there's multiple tweets from that account that look like lyrics, some of them were (such as the super movie & ruby tuesday lyrics) so i'd say it's possible!

WOW I had an entire dream about how we were all trying to solve the mysteries of Arcadia on here and basically, I order at McDonald's and the bag says "Arcadia" on it and I freak out in the dream, realizing that all along it was some secret key to ordering the right stuff at McDick's

I remember reading around Q4TC era that people were mad about Lana Del Rey as a stage name because it's.. fetishizing? racist? or whatever. I find nothing racist about that because her stage name does sound more catchy than Elizabeth Grant. It's show business. For example, people in my Slavic country sometimes have a stage names that sounds more English, Latin or Italian like Teodora -> Tea, Andjela -> Angellina. Idk why they do that because they're not trying to make it internationally but that happens in other languages and people have a reason for it. I would do the same in their shoes because I don't have a catchy name either.

I think that some people got mad because she said that it sounded exotic. I don't think that exotic have a bad meaning, but I'm not american so I cannot speak for them

 

I found this American article that explains why it's wrong: https://www.thelamron.com/posts/2018/11/8/exotic-is-offensive-wrongly-objectifies-non-white-people

 

But I don't know if this applies to other countries that use the same word

For Spanish speakers:

 

This youtuber does amazing videos about Lana's albums and evolution as an artist. She explains the themes of Born To Die and Ultraviolence, among other things, and it made me realize things about songs that I have listening for years now...

 

Highly recommend watching her videos!

This is great. Thanks for sharing!

just thinking about how her looks for the HM UO signings/listening parties are my absolute fav...the dark curls, the navy/red/white color scheme

I've heard about that but the point is that Lana's image couldn't be more white American and there's nothing exotic about it except her name. Her image literally screams "I've never vacationed outside of America". Even if she went by Svetlana and Anastasia I wouldn't care less because it's not like she's pretending she's a different ethnicity like Bhad Bhabie and other trailer trash.

Why? I was in middle school so I have no idea. What I know that the early to mid 2010s were peak of alt pop and alt rock (besides the 90s).

I wish we knew more about her life before fame. Like her whole life before BTD release. I know I have no right to that info obviously but I want it so bad tbh.

I usually don't give a shit about celebrities' past but Lana is one of those who definitely have an interesting past. I imagine her being like Serena Van Der Woodsen in her New York and boarding school days based on what she describes herself in Carmen etc.

Hey guys! I’m craving an album with strong piano and guitar elements! Can somebody recommend something (Would prefer something older but latest stuff is okay as well)?

 Or something in the vein of O Children by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. 
 

Lana’s gonna release BB sooner if you’ll help me.
