Beautiful Loser 48,619 Posted February 28, 2018 Here I thought "I got tested, and I passed, yes" was about regularily testing yourself against diseases since the next line is "lay me down tonight", meaning she's safe to... you know, "do" tonight. And then I saw the song is about Lorde. 4 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beautiful Loser 48,619 Posted March 1, 2018 was this ever confirmed or Nope, just assumptions made by people in the earlier pages. I don't think Lana would ever confirm if the song is about someone or not. 0 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
expandableclitoris 9,091 Posted March 2, 2018 I mean plenty of sewer rats on LanaBoards.com have attempted to (unconvincingly) compare their sounds 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HunterSThompson 4,646 Posted March 2, 2018 Nope, just assumptions made by people in the earlier pages. I don't think Lana would ever confirm if the song is about someone or not. I couldn't imagine this song is actually about Lorde. It was 2014. Could you imagine Lana calling a 16-17 year old a whore hahahaha Plus "mimicking me is a fucking bore" Lorde sounds nothing like Lana. Their styles are completely different I really do wonder who this song is about though! Maybe it's just about multiple people, not one specifically 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HunterSThompson 4,646 Posted March 2, 2018 Also, "Need you baby, like I breathe you, baby Need you baby, more, more, more, more Need you baby, like I breathe you, baby Fucking need you baby, more, more, more more" She's being sarcastic/sardonic in response to this quote: "I listened to that Lana Del Rey record and the whole time I was just thinking it’s so unhealthy for young girls to be listening to, you know: 'I’m nothing without you.' This sort of shirt-tugging, desperate, don’t leave me stuff. That’s not a good thing for young girls, even young people, to hear" This kind of disproves my earlier post above.... maybe it is about Lorde wait lorde is only 20? I thought she was like 28 wtf I think she recently turned 21! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
americangothic 1,676 Posted September 19, 2018 Are we sure –"Tell me something nice About your favorite girl"– is right? I can't seem to hear the word "nice" at all and it bothers me so much when listening to the song. I hear something like "tell me something I– I'm your favorite girl" but sounds kind of silly and weird. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evilentity 13,341 Posted June 17, 2019 Lay me down tonight In my linen and curls I think Lana's reference to "Tiny Dancer" in "Tomorrow Never Came" might not be the only reference to that song. I think these lines may be a (probably unconscious) reference to the line "Lay me down in sheets of linen" in "Tiny Dancer". 4 Quote Stalking you has sorta become like my occupation.
