Norman Fucking Rockwell - Post-Release Discussion Thread + Poll

By y'all I meant the forum. Goddamn. Not you guys. 

 

Still, I don't like when people assume that I'm part of a group that does this. As someone that's been relentlessly taunt with that term growing up I must say I think that it's a bit tasteless to suggest that, or use that term to make a point. But that's just my two cents.

Oh my god, literally everything I'm saying is a problem now  I'm sorry. I'm out unless anyone needs me.

This. I wish we had more piano covers to listen to. So beautiful

 

Here's to hoping the instrumentals are on their way. I want to run down a staircase to bartender.

[Elle 114,449]

Everybody, STOP. Don't make me lock this thread. I'll be having a chat with some of the people involved here, but this needs to stop.

Oh yeah those 2 accounts that do fakes, they're not actually that bad imo but you can definitely tell they're fakes   still pleasant to listen to though. I'm hoping for some orchestral versions to be made, esp bartender and cinnamon girl

listening to NFR! in full for the first time in awhile... the POWER this album has is INCREDIBLE.

this thread is like the bad side of town that your mum tells you not to go to because of all the crime. mummy would rather you visit a safe neighbourhood like song vs. song or the art of the day thread.

Terrence Loves You

Terrance Loves You is twilight and dusk. When you're looking at the moon. It's not a good morning song for me

[Foxglove 2,266]

 Y'all yell f*g to each other all day and no one gives a shit.

 

preface: i don't think i've ever heretofore used that word on here, and if i have it was definitely not in a derogatory way.  also, this post is NFR related due to the way Lana's churchgoing has highlighted homophobia from a gay music icon.

 

point: "Faggot" is literally the only word in the English language that means "gay man."  Tho most indigenous societies held esteemed roles and a variety of terms for various sexes / sexualities / genders / etc, queerness is now seen as something degrading and insulting - something to be ashamed of. Terminology to describe queerness has systematically been attacked and erased throughout the spread of patriarchy across the world.  And the very few remaining terms are deemed slurs.  "Fag" means "gay man."  I am that.  The word describes me accurately.  If anyone is allowed to use that term, I believe I should be.  The only reason it would be seen as bad is if people think being what the word describes is something to be insulted by.  It is not.  There is nothing wrong with being queer or gay or trans or whatever.  We need more language to describe these things, not less.  Queerness should not be erased or censored.  We should not be forced to hide, to be ignored, to pretend we are not the reality of what we are.

 

In Lana's song "Love Song" , she sings "is it safe, is it safe, to just be who we are?" .. I must ask, who can feel this sentiment more than queer individuals?  LGBTQIA+ people are routinely killed around the world just for "who we are."  Literally murdered.  Also violently attacked, legally discriminated against, prevented from securing adequate employment and housing, kept in poverty at disproportionately higher rates than straight people.  This issue is not some offhand comment that can be thrown out and dismissed without a true look at what's really going on.  Particularly on Lanaboards when Lana attends a church that supports conversion therapy, her friends of choice post photos at Hotels owned by world leaders who quite literally legally sanction the murder of gay people, when her fanbase has a huge amount of queer people, and a huge amount of specifically gay men who relate to her music and artistic concepts.  If users here acknowledging the existence of gay men is more offensive than these other things going on in the world that are routinely swept out of sight, like wtf.  if mods censoring users / signing off on personal attacks on users here is just par for the course, like wtf.

 

My question is this:  can i just get fucking banned already?  thank you.

Friendly reminder that this album is stunning, and those who think otherwise are missing the point.

Wondering why people think this has some of her best lyrics....... dropped a pin to my parking spot , I’m assuming where she parked the truck she just bought in the middle of the night . Also the audacity to say kanye west is blonde and gone and then date a cop
