IanadeIrey Posted July 27, 2020 Posted July 27, 2020 "She made special mention of one such individual, Jane Powers. “She’s a real estate agent. I met her seven years ago in New York and I loved her. I really wanted to be a singer. I would say, ‘I don’t know what’s going to happen.’ She’d say, ‘God didn’t save you from drowning just to beat you up on the shore. All you really need is patience when you have persistence.’ She’s just an angel.”" from https://entertainment.inquirer.net/163131/lana-del-rey-i-was-very-wild#ixzz6TQFKRec6 <3 15 Quote
Elle Posted July 27, 2020 Author Posted July 27, 2020 The melody of the bridge "I got guns in the summertime" reminds me of the Summertime Sadness background vocals - 5 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 • 8.6.23 • 9.21.23 • 10.1.23 • 5.17.24 • 5.19.24 • SF • ATL • ATL • IND • ATL • CHI • LDN • NYC • NYC • DC • ATL • NYC • PDX • SAN • KS • CHI • AL • MD • AL • AL

PARADIXO Posted July 27, 2020 Posted July 27, 2020 Oh my fucking god :defeated: Best birthday present "I never meant to be bad or unwell I was just living on the edge Right between heaven and hell & I'm tired of it" this fucking KILLED ME!!!! 6 Quote
Trash Magic Posted July 27, 2020 Posted July 27, 2020 This song was definitely born out of her mommy issues and how Jane was a guiding light in absence of a maternal figure. Interesting it should leak now as she has been more vocal about it this year. The mystery grows... 12 Quote "It's 2011, and we should all be aware of exactly how fast technology is developing" - Lana Del Rey

Easily one of my faves of her. This song overall is pretty good, just imaging someone making you song about as a thank you for everything... A pretty nice sentiment 0 Quote

Jeanne Dielman Posted September 18, 2021 Posted September 18, 2021 It's not a surprise that Lana included this song in the new album and, in fact, put it after Wildflower Wildfire and right before Cherry Blossom - all songs share a similar theme about maternal figures / motherly love (or lack thereof). 6 Quote
trailerparkdream Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 one of my favs of all time now classic Lana could have fit right into UV <333 1 Quote
