Say Yes to Heaven 27,514 Posted June 3, 2017 Lilacs in my mind all the time Are blooming beautifully Even though some stare and say Her last affair went brutally Well I don't let them rain on my parade That's not my thing 'Cause I've got love on my side, now I've got nothing to hide, now And now life's a dream "So many songs left on the cutting room floor but this was a special one I wrote in March called 'Roses bloom for you'I don't film all my live takes but I'm glad I got this one because I was very excited about the beautiful chords my producer Rick Nowels found for this gem." https://www.instagram.com/p/BU3uuroFcIk/?taken-by=lanadelrey 31 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cherryblossoms 10,415 Posted June 3, 2017 It sounds sooo jazzy I can imagine Nina Simone singing this. But seriously her love songs are the best. This sounds so heartfelt and beautiful and so very unique. No one today compares 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Make me your Dream Life 87,780 Posted June 3, 2017 So if this didn't end up on LFL, the songs on the record must be even more lush and blissful, it's difficult waiting 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elle 121,279 Posted June 3, 2017 This is literally so gorgeous. Nearly started bawling on the set I'm on. I'm just hoping this isn't another 'I'm Not Hungry Anymore' situation 26 Quote • 4.18.14 • 5.1.14 • 9.20.14 • 5.28.15 • 6.14.15 • 7.28.16 • 7.24.17 • 10.23.17 • 10.24.17 • 1.25.18 • 2.5.18 • 12.5.18 • 10.3.19 • 10.11.19 • 11.16.19 • SF • ATL • ATL • IND • ATL • CHI • LDN • NYC • NYC • DC • ATL • NYC • PDX • SAN • KS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Psychedelic Pussy 30,107 Posted June 3, 2017 This needs an official release. If she could do it for Coachella she can do it for this track. Baby girl needs to make these consistent releases of B-side tracks to keep us in love 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elle 121,279 Posted June 3, 2017 This sounds a lot like Dean Martin's 'Everybody Loves Somebody' and I adore that song. (& hints of 'Wait for Life') 9 Quote • 4.18.14 • 5.1.14 • 9.20.14 • 5.28.15 • 6.14.15 • 7.28.16 • 7.24.17 • 10.23.17 • 10.24.17 • 1.25.18 • 2.5.18 • 12.5.18 • 10.3.19 • 10.11.19 • 11.16.19 • SF • ATL • ATL • IND • ATL • CHI • LDN • NYC • NYC • DC • ATL • NYC • PDX • SAN • KS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
annedauphine 35,879 Posted June 3, 2017 I love how risky she's going in this like the little parts of rain and parade and I adore how jazzy it sounds The lyrics are amazing too 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paris Hilton 9,845 Posted June 3, 2017 I woke up 4:00 AM for no reason and I saw this video while I was hearing the rain in the background. This song better be in LFL, it's so beautiful 4 Quote "Some days are for falling in love with people, some days for cities, and some for your time in solitude."

NamiraWilhelm 5,043 Posted June 3, 2017 how could you leave this on the cutting room floor and not Coachella 12 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jvcx 3,644 Posted June 3, 2017 The lyrics are absolutely beautiful I'm gonna have to agree on the Coachella part too, if she released that surely she could at least put this out on the record easily. Typically unclear of Lana though, not letting us know if it actually is on the record or just left to gather dust somewhere on Rick's hard drive. I never cared for LIB but I'd love to hear this one in full 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunder Revenant 20,943 Posted June 3, 2017 Maybe she meant that a lot of songs were left there but THIS one was special so it ends up on the album Sounds cute. 4 Quote Just do it. Just do it - don't wait! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elle 121,279 Posted June 3, 2017 Just from this, I'm getting the sense that this song may be about all of the disrespect she used to receive in 2012 (her last affair went brutally), but how she didn't let it bother her (I don't let them rain on my parade) and since then she's been able to create a strong, loving fanbase (I've got love on my side now.) She also admitted recently in one of her magazine issues that she's stepped away from her old "LDR" persona (I've got nothing to hide now.) As I've said many times before, it truly does seem like this album is meant to be a development from Born to Die. So many elements of LFL have been so reminiscent of it, except with her 2017 growth of mind. Here's a pico link if anyone wants to download. I also added the other take of "life's a dream" at the end. (Also, I think the lyric is "that's not my thing" rather than "not my fear") 20 Quote • 4.18.14 • 5.1.14 • 9.20.14 • 5.28.15 • 6.14.15 • 7.28.16 • 7.24.17 • 10.23.17 • 10.24.17 • 1.25.18 • 2.5.18 • 12.5.18 • 10.3.19 • 10.11.19 • 11.16.19 • SF • ATL • ATL • IND • ATL • CHI • LDN • NYC • NYC • DC • ATL • NYC • PDX • SAN • KS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Divisive Princess 3,754 Posted June 3, 2017 I interpreted her caption to mean that so many songs got scrapped, but this one made it. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
