when we imagine a candy necklace, we probably think first of

 

but candy also exists in this form

which resembles diamonds

 

I think "candy necklace" is simply a metaphor for "diamond necklace"

as we can see in the video preview

it also makes sense with the song lyrics

rockefeller = rich person

and she often sang about how much she likes diamonds

 

this is a good interpretation. actually my husband's first assumption was that candy necklaces were diamond necklaces so it'd be funny if he was right

This has quickly become one of my favorites of her ballads. It's so.... sadly perfect. Perfectly said, perfectly written. Ugh

It has 100% jumped into my Top 10

I think this is one of her best songs ever…it’s dramatic, it’s dark, it’s soulful. And the video adds so many more layers to it

Love Candy Necklace. So dark and luxurious. A real work of art, like Lana herself 👑.

About a year since this was released and this song couldn't be aging better. What a beautiful, hypnotysing and timeless track. Already a classic.

Lana references "Can I Kick It?" by A Tribe Called Quest in this song, and what's really interesting is that this song samples "Walk On the Wild Side" by Lou Reed, who is somebody Lana loves. Even though in her more recent albums she's leaned more towards Joni Mitchell than Lou Reed, I'm happy that there's still this connection.

It sounds kind of like “‘cause of those candy necklaces, right” to me, but her lack of enunciation is legendary

Yes, she definitely says that, I hear it 100% 

[Fuck Our Generation 755]

This song is growing on me recently. I was thinking that candy on necklace might appear beautiful and cute but it can not actually restrain itself and it will be dissolved gradually. So by that she means that a relationship might end if its foundation is not stable. Well I don't know it is just my interpretation and this is what I'm thinking when I listen to it.

i still feel like this song used to say "broken promises" at some point, nobody can tell me different literally "i'm obsessed with his broken promises" makes so much more sense lmao
