She actually spent a couple months with a host family in Spain during high school if I remember correctly.

Some mixed feedback on the grants has me so curious.

some saying a top ten Lana song and some saying it’s fine

Definitely not a top 10 at all. I prefer all the other songs but the last 2-3 minutes are a godly and religious experience that will take you places

I totally forgot about Sza, what's funny is that I'm listening to SOS rn.

 

that's very likely to happen now that I think about it.

wow I am totally speechless, I will say more once I have had time to process it but what an incredible song. I almost feel like it's too personal, like reading a diary we weren't meant to see. What a bold and brave and STUNNING song, and so experimental with the lack of structure and stream of consciousness storytelling. It's feels like a massive novel distilled into a song 

 

Both an absolutely devastating exploration of grief and trauma and an empowering love letter to the perseverance of the soul

 

Just got home from work and saw this 

 

Spoiler

I'm so, so happy you like it! I feel the same exact way, "a diary we aren't supposed to be reading" is a perfect description  I love it so much!!! It's so...existential and gut wrenching, yet hopeful at the same time.

the lyrics to fingertips are so beautiful  but the fact that she made it into a wordy, trailing, hard-to-follow song instead of a poem especially with terrible boring drew erickson production ruins the entire thing...

someone on review platforms said it's worse than bluebanister and the grants is a skip bad for them

 

 

 

Spoiler

Nonsense. Ocean Boulevard, AW and Grandfather are better than anything on BB. Antonoff and Hermosa are so much better than the group of BB producers. John Baptiste interlude beats the Trio as far as interludes go.

 

But, I can understand how someone would be a little disappointed with Sweet, The Grants, Fingertips and and Judah Smith interlude.

mark my words, its what's going to happen. On the bright side, Lana still has a chance though in other categories bc they're nominated for different genres

GET OFF !!! YOU'RE WRONG !!!!

 

[takeyourselftosleep 1,485]

we're so lucky that she's not only maintained a consistent stream of work over the past decade but that she's continually evolving and improving as an artist (with the exception of BB, ily girl but you're the ugly duckling xx) I really hope she continues to garner respect and maybe even get AOTY for Ocean Blvd, but I'm not holding my breath.

Spoiler

 

Also before the Ritalin wears off I need to say... I think The Grants is evidence of her really doing the work on herself and finding happiness and inner peace. After her laptop was stolen, she said on the livestream "even if all I have left is my innermost thoughts..." because not only has she been commodified/made fun of and unfairly criticised for years, she's also had her house broken into, dealt with stalkers and had her property/poetry book/video camera stolen etc

To me, this song is her saying "well, I still have my innermost thoughts, and that's what I'm taking with me; the memory of my sisters first born child, my grandmother, etc etc."

 

Ok thats all, my boss is hassling me, bye.
