Wow, just listened after a few months, and it's still sounds so new (and I overplayed it big time in the past). I-

I think you've cracked the code- I think my brain mixed both of those parts (Love Song w/ Green Light) and made it seem like it was more similar than it actually was lmao
-
Yes! Love Song, that's it- but still kinda California- but you're definitely right. I was starting to think I was going crazy lmao But also, what about the melody on the verses? Doesn't it remind you of something else? Either from NFR or Melodrama

I just started listening to the album and gold rush came and am I imagining things or it literally sounds like California (by Lana) but somewhat modified? The song literally started and instantly reminded me of California (same melody on the intro). Then the verses came and it either reminded me (again) of California or another song from NFR. PS: I know it was produced by Jack tho

The BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge or something? Iirc, we knew beforehand she was singing covers (I think that month was about artists singing another artists' songs), we just thought Doin' Time wasn't going to be one of them. The sound mixer (or whatever that guy was) even told us about that- and/or he said one of the songs we already knew what it was.

Nah, but let's be real here: she's either singing LMLYLAW or a still-to-be-released song from COCC (the title track). It would make sense for her to release something from the covers' album but I doubt they would book her on a TV show to sing some random cover. On top of that, there's the link for the title track (I doubt it's a pre-order). As I've said, "worst"-case scenario she's singing LMLYLAW (and releasing Chemtrails either next week or the week after), best she's singing Chemtrails. Personally, I'll be happy w/ any of them

Thank God it's a different vocal take (at least to me it seems) Ngl, it's really good and if it's in fact the same vocal take, then they did a good job mixing and mastering (way better than Baby Acoustic)

I agree that her communication is the worst but like, that last paragraph it's literally what people who praise BTD as her magnum opus say, like "How I wish she would make a BTD 2.0" or "I miss when she used to be all glammed up" and can't see past that (also, BTD was so overproduced). BTD was, and still is, iconic- it's a fact that it's one of the biggest debuts by a female from the last decade- but her music is still unique, no one actually does it like her (and I'm speaking both instrumental and lyric-wise), she doesn't go for generic shit. Personally, I can't actually say which album is the best/pick a favorite because they all mean something different to me (even though I can say LFL is lowkey the weakest from her, but still amazing). However, I know people do feel like that- and y'all are entitled to your own opinions- but it just doesn't sit right w/ me when people say she's lost what made her unique.

Some of y'all got worms for brains and it shows; no Big Eyes/ I Can Fly slander

The way I forgot this iconic song, shame on me She has already done it once, so why not? Imagine hearing this in full HQ studio quality: -
Hypothetical Lana Movie/TV Series Ideas
Yosemite replied to Rorman Nockwell's topic in Lana Thoughts
I'd love Tiffany Pollard to play Azealia, wouldn't be too serious and it could have comedic value or even Tiffany Haddish (for the same reason lmao) But if you want like more dramatic, something more "legit" close to the real Azealia, maybe Keke Palmer (?) -
Hypothetical Lana Movie/TV Series Ideas
Yosemite replied to Rorman Nockwell's topic in Lana Thoughts
There's really some pictures where Margot is brunette and she really looks like Lana at Met Gala 2012 Nah, your casting ideas were actually kinda of spot on, except for Kit (I can't see him as Barrie lmao) and if that were to happen, in a series or a movie, it would be great but I guess she won't ever give the rights tho Yeah I know, I'd love like a "docuseries", something like what Taylor did for Folklore (haven't watched tho) and many other artists. Imagine her talking about stuff w/ the producers (esp. Kahne and Auerbach) -

Am I crazy to think that Margot Robbie would actually pull it off? -
Hypothetical Lana Movie/TV Series Ideas
Yosemite replied to Rorman Nockwell's topic in Lana Thoughts
I'd really be down for all of this but what I really think they could do was like a miniseries w/ 6-ish episodes (1h each, aprox.) about every album. Something that had her telling how was creating each album along w/ the producers and never-seen-before footage from BTS for some music videos (the whole shooting process + after production + bloopers/reels). Intro: Lizzy Grant vs Lana Del Rey (30-40 min. "episode") Elizabeth Grant, known by her stage name Lana Del Rey, and previously known as Lizzy Grant or May Jailer (and many others), speaks on pre-fame, way before her single Video Games became viral and talks about her very first studio album, Lana Del Ray, under the stage name Lizzy Grant, as well as some of her previous projects. Special Guests: David Kahne & Bob Leone. Episode 1: The Revenge of Lana Del Rey Lana Del Rey speaks on how she wrote her debut album, Born To Die, the meaning behind some of its tracks and her inspirations. She discusses the success of Video Games and how she edited the viral video. Never-seen-before BTS footage is featured. Special Guests: Emile Haynie, Dan Heath, Rick Nowels & Chris Braide. Episode 2: Body Electric - Destroyed by Madness Del Rey speaks on the reissue of her debut album, Born to Die: The Paradise Edition, along with her intent to do a short film containing some of the songs from the EP. She discusses some of her inspirations such as beat poets and Whitman. Never-seen-before BTS footage is featured. Special Guests: Anthony Mandler, Dan Heath & Tim Larcombe. Episode 3: Deadly Nightshade - Beautiful yet Poisonous Del Rey talks about her writing process on her sophomore album, Utraviolence, the meaning behind the tracks and how meeting Dan Auerbach shifted the whole project - previously titled Melancholia. She also addresses controversy related to the album and the infamous quote, "I wish I was dead already". Never-seen-before BTS footage is featured as well as two unreleased tracks, Trans Am and Melancholia. Special Guests: Dan Auerbach & Rick Nowels. Episode 4: Dreaming Away Your Life Del Rey speaks on her third album, Honeymoon, the way she started writing and recording right after her sophomore album was released. She also talks about the album's early concept, Music To Watch Boys To, as well as its video. She discusses why she chose the photo her sister, Chuck Grant, took of her and not the one originally intended for the cover. Never-seen-before BTS footage is featured. Special Guests: Neil Krug, Chuck Grant & Jake Nava. Episode 5: From Death to Life - the Pursuit of Happiness Del Rey talks about the parallel between her debut album, Born To Die, and her fourth album, Lust For Life. She addresses how the political landscape shaped, and also shifted, the album, and how she had the urge to make a statement through her music. She also speaks on working with Rich Lee, director of Love, Lust for Life and White Mustang's videos. Never-seen-before BTS footage is featured as well as some unreleased tracks. Special Guests: Rich Lee, Rick Nowels, The Weeknd, ASAP Rocky, Sean Lennon and Stevie Nicks. Episode 6: Happy in Blue Del Rey starts by addressing the writer's block she went through on writing Norman Fucking Rockwell!, the follow-up album to Lust For Life. She speaks on meeting Jack Antonoff, the inspirations behind the title-track and how she started to write poetry in the midst of crafting the album. Never-seen-before BTS footage is featured. Special Guests: Jack Antonoff, Rich Lee & Rick Nowels. -
I get what you're saying but I guess the previous user was just talking about QFTC (in terms of people being snowflakes). However, your 1) isn't a new thing, she's been doing that since 2015 (?)- not defending her, she's wrong for doing it but it's not a recent thing- 2) there's no excuse for that and 3) if it's bullshit or not (mesh mask having plastic-ish fabric underneath) idk, and we're beating an already dead horse, but most people bought it so she actually didn't dig herself deeper on that one. Those "lashings", as you called them, were justified in most of the cases. I'd rather have her replying to those tweets, when people make up shit about her, the way she's been replying, rather than her being quiet and let people speculate and ending up believing tales. Anyway, I don't think I'ma buy the vinyl. I'm still deciding but
