BethDufreneOnTheBayouByYou 8,656 Posted May 10, 2023 OMG she has outdone herself AGAIN I love the meta theme so much which made me realize the Jon Batiste Interlude is sort of another behind the scenes piece of Jon and Lana playing in the studio together. That song exudes so much joy to me and it made me feel the same way seeing Lana at the end of CN video smiling on the walk of fame. 19 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GeminiLanaFan 48,869 Posted May 10, 2023 This is a masterpiece. The BTS vs the « real footage », just like the empty promesse of a candy necklace, her looks, the old Hollywood vibes, the references to her other MV, plus the black and white imagery that mirrors the first photoshoot of the era AND the album cover… This has got to be one of her best. 15 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mlittle11 12,213 Posted May 10, 2023 the flash of the camera at the end fades into her looking beautiful, happy, and alive at her star. some are saying she might be in heaven? it reminds me of the line “i even think i found God in flash bulbs of your pretty cameras” 10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lili 3,175 Posted May 10, 2023 I didn’t get it at first and felt a bit annoyed that the flow of the song was constantly interrupted, because I just quite simply adore it. BUT, now I think maybe the idea was, with the self references many of you have mentioned, interrupting the flow of the art deliberately (and thus the possibility of getting lost in it) to draw attention to the artist being a real person beyond our conceiving of her. I can tell she feels strongly about this particular this video which is honestly so cool to see. 🩵 14 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terrence Loves Me 72,645 Posted May 10, 2023 I'd honestly love a music video for Ocean Boulevard directed by Rich Lee as well. And if we're lucky enough to get a third video, i'd love it to be for Kintsugi or A&W 16 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fordham Noir 0 Posted May 10, 2023 What if Rockefeller refers to Rockefeller Center? Which could relate somehow to the nearby Diamond District in NYC (necklaces)? Or to SNL which is filmed at 30 Rock? Or just some guy she went to Rockefeller Center with one time? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
