LanaBoards Writing a Song for Lana Project

[Rorman Nockwell 56,964]

Is it meant to be a serious song or a piss-take?

I'm only good at the latter

Spoiler

@WilshireBoulevard and I have already written about 20 songs in our "career" as fake lyricists

I'm goddamn melancholic, goddamn dreamer

 

Pink flamingos are bathing in aquamarine waves

Just like we jumped in old-fashioned swimsuits

That 1972 Whisky on my tongue to forget

 

I could give you my life and breathe

even we didn't know each other very well

I miss you so much that I hate it

 

I've always fallen in love in wrong time and place

I forgave people who drowned me down

I was your medicine, you were deadly poison

Cocaine fields and the sea of vodka weren't that intoxicating

 

Why do i have to go through everything so fucking emotional

Maybe I'm judging myself too brutal

Maybe I'm too sadistic and masochist

Finding alibi and explanation why is no other way

Love this!

 

Also I keep updating the original post people, make sure to check it out. I thought once we pile up enough ideas and narrow them down, we can move to the voting process if that's okay with you!!

Serious but also meant to be fun. Not a parody, though, that is our other project together “That Snow Book” remember?

Absolutely down to do anything that requires typography

piss-takes or not, the poems you and @lili write in your status updates are iconic and they actually sound like Lana so we'd love to have you here

Are we going to mention a celebrity? How do you feel about it? (Nikki Lane is not a celebrity)

[Gravitate 3,921]

I have no talent to contribute but just wanted to say how much I love this idea and it looks promising so far! I can't wait to hear the finished product!! This community is so talented, I'll be cheering y'all on

Of course, you have it! Everybody does in some way. Even a word, a comment, a small feedback is appreciated! Thank you! ♥️

Let's make this 203 pages long and then scrap it with no explanation

It's Lana, after all

[SoftwareUpgrade 19,357]

I would request the word "Gate" to be included in the piece, as a nod to Lanaboards and its many gates (ChickenGate, GlitterGate, CrazyGate, etc)

Should we do an “era” vote in terms of sound so we can have a base from which we can move? How should we proceed? Ideas?

somebody classically "lana" such as marilyn, elvis, jim morrison, axl rose, or janis joplin

i vote for born to die/paradise era sound!

[palemoonbaby 15,270]

idea for sound: dreamy, dark indie electro-touched song with strings, violins

 

intro: angelic, with strings

 

1st verse, pre-chorus: dreamy, spacey and really atmospheric

 

1st chorus: the same but with strings and ends with beat slowly starting

 

2nd verse, pre-chorus: electro beat entered, interesting production, still dreamy but more intense and kinda dark

 

2nd chorus: kinda anthemic, more energy but still we crying, drums showing up, vocal layers

 

bridge and last chorus: big climax, baroque strong orchestra, nervous strings, breathtaking

 

outro: same as intro

I always loved the word melancholia , maybe you guys can do your magic and incorporate it in the song some way 

As for the instrumentation , it would be awesome to have electric guitars in the song
