movebaby 5,379 Posted June 19, 2019 I don't like to put down others but... The only thing uglier than that the Blurt shoot (specially the pics where she's sitting in the chair looking like a methed up Chef Anne Burrell) is that ugly ass mess she did in the cornfield with that ugly ass hat. that was a wild ride through those links lmao and you're not wrong 4 Quote it's just the way i feel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shellfish beach 343 Posted June 22, 2019 I am not that excited about the music from NFR. The songs are okay, but they are overall lackluster and don't have what made Lana's music special to me. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s the first time I’ve seen that pic from the Blurt shoot and it reminds me vaguely of my grandmother because she has big blonde hair like that :toofunny: 3 Quote Hell, I Suppose if You Stick Around Long Enough, They Have to Say Something Nice About You Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ultra Violet 18,412 Posted June 22, 2019 I am not that excited about the music from NFR. The songs are okay, but they are overall lackluster and don't have what made Lana's music special to me. Yeah same, and I don't know if it's just the snippets she's choosing to release, but the LFL snippets were better than this, and we didn't even end up loving that album too much... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beautiful Loser 45,741 Posted June 25, 2019 BAR is too repetitive and gets boring after a while, I can understand why it got scrapped but I definitely think it could've been reworked to sound better, mostly lyrically. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drowning mermaid 1,706 Posted June 26, 2019 Ooh unpopular opinions?? Her lyrics were original and charming in AKA, everything she said really painted a picture and I feel like she slowly lost that charm in her songwriting over time. Although I adore UV, Black Beauty is when her lyricism was at its worst, there is not a single interesting lyric in the whole thing, it’s like she wasn’t even trying. I think Honeymoon and NFR is a return to her more out of the box type of songwriting ((I have no clue wtf happened with LFL tho)) 1 Quote all my wounds are due to love, to love, love, love Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SweetHenny 14,466 Posted June 28, 2019 I feel like I will be dragged for this, but for me most of the unrealeased songs are kinda unlistenable and un-Lana-ish 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WildMustang 14,725 Posted July 1, 2019 I don't like pretty when you cry live I mean she is serving vocals but the songs loses its melancholy and desperation I feel listening to the original 3 Quote ...just you and me feeling the heat even when the sun goes down...

mkultraviolence 5,829 Posted July 1, 2019 Paradise Edition: (these may not be unpopular, i'm just saying my opinion) umm how was American not scrapped? the lyrics and vocals just sound so bad to me. seems like a filler song Blue Velvet was bland and boring, emotionless. most of Ride feels static. Next. Lana's performance of Body Electric live at the 2012 iTunes Festival is incredible. One of my favorite live recordings of her. The strings, just beautiful. We can all agree that AKA Yayo is better The sound of the children playing in Bel Air feels pure and I feel like all my troubles disappear when I hear it Born to Die and Paradise are so over-produced and heavy, I would love the album so much more if it was stripped down, closer to the demo versions. It sounds so overly-refined and that SHOUTING SOUND IS SO ANNOYING OH MY GOD ITS EMBARRASSING. That's why her unreleased music appeals to me so much because usually it's stripped down and more raw. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Girl in Bel Air 1,677 Posted July 1, 2019 So recently I just rediscovered the live version of Body Electric @ Hackney, the very first time she sang it before it was released. Anyways, that live version is better than the recorded. I know her vocals are pretty bad, but that's the charm for me. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We have similar opinions! *Bel Air was so beautiful and whimsical when I first heard it * Honestly, I used to love American but then listening to it again, it's pretty cringey. I think I loved it when I was 15 was bc it reminded me of a boy that I thought I was in love with lol * I could never get into Blue Velvet * Body Electric live sounds much better, you right *The screams. I CAAAAAANNNNT *still love those tracks 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sugar Venom 9,651 Posted July 2, 2019 “the shouting sound” i’m sorry do you mean rick fucking james??? the btd and paradise slander i can’t. clearly y’all don’t get her vision and that’s okay but those records are perfect just the way they are. the changes y’all want would've made them far less special anyways i wish she would bring back her btd/paradise whale live vocals.... i love them so much 16 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
