the covid line is hilarious because i never really gave a fuck about it either, its 2023 lets move on

 

I mean i gave a fuck about it, i'm a doctor so i was extra involved with it, but there's nothing disrespectful or wrong about the lyric. Yeah it was a hard time, but we also had to live through it and manage, of course i would be kissing my boyfriend lol. Those were just the times, the world was burning and yet you get home and have to shut it off for a bit. Nothing wrong about that or singing about it.

 

And if it troubles you, simply don't listen to it.

Spoiler

My boyfriend got COVID 

 

[MJx 443]

it honestly is so interesting how some of you are so defensive of anything she says/does, when she wasn't even attacked/judged - i just stated that i, PERSONALLY, feel uneasy because of the line and i have a good reason for that . it's so weird being quoted on that with responses telling me that im wrong for it, like..? i am sure that many people would feel weird in such a situation, rightfully so. is it the worst thing to say in a song? no. is it insensitive in a way? i sure do think so.

[Golden Hour 5,244]

Spoiler

I interpreted the covid line as like, "welp my boyfriend tested positive so I probably have it too but whatever at least we're together" 

 

Not that she doesn't care about covid, but rather that she doesn't mind getting it since she'd stay home with him. Either way, those who get mad about it will get mad and forget about it in days.

So the whistle is actually a COVID particle projectile launcher to help spread it around 

 

[Vulgar 538]

Lemme put my hands on your knees, i’m COVID 19

[lanasozempicpen 3,486]

i didnt think the post of the peppers lyrics would be discussed for a few pages.

i dont think the line is wrong in any way, but i do question her saying something like that knowing how sensitive some people could be to the topic.

lana does questionable things that sometimes will get the medias attention (QFTC, mesh mask, VFR covid lyric, could go on).

while i think these things dont really mean much, it does effect her publicity to a degree.

Right.

Perhaps we can twist this and say that her blasé reference to covid is actually social commentary and satire on how people treated the virus at its peak 

[ultrabanisters 45,983]

she wrote it on this day i fear

But why would someone be sensitive to it? Was there outcry over the "sick as c-c-cancer" line?

@MJx explained his perspective perfectly if you read his posts.

- because people have died

 

Was there outcry over the "sick as c-c-cancer" line?

- yes stan twiter took that for a twirl

Oh no, I’m so sorry to hear that!! I hope you find something new soon. ❤️

[Thats why they call me Dita 10,264]

She just be outright singing things that some of us do/think ourselves.. but would never actually say because.. you know.. tact 

there will have been many covid regulation violations by many in this board, but we ain’t gotta talk about it

Girl please, you run around like a butthurt kid everytime someone doesn't call Fingertips the greatest song of all time.

 

If you find something insensitive because of your own personal experiences, then don't listen. It really is as simple as that. You can obviously express it, but don't expect us to just dismiss Lana's songs and intentions because of that
