    what lmaooo
     
    youre so philosophical lol. i didnt mean her music/legacy disappears. i meant SHE literally disappears. she'll release the album, be completely gone, promote a new music video on her instagram, disappear again, appear but only to get coffee, disappear again, and then appear going into a studio for the next record due in 15 months.
     
    theres no excitement in that!! yeah i could listen to BTD UV and HM nonstop, but without beautiful videos, lanas effort, and entertainment, the music starts to go bland.

    @@leaked_version obviously everyone is an individual and theyre not all gonna value the same things, so to me, if i were an artist i would put minimal effort into radio play, i agree about the videos though but it honestly depends on the song (if you want  people to interpret the content themselves or you had a vision you wanted to share etc), singing is a bit wishy washy tho like i have really bad anxiety and i cant even present things in class so the setting i think would have to be intimate
     
    idk this is so messy im sorry my thoughts are really disorganized lmao but i lanas music isnt really something thats made for radio, its more personal and one on one, and i think she wants it to stand for itself because shes already a quite established artist she doesnt need to do all that now because her content will already have a guaranteed audience (us) and if anyone else listens thats cool 
     
    i do wish her and chuck could give us more visual content tho, im sure theres tons of things that have been scrapped that we'd love anyways lmao

    I think some of you actually confuse promo with bling. 
     
    Promoting your material is also showcasing your talent, showcasing her songs live on stage. She still plays her old songs most of the time when she performs live. 
     
    There is no purpose in releasing new material if you are not owning it and are proud of singing new songs live, get them played on the radio, put effort into making beatiful videos (not high budget ones, but still beautiful and interesting).
     
    You want your music to be heard. So many artists would kill to be in the position she is in.

    I mean I understand that this is kinda like Melanie's thing, but this is cringey as fuck imo. I also lowkey thought that if she was gonna do a perfume it'd smell like cake or cookies but ok. I really just want this era to be done with even though I think she's going to stick with the child-like concept.

    Ultraviolence is definitely her hottest record.
     
    "Crying tears of gold, like lemonade"
    "He lives in California too"
    "Your hot, hot weather in the summer"
    "Down on the West Coast"
    "I'm feeling hot to the touch"
    "He's crazy y Cubano"
    "I'm feeling hotter than fire"
    "He's got the fire"
    "I'm on fire"
    "Sun and ocean blue"
    "I can see you bathing in the summer light"
    "Come on down to Florida"
    "Guns in the summertime"
    "We could get high in Miami"
    "All the Colombians say"
     
    Also,
     


     
    The Ultraviolence and Freak videos are also very, very summery, especially Freak - damn, it even seems like it was fucking hot the day they filmed it.
     
    And finally, the most important reason why UV is such a summer record - the music itself. Psychedelic rock is a genre that became really popular in the US (especially California) with events such as Woodstock and Summer of Love. Both were held, obviously, in summer. Also, hippies looked like this. Very UV-era Lana. This album also features various elements of desert rock, surf rock and soft rock... all of them originated and/or popularized in, uh, California.
     
    "I wanted to make a record that was sort of this mix of beautiful jazz undertones and a West Coast fusion, kind of inspired by the Eagles and the Beach Boys and this sort of Laurel Canyon revival thing that was happening in the '70s" - Lana herself for KROQ.
     
    "My word for the record was fire, you know, blue fire, when a flame gets so hot it goes from red to blue." - Lana for Rolling Stone. This is exactly why it might seem a winter record for some... it's really sad, blue... it's a depressing summer, kind of like AKA was a "sad party".

    The perfume is supposed to smell dark and fruity with a hint of strawberry milk. If you order anything from her store, you get a free sample! I'm gonna get the Extra Clutter vinyl from her store just so I can smell it

    I've got mixed feelings about it. Like the photo for your profile pic is gorgeous, a long with a couple of others from the shoot. But other than that I felt it was lacking something. :/
