#glimmeringdarling 4,629 Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) I sing, for example, "he hit me and it felt like a kiss", a feeling I love. You know when you think it's love, but it's so passionate that it becomes aggressive. It is an attractive quality to me. In a world where everyone is bored, I like people with emotion. Hi I'm Lana I want to take women back to the 1800's by trying to glamorize and make domestic abuse sexy. I'll make a huge impression on a lot of venerable young females and males who don't know any better, cause I'm so fucking bored and brain dead that I can only feel emotion when someone is beating the shit out of me, bonus i'll be safe whilst doing this and be making a shit load of money at the same time. Enjoy Ultraviolence [iMAGE REMOVED] the album hasn't even came Out yet and you're basing this off an interview that May or may not be fake... Chill. I understand where you're coming from but the album hasn't even came out yet..

PrettyBaby 2,220 Posted April 17, 2014 I agree that full-on criticism is premature. But mostly people are expressing their feelings about what's been shared so far. And I'm thinking artists do want people to respond to their work. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wryta Thinkpiece 3,344 Posted April 17, 2014 Yes, but I think violence is something, and that's why Lana's choosing it as a topic to sing about. (Or at least reference. How remains to be seen, I guess.) That response was to the taking of lyrics in general, love, not about the violence. I'd never write the latter off as "nothing." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
parkin 85 Posted April 17, 2014 Your post is far more triggering to any member on LanaBoards who has been in an abusive relationship than that godforsaken lyric is, myself included. And THIS POST is what's disgusting me. Are you fucking serious? I am not even going to bother. It's not just the lyric though is it, it's the statement about the lyric I sing, for example, "he hit me and it felt like a kiss", a feeling I love. You know when you think it's love, but it's so passionate that it becomes aggressive. It is an attractive quality to me. In a world where everyone is bored, I like people with emotion. It's fucked up and anyone who thinks it isn't needs to ask themselves why Some of us have a reason to be fucking salty! 0 If I went to jail, at least I wouldn't have to sign autographs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I'm thinking artists do want people to respond to their work. I agree with this. I merely said that what was said in that interview (which @@Stoop Kid aptly pointed out could be mistranslated, taken out of context, etc) made me feel sick. That was it. I didn't condone her or the lyrics or anything...? 1 you're so art froggo, out on the pond… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's fucked up and anyone who thinks it isn't needs to ask themselves why I think these feelings are misdirected. Maybe people think it's about domestic violence initially, but it's not, it's completely different. There's consent in this case, she just likes getting 'rough handled' so do lots of people. It's like (is) BDSM. As per your advice parkin, I've asked myself why and I realised it's just something that me and my partner is into. Maybe we do find 'vanilla' things boring, so what. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's fucked up and anyone who thinks it isn't needs to ask themselves why She likes rough sex, she likes rough foreplay, she likes that kind of passion that brings out an animalistic nature in bed. Have you heard of someone being "vanilla" in bed? (@ beat me to it, fuck.) So yes, I do think it's okay in that context. And I am entitled to that opinion just as you are entitled to thinking it is the empowerment of abuse. Aggression and abuse may coincide with one another at times, but they do not strictly coexist. You wouldn't say that a football player was "abusive," he was aggressive, he played it rough. God knows if this was even actually said. And it's a written interview, no one knows if this segment got spliced or shortened, they do it all the time to juice up the article or keep it short and entertaining. Okay, gotcha. Sorry for the misunderstanding. No worries, love, happens to all of us. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you were trying to "glamorize" your point with such vile and insensitive imagery, I am not moved. That was insensitive, no matter which way you cut the cake. This is the last time I'm going to respond to you because this is becoming a revolving-door. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I understand that this is a contentious interview and we have a lot of varying, passionate viewpoints, but that doesn't give you license to be a jerk in your delivery.
