LANA COVERING JEFF BUCKLEY MY DREAM COME TRUE I'M GONNA CRY 

Lana will be starring as a special guest on a Jeff Buckley special for BBC Radio 6 on September 15th!
 
The Instagram post is captioned: 
“UPDATE: The BBC's "30 YEARS OF GRACE" 2 hour radio special is now scheduled for BBC Radio 6 Music to be broadcast Sept. 15th at 8pm
Special guests include yours truly,
plus Guy Pearce, Nick Cave, Thom Yorke, Alanis Morissette, Lana Del Rey, Phoebe Bridgers, Joan Wasser, Merri Cyr, Glen Hansard, and Lenny Kaye.“

She kinda looks like a cracked out 16 year old who recently came into a lot of money and bought a bunch of expensive things that kinda match but kinda don’t
 
But like…in a good way

plot twist, her bag and laptop were never stolen from her car, it fell out while she was walking around with her bag wide open

Yosemite - so peaceful, true love <3

it’s crazy how we haven’t had such cryptic and interesting Lana lyrics in a minute… she’s been so upfront with her latest stuff that there’s barely room for interpretation 
 
I love reading yall’s theories!

I love reading all your theories about these lyrics, I'm also wondering about the "purify me" one, what did she mean in her heart - I have to think more about this but I'm so glad we know this song now and Ocean Blvd (album) makes even more sense in its intensity 

Lana was definitely in her true crime podcast era in 2022 when she created Candy Necklace (Black Dahlia) and Zodiac (Gilgo Four)

I really love this song and wish she released it   
 
I feel like this fits into the narrative of Ocean Blvd so well in terms of conversation based around legacy. Specifically how she name dropped four women who had their legacy stolen from them and practically turned into folklore revolving around someone else. It's actually really beautiful how she paid tribute to women by giving them a "hey we didn't forget about you"
 
I also feel like Lana connects with them because during the Lizzy Grant days she was pretty much homeless and living with whatever boyfriends that would let her stay over, she seems to reflect a lot on how she got lucky with her situation and others did not. It could have happened to her and considering this took place so close to her, it probably freaked her out.

That is one of my theories......but a different one is that Lana has said in interviews and in Fingertips that she communes with atleast one spirit (her uncle Dave). Expressing grief is a way of purifying the emotional space rather than letting it fester.... people often speak with or pray too the dead for guidance from the other side....it's possible that during a lowpoint lana , dwelling on the similarities between their and her stories, reached out to the girls for insight... I know that's really unhinged sounding and extreme for the normies but i have done similar before during rough times and it fits with the outro

How are people interpreting the Purify Me lyric? There's a lot to process but my first thought is that she's pleading on behalf of the women who were killed to at least be purified in death and granted safe passage to whatever comes next, rather than punishing them any further for their "sins" in this life.
 

i just simply adore this one
 
 

her top is from walmart and it costs 11 dollars. we stan a hi lo queen!

It’s kinda funny that Lana is meeting tens of fans nowadays and no one is asking about the album.

What an iconic interview  I didn't know Lana had known Nikki Lane since the making of Ultraviolence already

She shared her body and her mind with us... but it's all over now. Let's take a moment to appreciate the incredible, flawless material that was made during the "Trans Am-Tropico-Melancholia-Ultraviolence" era. Filled with low quality images of scribbled down tracklists, voice memo leaks, fake versions that resulted from phishing links and dumb producers, stem edits, lies, betrayal, and most of all... the creative mind and voice of Lana Del Rey. Today marks the start of our two-week celebration for the 10th Anniversary of Ultraviolence, the third official body of work that came out of all the chaos and time that led up to it. 2013-2014 was certainly a special time, and I'm sure it is one we will all never forget. For the PWYC music video, the West Coast (Radio Mix), and Fine China rain background noises, purify me... in the name of the father (tropico), son (melancholia), and holy spirit (ultraviolence). Now, dance the night away.

The way she posts this every single time Lana performs yet we haven’t seen the Priscilla hair
 
She really will show the most intricate gorgeous hairstyles for her inspo and then Lana shows up with a single curl in her hair 

these pics immediately gave me 2014:
"so how does it feel to be 28? old?"
"fuqqqq u" 
 

i was in the office today... a 5 minute walk away from where she was...  don’t talk to me
 

Earlier today, Lana Del Rey stopped to meet some fans while out shopping in London, England.
During her shopping, she stopped by a Chanel Boutique.

Ok, after letting this simmer a little bit, L4na was talking about the reception of the album. How it’s going to be received. She said “I really have no idea now!”. She didn’t the mean the direction of the album. She meant the reception.
 
“American Songbook”. She meant the lyrics specifically. Not the genre or the sound. The album is still country. They were asking her about the lyrics. The album is going to be more melodic and less self-revealing. LYRICALLY. In a similar vein to The Great American Songbook. LYRICALLY.
 
I don’t think she’s changing her mind or whatever.

I think Ocean Blvd is basically a fully fleshed out version of Blue Banisters 

rob filming them in the back is sooo !,@:!:?€:@;!:&:?:! we love a supportive dad tho
