wildsummer 661 Posted June 27 something i’ve always wondered - was the entire btd album written before the release of video games? or did it come after video games became popular? if it was already written, radio was a crazy manifestation lol 2 Quote if i wasn’t so fucked up, i think i’d fuck you all the time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only songs written before 2011 are: •Million Dollar Man (aug.2010) • Lolita (Jun.2010) •Diet Mountain Dew (2009) 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That tracks, because Video Games went viral a while before the album was released so she would have had enough time to work it in there. I think the song is more about Lana finally feeling vindicated with her newfound success and expressing that in a tongue & cheek way - Interscope did a great job launching her, she was making some of legendary music that would shape generations, and things were just finally on the up for her. RADIO is one of her best songs of all time and I'm so happy that all these years later it is still one of the most beloved songs on the album. It was always a masterpiece! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
