idk who shamir is but that was bad. probably would be way better if it was studio produced not just a small little cover

 

 

get that promo tho!

[LDR5]

I feel like "War" is gonna sound like a more cinematic "Midnight Decisions" by Sia

[latothemoon]

I hate stand alone singles, i hope includes it as a bonus track or something.

[Uniporu]

tell us all, what did you expected   ? 

 

when i saw the title, i expected something acoustic. not some trap beat

[DominicMars]

I hate stand alone singles, i hope includes it as a bonus track or something.

Really? I love them and was hoping that Love would be a standalone single (that's not a soundtrack song anyway)

[WildMustang]

I played Coachella on the guitar and it would have worked perfectly as an acoustic/country song..

It's very nice actually 

[californianfreak]

Holy flip only 2 days ago I hated this song so much I cried and now I can't get enough of it 

 

LANA HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE 

[SuperMegaStan]

the verses are so catchy... maybe it's because it's so folky + lullaby-like.... they should really do something about the drums to make it in-sync w/ the vocal

[jvcx]

guess what song I've had on replay for most of the time today   Coachella has grown on me so much since sunday like omg

[UltraviolenceBaby]

it grows on me

other than that, she seems so proud of it, that's why i loved it!

[ilovetati]

The way this shitty song has grown on me lord.

 

It's just the awkward delivery of the children prechorus and demoish production that bother me. It could have been a great song with more time...love the second verse lyrics about FJM

[butterflies]

Where's @butterflies

New Sounds: Lana Del Rey’s ‘Coachella — Woodstock in My Mind’ should stay in the VIP tent  

MAY 16, 2017

Just in time for festival season, Lana Del Rey has graced us with a new single, titled, if you can believe it, “Coachella — Woodstock in My Mind”.

If you want to stop reading right now and extrapolate what the whole thing sounds like based on name alone, you’ll hit pretty close to the mark. As the title implies, it’s a Lana Del Rey song that sounds like a brutal parody of a Lana Del Rey song, complete with multiple flower crown references, an ‘80s baby’s rose-tinted nostalgia for the ‘60s, and the sort of hollow melancholy that’s more of an aesthetic than an emotion. The melodic arrangement shoots for ethereal but drifts away with the shapelessness of festival smoke.

But it’s worse than that, too. With lines like “For a minute it was Woodstock in my mind/In the next morning/They put out a warning/Tensions were rising over country lines,” it’s laced with just enough performative political concern to warrant an eyebrow raise. “Maybe my contribution could be as small as hoping,” she sings, as if that sort of self-assured bystanding wasn’t a contributing factor to any major world issues in 2017. She offers an apologistic take on music festival luxury, too, as she watches a charismatic performer (suspected to be Father John Misty) from backstage, lamenting about how all the world’s turmoil can exist concurrently with the magic of festival revelry.

“I had complex feelings about spending the weekend dancing whilst watching tensions w North Korea mount,” she’d written on Instagram while on her way home from the actual Coachella weeks earlier. Unfortunately, any meaningful sentiment from that moment gets left out of the track, which feels disingenuous in the emotion that it does convey: Sure, I’m soaking in all these famous-people festival vibes here backstage, but leave me alone, because I’m also thinking about some pretty heavy stuff, which I shan’t actually name!

Music festivals are fun. Music festivals aren’t inherently bad. But to write a song about a privileged experience and dress it up with political seriousness without ever naming an issue reads more like a calculated marketing move, doling out the heroism of taking a stand without the controversy of choosing a cause. Worse still, it gives Del Rey the meaningless glamour of rebellion while actually discouraging any real action.

At least the vagueness leaves room to dream about a more pleasant theory: In a kinder alternate universe, all of the above is deliberate. There, this is Lana Del Rey leaning so far into the LDR persona that she’s actually taking a stab at the kind of ironic caricature preferred by Father John Misty himself — which would make it a mind-boggling success. Regardless, she’s pulling all of her usual levers so hard that she stands to rip them clear off the machine. We can only hope that something better awaits when that happens.

get that 1 retweet boo

anyway this article is kinda dumb, i think she is looking too far into it

[salp]

Lmao what a dumb bitch

[KillKillQueen]

Honestly, that article is exactly how I feel about the song. It's kind of just ridiculous in it's framing and everything I don't want from a "Woke Lana makes fake deep songs about navel gazing at coachella" album.

 

However, I don't want that spread to the public from any news outlet   

[99centlips]

I HATED this song on first listen. And then cried at how beautiful it was today.

Y does dis bitch do dis to me?
