Lana Del Rey says Radiohead are suing her.

Goofle 01-09-2018 03:31 PM

Depression, boredom and anxiety should sue Radiohead.

Machine 01-09-2018 03:32 PM

She lied apparently lmfao

Ah it wasn't clear to me what she had ripped off but now it makes sense.

Goofle 01-09-2018 04:21 PM

Weyyyy

Inna Selez 01-29-2018 11:20 AM

Her next song will be called “Bartender”.

So bummed about this-- I'm a fan of both Lana and Radiohead, but I do think "Get Free" is a bit too close to "Creep" and she should have credited them from the beginning. She can do better...

AllieCat17 05-04-2018 08:30 AM

Getting sued by Radiohead? Well, that's just unfortunate :(

Scarlett O'Hara 05-06-2018 03:25 AM

She'll be like I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo, what the hell am I doing here, I don't belong here.

Lana probably voted for Trump anyway.

Listened to NFR earlier. Not that impressed but I'll give it another go as I was distracted.

Of the two albums we were discussing in Billie Eilish's thread, Billie's is the masterpiece.

DeadManHBK 05-22-2020 07:13 PM

So I am going to be honest. When I first heard about her in 2012, and was seeing all this hype around her, it made me not want to give her a chance. (There is just something about seeing an artist everywhere that makes me want nothing to do with them.) Then, one day my friend was playing her on his computer...and I immediately fell in love. I love her so much. 'Born To Die' is easily one of my favorite albums - 'Radio' is one of my favorite songs. Both she, and her voice are so beautiful.

A few days ago I was reading a critical piece in the Guaradian that somehow made it out that her original post was racist and I absolutely couldn't believe how anyone could read it as that and then I read this and it seems like plenty of other people have?? So bizarre, even before reading Lana's "defense" it was so very crystal clear to me she was mentioning the artists she mentioned as a positive example of women singing about whatever the fuck they want and it just so happens that most of the top female artists today are women of colour. How on earth did that turn into a racism row?? And also from the Guardian, Jesus.

It must be exhausting being a celebrity. :/

Frownland 05-24-2020 07:22 AM

It's pretty blatantly racist dawg. "Why can these dirty black whores shake their asses with zero criticism [sic] while a luxurious, glamorous, classy white woman like myself can't sing about my relationships without getting universal support?"

The self-centredness and seeming lack of self-awareness surrounding her post is more annoying than any potential racism. An artist at her level should know that critics ain't **** and that she's giving them more attention than they ever would have by being overly defensive and turning this into a thing.

goldendoodle 05-28-2020 07:22 AM

I've always suspected that she's not very bright. Where is her publicist? With each rambling statement she just dug herself deeper into a hole. "advocacy for fragility"??? I'm assuming she's just upset over a handful of reviewers rightfully questioning (I mean, Lana is now in her 30s, so the whole "help me I'm a sexy baby" schtick is getting old and weird) some of her more cringey lyrics. She barely does any promo and isn't a very good live performer, yet she is still doing extremely well and received praise and accolades for her last album so what is the issue? (And why on earth would she drag FKA Twigs into this-- Lana, you merely leaned against a pole in a music video for the ~aesthetic, you are not a trained dancer like Twigs) And I wish she'd pick up a book and read some Andrea Dworkin or something. She seems to confuse actual feminism with like internet Buzzfeed pop-feminism.

So much this. "There needs to be space in music for women who look like me" ARE YOU KIDDING?!

Yeah, I mean, she's a feminine, conventionally attractive white lady; she is already accepted and included by default. And then all her talk about "paving the way".. Um? There are a bajillion other female musicians of yore who made """delicate""" lovelorn music about difficult relationships. So I wonder if she's simply upset that she doesn't have the same amount of commercial success (or general star power) as Beyonce or whoever/feels entitled to it despite the fact that, again, she is very lazy when it comes to promo and performances. And her music isn't as radio friendly, anymore, either. (All her albums sound the same to me, tbh) So.. what does she expect.

adidasss 05-29-2020 02:03 AM

Actually, I didn't go too deep into this discussion but it seemed to me she was reacting to criticism of her music as being anti-feminist, which is why she felt the need to explain that there should be space also for women like her to sign about whatever they feel like without being accused of setting back the movement. Which I think is correct, is all...:/

Mindy 10-08-2020 07:32 AM

I think she just released a book.

adidasss 04-29-2021 06:51 AM

So Chemtrails didn't make a big splash I think and now she's got another one coming out. Let's see if that one is better. Didn't think much of the first one myself to be honest.

:bowdown:seems to be settling down with her Fellow now, would think the stories about her are the usual blown stuff/rubbish

Mindy 09-05-2021 08:34 AM

i love lana

DianneW 09-05-2021 02:18 PM

I first heard Chemtrails and loved it...
this one is part of a posting I made on another general forum..

Lyrics:

Here’s the deal
'Cause I know you wanna talk about it
Here’s the deal
I promise you, like, a million tomorrows
Here’s the deal
What I can promise is I’ll lie down
Like a bed of wildflowers
And I’ll always make the sheets
Smell like gardenias wild at your feet
And I nourish you hazily

Baby, I, I, I, I’ve been runnin’ on stardust
Alone for so long
I wouldn’t know what hot fire was
Hot fire, hot weather, hot coffee
I’m better with you
It’s strange, but it’s true, darling

Not to turn into a wildfire
To light up your night
With only my smile and nothing that burns
Baby, I’ll be like a wildflower
I live on sheer willpower
I’ll do my best never to turn into something
That burns, burns, burns
Like the others, baby, burns, burns, burns

Here’s the deal
'Cause I know you wanna talk about it
Here’s the deal
You say there’s gaps to fill in, so here
Here’s the deal
My father never stepped in when his wife would rage at me
So I ended up awkward but sweet
Later then hospitals, and still on my feet
Comfortably numb, but with lithium came poetry

And baby, I, I’ve been running on star drip
IV’s for so long
I wouldn’t know how cruel the world was
Hot fire, hot weather, hot coffee, I’m better
So I turn, but I learn (It from you, babe)

Not to turn into a wildfire
To light up your night
With only my smile and nothing that hurts
Baby, I run like a wildflower
I live on sheer willpower
I promise that nothing will burn you
Nothing will burn, burn, burn
Like the others, baby, burns, burns, burns
Burn, burn, burn (Like the others, baby)
Like the others, baby, burns, burns, burns

It’s you from whom I learn, learn, learn
It’s you from whom I learn, learn, learn

What is not to like..mostly bad gossip.. ..causes 'worser' bad gossip....

What about Blue banisters?

Melodically I feel like she's on a downward spiral. She had a great run but it was bound to happen one day.

DianneW 11-02-2021 05:34 AM

I enjoyed listening to it, depends on your expectations and mood as well.
I use to really dislike say, Liam Gallagher, and now he has grown up a tad I find him ok. Musically he is at his best right now.
If you're looking for something different from an artist, often just go and find some newbie who might be more fresh....

Well Chemtrails has definitely grown on me, so maybe Blue banisters will too? Time will tell.

Don't think it can beat it as Chemtrails is a great fantasy build up, the way it leads you up the garden path and explodes into a whole new meaning..it was that bite of the apple that done it... lol




Have a Beaut of a Day here, the sky is a brilliant blue and the sun came up early and although was only 6 degrees the Sun made it for me....

DianneW 11-06-2021 06:03 AM
