Cloudbusting 5,382 Posted August 2, 2017 But .. Love and lust For Life don't fit the rest of the record at all. They feel like they belong to another album Flop for Life Lust For Life can choke. But Love is iconic, the song itself and the video. I still think the album was made for the fans so the lyrics really fit that specific theme. Also it's kinda nice that it's the next thing you hear after Get Free, it's like completing a cycle. Plus, saying it doesn't fit the rest of the album really doesn't matter this time, I mean, why would Stevie Nicks and Playboi Carti be featured in the same album? Lana didn't care about cohesiveness for this album and I really liked that (which may be an actual unpopular opinion). 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoonAgain 872 Posted August 2, 2017 Lana's stage presence has gotten worse and worse since her debut sings over studio track with minor band playing (didn't do that before, a la her OttR n YCBTB performances) i could literally hear the studio version of cherry overpowering her vocals multiple times throughout the song i want my "if you judge me ill fucking kill you" and bbc1 hackney weekend lana live back idc if people think she sounds like a dying whale at least it's a gotdamn SHOW and i LIVE FOR IT i totally agree. at endless summer tour i swear i could barely hear her sometimes. i also h a t e the dancing. i loved the spontaneous cute dancing that she used to do, but this choreographed stuff really ruins the performances. i liked the organic, chill vibe they had before. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gort9999 323 Posted August 2, 2017 Well... she's over. The only good years were from BTD to UV. I mean, she's been talking the same shit on her lyrics for years! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flowerbomb 65,594 Posted August 2, 2017 Her stage outfits lately are annoying me. I get that she's more relaxed and it's good, but dressing up doesn't take much tbh, especially since she probably has stylists and such. She just looks lazy these days. 14 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kind of funny how her fans dress up for her shows and put in 1000% of effort in the mornings before queueing. 6 Quote LB DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 | SECRET SANTA 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly what I was saying in the CA performance thread, I feel like I would be a little miffed if I was getting hyped for a show and she posts up in a tracksuit..it just doesn't exactly portray excitement to perform for the thousands of people that payed money to see you. Even if she's doing it for comfort, there's better ways to dress presentably, she needs a style team 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Her performances seem so tired and predictable. I don't know who the sound managers are but they need to amp up her mic because I can barely hear her sing over the instruments.. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know who the sound managers are but they need to amp up her mic because I can barely hear her sing over the instruments..I was a bit disappointed when she came on stage in only jeans and a black tee in London, but it was my first show with her so I didn't mind that much. I was just happy to be there.Also, there were times when the audience were louder than her and I wished the guitar was louder. But I had earplugs to protect my eardrums so maybe it would've sounded different without them. (But I honestly doubt it because both Coldplay and U2 sounded perfect with earplugs but then again, their music is totally different...) 2 Quote LB DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 | SECRET SANTA 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kristinaj 1,168 Posted August 2, 2017 Love, Change and Get Free are the only truly good songs on Lust for Life. Also, I don't understand the hate for Love at all... it's one of the best songs she has ever done. It's such a mature and honest song. Everybody who hates it has never been in love tbh 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Party Favor 10,308 Posted August 5, 2017 Finally someone who hates Roachella as much as me. as soon as i hear her crooning like some basic white girl drunk in the california sun i skip immediately to ha good sis God Bless America speaking of unpopular opinions, GBA is a bop. I don't know if it's well liked here, but it's trashed everywhere else 3 Quote leak the barrie-james co-written songs + elvis (2013) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GroupieLover 1,162 Posted August 5, 2017 Love, Change and Get Free are the only truly good songs on Lust for Life. Also, I don't understand the hate for Love at all... it's one of the best songs she has ever done. It's such a mature and honest song. Everybody who hates it has never been in love tbh The song isn't even about falling in love, hence why she changed the title to simply "Love". The song is meant to be more universal and all-inclusive. The lyrics make no mention about young love but instead about being youthful and loving at heart in a world that's becoming increasingly more hateful and confusing. She doesn't even mention love once until the end of the chorus and when she posted that video of her singing the song on her insta awhile back she changed it to "it's enough to FEEL young and HAVE LOVE IN YOUR HEART". Artists tend to simplify things a bit to be simply about a singular love so it's more personal and intimate but the song ain't even about falling in love, not in the context she wrote it at least. 1 Quote I'm in love with the green on the grass and the trees, the scent of my sidewalks perfumed by the rain/ I'm in love with the tunes that colored my youth/ and the smudges of autumn that spill through the pane/I'm in love, just in a different way/ and that's okay.
