This. Politics/social issues are not her thing

I think BPBP has the most tastefully done lyrics in terms of making a statement ("green is the planet from the eyes of a turtle dove, 'till it runs red with blood") but when she's direct, it becomes a cringey mess

Right! BPBP isn't her best work but it's still a good song and it managed to capture that spacy/witchy aesthetic whilst being subtlely political. I enjoy God Bless America as a song but i've never really cared much about what the songs about, i get the whole women empowerment thing which i think is very beautiful, but it's not always something i wanna hear when listening to a lana del rey song. I think she could still pull off political music but she just needs to find a way to execute it better and allow it to fit into her genre

Yes I think these kind of lyrics should be more subtle because she's pretty straightforward, it's so simple that it does makes one cringe. (See: if we hold on to hope, we'll have happy ending")

Same, this song has been through enough

But we need to know what kind of money I'm curious tbh what his parents do, maybe he has a sugar daddy cause that shit's pretty accessible and pays well, and tbh I wouldn't doubt it from a lana fan LMAO.

 

Possibly haha, why not eh and he probably learn't from Lana himself  .

 

 

Would it even be legal for someone younger than 18 to have a sugar daddy? Also that wouldn't explain how all his friends manage to afford it either, i think maybe he's just from a rich area

 

He might just have rich parents, so yeah you could be right about the rich area thing.

 

Probably illegal but then its not like he would be getting in touch with the government to pay taxes for that surely so I doubt it even matters haha.

Coachella has been ageing like fine wine. LFL (song) is an instrumental masterpiece, but still her weakest title track overall. 

This is everything I've ever wanted to say

I like her talking about politics and social issues,  cause she is in the right and it's important,  but singing about it?  Maaaybe nah

 

Yes thank you for that about BPBP. It's a timeless anthem

why did i read this in rose mcgowan's voice

[HollywoodHills 452]

LOL I thought some random person found a video and put white mustang over it, but the guy in the video put it all together

 

 

This is what most Lana fans would do if they had money

 

So cringeworthy

[Make me your Dream Life 87,865]

i don't believe a single word she says anymore

 

i agree with kali: actions speak louder than words, go and show me what I've heard

It felt like that, like a joke of some sort, it's hard to trust

[Sugar Venom 9,658]

i think win if that’s his name and his friends are selfish and spoiled and i get annoyed seeing them lol i wish they would stop and let other people have a chance

I am happy she is speaking out politically, but I wish she wouldn't make her albums about politics. It just isn't what she does best, and it is not nearly as beautiful or artistic as her other work. I don't think she is great at writing songs with a 'message' really. I think her best songwriting is when she channels her feelings and experiences and explores fantasy and vision rather than the real world.

i don’t understand the hype for Get Free, its one of my least favorite on the album

Bad post tbh

i dont agree that its overhyped but i DO think the way she sings "this is my comittmeeeeent, my modern manifesto" sounds boring and uninteresting and kinda wish i could skip it everytime     

[Wynwood 19,967]

Bad post tbh

 

thats why I'm the 1st bitch and you the 13th bitch

[cashcomesquick 5,381]

Coachella is actually one of Lana's rare tracks that will age like milk. It really isn't a great song at all, there's no denying that. The lyrics are nice but even if the song wasn't ruined by that horrific production, it would still not age very well at all. Who the heck will care about North Korea and the "tensions over country lines" in about a year or two? NOBODY

 

 

Reading this seriously hurt my brain
