Lust For Life - Pre-Release Thread

Recommended Posts

A few weeks ago Blake posted a photo of Lana and him performing at SXSW and the caption was "incense and peppermints "

There is a song titled Insence and Peppermints by a psychedelic pop/rock band from the 1960/70s named Strawberry Alarm Clock. The song is in several pop culture movies such as Psych-Out, The Valley of the Dolls and Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery. It could obviously be a reach but the song is very centered around politics so I thought I'd at least point it out.

Here are the lyrics:

Good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind

Dead kings, many things I can't define

Occasions, persuasions clutter your mind

Incense and peppermints, the color of time

Who cares what games we choose?

Little to win but nothin' to lose

Incense and peppermints, meaningless nouns

Turn on, tune in, turn your eyes around

Look at yourself, look at yourself, yeah, yeah

Look at yourself, look at yourself, yeah, yeah, yeah!

To divide this cockeyed world in two

Throw your pride to one side, it's the least you can do

Beatniks and politics, nothing is new

A yardstick for lunatics, one point of view

Who cares what games we choose?

Little to win but nothin' to lose

[instrumental break]

Good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind

Dead kings, many things I can't define

Occasions, persuasions clutter your mind

Incense and peppermints, the color of time

Who cares what games we choose?

Little to win but nothin' to lose

Incense and peppermints

Incense and peppermints

Some of you should get into creative writing, the amount of random bullshit some can create out of vague nothing information is a genuine talent.

It took about two minutes of googling a simple song lyric, and it was worth a thought. She's alluded to strawberries multiple times. I was simply pointing it out. No need for the hatred.

Honestly she wouldnt mention sunflowers and strawberries if they werent a part of this project so. And of course her track of release has led to overreaching assumptions, no need to attack people for their imagination.

are we not allowed to have any fun at all? we all know it's not that deep like i don't think anyone is seriously invested in their theories, it's all lighthearted and fun and they said they wanted us to speculate anyways so????? like are we just supposed to not talk at all until she releases something or gives us news? lmao 

 

regardless of what anyone says i'm still gonna be excited every tuesday and new moon phase, not because i believe it's gonna happen (i have no opinion on it being real or not), but because it's FUN. it's something to do, and i love being excited for new stuff!! plus if it actually happens that'd be cool too lol. u all can stay pressed if u want but stop making other ppl feel bad for having a good time and finding something to do while we're waiting

Honestly I don't know how the majority of you find it so hard to wait or have patience!! It's really not that difficult do you not have anything else going on to distract you

So idk if its been mentioned since i dont check this thread past the last page, but in the photo is the "Pink moon" and guess what's happening today? I mean it IS a Tuesday like you guys speculated... I could see us getting an announcement of some sort today and then learn more about whatever it may be in the new Paris Match Magazine article the following day (Wednesday)

I love your posts. Like, if she did a collab with either Sean or Yoko, it would be kinda cheesy if it was the Beatles song Strawberry Fields. Idk... Incense and Peppermints seems more plausible to me, plus it's more political/socially aware than Strawberry Fields.
