me when those categories were being announced: I was SO excited because I was so sure she was winning. This sounds dumb but I had been looking forward to this day since it was announced that she had been nominated for alt categories; I’m pretty sure most of us were like ‘of course she’s gonna win, this is a no-brainer.’ Not only does it devour the other nominees in terms of creativity, genre-bending, and lyricism, A&W was also critically acclaimed. Same applies to Ocean Blvd. Lana isn’t a random indie artist, her sales and streams are great. So all around it looked good and realistic. 
 
When she got snubbed for all her pre-show categories…yeah it was over then. If I was a celebrity I would’ve pulled a Kanye moment, got up on stage and said “Yo Billie, I’m really happy for you, I’ll let you finish but Lana had one of the best songs of all time! One of the best songs of all time!” *mic drop*

You’re so right! And I don’t even wanna be like “maybe next year she’ll get one.” She should have gotten one now! It just broke my heart to see her disappointment. A&W was so so so good and the first part was incredibly personal and the whole song was just so creative. I just don’t get how she lost in the Alternative categories. 

I felt and feel the same way. Once she lost BAMP and AA, I knew she would lose everything else. 
 
The way the Grammy judges probably see it, when Lana is old and grey and needs to sit, like Joni Mitchell, then they'll give Lana her revolving chair, bad lighting, and an excruciatingly over-the-top introduction like Mitchell received last night. 

I was not expecting LDR10 to come this soon but I’m so excited! Let the pre-release festivities begin! Giddy up, y’all! 

I'm so intrigued by the Tammy Wynette / Stand By Your Man references progression. First reference was in Breaking Up Slowly with "I don't wanna live a life of regret / I don't wanna end up like Tammy Wynette," which I think was her saying she doesn't want to have to settle for and stand by a man who isn't enough for her (in contrast to Norman Fucking Rockwell). Add in this past month of her singing Stand By Your Man, seemingly genuinely, where at one show she said "Hey sometimes you just have to," but then she switches it up last night saying "but if you love him, you won't forgive him."

my dream is to attend to one of her shows in a small venue
