PrettyBaby 2,220 Posted April 8, 2013 I hear this too. But I still hear "sold them all" Oh no. Now I'm hearing it too. My entire vision of PSB is teetering on a precipice of disillusionment and... Wait a minute. "All" two of them? One pair, two earrings? Or is she selling multiple sets? This is all just too overwhelming 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sonicalana 254 Posted April 10, 2013 This song has a message that you don't get often in lana's songs: education and having your own life is more important than having a husband/boyfriend. Not saying that her songs usually have bad messages but i'm proud of her for this song 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alone@Midnight 29 Posted April 21, 2013 For me, it's Lanas number one song. A true masterpiece.. I 100% agree it's definitely the best song on a.k.a, and my favourite song of all time by her! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack 2,920 Posted July 22, 2013 tbh i i cry almost everytime I put this song on, i truly love it, its so bittersweet and honest, and very strong of lana to let go of something so important to make her life into a work of art 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sweetie 6,628 Posted August 3, 2013 According to David Kahne... "A story about Lizzy selling he earrings in a pawn shop in the Bronx. It's such a strong image of loss and strength in the face of it, and of taking responsibility for our own faults" 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

evilentity 13,351 Posted May 10, 2014 The live version of this, with the extra 'god damn, god damn' line is so heartbreaking Great minds: Some other fun facts about Bryan Dunn and Emily Rawlings: We got the heartbreaking live version of "Pawn Shop Blues" from the WLSC 2006 Compilation CD when Emily posted it on their tumblr. I love the "goddamn, goddamn" part on the bridge of this performance of "Pawn Shop Blues". Heartbreaking. I wish she'd kept it. 2 Quote Stalking you has sorta become like my occupation.

siren 20 Posted May 10, 2014 i always connect this song to ride, because when she says "i knew that it takes getting everything you ever wanted, and then loosing it to know what true freedom is" its almost a reference to loosing things like this that meant alot to her 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
