Creyk 11,717 Posted July 29, 2017 Lana talked about the meaning of the song in her recent Sun interview: A standout track on Lust For Life is the anthemic 13 Beaches, a song about Lana escaping the limelight on an empty beach. “I love that you notice that track,” she says, smiling. “It seems like a luxury problem but it’s this abstract concept of needing to go to so many beaches just to find one where no one is there. “For me, so I can use that space — that actual, physical space and time — alone to think and to write and meditate. “That was definitely one of the earliest songs, where I was still feeling a little bit impeded by being more noticeable in public.” https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/4116134/lana-del-rey-new-album-donald-trump-politics/ 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueJeans 2,608 Posted July 29, 2017 Beautiful song. I still twitch at the whistling, it's a bit pitchy in my opinion ! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Dean 950 Posted August 3, 2017 To me those lyrics speaks about some unreal love (platonic), and maybe why they cant get along 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

reputation 6,321 Posted August 17, 2017 This song really makes so much more sense when you listen to it on the beach.. Went to AC today & had my mind blown. Wow Such a strange song. Doesn't have much context which makes it weak I really thought.. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Say Yes to Heaven 27,600 Posted July 3, 2018 Just found out through filtering that they use a sample from High By The Beach in 13 Beaches. They slowed it down and changed pitch a bit - Probably some moderate effects but it's nice to hear considering this is HBTB's less enthusiastic twin sister. http://picosong.com/w9tmS 11 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Say Yes to Heaven 27,600 Posted July 3, 2018 oh my god i had no idea what time stamp is it at in the full song? In 13 Beaches its at the 2nd pre-chorus In High By The Beach it's in the chorus Also I probably shouldn't sample - Just the same instrument used in a super similar way! Still pretty cool 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AnarKissed 281 Posted October 10, 2021 ^XIII beaches, 13 is the Death card in Tarot. ^The connection is the lyrics in both songs:....honey I'm dying....I'm Dying.... 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
