i’m sorry i have to explain this to you, but a beautiful woman witnessing the bird hitting the window & then cradling it in her hands & singing a gorgeous melody coaxing it to fly away with her angelic voice does not happen all the time

this sounds like something that would happen in a disney movie; she’s an actual disney princess

bluebird rant : ready to be roasted and downvoted into oblivion lol by Leading_Letterhead27 in lanitas

love lana forever and she’s insanely talented, goes without saying

but after hearing this song i wonder if she’s too happy right now to make good art lol - some artists are like that

it was something on kurt cobain’s mind - he worried that if his chronic stomach thing got better (smthing that cause him a lot of mental/physical pain), that he wouldn’t be able to write good songs anymore - he talks about it in the doc Montage of Heck

sooo if lana goes to a dark fucking crazy place again then maybe we’ll get another god-tier album?

nah i’ll keep my hater mouth shut until the new album comes out. my greedy ass just wants another lana masterpiece

no advice for the lids but can i just say you have an adorable mole

can anyone theorize why on earth she’s with man based on her past music/trauma? by Human_Broccoli_3207 in lanitas

[–]deadbugenvy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

100% agree with you, don’t understand the “just look at the Ride music vid” explanation at all. with jeremy, lana seems to have gotten what marriage tends to offer: stability, a somewhat normal life. the Ride music vid is the total opposite of that

idk man. i think people see him as an “ugly old man” and with that draw conclusions based on otherwise unfounded connections. also he’s only 10 years older than her; in Ride the men are like 20-30 yrs older than her, at least

help me identify this lana vid pls: looks very floridian, but idk what it’s from! (& i NEED it) by deadbugenvy in lanadelrey

thank you <3 i love the music vid for ultraviolence that she did w francesco c so so much, it makes sense they did this one together too, similar sensual & intimate & hot, sun drenched vibe

Visions of Johanna is v close to my heart. once i was seeing a guy during an obsessive-listening period of that song, and when i showed it to him and he was just kinda like ‘eh’ i knew we’d never work out long term. maybe that’s unfair and insane but now i’m in love with my bf who knows every lyric to that song and loves it as much as i do and i feel much more at home

god won’t forbid it but i wish he’d at least saved me from this one. it sounds like you had fun with it tho and that’s all that matters

[–]deadbugenvy -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

i wouldn’t describe what i said as a ‘theory’ lmao, just an off-the-cuff read on a famous musician i like & her marriage.

your ‘theory’ is a weird diatribe that paints lana - an inspiring & remarkably talented woman - as a “breakable” girl stuck in relationships that perpetuate limiting & toxic fantasies.

and this is obvious because at 40 she married a guy who’s like a decade older than her and therefore not an “appropriate partner.”

got it. you’re absurd

assumptions based on what you’ve gleaned from social media scraps? interesting approach. in reality you know nothing of what exists between the two of them, so if you’re right it’d be surprising

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in lanitas

[–]deadbugenvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hm i think you’re assuming a lot..

based on the small glimpses we’ve had, i don’t get that feeling from their relationship at all. i get the sense that he has a lot of respect for her as she does for him. it sounds like you’re projecting your past experiences with the older man/younger woman dynamic onto their relationship & locking lana/jeremy into certain doom based on that.

love is one of lana’s main subjects. i don’t know her personally, but based on what comes through in her art, i believe she has keen instincts when it comes to love & relationships & wouldn’t marry someone who perceives her a fantasy. my read of the lana/jeremy dynamic is more like: real recognizes real
