theweightofthehours 1,836 Posted June 19, 2020 I love Ultraviolence but Cruel World as an opener is too long. It's a great track but it gets soo repetitive that I can't remember when was the last time I listened to the song in full. Β Also, I remember there was a sort of intro/demo around that never made it into the album where she sang "let the light in, it's a cruel world" or something like that, does anybody know if that thing still exists? Couldn't find it on YT. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Couldn't find it on YT. Β She used to open her shows in 2014 singing "Let the light in, let the light shine, it's a cruel world" as a sort of intro right before 'Cola'. I don't think that was an official song, just random lines she used to sing before every show. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShadesOfFool 20,126 Posted June 19, 2020 i'm tempted to say lust for life is my second favorite album, i can't believe people don't like that one... Β i mean, it kind of fizzles out in the third act, but love-god bless america is like...pure gold. and then she brings it home with change and get free.

Ultra Violet 18,977 Posted June 20, 2020 My top 5 Lana songs 1. Mariners Apartment Complex 2. Get Free 3. Bel Air 4. Heroin 5. Venice Bitch Β Venice Bitch or Mariners shouldβve opened the album imo Β Β 100% yes, MAC followed by VB is one of the best side by side track situations she has.Β and 13 beaches for LFL would have made the best opening. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

genghis khan 5,107 Posted June 21, 2020 i hate when people push for her to be casted as priscilla presley or sharon tate. she doesn't even look like them, she just does her hair and makeup to emulate the era. hiring an actor purely on the basis of how similar their fashion is is recipe for a shit movie. and she's really just not the best at acting anyways 5 Quote Β Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What a beautiful, dreamy song, what an outstanding outro! Β girl dont even get me started on how much i hate that song. all the musical problems aside, the concept of the song is just so cheesy and out of touch. rich white woman writes song about how shes at coachella, thinking about "the children" reflecting the politics of the time. like c'monnnnn. political commentary really just isn't her thing 7 Quote Β Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never been a "fan" of Lana's lyricism, but mostly the opposite. What makes her music magical for me is the experience and emotion she is able to convey no matter the words she is singing, and Coachella is from my point of view a good example for that. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
