Pico Ocean Boulevard 41,093 Posted April 4, 2022 Text Book is one of her best ,if not her best produced song in years in my opinion it's a career highlight & highly underrated 9 Quote "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." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It makes a perfect song a 9/10 instead of a 10 Also why french when it's a Spanish name Maybe cause Humber Humber is French (i don't remember if he was actually french or if he was just obsessed with making french literary references) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was the only thing I remembered after the first listening. Years later I started loving the song. 0 Quote I'm fucking crazy, but I'm free Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shady 3,752 Posted April 4, 2022 Speaking of LFL, as much as I love that album, I feel like the 'vintage' effect on her voice was so overdone. First that came into my mind are In My Feelings, Coachella and Freak (I know it's from HM) . It's kinda off. It's kinda her signature sound but in some songs it sounds like a bad quality mp3 song from 2007. She did it so subtle in UV and the instruments matched perfectly,probably because it was the microphone itself that made that sound. 1 Quote I'm fucking crazy, but I'm free Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I loved LFL and its messiness because well, it was a messy time of my life as well. Plus it was a mid-summer album and I like more diverse music when the air is hot. Granted, some of the last additions are really not that polished or as good as many other tracks, but they are good “easy-to-listen” songs to vibe to. After HM, she needed a change of pace (love HM, but a second ethereal album like the LFL demo would have been a lot to process for the GP lol) 2 minutes ago, Sunset Opal said: I don’t like Yosemite Don’t worry, hun: Eclipse also 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never noticed any particular vintage effect in the Freak vocals. Maybe it's there but it fits with the song better? totally agree with the LFL songs tho. The vintage effect could have worked amazing if she went for that dark witchy sound. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dominikx4 25,410 Posted April 5, 2022 LFL aged like fine wine and does NOT deserve all the slander. apart from Coachella and IMF, the album as a whole is excellent and produced a bunch of career highlights 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Super Movie 51,695 Posted April 6, 2022 Lust for Life has never been as bad as it's made out to be. Like, don't even tell me an album with that final three track run + 13 Beaches, Groupie Love, and Cherry (also TNC imo but that's debatable i guess) is bad 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fingertips 72,040 Posted April 6, 2022 Yeah, if Lust for Life didn't have those three or four cringe songs in the middle of the album (IMF, Coachella, WTWWAW and GBA (to a lesser extent, I would have still kept this one), and included Roses Bloom For You, Yosemite + Best American Record, it would be one of her best 4 Quote "You can't be a muse and be happy, too. 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
