But how can you say UV is too same-y when BTD has similar strings, hip hop samples, loon noises, that specific guitar sound etc. throughout almost every song?

Born to Die has better lyrics? Really?
"Every time I close my eyes, it's like a dark paradise." Case closed.
Besides, it's completely redundant to compare lyrics from a verse to a chorus, which is what you did... so.

She moves so gracefully. She's the perfect mistress.

The world needed this video
Btw, the pool scene is gorgeous but it looks more like the amateur section of youporn than a Bond movie tbh

This snippet is better than the whole WC video tbh

I don't think you are. I personally adore that album, but there's quite a few fans who feel let down and dislike UV.

Personally, I believe your statements about UV are more applicable to BtD than UV. Lana is such a talented lyricist, yet I feel she abandoned this wonderful ability when writing for BtD. Don't get me wrong, there are some pretty good tracks on there (National Anthem, OTTR, Lolita, Blue Jeans), but I feel the album as a whole is a bit amateurish. I think she really stepped up here game for UV and I believe her fantastic lyricism shine through on the album, especially on tracks like Brooklyn Baby, Is This Happiness, Flipside and Old Money. :flutters:

"Flipside" really feels like the proper ending for Ultraviolence. Moar Stranathan plz.

Reminds me slightly of her "Brite Lites" performance at this show:

She may wish she was dead already, but alterna-rock Lizzy lives!

"men are my passion" lmao

I understand what she means but I don't say these things out loud

why is she so easy to make fun of?

For an old fart like me who listens to classic rock, it's obvious to the point of being almost not worth mentioning, but for those of you who are younger (basically everyone), "I'm talking 'bout my generation" is a reference to this song by The Who:

Also, I love the line "I get high on hydroponic weed". Too bad it comes directly after "I've got feathers in my hair." (Why not go with "flowers"?)

My favorite part:

"Yeah, my boyfriend's pretty cool
But he's not as cool as me"

because if Barrie is singing this, it's a role reversal from the stereotypical LDR submissive lyrics, where she's in thrall to whomever she's singing about. BTW, I don't think she does that submissive thing all the time, but as her critics seem to assume this, I wonder what they're going to make of that one line (and Barrie's singing it). IMO, it's not about submission, but reverence, and it goes both ways.

I posted accidentally in the "unofficial video thread", but my main point there was that I'm fascinated that the song seems shorter than Video Games, yet it's actually longer. Do others get the sense that it's a fast listen (not tempo, but time duration)? Finally, I hope it's Barrie on the guitar too, and Auerbach did NOT produce this one (I heard he did 9 out of 11 in some interview). Does anybody know?
