LDR5 - Pre-Pre-Release Annual Meltdown and Discussion Thread

[analwinterofmylife 2,644]

Actually a lot of people don't like Sirens and think it's horrible    Siren's is raw and beautiful. You can tell every lyric had meaning to it, and even though the guitar could sound similar in the songs each note was picked specially imo.

 

i mean i see how people may dislike sirens.. the instrumentals are super simple.. but some iconic lyrics and melodies came from it.. for k, bad disease.. my momma, out with a bang.. all you need, aviation.. 

 @SarcasticBeauty how can u ignore all this? 

t was a drive-by Sunday night

Most of us were in bed all right

I turned down the light

Then I heard the sirens

Interrupt the silence

 

Is this what you wished

To commit a crime?

There's something about seeing him die

That puts it all into perspective and I

Want to stay home, be left alone

Someone make my mind up so I don't have to decide

 

I got a bad disease

I got a bad disease

To fall into

Yeah, I do

little bits and pieces, falling to the corners

Box of broken leases, lined up in an order

I'll do what you tell me, we can have it your way

I'll tell you the future, you tell me your story

I had a dream

When I was young

I dreamt our lives were

Going to be found

When we were always

Waiting to live

 

All you need

Is some peace

While you are here

Just let go

I'll be it all, dear

 

You have the choice

To hear the noise

Or hear the sweet sound

Of your sweet voice

I know I've heard it

I heard it in my sleep

 

All you need

Is some peace

While you are here

Just let go

Don't say no, dear

 

Wake up each night

At the same time

Pull up the blind

And look outside

And in the orange light

The fog is rising

 

This is life

The still night

Peace in the quiet

Happiness

Is the sky

-----------------------------------

Do you think I'm crazy

For considering aviation?

I'm the fan of flying

Want to do it for the nation

'Cause I have nothing else to do

 

This summer but committed to you

Have a big degree in philosophy

But I don't know what I want to be

I LOVE THE LYRICS!!!!!!

 

THE SOUND WAS SO FUCKIN BORING. (plus they all sounded the same) Listen, I'm not doubting Lana's ability. She's great. She's my fave. But Sirens was enough to put me in a coma for a couple months if not a year. Those lyrics are beauties. I'll give it to you.

[BeautifulAnywhere 5,417]

Ok so BTD was a perfect Debut album but it's the not her strongest now that I've had a lot of time to reflect on all of her albums including Sirens. I feel it may in fact be her weakest. I feel she really found the type of style she wanted with both UV and HM and everything leading up to BTD was more experimental hence all of the bops in the unreleased songs. Sirens and AKA is more akin to her most recent albums than BTD. In fact, in only a few moments did her lyrics really shine in BTD, such cases were Off To The Races and Video Games. Now, I admit in HM her lyrics did falter a bit but her sound felt more her in an essence. I must admit I'm very interested to know what her next album will sound like. There's no doubt it'll sound like something we've never heard before. Espically since Hakan has only heard the demos, and as we all know Lana's demos are almost always different than her final product.

i mean i agree.the instrumentals are so minimal that its not the most enjoyable thing but.. imagine if the album was reworked  

[leaked_version 10,499]

People are delusional here as always,let me break it down for y'all once and for all time. Mods, pls thank me for this.

 

UV was her artistic peak and will most likely forever be.

BTD was not as artistic as UV, but had by a LONG SHOT the best melodies and most memorable moments.

HM was just there.

 

Sirens is horrible by the way. AKA was pretty amazing, but not as great as UV and BTD.

Well we do know she did record a music video so it's not like impossible a november release. But to be honest I doubt it'll happen and hopefully it's not true. As much as I  would love to hear new songs I hope she takes her time and find new inspirations, because she's on the edge artistically - at this point with leaks and album releases I think "Lana" as this character was already covered from every possible angle. There isn't any mistery or story to be unfold, we already know it all. So what's next? Homeymoon is great but lyrically it's just a mix from all she's done before

[CrazySister 2,239]

Sometimes sound is more important than lyrics.. I feel like us, the fanbase on Lanaboards, care more about lyrics than the common person. Most common listeners are more about if it sounds good, then they'll like it.

But the majority of people here prefer UV...

I agree, but I still think that Honeymoon is a little different from the others. Still have the same story there, but there is an additional of how her life is now.

You highlighted the wrong part, if we were going on my thoughts about BTD over UV.

Yeah, this was a mistake, sorry   . I was trying to say that I think people prefer UV because of the sound, not because of the lyrics. I think Born to Die is better lyrically, but I prefer UV because of the production.

[Wynwood 19,967]

That's not what the sales say. but I'm not here to argue.

I'm a girl. And Yes. 

 

How are we different than the 'common people'? What is a common person?

Lanaboard Users look waaaaaaaaayyyyyy deeper into things than we probably should. And a lot of normal people, say, radio listeners don't usually care for the lyrics all too much, if the song sounds good. But I'm really not here to argue on anything. That was just my thoughts on the matter.

OK but didn't UV sell 276k its first week as a #1 and BTD was #2 with 78k?

[SarcasticBeauty 1,540]

OK but didn't UV sell 276k its first week as a #1 and BTD was #2 with 78k?

That's because her fanbase was already there. Where as BTD GOT HER HER FANBASE. And overall.... BTD Sales are better and more.
