Over the Chemmatrails

This thread is so deeply unserious lmfaooo

it's not that i believe people shouldn't ever listen to melanie martinez, but it's incredibly shameful how her fans look the other way regarding her rape allegations, and other strange things she has done
 
not to mention her fans harassed and targeted her accuser to the point where she had to leave the internet, good on her for having the strength and the bravery to speak out again about it not too long ago

melanie martinez making a diss track against her accuser was just simply insane in the worst way

This thread is so deeply unserious lmfaooo

So here's why it's unfortunately about Lorde
 
Life is awesome, I confess - Responding to Lorde's criticism of portraying a glamorous lifestyle that no can relate to. She confesses it's awesome, I guess.   What I do, I do it best You got nothing, I got tested And I passed, yes - In the game of alternative female pop singers, Lana professes that she does it best, and this amplified by the fact that she is successful even despite being "tested." She passed the test of public scrutiny, while Lorde didn't because she was immediately successful. Sense the jealousy here tbh   Lay me down tonight In my linen and curls Lay me down tonight Riviera girls - I know Lorde has curls etc but I think this is just a pretty nonsense Lana phrase. Of which she is full.   I fucked my way up to the top This is my show - Like it or not, kinda of a "nanana boo boo" in the face of Lorde's feminist message   I'm a drag and you're a whore - A little trickier. Maybe this is Lorde talking to her? Bc I can't see why she'd call Lorde a whore.   Don't even know what you're good for Mimicking me is a fucking bore to me - As far as mimicking, look to her new interview for the significance of the hip-hop sound of this song: "I would say the track having more of a hip hop heavier beat, whereas the rest of the album is live and organic…it kind of drives this one particular point home." Hip-hop influence is important here, something she and Lorde share. I mean plenty of sewer rats on LanaBoards.com have attempted to (unconvincingly) compare their sounds, and maybe Lana is surrounded by too many yes men and she believes this, too.   Need you, baby, like I breathe you, baby Need you, baby, more more more more - Here's the breakthrough and what's been getting all of us hung up. Why portray some kind of romance in a diss track? So we turn to Gaga, who likely fucked her boyfriend based on "So Legit"...but the rest of the equation doesn't match up. I think this part is mocking Lorde's particular gripe with "Without You": "She’s great, but I listened to that Lana Del Rey record and the whole time I was just thinking it’s so unhealthy for young girls to be listening to, you know: “I’m nothing without you.” This sort of shirt-tugging, desperate, don’t leave me stuff. That’s not a good thing for young girls, even young people, to hear." This line portrays exactly that desperation that Lorde was complaining about.       So is it a good look for Lana? No. But this shit is about Lorde let's begin facing that.

she really knows how to disappear

nothing new it’s just tumblr recycled tbh

I love how as soon as Lana changes one little word in the live performance of a song there are instantly ALL CAPS videos going like 
 
OMG LAMA DEL REY CHANGED THE WORDS FOR NFR! SUCH A SHAAAADE
 
and it turns out this is because she sang "You're just my man" instead of "a man" 

Add the Lana subreddit to this thread, a lot of them are cooked over there. I swear to fucking Jesus Christ our lord if another straight guy goes “I’m a guy who loves lana but is 101% straight” I’m gonna off myself
 
like shut up, your insecurity is showing so hard
Just love the music, who gives a fuck

Nope. Lana's label would never do that. Remember when Chemtrails was the top-selling vinyl in all of England?
 
They make a shit tonne on physical releases with her. 
 
So if the album is not ready yet, expect an autumn/early winter release. But would she have really said in November that the alum is done with 13 songs if it's not? I mean, she's not that big of an idiot. 

Littertrails over the cat club 
 
@Over the Chemmatrails your name & PFP reminded me I needed to add a COTCC cat thank u

all the lines which contain the word "daddy"

what is hope is a dangerous thing doing anywhere near this thread 

that music video where her multi eyed pink beast head is plastered onto a cgi snails body while she makes her way to her destination is sooo unserious and there hasnt been a time where i havent at least giggled to myself when i think about it

Clock the tea sis
100% true especially the part about switching… “justice for *insert any album* after years from their release. It has happened with every Lana album lol 

Oh my god. What the fuck. I'm actually lost for words. I don't know what to say, seriously. You know, I didn't really came to the awards hoping for a win because all I was looking for was a lot of fun and great company - which we got, it was really awesome and chaotic. Francesco, you're so damn funny, your humor was truly the peak of the night, each post got funnier, I've never had much fun laughing and reading your posts. It was joyful to read ultrablvd's posts as well, your humor is also amazing. Please, you two must win an award next year!!!
 
I love this place. I really wish I had joined earlier when I discovered this website in 2020. The time didn't feel right then though. Here, I truly feel myself. All weird and delusional, maybe it's that way because it's the Internet, most of us are here behind our screens with Lana as our profile photo icon, all of us either smiling, laughing, crying and vibing, sharing our love and admiration for a one certain person. That's the closest we could get to world peace. All of my life I had waited for a perfect place like this. And I'm so happy that I found it. This place changed my life and I think it made me a better person as well.
 
Looking all those awards I've won, I really do not think I deserved to win them (maybe except Most Active because I spend embarrassing amount of time here posting and commenting) because I haven't been here as a member for a long time and I feel that other members were more deserving of that because they have defined this place and I admire them so much. They make this place whole. Many of my fellow nominees in different categories were people I already loved when I was just a lurker. To be nominated alongside them was already a huge honor because perhaps they were the true reason I finally joined the forum. 
 
Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who voted for me in this category or any other category I was nominated. It's heartwarming and sometimes flattering as well some people here were thinking of me while nominating and/or voting for me in those award categories. I'm very grateful for the warm welcome and support I have received since I joined this forum a bit over a year and a half ago. You're all so kind and friendly which is really heartwarming, even the winners of the rudest and dramatic awards are inside all awesome and cool, the pinnacle of the forum's humor and drama - which without I can't really imagine this place. The world leaders should all learn something from you everyone because I feel like this is our happy place which could make this world better. Like, the passion and commitment for this community is really admirable. 
 
Shoutout to the fellow nominees of Lipster Of The Year Award: 
 
Pantene123 - you're so cool, you were truly the highlight of 2024 here. I'll never forget those jaw-dropping moments where we were reading all of these riveting insights on Lana's unreleased music which without the fandom would be so different. Your humor is also great, keep up the good work!
 
Mer - you're so iconic. You're a true superstar of this fandom. I love reading your status updates and your endless support for Taylor Swift is a great example for being loyal fan and ignoring all the haters. Congratulations for all your sweeps, so deserved!
 
Dark Angel - you sweet beautiful soul, I love your enchanting presence here, I admire your love and knowledge for Lizzy Grant, I have learned a lot about Lana from you. 
 
Elle - I can't imagine this place without you. You're the rock of this forum. A goddess. You've carried this place for almost 10 years and your work is worth all the admiration. It's an honor for Lana to have a fan like you, I really hope you'll meet her this year as well! Congratulations for your deserved sweeps as well!
 
Also, some highlights and stunning moments of those awards - I'm so fucking happy for venice biotch, she came and swept the awards she was truly deserving of. Your designed rats are truly the cultural phenomenon of this site for years to remember. I was rooting for the thread to win since its inception. BethDufreneByTheBayouByYou winning their second consecutive award for Best Username shows how amazingly creative some users can be. I'm so happy that The Stargirl Pinky won the Bartender Award because this whole time they were praying to win this award and when they deservingly won they were so happy, it made me really joyful as well. I'm so happy that DeadSeaOfMercury and Pico Ocean Boulevard won the Underrated Member awards, they're the people I have already admired before actually joining the forum. Ivory Almonds winning their awards was a special moment as well, I can't imagine the site without them. Today, there were so many other winners here as well who truly deserved their winner and runner-up awards, I'm so happy for you. I'm happy for all the people who were nominated as well, these were all deserved and I hope to see you and other people nominated next year too! This speech is getting so long, sorry for being too sentimental sometimes, if I performed this onstage I think I would have been kicked out already, lol. But nevermind, my endless gratefulness and joy is never enough to put into words.
 
I'm honored to share this award with all of the fellow nominees - @Pantene123 @Mer @Dark Angel and @Elle - you were the ones to truly define the community and the forum in 2024. You're all such gorgeous people inside and out, so kind and friendly, also with great taste in music. All of your posts were worth waiting and reading for. I love you all so much to the moon & back and I'm sending all of my kisses and hugs to you.
 
Thank you. ♡
 

Those are my thoughts as well.
May 21st doesn't seem like the release date anymore. They usually give us much more time to pre-order all the vinyl variants, etc.
And I don't see her record label release an album on a Wednesday. It's Lana, must be on a Friday.

No thoughts head empty just Suzie Toot
I've looped her three songs on Spotify for eight hours a day without breaks for five days straight and will not stop, best queen to come out of this franchise since, well, ever

ok that was a  stupid thing to say
 
I feel like every famous singer, specially women (who get way more scrutiny than men), are entitled to an era of contemplating how fame affects them and even complaining about it, but if you do it and then go to a bunch of events and award shows, calls paparazzi on you and is online 24/7, it feels hypocritical
