This isn’t the unpopular Lana opinion thread. I mean y’all go on about lyrics constantly but there’s no meats on the bones there-it has electric guitar but it’s by no more means even the best solo in her disco-it’s got length, that’s it. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I get that VB is not for everyone. For me, it was a dream come true: I love trippy slowburners of a song, and this ticked all the boxes. Cruel World was the closest she had dwelled into that genre before VB, but those alt guitars Knocked it out of the park for me. Yes, the lyrics are bland on their own, but it’s a song about getting high: pretty normal they’re not Shakespearean. But again, I know that not everybody will love those vibes. but to read some Video Games slander is a bit surprising to say the least it’s not even my fave from her, I can spend many weeks without listening to it, but I still love it anyways and when the feeling is right, VG hits hard. anyways, back to topics: I do hope that some of the trippy guitars from VB and the end of MAC will be on this album. anyone else feels like the « Honeymoon from hell » caption from Jack’s IG story was about them recording American Whore? 12 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly, I’m guessing we’re not going to be seeing songs lyrically similar to something like Venice since the new songs on the album will most likely be wordy, but I do have an appreciation for songs with simple lyrics like it. Dream pop songs like it typically just have simple lyrics anyways, like Fade Into You by Mazzy Star, Milk by Sweet Trip, anything by Cocteau Twins, etc where the focus is a bit more of the atmosphere the song creates. I personally enjoy its lyrics despite its simplicity. But I also just like the song so it’s a subjective opinion and I don’t blame you for disliking them This talk really makes me wonder about the lyrical content/styling of her songs in TUOB! I wonder if all of them will be as wordy yet poetic like the title track 10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe some members have already picked up on this information before but it seems to have been lost. https://archive.org/details/JimBAtTheAtlanticGroup The above is "JIM"- see the reference to "off the races" being said verbatim and his obsession with Hawaii. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
menslayer 18,826 Posted December 30, 2022 are we gonna continue on constantly discuss our own preferences and tastes and obligate other people to agree? I think it’s pretty well known that we all here appreciate different albums: some of us like her earlier work better, others love the new stuff. that’s why being a versatile artist is all about. people here just must know that their tastes are not indestructible truths and all of the options are alright. I guess it’s fun once in a while, when you do it in a funny way but it’s annoying when you really wanna make others like what you like. just enjoy what u like and let others do the same. with that being said, we all know that her best album is Ultraviolence but her magnum opus is Norman 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can't blacken the pages with Russian poetry and be happy." - Blue Banisters Quote I asked Asmodeus (the demon of lust) to make Miley Cyrus suffer. I am not happy with these new developments. After Miley rips off Lana's aesthetic, she bullies Lana into changing her release date. It is infuriating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

menslayer 18,826 Posted December 30, 2022 once again, everything is based on your opinion and your opinion only. and sometimes some people share the same opinion. but they are not unconditional truths. it’s just your point of view. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
