A legend. Misunderstood by the superficial brain dead that hand out Grammys to equally superficial and barely talented people. Money buys Grammys. Cult like fans that are obsessed buy mediocre music which in turn buys the Grammy. Some singers are just a brand. You know who I mean. But Lana has real talent and is a legend.
Pre-Song] I was in the winter of my life And the men I met along the road were my only summer At night I fell asleep with visions of myself dancing and laughing and crying with them Three years down the line of being on an endless world tour and my memories of them were the only things that sustained me And my only real happy times I was a singer Not a very popular one I once had dreams of becoming a beautiful poet But upon an unfortunate series of events saw those dreams dashed and divided like a million stars in the night sky That I wished on over and over again, sparkling and broken But I really didn’t mind because I knew that it takes getting everything you ever wanted and then losing it to know what true freedom is When the people I used to know found out what I had been doing how I had been living, they asked me why, but there’s no use in talking to people who have a home They have no idea what its like to seek safety in other people For home to be wherever you lie your head I was always an unusual girl My mother told me that I had a chameleon soul No moral compass pointing me due north No fixed personality Just an inner indecisiveness that was as wide and wavering as the ocean And if I said I didn’t plan for it to turn out this way I’d be lying Because I was born to be the other woman Who belonged to no one Who belonged to everyone Who had nothing Who wanted everything With a fire for every experience and an obsession for freedom that terrified me to the point that I couldn’t even talk about it And pushed me to a nomadic point of madness that both dazzled and dizzied me
I love this. I also really enjoyed her book. I bought it in hard copy and then in audio version so I could listen to how she expresses her words. It was beautiful
This monolog and song bring me to tears every time I hear them. I'm 40 and I fought really hard to stay alive and have a stable life. But this reminds me of her. Her as in me. She kept me alive and I look back and miss myself. Life is stable but it will never feel as right as the streets did.
She’s talking about truth freedom. Literally she’s like an angel ... in the wrong planet, dimension. She’s a more advanced type of human being. She has evolve great !! She wish we all could find freedom and live life as it is , and not the way we do... thank you Lana .
I love this song very much I miss being shirtless and being with friends or high asf I miss making $$$ back in the day riding bikes crashing in bushes haha
Anyone else likes this performance better than the Eurovision final one? Her vocals here are slightly better (although already quite flawless) and the entire stage lighting is brighter
