Random Lana Discussion Thread

Recommended Posts

I know that I'm a mess with my long hair and my sun tan, short dress, bare feet
I don't care what they say about me, what they say about me
Because I know that it's L-O-V-E
You make me happy, you make me happy
And I never listen to anyone

I thought I was in the COCC pre-release thread ?

Tell people to stop making baseless hyperbolic statements and we can move onto COCC  :usrs:

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.

let's not act like lolita doesn't have one of the best bridges lana has made 

ahhh in general i miss LDR bridges  :toofunny: thats the main reason why im not too big of a fan of her working with jack... the lack of bridges kills me and i feel gets rid of that flare she is always able to add to a song with a bridge.

Yeah, I agree with you about BPBP. Should have stuck with the demo

There was no way that song could have stayed the same as the demo on any final album: “She wants to die and she should fucking try”... Could anyone get away with those lyrics ?!?? I mean, I don’t mind darkness and depression in a song, I don’t mind a song about contemplating or suggesting suicide, but a song suggesting she should do it?!? Ouf!!!!

However, the final song is really detached from any real emotion and that is why I don’t love it. The lyrics aren’t bad, but we can hear that she reworked the whole thing to have Stevie in board and be a “duet with an iconic legend”.

same  :rip: rick and lana really created some amazing bridges together, some songs on nfr feel so empty (love song & cinnamon girl) when it's just two verses and the chorus repeated twice


i love you, but you don't understand me.

The only songs that you can pick from NFR as basic, while still maintaining your argument, are Love Song, NFR and Happiness is a Butterfly.

 

The Greatest, Venice Bitch, Mariners, Fuck It I Love You, Bartender's meandering instrumental, hope being her most stripped down song to date, Cinnamon Girl's industrial/electronic instrumentation aren't just me "cherry picking"

The greatest is one of the songs with better production, but compared to older stuff not that special either, VB is the exception as I've said, the FILY production honestly sounds annoying to me but I listen to the early mix, maybe that's why. Bartender is just boring piano, the song could have sounded so much bigger, I like it on hope cause the lyrics are so raw. As someone who used to listen to a lot of electronic music, Cinnamon Girl has a suuuper boring & basic beat. At the beginning I thought it was kind of cute but now I just skip the end part. Even if you disagree, her older albums objectively have way more cinematic production & a lot of us miss that.

I still can't believe those lyrics are real  :deadbanana:

Why are you acting like she's dead? At a certain point in their career, an artist can't continue making the same type of cinematic music that jumpstarted their career, without it beginning to sound derivative. Born to Die, Paradise, UV, HM all have almost sixty songs between them. Jack mentioned that they went in a different direction from Norman on this record, so maybe you'll find something that catches your interest on Chemtrails?

I never said she sounds dead? I like NFR, but as I wrote, I'd prefer different production on COCC, cause I'm not really into that lo-fi style. I don't need her to do the exact same things as on past albums, I just said the production on NFR isn't my fave. You're putting words in my mouth, but yeah I'm happy if Jack changes it up.

TNC is bad because its so far from Lana, she was basically just covering a beatles song, like that is not her music at all, the same thing with BPBP is just a fleetwood mac song

Doin' time is a cover and ... OMG <3 also the videoclip ICONIC

Which Unreleased song feels like your guilty pleasure?

 

Mine is Hit & Run

I don't know why I love it so much but it sounds so early 2000s, and kinda Lady Gagaish and reminds me of the time I discovered it in my final year of high school and I would listen to it and pretend I was not a model student and in fact a crazy bombshell who drives round town  :thumb:

 

SAME, my most listened unreleased songs from when I was finishing high school are hit & run and children of the bad revolution

 

they made me feel like I was living this craaazy life partying a lot  but in reality I looked like trash, had no social life and was only studying and working at a pet supplies store lmao
