[@salvatore2004]

My faves are white dress, chemtrails, wild at heart and not all who wander are lost, still haven't clicked with tulsa jesus freak but I'm trying to let it grow on me

[@sherthetruth]

Love those choices! I think wild at heart is close to being another fave. Excited to keep relistening to the album!

[@davidh8999]

I read somewhere that Lana's reference to "Candle in the Wind" means that she doesn't want to become like Marilyn Monroe and Princess Diana, who Elton sings about in the song. Lana doesn't want to let the fame get to her like It did Monroe, and doesn't want to be attacked by the press like Princess Diana was. If interpreted this way, the lyric relates heavily to other tracks on the album, especially "Dark But Just a Game"

[@melodyvalentine8779]

Does she me sing that lyric again on this album? She says it in Mariners Apartment Complex aswell "I ain't no candle in the wind"

[@melodyvalentine8779]

She's just mentioned it just after I posted my comment 🙈

[@anotherhaze277]

i see it as she doesn’t want her fire blown out, light snuffed out the way they were both murdered by the elite.

[@OfficialPrettyLittleLiars]

Your point about whether she is thinking back when she use to play for free is a good point, specially in the context of White Dress (and the whole album) rethinking fame and what it means for her!

[@marciovelho747]

I got say that I just adore the way you match your make up and clothes with the album's covers!

[@arlesque]

My thoughts on the album- (This album is a steep grower) Lana is basically "contemplating throughout the album" hence the title track and the title of the album. She starts with White Dress remembering how it was pre-fame for her and then it progresses and reaches a point (very different) to Tulsa Jesus Freak/White Hot Forever (detailing her relation with her ex- he is a Christian and works in Tulsa OK but originally from CA) it was also supposed to be the album title which would've taken it to a more relationship-centric vibe but instead she focuses on broader subjects including love, her place in society as an artist (WAH, DBJAG, etc), touches on her misconstrued image by the media. She is figuring out whether it's worth it or what? (If they'll love me, they'll love cuz I'm wild at heart) It seems like she found a tight-knit circle of women in music like Joan Benz and Stevie Nicks (Track- DTWD) and she will continue on with her career and will keep going and then she closes the album with a mic drop- Track 11 (For free) It shows the biggest reality of the industry. The best/most real of albums and musicians are never looked at cuz they don't play the dark fame game it seems like that's the route she will take as well. All this she is contemplating under the chemtrails over the country club (where her journey from white dress has brought her-Track 2) Hence, she named it Chemtrails Over The Country Club (refer to the lyric on the song) She said in her interview that this album was about she felt like she didn't know where to go. On this album she focuses more inwards rather than outwards as it was on NFR. So, instead of why America is not the greatest now she is onto what American Dream has done to her, how she is suffering because of it. It’s very confessional.

[@JottaVictor]

Wow!!!!!! So much depth. Loved it. Totally what the album represents ❤️ thank you

[@marciovelho747]

I love love love how honest she was about her career and life in this project. also how minimalistic and in a certain way pure in production. it's like we're able to seen her completely for the first time. I think NFR still is my favorite one from hers, but COCC comes right after

White Dress is just the epitome of gorgeous summers full of happiness and nostalgia, sunset drinking in Florida, more specifically Homestead for me. Ugh this just is my heaven!!

[@kevinaleman1735]

I did read that when she says Arkansas she isn't talking about the State, for that she she says Arkansas in a different way, because the people who live close that river have 2 different ways to say the name of the Arkansas River, and also I think is right because the name of the song is Tulsa Jesus Freak and Tulsa is a city of Oklahoma where the Arkansas River goes through.

[@samueldennisLCSW]

I live in Tulsa and it was so surreal as a fan to see pictures of her around town. She was here from time to time with her boyfriend.

[@phillip9730]

She could also have just pronounced it like that to rhyme with “Jesus”

[@TheLexlle65]

Fun fact, Yosemite was made for her Lust for Life (which is my favorite you should do a video on it!☺️) but they considered the song too happy for Lust for Life. I find that weird because I consider LFL to be her most hopeful album. Maybe I shouldn’t equate hopeful with happiness?

[@TheLexlle65]

P.s. before you listen to lust for life, look at the album trailer video! It really set the mood in 2017.

[@Euphoris]

Its funny how everyone in the Lana fandom has a different view - I absolutely dislike L4L except the last 3 songs!

[@TheLexlle65]

@@Euphoris that’s true, everyone has a different opinion on her albums. I think it depends on which ones connect best to you as far as the themes and such. Also every album has its own sub genre besides alternative- like Chemtrails with country, honeymoon with jazz, lfl with r&b

Waiting for this 😭😭 on white dress it’s intended to sound like when she was 19, and she was in fact a waitress. She’s talking about Joan Baez! They’re good friends. For free is a cover for Joni Mitchell and Lana explained that she loves this song because when she was starting she played for more than free and she only was doing it for the love of art so your perspective to the lyrics was on point. Loved the video so much!! Next time react to Ultraviolence by Lana!! ❤️❤️

I think this album requires some listen to fully get all the songs and the details that are going on. Where NFR was a really outgoing and open album, this one feels way more intimate and kinda like a live-lullabye experience (in this sense reminds me of honeymoon). I really enjoyed it !

[@sarahmatteson7247]

Tulsa Jesus Freak makes me think it’s definitely about her relationship with her ex boyfriend Sean Larkin who was a Tulsa, OK police sergeant. He is on the show Live PD! Just clicked for me!

Also please react to Ultraviolence, Paradise and Born to Die: you will notice her growth in terms of dependency from another person, which you already noticed here!

[@Kimteach2011]

Thank you for this excellent reaction! The Joan Lana is talking about is Joan Baez. Also, on the Nikki Lane duet, I wish you had talked about the Tammy Wynette reference. She was a country music queen that lived tragically due to her choice of husbands especially her last husband. Tammy's daughters blame him for Tammy's death. There were rumors he was emotionally and physically abusive to her. A sad story.
