@lili Do you think you could update the original post with a list of people who are interested to join, and in which role(s)? Just to get an overview. :3

If it ends up terrible we can either hide it and never speak about it again or release it into the world without telling where it's from. A mysterious work with no author.

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 

 

 

YES. I need all of these. I'm all here for the ones in bold the most. So many themes/motifs to choose from... I think we lowkey can do more than one song fr 

[Make me your Dream Life 87,789]

something to get the ball rolling. 

i think i've seen my baby gone away, tired driveway, it's comin back to me
everytime he goes, he don't tell me, where he's goin for how long, and if he'll stay 

but i know (i know *backing vocals*) he's the one for me 
i trace the frame, of his photo on my heart shaped locket that he gave me 

is it wrong that I keep (hmmmm *backing vocals*) here 
cus it's been falling away, and I, cant. take, it. 

chorus: 
i do my best, dowhatican 
nothing ever changes, is there a reason? 

he told me that, but I know 
that it's all just memory, there's nothing here 

something something something.

I'm down! I mean, I'm working on my own record as well but I wouldn't mind contribute to some tracks if this project actually ends up being an album

Do you remember these times when we had heaven on earth

We met in this old city two winters ago

Kissing on the background with cars driving in slow-motion

Keeping my hands in your jacket pockets

[Dark Angel 202,185]

i'll never let this love die

wherever we go

way back at the mobile home

or the chateau marmont

I feel like we need a lyric about wanting to leave as well, it's something she's been singing about since LFL.

I want to leave, I'll probably stay another year (Heroin)
I miss New York, and I miss the music (The greatest)
I left Berkeley, out of city, out of mind // I left San Francisco (Dance till we die)

etc

couldn't leave the city, it's wrapped around my wrists like ivy

 

let's drive off in your white car, we could leave this little town

i'll wear roses in my hair, so you'll know i'm always down

[PatentLeatherDoOver 25,782]

omg imagine we make an entire record & include a monologue like in the Ride music video this is one of the best threads ever imo such a cool concept!!!

If we do a monologue I have SO many ideas is there a Lana voice AI we could get to read it?

We should include a variation of the iconic Mary (Scared Of Me) lyrics

spirits whispering in my ear

feeling afraid at the chateau

but not him, he's a star

even if it's all from a-far
