I think most likely if she were even to perform, The Greatest would be the most impactful song imo 

 

Me too but can she sing it live? There's a lot of high notes on there.

I had to listen to the song again n I see what u mean. Don't wanna get all technical but I think she could pull it off, maybe alter the song structure a bit, I think bc it's breathy, but the transition from the pre-chorus to the chorus might b a bit taxing mm

This meme is really popular in Brazil rn so I decided to make a Lana version bc I can't believe she won't perform at the grammys like wtf

Hope remains some of Lana's best writing of all time

The highest note she has to hit is a brief C5... This song would eventually be hard because of the phrasing, not because there are high notes

your profile photo made me think that the valerie legend had been resurrected

[cherryblossoms]

Lmao I’m reading some negative reviews on RateYourMusic and it’s so funny seeing people still get so caught up in their preconceived notions about Lana and her image rather than letting the music speak for itself.

I swear some of these people will not give her a break until she physically transforms into Joni Mitchell herself

[Make me your Dream Life]

um. it's been a while. so like what's new ? 

[Cacciatore]

Fuck It I Love You is THAT song 

[Trash Magic]

Would have been really cool if Lana professionally recorded the US leg of the tour and released a live compilation of all her duets with the people who opened for her.

 

 

This is just so fucking good!!!!! Probably the most Lana sounding song I have EVER heard because it is not actually inspired by her or trying to sound like something she'd make at all, the artists just have really similar natural inclinations.

ok guys nevermind. It was fake. Going back to watch The Crown.

Every day I wake up and am depressed that "in your cock, in your cock, in your cockpit" was a fake lyric.

cuts on his face cuz he fucked too hard

I’m genuinely conflicted as to which version of ‘The Next Best American Record’ that I like best. Initially I hated that the lyrics were changed, but now I appreciate it just as much as the demo, but for different reasons... 

 

I’ve said it time and time and time again, this album is such an experience.. one that I listen to almost every day and seem to never tire of.

Norman Fucking Rockwell is still that album

Jack being the kind of person who dates Lena Dunham for six years was definitely reflected in the production of this record

Why didn't I think of writing that before...

[Make me your Dream Life]

so I went to a driving range the other day. this album's good for that too. the title track, n love song. htd? the calmer side of the record. the calm? wow wow wow wow.

I think, maybe w anyone else too? idk I guess I got paranoid bc of the tensions earlier this year. now a bio virus scare. it kinda makes me wanna hold tight to what's important to me. more importantly to what's left. The Greatest seems to mean so much more than just a love song. I think I'm Coachella'ing a little bit. but. does anyone kinda feel like the end of the world just keeps getting closer? 

ah I might be overthinking again but. hm tldr; this record's great for listening to what feels like the ending of things. it's a nice friendly guide.
