Dear user,

 

I am not a child to fight random internet forum members. 

I stated my opinion and you can like it or not.

 

but please DO NOT quote me with such childish suggestions as fight me & co. as they are beyond silly to me. 

 

Thank you

and have a great week-end.

Look at his user name. It was a joke. Maybe you should start to take things less serious, starting with yourself.

Just do it. Just do it - don't wait!

does anybody else have a few odd lyrics they wish they could alter on NFR??? i mean i know lana is the artist and i'm merely the listener  :hooker:  but there's a few little things i really wish i could alter

 

like in HTD: "you just crack another beer and pretend that you're still here" - the song is all about escapism and disappearing, so wouldn't it make more sense for the lyrics to be "you just crack another beer and pretend that you're not here"?

 

 

 

Because that's the idea behind that verse. He pretends he's here for her, but he really isn't.

 

She meets him and tells him about her problems, she appreciates the way he takes her serious and listens to what she has to say. But he's not REALLY going to be there if she needs him, he just comforts her and acts as if he would help her through her struggle. They probably once were that close but by now, their friendship has started to fade. And that's how he disappears from her life - step by step.


Just do it. Just do it - don't wait!

A lot of fans seem to put LFL at the bottom when it comes to ranking her title tracks... Meanwhile I used one of the lines from the song as my college yearbook quote

 

Impecable taste sis!

I wish she had came for one of the ugly male reviewers that wrote much shorter and obviously more hateful articles than Ann Powers with all of her boring friends coming out to defend her. Both that article and the more hateful ones avoid talking about the actual music as much as possible (which... why be a music reviewer... if you'd rather be an stanford-reject celebrity reviewer) but Power's 'review' was much more meandering and not as misogynistic. I hate that it's being framed like she's a child- we all know she's a sucker for positive attention, but who isn't? But she should have thrown a different reviewer under the spotlight.

apart from the lyrics, is there any other difference between the demo & final version of BAR?

 

(also I'd appreciate if someone links me to the demo in the highest quality)

Yeah, I'm curious about this too. Has anyone synched them or anything to see how much of the production or vocals have changed? Are the new lyrics just punch-ins (sloppy or otherwise)?

I think some HTD-esque bells have been added or something
