Speaking of music videos, I'll never get over the unprofessionalism and the plainness of the White Dress MV which is a disrespect to the song imo

White Dress is one of Lana's most gorgeous videos. It is pure art, period. It is a delicate and stripped back song. Having some huge production music video would defeat the purpose, she's literally singing about her life before she had wealth and fame and a big production budget. The video is meditative and nostalgic just like the song is. 

COCC MV on the other hand is corny. I love the song, but the video is just too camp. It's not a goofy pop song, so I don't know why they gave it a goofy video. Just the way they did the costuming, props, set design, cheap looking Instagram filters and cheesy special effects and editing. It all just feels very staged and childish. It just feels very 2010 pop music video, like Lana's attempt at a Katy Perry video. It's like they were going for a big production but on a tight budget, it didn't work out.

I do want one or more videos this era, but its not really essential to me. I like the videos she did in NFR era like FIILY, The Greatest and Doin Time. These videos have nice cinematography and look expensive but without being over the top. They just have a nice polished look that fit the moods of their songs. I would also be fine with some home made videos too, those ones are cute and fit her more stripped back and acoustic songs.

I really agree at the "White Dress" M/V segment - for me, this video is one of the most beautiful & aesthetic pleasing that i've seen from her.

The only thing that bugs me is (which is also a shame) that her arm was accidently broken while filming this MV. I know she wanted to rollerblade the f out of these beautiful sceneries in tne MV by HERSELF. Imagine if the accident didnt happen, this MV really did have a potential to be even more than what it is now. But regardless, I love the color palette of the visual (soft, pastel violet sky) & i love every second whenever the sunset is on screen, the stunt performer did what she had to do (in fact, this MV even inspired me to go buy a pair of rollerblades & practice this shit). And I think y'all didnt appreciate the MV for "White Dress" enough because the visual, the sceneries they filmed is literally in sync with how the song actually sounds - like, they literally o-hand-in-hand so well.

 

I disagree on what u said about COCC mv tho

Hello fellow Lana Stans, I'm new to LanaBoards. I'm looking for up to date files of all Lana's unreleased music. The only thing I can find on here is a link from 2017 that doesn't work anymore. Can anyone help? The higher the quality the better. Thanks!

I feel so ignorant because I don’t like Lana’s poetry. I just don't get the hype around poetry in general. If they were lyrics, I’d love them but a poem to my simple mind seems like a bit of nothing. I can appreciate the skill but it’s never once interested me

Don't worry, I think I've read her poems only a few times

ironically i feel like her song lyrics are way more poetic & satisfying to read than her actual poetry

Never seen the beauty of rhymes, of meters or of building worlds with just a few words?

I love Florence & Lana’s poetry books - But yeah I’m not the biggest on the genre either…

tbh I don't like poetry in general too but as for lana's book I see it as stories written by her and about her so that's why it's interesting to me. I do love the audiobook a lot so in terms of consuming the book I'm streaming it more than actually reading it

like @Surf Noir said, her lyrics are more poetic and satisfying to read

 

edit: I really want BTIG and praying there'll be an audiobook as well

I think MTWBT,  Freak [Like Me] and, TBD were some of the first. But on the rest, I’m not so sure.
