Lana getting dragged again by French medias https://www.brain-magazine.fr/article/brainorama/55527-5-astuces-pour-savoir-si-vous-etes-atteint-de-narcolepsie-ou-si-vous-ecoutez-le-dernier-Lana-del-Rey

Not surprised honestly. I feel like Lana was always really well received by French media. Maybe because she has made such a big aesthetic and sonic change, they fell out of love.

America is so obsessed with originality over everything, where as I think in most European countries appreciate authenticity. I think doing what’s authentic is not always the most original thing. (I’m talking out my ass though.....)

California has the weakest chorus on the album in my opinion. I’m surprised it’s the fan favorite.

*FIILY

[Hundred Dollar Bill 21,805]

*FIILY

Oh no baby what is you doing??? FIILY is a standout 10/10 masterpiece that, looking at the poll, is definitely not a fan favorite on NFR! Also her vocals sound beautiful on the chorus of FIILY - California can’t relate!

[Terrence Loves Me 72,696]

We could try but she'll probably just say the same thing before "yeah i've wrote parts of it, and i wanna release it sometime next year so look out for it kids xo"

California has the weakest chorus on the album in my opinion. I’m surprised it’s the fan favorite.

ummmm, ya'll hear sumn? bells anyone?

[WildMustang 14,759]

Her descriptions on albums are terrible so I prefer not knowing at all

[Chicken Parmesan 316]

i can see why people think the california chorus has weak lyrics, theyre maybe not super deep at face value. but they hit really hard for me, and i think i get the place lana is coming from. it sounds like to me shes basically saying "if you take me back, i can look past everything youve done and we can do anything you want" ie throw parties. sounds like shes almost begging for him back and reasoning with him

[love deluxe 8,861]

california is a genius song and that's that on that

[HoneymoonSwan 3,106]

has anyone received their UO vinyl yet? is the hideous version of FI,ILY on there? 

[Terrence Loves Me 72,696]

Ugh, this is why this song hits me extra hard I just imagine it being sung from the opposite point of view, which relates to the current status of my life x

[HoneymoonSwan 3,106]

yep

ugh, how depressing! 

[DEMONDELREY 2,677]

Melon Fanta is going to give Lana a higher rating than Tool and that’s hot
