Random Lana Discussion Thread

just a little something.. 

 

I'm sure we're all struggling our way through this crisis but music and Lana are some of many things that keep us positive. 

 

I found this performance of video games from 2011 that isn't on youtube so is probably quite unknown but I think is one of her best - so clear and beautiful. 

Made me so sad to listen/watch, very nostalgic  :poordat:

I remember staying up to catch this on TV and being so shocked at seeing her in a live setting for the first time ever :defeated:

What is actually "the greatest loss" in the song? Her ambition, her lover?

I love these sorts of questions. 

 

First listen, I attributed it to a lover. But when I listen to it a lot more solemnly. it feels like, a death of a dream?

 

losing the simplicity of life, walking thru that door, and never being able to go back. missing how everything was, and not appreciating it all enough.

don't know if this like common knowledge but found this rap song from 2011 called "last day alive" by daniel jordan that uses the same instrumental as daytona meth/hollywood movie/party girl

thought it was kinda cool, i wonder if she got the instrumental from a royalty free beats website or something since this song doesn't have any producer credits either. maybe then the other laptop demos that we don't know the producers of have their instrumentals floating around somewhere online  :flutter:

I have to live with the fact that HM and NFR don't have outtakes :poordat:

As for as I know there are some NFR! outtakes which sounding more like Lust for Life the title track but in the end, there were more songs in an "acoustic vein", so those more girl-group sounding songs didn't make the cut. But it is unknown how many outtakes from NFR! exists

 

Radio 107.7 The End, Seattle, October 4th(?):

"Was anything left behind?"

"Yessss ... like, there were some real big like 60s shangri las pop stuff kinda like the title track of my last album, Lust for Life ... which I was trying to do like, a bit of a girl group sound ... I thought it was either gonna go kinda like hip-hop girl group or, like, something a little more acoustic. And in the end, there were just more songs that were like that. And I think the next album, whatever that ends up being, will still be more in this realm 'cos I'm having so much fun."

 

 

Found this at the WHF timeline made by @@Clampigirl (thank you for doing the timeline!!)

"Swan Song. It’s on my album Honeymoon. It’s the antithesis of hopefulness. It’s about trying to find beauty in giving up. If I had my way, I would continue to persist in all areas of my life, but it can be quite challenging because I can be too trusting too soon."
