Saw this on Twitter, does anyone know what this is?

It says it’s a screening of her set at the Camden Roundhouse in London in 2012 and other “live gems”—so it seems this is simply a special viewing of her performance at the iTunes Festival in September 2012 and other previously recorded performances!

Thanks, I didn't know that it was the iTunes Festival performance. I wonder if they have other unseen live recordings of her.

Not Lana created a highlight reel called I'm so random when someone in LB talked about how random she is not so long ago

So I’ve been listening to some of the Xanadu soundtrack lately and am just wondering how big an inspo these tracks were on Lana-I mean these lyrics are in ride…

 

I hear lanas falsetto here

I love how Lana's music goes viral on Tiktok every single month and how her older music is nowhere near irrelevant even years later. She doesn't need scandals nor marketing strategies for people to listen to her. There was also a trend among my IG friends to post a story with 6 favorite artists/bands and I swear that 9/10 people had Lana. 

 

She's already starting to become timeless. I feel like song like Ride came out 4 years ago while it was released the same year as Starships and Call Me Maybe. The other two songs are only listened for the sake of nostalgia by millennials and older gen z while Ride is regularly listened by new younger fans.

I think one of the reasons (other than of course being great music) is that it sounds so timeless that it doesn't feel dated at all even 10 years later. The perfect blend of pop and classic

Excluding some outliers her music is aging extremely well and it's showing 

 

I also love the fact that it's not only BTD getting popular again, NFR and UV are doing great too and even Chemtrails and BB had their moments with the title track and Dealer.

Lana's a living legend

I've been so bored on winter break that I started reading a thesis on Lana's celebrity status. It's super interesting and made me want to take my Music subject at the teacher-training college I go to so I can write about her but like... I will be teaching English to elementary school children...  

Me to my students: when she says my pussy tastes like Pepsi cola she's referencing the American dream by putting herself in the light of consuming...

This is giving me the same energy as Marina singing Teen Idle to those kids at a school

just because she inserted their names during performances doesn't mean that that's the lyric in the album version of the song.

I don’t know if I’m crazy or what but I’ve always heard “Amy” in the studio version. “For A-  …  -my and for…”

 

 

edit: I’m not crazy. She probably sang the lyric “forAmyand for Whitney” without pausing and they had to cut the vocals like that.

no but you should save that idea for an another opportunity or project for sure, because that would be such a serve

That and also her writing wasn't following trends and was singing about stuff that was sung 60 years ago. Everyone who sang about hashtags, selfies and MySpace looks like a clown now. You can only spot trends in her early music videos but that's unavoidable plus the clothes weren't cringy micro trends. 

I feel like NFR was the first to receive attention on Tiktok but UV, especially West Coast, went viral multiple times.

My younger brother, who’s always hated Lana’s music, has been blasting West Coast, Off to the Races and Dealer back to back non-stop for several days now. 

 

I think I’ve finally broken him, I’m so proud

Yes!!! Your brother has taste 

[Venice Jesus Whore 4,471]

As much as I was disappointed with Chemtrails and BB as their own separate projects, I will say I’ve been able to make a playlist out of my favorite songs for them that does fill a void in my Lana listening universe that otherwise wasn’t filled. Mainly it’s calm, intimate, gentle, lowkey, melancholic songs that aren’t as intense as her other music. It feels like a modern more elaborate version of Sirens, which was my calm Lana album before these two.
