Anyone else think it's "rad" and not "rare"?

I think it's rad and not rare

It's definitely rad.

When I listen to the line in isolation, I can't tell for sure whether it's "rad" or "rare", but I think I hear "rare", which is also slightly more likely because it rhymes with "hair" two lines before.

 

The booklet says "rare" but it also says " 'cause I was filled with passion" in Ultraviolence so idk what to trust.

What booklet?

And if you don't like it

You can beat it, beat it, baby

 

You never liked the way I said it

If you don't get it, then forget it

'Cuz I don't have to fucking explain it

Lana lyrics or a reply in a LanaBoards flame war?

I've always thought the male background vocals at the end were by Barrie, but the booklet begs to differ...

Yeah, I noticed that too. Though it seems like the background vocals were intended to sound like Barrie.

Why couldn't Barrie just sing them...

Well I can't help but notice when she starts doing the lala/dedah/whatever after the second chorus she clearly says "gaga". Makes me wonder if she is poking fun at Gaga or if its just noise. I don't know anything about their supposed connection so I can't say one way or another but maybe someone who does/cares would.

I'm not sure if this is entirely accurate, but I read somewhere that Gaga stole her style and then started calling out Lana for copying her.

I just looked up the name in the booklet (from what I could see) and that person doesn't exist. Ii'm for sure that it's sung by Barrie, because I listen to his music a lot, and it sounds like his voice. He probably credited himself under a fake name. You know like that whole Taylor Swift mess? Maybe they knew they were falling apart, and he didn't want to be credited as the the backing vocals. #THEORY
