Random Lana Discussion Thread

[GeminiLanaFan]

There's just one thing I really don't like and that's been ocurring for the last years - her live performances.

Like, it's not that I don't like them, I just don't like the fact that we can hear the studio version louder than her actual voice. I miss the 2012/2013 live performances where the only thing we could hear was the instruments and Lana's voice. Now she skips verses, we hear the studio version louder than her actual voice, that's not nice. 

Can't argue with that. She is uneven from one venue to the other. Sometimes, she's on top and other nights, not so much. I know she considers herself more of an «album singer» rather than a «live singer», but still. To her defense, doing festival tours sure doesn't help have the best volume to her voice, when these things are an orgy of singers or groups going one after the other with little to no time for audio adjustments that weren't  predetermined in rehearsals.

true, but i'd argue that she hit her live vocal peak in 2014-2015, and most of the 2016 performances were quite good too. From 2017 on it's been a downgrade

i know this is unrealistic but PLEASE no more backup dancers...

i know this is unrealistic but PLEASE no more backup dancers... 

And PLEASE live vocals without the studio version underneath

[maxthehitman]

please we just want some drums... we will literally shut the fuck up if there are drums.... PLEASE

 

 

and a  Ukulele song version

What happened to White Hot Forever... didn't love the title but I still liked it more than the Chemtrails one. WTF is this. Is she trolling or trying to be 'political' again?

 

 

She is being totally political.

 

Lana Del Rey for President 2021

Lana Del Rey for President 2021

(I just couldn't help it luvs, it's just a joke, I don't consider Lana racist, just mock the Twitter mess)

I believe she is merely describing (as a poet) exactly what is happening with the world RIGHT NOW and its public leaders.

@@gatadelrey are u brazilian too? hahahaha I always ask myself when I see your username

[gatadelrey]

@lucasb I’m not, I just really like cats lol

Also it wouldn’t let me quote you and respond to your question that way. So weird.

[UltraviolenceBaby]

I just hope we get a boxset this time.

We got one for each album (I only own the LFL one) and then she slapped us in the face by not releasing one for NFR.

 

 

im still pissed off for not having a nfr boxset

since im a huge collector and i have all of her boxes it pisses me off to be cut off by nfr ugh

If she at least re-released the lyric book and Paradise tour book. It was her only tour book, right?

Interscope should make something for the new era...

 should we say that to ed on his ig? 

she has three books (brown leather, green, blue)

but they were sold out years ago

she rly needs to release a new one instead of her venice bitch cropped tops they were so random like they'd fit the surf shop why are they on her official merch smh

I don't follow any of her managers, but I agree we should say to them what we would like to have in the merch store. Let's be real: those crop tops are ugly as hell (and I love to wear cropped shirts to hang out on summer)

i hate her tops but im a collector aka cursed

they're ugly and looks cheap yet they're so expensive i've bought one for $50 and it worth $10 it looks really really cheap 

 

i think we really need to tell her managers

OMG they're really horrible hahahahaha

I never said anything, good to find someone who thinks they're ugly too.

They're not worth even $20. $50 is simply insane!

Thanks VeniceBambi.

Very interesting to hear/see that video. 

 

Each person will always have their opinion(s) and may find a deep need to make a long video about it.

Why the need for such a video ?

There has already been too much talk about it. A biilion words written about it across the internet.

Let´s just rest it in its place in history. Let us move on.

 

Like Bono (from U2) used to tell their fans at their concerts... " There´s been too much talk about this next song....

This is not a rebel song... this song is Sunday Bloody Sunday "   

- h**ps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EM4vblG6BVQ

 

I can't believe the news today

Oh, I can't close my eyes

And make it go away

How long?

How long must we sing this song?

How long, how long?

'Cause tonight, we can be as one

Tonight

I actually like watching longer videos that go through the topic/controversy completely, even if it seems late- all the better to get the perspectives. 

I think there is a need for these videos (I haven't watched it yet but I'm about to so I might correct myself if I'm wrong later and the video sucks), because watching something like this can help me navigate through the billions of words written on the topic.

 

I like watching things like this when Im done talking about it. It helps me level out my final opinion and then move on. I hate leaving my last thought on comments that can be read differently to how the person intended them to be heard.

"Lana Del Rey has Lana Del LOST IT"

It's a good video, I watched the whole thing. 

The only thing I don't agree with is that she strategically did this to get more attention for her album. 

I think what she expected was responses from her fans like:

"Yay Lana is taking back her voice and is gonna sing about her fragility like she used to! Can't wait for the new album" (which is what I foolishly first thought when I first saw the post, despite feeling a bit strange about the opening sentence)

Not the response she got from the wider community like:"Lana is trying to promote her new album with a huge controversy on feminism and race".I don't think she expected that at all and she is probably more worried about her career than ever, despite saying it's not affecting her. 

 

His other analysis is really good though, like her reactions and especially how he goes through the video she posted. On point!
