Why you work so hard when you could just be free   

Hello, ladies and gentlemen. The big night is getting closer and closer, January 23th, 2016. Now, so everyone on here can attend to the biggest event in LanaBoards history, I'm gonna post our schedule for that day.



As every awards ceremony, performers will make our experience even more pleasant. Now, I'm not asking you to film yourself bouncing your titties or singing a song - or choreographing a dance routine to Video Games. I mean, that's totally valid too, but online-lly, we have a vast repertoire to choose from. A performance spot can be used for whatever you want: post a link to your own song (for those musician Lipsters!), post a picture of Christina Lucci, a Qaadir gif, a link to you blog post, a Lana performance, a song by other artists... whatever you want! Just remember, it has to entertain our public and guests.

Performance spots will start at 8, if more users want to perform spots will be added. This is just an amount to start with because I don't know how you guys are going to respond to this. It could be a flop, it could be a hit - it's in your hands.

Please copy and paste the following list and add your name to whichever spot you want. Once you do this please contact me through DM so I can give you instructions and help.

The Pre-Show will take place at 14:00 EST (19:00 GMT).
This is the time forum celebrities can begin to arrive and show off their ceremony outfits, and sissy that walk in our Red Carpet.
The winners of the Music Categories awards will also be revealed at the Pre-Show.
To brighten up our wait, we will be graced by four performances: three forum members and an extra especial guest performer (soon to be revealed).



Ceremony will begin at 15:00 EST (20:00 GMT).
This is the moment that counts. This gala is where Lipsters will turn into LanaBoards legends, and their light will shine forever in this board's history.
Gala will take approximately two hours. Graced by five user performances, the show will begin with the extra special performance of Ines Brasil, which will include a level of special effects never seen before. The show will end with another extra special guest, soon to be revealed.
Winners will be announced in small batches of three - so we don't take a lot of time and so everyone has their time to shine.
Our winners will also receive a cute statuette, designed by the prestigious brand @@Trash Magic named "Lipster Award of Merit", commonly known by its nickname - "SNLana":

If I did it right, it should say the difference between your time zone and the EST one.


See you soon enough, fatties.

Reasons why I think it isn't:
 
1. Most of the songs sound uninspired and rushed, some even rushed in terms of production. High By the Beach being the epitome of everything that's wrong with the album. Most of the time it comes of as tuneless and nothing really stands out due to the over-cohesiveness of it all.
 
2. Songs like God Knows I Tried, 24, Swan Song, Honeymoon, Terrence Loves You just lack the oomph Lana usually has with her songs. The melodies are not striking enough and the repetitive and monotonous production just doesn't help. There are no instant standouts that live up to some of her signature songs or the best songs from her previous records.
 
3. HOWEVER, it's still one of the best albums from 2015 and I do listen to it a lot because I stan her but it's clearly her worst and most disappointing effort so far. It's definitely cohesive and it works well as a body of work but overall it just seems like she wasn't really into it.
 
Sorry, if I'm being a Debbie Downer here. I do like the album but I refuse to see it being anywhere near BTD, P & UV. I also think that this thread wouldn't be necessary if a lot of people didn't feel the way I do.

Banned member Carcass says:
"Because it's her most experimental album. She has trap beats, she has a noir film song, she has her piano ballads she loves, she has some trippy pop songs. It's not just a sad, ballad filled album, she's actually experimented with different sounds more than she has on Ultraviolence or Born To Die."
 
 
 
Don't want to spoil the mood but .. it's not experimental at all. Yeah she has a few influences, but that doesn't make it experimental. She stayed in her comfort zone a lot in HM.

Honeymoon is great because it was Lana's best effort after giving us the 2nd best album of all time, Ultraviolence. Even though Honeymoon, Swan Song and 24 are (in my opinion) some of Lana's worst songs they're still better than your fav's entire discography. 

Honeymoon(the song) is not good.I try to listen to it,but it's so boring and the arrangement of the song is a mess. The only part I like about the song is the ending when she sings "dreaming away your life".

Honeymoon is her worst album. Not sure if that's an unpopular opinion but I feel it needed to be said.
 
Paradise is thematically superior to Born to Die but the latter is a stronger body of work while I tend to prefer Paradise.
 
Ultraviolence is her best album but only if you include the glorious and to a certain extend superior bonus tracks.
 
Most of Lana's singles are among my least favourite songs from her, especially in recent days.

... on a lighter note, I was in Florida with my mom for Christmas and she asked me if I wanted to see the giant Christmas tree in the city of Delray Beach and I said yes.
 
*giggle*

Also, this probably doesn't add anything to this but I always thought of May Jailer as a big hint that K went to JAILer on the month of MAY

She stopped making great music after Big Eyes. Honeymoon is good, but doesn't compare to her previous music. Feels like she lost her essence early 2015.

DEFINITELY agree about the bonus tracks. imagine if lana had had her way & not included them? imagine life w/out florida kilos & flipside? 

i wonder if they're the russian spammers we get periodically

Well, that's what happens when you don't release Life is Beautiful.

Summertime Sadness's video is perfection, breathtakingly beautiful

I disagree since UV has many psychedelic elements such as guitar solos, synthesizers, extreme reverb and even the 'wah wah' effect. I'm no authority in the matter but think it's fair to call it psychedelic.
