Random Lana Discussion Thread

I was reading this old British Vogue interview bit with Lana from October 2011 where she was asked about Video Games being used in many fashion shows and look what she said:

Quote

"I had no idea about the fashion shows," she told us. "But I think they chose Video Games because it embodies summertime sadness. Fashion is inspired by youth and nostalgia and draws inspiration from the best of the past. I think both the song and the collections touch on the light and the dark side of life."

 

This was the very first mention of "Summertime Sadness" but as a 'description', she thinks that Video Games embodies summertime sadness. That's a really awesome connection between these! I loved her answer!

Lana singing “I Luv It” still feels like a fever dream.

August and fall of 2019 were one of the best times for me to be a Lana fan. I mean, we got an amazing teaser for NFR, several songs and a then an album, which I fell in love with instantly. She performed Daddy Issues, Wicked Game and Tomorrow never came on tour, which felt absolutely surreal because I love these songs and I could only dream that she would perform them. And the fact that she sang with Zella Day on one stage?? It’s still crazy to me. It was an amazing time to be her fan.

i know this thread is going to get deleted but i need people to know i just found out (and hope im not the last to) psycho lifeguard isn't one title because she said ocean blvd original title had SIX titles and psycho lifeguard being together would only make it five titles

 

Ocean Blvd, Pearl, Watch Me On, Ring A Bell, Psycho, Lifeguard

[Beautiful Loser 49,583]

I thought it had all those words as one title and that’s why Neil said she’s crazy for considering it?

Quote

At first, the title was definitely going to be Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd, and then I fucking panicked and I went to Neil’s house and said, “I know this is fucked up, but I’ve changed the title. It’s going to now be called, ‘Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd Pearl Watch Me on Ring a Bell Psycho Lifeguard.’” He was like, “What the fuck?” I was like, “I’m not telling anyone. Just mock it up.” He mocked it up, but we realized that maybe it was a bit much to have six titles in one.

no that’s not what she means. She isn’t saying that the album was just ONE of those, she means that the album is ALL of those but psycho and lifeguard are two separate entities and not one title. It’s not Psycho Lifeguard it’s Psycho and Lifeguard

nvm im a crackhead 

[inthezodiac 167]

i think it’s just an alternative lyric and the six songs in one title is more of a formal context

Actually the very first mention of summertime sadness was august 5/6 2011! When Lana tweeted:

 

Kiss Me Hard Before You Go - Summertime Sadness.

I Just Wanted You To Know - That baby You The Best.

 

and on the same month - Aug 2011 (i forgot what date exactly) she changed one of the tags for Video Games mv to “SUMMERTIME SADNESS”

I could imagine her going into politics one day, and she would probably continue to write music even as president
