evilentity 13,351 Posted April 18, 2014 This is very important to remember when dealing with Lana. She glamourizes a lot of potentially harmful /controversial things and even in her sweeter songs there are often themes of tragedy, resignation and sadness. That is a big part of the appeal for a lot of people, myself included. she fuckin' sings "come on, you know you like little girls" and y'all decide to get your panties in a bunch about seeming evidence of her rowdy sex habits smh If you don't like how she treats this then you should react the same for how she treats Lolita-like relationships because it's much more fucked up imo then mentioning rough sex. Um, yeah, this might be analogous if Lana was making statements in interviews suggesting she thought sexual relationships between tween girls and middle aged guys were great. I'm not objecting to the sordid or unsettling themes she sings about (and in some cases glamorizes) or anything else in her lyrics. In fact, that has always been part of her appeal to me since the beginning. But there's a difference between singing songs that fetishize abusive relationships and buying into that. I'm merely noting that I find statements of hers that suggest she may actually buy into some of that stuff disconcerting. 5 Stalking you has sorta become like my occupation.

RonnieDRocks 146 Posted April 18, 2014 This is so shady and condescending but I feel like a lot of the fans who say this kind of thing have never even been in a relationship. That's not directed at you haha I just see a lot of the younger fans on twitter tumblr etc saying they "get" Lana's lyrics cos they like rough sex too and I'm like child pls uve only ever been spanked by your mama! I said aggressive men, not abusive ones. There is a difference. Most men that I see today seem to have their balls clipped and I find it quite sad. Lana's songs and lyrics aren't about metrosexual hipsters that's for sure. I don't see what was shady or condescending in my post either, I wasn't condoning abuse, which I do know something about btw. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coney Island King 26,127 Posted April 18, 2014 I said aggressive men, not abusive ones. There is a difference. Most men that I see today seem to have their balls clipped and I find it quite sad. Agreed. Most grown up women i know would agree with this also. Mind you, these are women who run their own businesses, are independent and have had long term relationships. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

silver starlet 1,376 Posted April 18, 2014 wow seems like i missed the drama idk about any of you but the interview/controversy just makes me even more anxious to hear ultraviolence. i'm done with speculating i'm just gonna let it take its course 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ilovetati 15,299 Posted April 18, 2014 Reading the quote again and taking the translation into account, you can see where Lana specifies that she's using violence as a metaphor for an emotionally volatile relationship. Plus, she clarifies that this kind of aggression is something that"you think is love" because you're so blinded by your passion. Now I'm really excited for UV...as if I wasn't before. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tyler 842 Posted April 18, 2014 These potential domestic violence lyrics are not a new thing for Lana. Remember this gem? Hit me, my darling, tonight, I don't know why, but I like it. Hurt me and tell me your mine, I don't know why, but I like it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hurt me and tell me your mine, I don't know why, but I like it. Also one of my favorite demos ever tbh. i hope not all of UV will be JUST about hitting and etc....i'd like variety of sad songs if you know what i mean I really think there's going to be a varieties of "ultraviolences" among the tracks, emotional/mental/drug/etc., I want to see the kind of subtopic variety Father John Misty did with Fear Fun and his recent projects. Why the two did not collaborate yet, I do not fucking know. Lana singing West Coast live would make FJM quiver in voyeuristic pleasure. They're right up each other's alley sonically. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tiffanydale 193 Posted April 18, 2014 i hope not all of UV will be JUST about hitting and etc....i'd like variety of sad songs if you know what i mean I love those sad songs where she sings about willing to do anything for a man who probably doesn't really care for her. idgaf how many songs she's written for that same guy, it's still sad... hope it's on UV 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
