    Norman is all about escapism. Each song talks about different ways to escape from reality and problems. The cover features a burning America, a painted sky, and Lana sailing away with a man on a boat. This is literally the cover of escapism. Lana does not want to see the new America, because she knows that it will end in fire, and instead of these worries she decides to run away to sea
    , presenting America as illusory, drawn by an artist. THIS IS JUST GENIUS

    I've been a fan of Lana for many years, so I know all the songs you're reacting to. But you still manage to find new things and meanings from the songs even on your first listen! I'm not a native english speaker so some metaphors just fly over my head. That's why I love your reactions to the songs because you can interpret the songs so well! Also I love how watching these reactions just feels like we're friends and hanging out listening to Lana. You're doing such a good job on these videos and I can't wait for your reaction to the last three albums 🫶🏼

    The links to alcoholism in her songs, in how to disappear specifically, is referencing her past. Lana struggled with alcoholism and drugs during her teenage years so she was sent to a boarding school which is also referenced in ‘this is what makes us girls’. She decided to pursue music and went through many stage names (may jailer, sparkle jump-rope queen, Lizzy grant) before finally deciding on the name Lana Del Rey. Also, her given name is Elizabeth Grant which you may noticed on the song credits, she doesn’t have any children currently, but talks about the name clementine (dance till we die - chemtrails over the country club) and Angelina (cherry blossom - blue bannisters). It you want to know more about her past I would recommend listening to her audio book and her most recent album, dykttatuob. Love your reactions btw.

    This is my absolute favorite Lana record, stumbled upon this video and I am so impressed by your lyrical analysis! The Mariner's breakdown you did was spot-on, I love when a listener can break down a song into pieces and then fit the puzzle together like you did. It's so cool to watch, especially as someone who had to look up meanings and listen to the songs many times over to get them.
    Keep doing what you're doing, and don't sweat how long it takes to get through each song. Enjoy the music at your own pace, it makes watching so much more engaging when you process it like you do.

    Hi, Cass! Love your reactions of Lana's albums. One fun fact about Venice B*tch is that Lana showed up with the song for her managers like "I think this is my next single" and they told her "are you kidding me? It's called Venice Bitch and it last 10 minutes? Why can't you make a 3 minutes normal pop song?", but she told them "it's end of summer and some people just wanna drive around for 10 minutes and get lost in some electric guitar"
    She really knows what we need, and it's my very favorite song of hers.💙

    So California was written about Barrie James O'Neil, one of Lana's exes from around 2011. The songs Black Beauty, Flipside, Thunder and more were about him.
    Barrie struggles with depression which is one of the reasons they broke up. I just find there love for eachother to be something else, even to this day they care so much about eachother. He even privately messaged another reactor who does Lana to thank him for appreciating her music which is just adorable i cried when the guy said Barrie had messaged him. He's an artist too and helped make a lot of her earlier songs, and even to this day he still does lives on instagram covering her songs. Barrie is Scottish so thats why she says 'if you come back to America'. He's also the guy who gave her the line 'pussy tastes like pepsi cola' lol

      @@housekinokuni903 So I looked this up. In sailing, a “board” is a a distance covered by ship or vessel in a single “tack”.
      “Tack” here refers to “an act of changing course by turning a boat's head into and through the wind, so as to bring the wind on the opposite side”.
      So I think she’s saying, when he steers his boat/his life into a challenging direction, she will be there to carry him through it/help him navigate this challenging distance. While also admitting she can be the lighting and thunder as well. She will help him through whatever, but she can’t promise it’ll be smooth sailing as she’s a complex character also. I think this makes sense that Lana might know these terms as did have sailing lessons before as mentioned in her poem Sportcruiser - and she has made many sailing references since this.

    Norman Rockwell was known for his depictions of American culture. To many, he is THE American artist of the 20th century due to his subjects of small towns, Every day American life, and other Americana influences. many of the songs on Lana's NFR take inspiration from American culture during the end of the 2010's. She speaks a lot about the current state of America which kind of reflects back onto how NFR painted this perfect American image. The cover is supposed to reflect a NR painting, but if you look in the back the landscape is on fire and she is reaching out to you to pull you into safety.

      A woman like Lana would've had *so* many options to settle down with a guy who wants to also settle down and have kids, she just, well, chose to date men who were not that man, ultimately.
      By which, I mean she was attracted / drawn to / dated emotionally unavailable men, dark-triad f-boys, and "manchildren" who f her so good that she almost confesses love. These men excite her, but these men are not the ones who're gonna give her a stable life with a family. Many such cases.
      It's a sad situation, but I see it across the board with Millennial women. They date the 'hot manchild' who has more red flags than a Matador festival, and then get shocked/surprised when said men - inevitably - screw them over several months/years down the line, or reveal that they never had serious intentions to begin with.

      @@Amicitia- Not at all. I'm not specifically referring to any of her exes that were abusive. Merely just that they were not the 'family man' types, and that they evidently had commitment issues. This is evident given that her lyrics specifically express this throughout multiple albums, particularly NFR.
      Nobody deserves to be abused, obviously, but it's not a discussion of whether someone's 'at fault' or not. It's about taking accountability for the type of people we date. I used to date a psychotic girl with daddy issues, who treated me hot n cold, toyed with my feelings etc. I was well aware of the red flags going in, but I chose to stick around 1) because she was very attractive and we had great physical chemistry. 2) I thought she might 'change' and 'calm down' for me. Obviously, she didn't, and I got hurt. But it was a learning lesson for me. Obviously she was a shitty person but I was also foolish for staying in the relationship for as along as I did, knowing the red flags. If i now, years late, continued chasing after the same types of women, I'd be an idiot. Doesn't 'make me deserve' the abuse, but it does mean I lack accountability for choosing partners who align to what's healthy for me...
      A bit of a rant but I just dislike this idea that any recognition of someone repeatedly picking partners who are poor choices for them = "they deserve abuse!" thats the reach/conclusion you're making from that, so. Yeah

    This album was on repeat every single day for me for about 2 years. I basically dead listened to it because it is so perfect. Def her best album and one of the best albums of ALL time. The fact that it didn’t get a Grammy is a travesty.

    @shreynoot 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    I love how lana has a lot of lyrics that could be heard in different ways and it makes sense either way. Like in F it I love you, I always heard the outro as “drugs is in my veins, running out of time” because of how the song started with living in an unhealthy way and the whole apocalyptic vibe of how it progresses. But this is the first time I saw the lyrics reported saying “jazz is in my veins” which just makes sense knowing lana and her soul’s musical influences

    she always talks about drinking or being wasted, she had a drinking problem when she was 14 but she’s actually been sober for a very long time now. in her poetry book she mentions she hasn’t been drunk for 14 years (which makes it 17 or 18 now i think) so I think it’s important context to know that even throughout albums like BTD and ultraviolence, she was sober (from alcohol at least). That makes me think that the “I’m wasted” (or whenever she talks about being drunk tbh) has a double meaning and not just the one we associate with alcohol.

    I don't know why but it makes me so happy to watch people being so excited and happy listening to NFR for the first time !! And you know what I get it this want to take your time and almost drag each album to really enjoy every single minute of it cause you don't want the journey to end !! It's so relatable and just shows how much you care about Lana's music and also it gives you enough time to get familiar with the songs before moving on and be able to connect the newest songs with the older ones

  • @austinrichards5643
    @austinrichards5643 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

    The final lyric of the greatest is incorrect, it’s “oh, the live stream’s almost on.” She said it’s like snapping back to reality.
    As if the song is just daydreaming for a few and feeling disconnected from the culture she considering going back to NY. Then snapping back to life and doing a live stream.
    Excited for ocean blvd! I think it’s better than the next two albums. It’s nominated for 5 Grammys!!!
    And no it’s Chemtrails next, not blue banisters!!

    this is her best record so far for sure. and venice bitch has been making me emotional since the day it was released. for me it's her best song. it takes a lot to make such a long song feel like it's 4 mins max, and the instrumental is risky af. it's genius, i feel like i float when i listen to it.

    Lana had an intense relationship with Barrie James O’Neil that was ending as she was writing Ultraviolence. A lot of that album was about him. It ended due to his depression and drug use. Lana couldn’t get through to him and make it work. They used to make amazing music together, and Barrie made songs about Lana after they broke up. Angel Tears and Riverside are really good songs that he wrote about their relationship.

    Obsessed with this album, I always love your interpretations to her lyrics I feel like even after hearing this songs for years I get new meanings and understandings from your videos! Also, if you’re open to suggestions for other reaction content I’d definitely recommend Preachers Daughter by Ethel Cain. It’s a concept album, following themes of religious trauma, generational curses, toxic love and even murder. Incredible story telling, haunting vocals and melodies, and all self written/produced.

    1:13:24 for my perspective, I think that she’s describing the American dream. Since Trump won the elections in 2016, Lana change her perspective of the American dream, realizing that it isn’t real and it will never be real, and also realized the damage that the US had made because of capitalism (climate change, war, etc.), when she says “Kanye west is blond and gone”, she’s referring about when Kanye became friends with Donald Trump, and with that reason, he became part of the white capitalism supremacy.
    The greatest was the first song that make me wanna listen to Lana del Rey, and every time I listen to it I can see my misunderstood younger self who thought the world was fvck up. It was also the first song that make me cry, and I cry every time I listen to it because it gives me a lot of nostalgia even tho 2019 wasn’t my best year.
    Lana for me is that person that says to you that it’s ok to cry, I don’t find her depressing, for me is like a safe space where I can think and know about myself and my feelings.

    I could write an entire dissertation on this album. There’s so much to say about it. My fave songs are probably Venice Bitch, How to Disappear, and Hope is a Dangerous Thing. To me, those are all connected through the ideas of the beauty of mundanity and learning to be comfortable in the peace.

    @CarmenNevada 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Love your reaction!!
    "Running out of time" means she is running out of time to get married and settled because she is focused on making money/her career in California.
    She recorded Doin' Time because she was asked to do the cover for a Sublime documentary and then she decided to include it on the album. I always thought it makes sense in the context of the album, but a lot of her fans think it doesn't fit sonically.
    It's kinda funny that you mentioned "when you know, you know" in context of relationships cause (slight spoiler) that's a big concept for one of the songs on her latest album. :)
    In "the greatest" she is talking about the (loss of) culture in 2019, like Kanye West going mad, LA fires, the false missile in Hawaii, going to Mars and the final line just means she is going on an Insta live stream (she used to love doing those back then)
    In "hope" she is talking about her past being an alcoholic. The line 'serving up god in a burnt coffee pot for the triad' is talking about Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.
    The next album is Chemtrails, it was released in early 2021. She finished it in 2020, around that time she had a bunch of controversies happening but Chemtrails was already done by that point so she immediately started working on Blue Banisters which addressed some of these controversies and started diving deep into her family traumas and past. That's why they were released so close together, she said she still felt like she had a lot more to say which she didn't get to put on Chemtrails. Blue Banisters is the first album where she is truly starting to reveal about her past traumas, but it's mostly scattered and hidden between the lines. Finally with her latest album Tunnel under Ocean Blvd, she is just spilling ALL the tea.
