annedauphine Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 It's absolutely gorgeous. I love her so much, I've watched several interviews and documentary a while ago since she was very close with my favourite band ever CocoRosie and she's a great inspiration. Lana talked about her several times too and seeing the connections make me really happy. Her voice hallucinates me. The video for Drown Bomb Me is gorgeous too! 2 Quote

annedauphine Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 oh where link me ? On top of my mind here's this, she also said she wanted to kiss her (and misgendered her) but I don't remember which interview it is it's pre-fame one http://www.dazeddigital.com/music/article/11702/1/lana-del-rey-bad-girl-blues http://bullettmedia.com/article/lana-del-rey-video-games/ Edit: found it http://www.indexmagazine.com/interviews/Lizzy_grant2.shtml 2 Quote

vesperteenflare Posted January 22 Posted January 22 What a stunning voice, I could listen to her forever. 2 Quote
domandapiano Posted January 22 Posted January 22 She’s incredible. One of my favorite artists of all time. I’m going to see her in DC in March and considering everything happening in America and the world I can only imagine how powerful it will be. 1 Quote
Get Drunk Posted January 22 Posted January 22 Anohni is one of those artists who will forever be remembered as one of the greats, no matter her commercial success. I’ve adored her since I first heard Hope There’s Someone, everything she sings feels like she’s on my exact wavelength but in reality she just sings about the human experience. I’ve always wondered if using Naomi for DBM was intentionally contradictory, given Naomi’s controversies (eg blood diamonds), or it was just for the obvious. 1 Quote
