Whoopiedoo Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Not much is really known about Lana's childhood, right? Raise Me Up is the only song that actually speaks about her relationship with her mother, or how it was in the past, didn't seem like it was a good one. 1 Quote

Tyler Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 I feel like she and her mother have a slightly awkwardish relationship. I think Pat seems like a much more . . . conservative woman than Lana is. I once read in a magazine that Lana said her mother told her as a child to never wear to much make up, and not to wear any to bed, which are too things that Lana has completely disregarded for her whole life. Lana also mentioned before how she sent Paradise to her relatives, and a lot of them were taken aback by Lana's . . . . harsh language in some songs. That doesn't necessarily mean her mom felt that way too, but I wouldn't be surprised. It also has sounded like Rob supported Lana's music career a bit more than Pat did. Just some thoughts on the mom thread. 2 Quote
Monicker Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Shall we invite Pat over to this thread for some insight? I bet she'd love to comment. Pull up a chair, Pat, please. I bet Rob & Chuck regularly rock the fuck out on 4 hand piano, tearing up the living room and setting it on fire, while Lana is off in a corner being all doom & gloom and giving Momma Grant headache after headache in typical oldest child fashion. Lil brat Lizzy. NO WONDER U WERE SENT 2 BOARDING SKOOL 6 Quote "The limits of my language mean the limits of my world." -Wittgenstein

Just some thoughts on the mom thread. yeah i do too! i feel like liz is such a daddies girl (even though her past relationships with older men beg to differ) and well pat was just like wtf no girl wear your clothes no smoking wtf is that alcohol so basically i feel like liz was a devil child (to pat) Shall we invite Pat over to this thread for some insight? I bet she'd love to comment. Pull up a chair, Pat, please.

PrettyBaby Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 weak azz browza. Yeah, pretty much :/ Honestly, I wouldn't read too much into songs like "My Momma." As with many of her other songs, we have no way of knowing the extent to which it's autobiographical, or based on friends' stories, or entirely fictional. (My money's on Lizzy having met some interesting people in her lifetime.) Just as an example, "My Momma" is more powerful if written as the narrator's personal experience then it would be as, say... My friend's momma would say she had deceived this guy she's totally into Hey I wonder would her momma be too So glad it's them not me Tee-hee 3 Quote

As a writer is very hard to not use who surrounds you as material. I always have the feeling that many of her songs as the narrator are actually about others. Once I saw a comment of Lana were she said that when people didnt like the album or the songs she felt sad because was like people didnt like the the story about the lives involved in the songs. She didnt said they dont like ME. I always thought that about a lot of her material but that particular comment of hers was a good click 2 Quote
Ray La ana Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 In alot of her songs she mentions her dad and I havent heard her saying anything at all about her mom Did her mom abuse her, Did she abandon her ect... ???? 0 Quote
TrailerParkDarling Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 I think her mom was kinda cookie cutter tbh and would have preferred Lizzy be a debutante instead of a rebel girl. but who rly knows their history besides lana and patty, I'm sure her mom is proud of her 8 Quote *** People call me crazy but I'm in demand ***
phahad Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 her mother used to beat her every night because she went out with older men and had unprotected sex 9 Quote
