The locals and tiktok fans eating up Paris, Texas was so unexpected but it’s racking up streams  

because it's the shortest song, they have only a short attention span

Judah isn’t even preaching to us, he’s preaching to Lana

yep and it's also one of the tightest, like traditionally structured with a hook and such so it's very palatable (still a great song) compared to a lot of the songs on here that through structure out the window lol

i liked paris, texas but i kinda feel like it was a bit short and didn't really go anywhere, not gonna lie  it's still really pretty though

So many people hating the Judah interlude and skipping it on reactions…

 

I am personally very anti-religion and all the church stuff, but the interlude wasn’t at all as bad as I expected. The production makes it very eerie, it sounds like a movie scene, and what he’s saying isn’t that bad as well - if you take out the whole “god and bible” aspect of it - he’s talking about trying to live a better life, live in the moment, appreciate things around himself and not chase after more materialistic things. 
 

and the ending is very reflective of the album itself - Lana’s preaching is not about us, it’s about her. The interlude is a key part of understanding this album and people who’re skipping it are missing out, I said what I said

It’s also very annoying when most YouTube reactioners skip the interlude right before it gets to the most important part and then they’re like “I don’t know why she had to put that there”

not gonna get into this but the american christian culture that judah smith is a part of is completely enmeshed with the way capitalism operates and oppresses in America and it's probably similar elsewhere. and judah smith is not a feminist, the lines about lust and infatuation sound a lot like the rhetoric used to suppress female sexuality

i think youre getting way too hung up on judah smith himself/his church or whatever- i could care less about the guy lmao, what is interesting to me is what is said & Lana's choice to include it right after A&W...like that says a lot. & i think thats where the feminist standpoint could easily come in. 

 

like no one is saying *he's* a feminist or anti capitalist, they're saying Lana's artistic choice can be interpreted that way

 

but anyways, it's not black or white, its obv nuanced & i get the people who appreciate it less too

k yes i agree 💗 i see those perspectives with lana's decision to put it in but thought that what was being said was that his literal words expressed that
