Foxglove 2,266 Posted May 16, 2019 this is really mean. her poetry is not shit at all she is a public figure putting her work out into the world (and getting paid millions to do so). criticism is part of that. im sure most people would think my art is trash, and i would accept it if someone told me. no one is obligated to like someone's art. i love most of what Lana has done, including the monologues in her music videos past. i shouldnt just say "her poetry is shit" bc its subjective. but i personally do not like it for the reasons i laid out - it lacks depth and only focuses on vague relationship drama. been there done that 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rorman Nockwell 54,836 Posted May 16, 2019 100% forgiveness if she drops an MV for it at midnight 'merican time. 100% forgiveness ... and I'm 100% delusional af. 0 ur legit gonna look the same stop buying oil of Olay face cream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terrence Loves Me 72,094 Posted May 16, 2019 The song is cute but its exactly everything i expected from the snippet. There's literally nothing new to it and its pretty bland and repetitive the whole way through. I dont know why ya'll are loving it so much 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SlowGinFizzzz 15,329 Posted May 16, 2019 Yeah you can tell this is what she wanted LFL to be more in the vein of. I blame Rick for that shit The only person to blame for how shit LFL turned out is Lana herself. It sounds the way she wanted it to sound. Doin' Time is flawless. I kinda wanted to keep hating on Lana for the rest of this era, but now I love her again. Mess. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
divebarsinger 2,715 Posted May 17, 2019 she's dropped songs and fucked off so many times without releasing an actual album or giving any input, stay frosty guys. i know we've been renewed but let's not delude ourselves. everyone sit down, anyone for a cold beverage? The song is cute but its exactly everything i expected from the snippet. There's literally nothing new to it and its pretty bland and repetitive the whole way through. I dont know why ya'll are loving it so much this is me. it's great but it's not memorable, it's just not 3 There's things I wanna say to you, but I'll just let you live Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terrence Loves Me 72,094 Posted May 17, 2019 I was never the slightest bit interested in the snippet either.. yeah this songs just not it. I hope its not on the album. There's no way she could place a masterpiece like Hope and a song like this on the same album. No way 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DCooper 35,044 Posted May 17, 2019 Obviously it's possible that Doin' Time means nothing for NFR, but it would be pretty damn smart of her to drop a track like this after the massive delays before finally announcing the release of NFR soon. It's sooooo good, and the perfect summer bop. Even better than the original I think. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

divebarsinger 2,715 Posted May 17, 2019 some of the problem for me is that she's SO emotive and personal as an artist and even her bops on born to die (which i'm still not bored of) were emotive, this is a great cover and i think it has radio play all over it (whether this happens or not is a different matter) but it wasn't written by her and it just... doesn't move me, maybe because i don't associate it with her or anything she's trying to say about herself it's partly why love did nothing for me, again great song.. but i didn't feel she meant 50% of that album and was instead trying to move on from this 'sad girl' image she's created... when actually, she seems like a restless unsatisfied person 5 There's things I wanna say to you, but I'll just let you live Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

divebarsinger 2,715 Posted May 17, 2019 i liked summer bummer, but it was also so 'her'. idk, what doesn't help is she's now carved such strong, continuous imagery for herself. she uses the same themes repeatedly and even a lot of the same lyrics, her breaking from that will be really hard. on LFL she tried to do that and failed so bad 1 There's things I wanna say to you, but I'll just let you live Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's hard for me to vibe with Doin' Time on an emotional level because the lyrics are not hers and don't really have any meaning to me. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

divebarsinger 2,715 Posted May 17, 2019 genuine question, did any of us become fans of lana because she wasn't a sad, horny, dissatisfied "failed beauty queen" who constantly felt insecure and abandoned by people she loved and dreamed of a different life, even when she was slut dropping to heavy bass and a killer dance melody? lmao 0 There's things I wanna say to you, but I'll just let you live Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
