Greenwich 1,052 Posted January 30, 2014 It's definitely "do" "All" my worries I think it's also hit man, and burn man If it was hitman, then it would be burnman, and that doesn't make any sense. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eat your heart out Gaga. Stefani, you suck. inb4 I make a "Did Dan Savage plagiarize Lana Del Rey?" thread. How much you wanna bet she played this at her Cattyshack gig?

Sitar 22,210 Posted January 30, 2014 I think the syntax is more like so: I can, you can, we can do Can keep it all together Rather than "do can" (whatever that is) 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

evilentity 13,343 Posted January 31, 2014 I think the syntax is more like so: I can, you can, we can do Can keep it all together Rather than "do can" (whatever that is) This makes sense on paper, but not when you actually listen to it, her phrasing and where she takes her breaths. Nope, this is just Lana ignoring the rules of English grammar again. Don't get me wrong. There's nothing inherently wrong with breaking grammar rules. Poets and songwriters have been doing that for centuries. 2 Quote Stalking you has sorta become like my occupation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly, I frequently find associations between Morrissey/The Smiths and Lana in their lyrics. Does anyone know if Lana happens to be a fan? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HEARTCORE 18,971 Posted April 12, 2014 Does anybody else think that 'For You' might be an alternative name for 'For Charlie'? To me, it sounds like she is singing more about a close friend/family member as opposed to a boyfriend, so it sorta fits... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wilde_child 490 Posted June 29, 2014 I do find some similarities too. I think she likes The Smiths. Saw a quote from There Is A Light... in her yfrog album once and it made my day! Maybe I'm just reading too much into her lyrics sometimes, but when I heard the first verse, I thought of a line from Morrissey's "Dial-a-Cliché" And you find that you've organized your feelings for people Who didn't like you then, and do not like you now.
