LanaBoards Writing a Song for Lana Project

Recommended Posts

EDIT: Okay, so this started with the idea of what we could come up with if we tried to write a Lana song ourselves. Due to the stressful nature of anticipating the new album, we thought this could be entertaining. We thought of @takeitdoen and @Clampigirl as singers if they would be willing to, of course. @Glitter Boy volunteered to produce, and we would like to see @plastiscguy on the production team as well if he's down for it. I volunteered to help with the lyrics and would like some collaborators! @BlueINK mentioned they want to be in charge of the visuals team aaand here are some lyrical themes suggested by the one and only @Clampigirl:

 

 

Classic Lana themes:

  • Blue everything
  • Dresses: white, red, black
  • Summerrrrr
  • or the end of summerrrrr
  • Introspective thoughts on a perfectly ordinary day
  • Lana being smarter than the dude she's dating but he doesn't know she has him figured out
  • Sad love

 

Anyone is much welcome to participate and offer opinions!

 

 

Wooooow!!!, sounds amazing, I would love to contribute in some way :yesnod:

Woah, this is such a cool idea! I’d love to help if there are spots available!
 

I’m not really sure where I would be needed most, but I really enjoy writing and making melodies!
 

Although I’m mostly familiar with piano and have a string setting on it as well, I’m in the process of learning how to play my acoustic and electric guitars, so just let me know :)

It's interesting to think about the kind of vibe chosen for this project cause if we opt for a BB/COCC sound, we'd have a song that is heavily piano (and basically the same 4 chords throughout) and the lyricism is different than the rest of her catalogue, a wordy, more poetry-ish style :oopna2:

Okay, with themes suggested in the original post, could you guys add more ideas so I can pile them in one place and we can have a lyrical theme vote? 

I think we definitely need a story to build from. 

no offense to anyone but if we want a cheesy song i'll look over stuff but don't wanna be credited for it if it's really bad,

maybe we can do 2?

i personally think we should go for a born to die/paradise sound since that's her most recognizable, anything atmospheric and lucious (as long as our "producers" can handle that task lol)

Should we put "iphone" "ipad" / any apple devices in her lyrics?

Here are some random lyrical motifs I thought I’d add as possibilities (hopefully they haven’t been mentioned yet lol): 

 

-Religious parallels

-Poet/poetry reference 

-Ultra-specific location for the setting lol

-Fire/the sun/stars/space

-Americana seen through a dark lens 

-Apocalyptic undertones 

-Existential/reflective themes
