Creyk 17,805 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 MTWBT is a cute song but far from being the strongest on the record. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds flat and does not belong onto the album. The Other Woman had a place on Ultraviolence since it contributed to the story, and Blue Velvet on Paradise because it was used in the H&M christmas commercial. This however, is unnecessary and does not add anything to the album. ---Rater's comments--- @Sunshowers Lana loves a good Nina Simone, doesn't she? Not as good as The Other Woman, but almost. The organ(?) and violins make this. @AJK273 This is probably one of the best songs on the album and its because it is a cover. This song should've been in the middle of the track listing because it gives air to the album. Overall this album is messy in spots and this song is what should have been the album. @sethrb101 If I remember correctly, this is a Nina Simone cover. It's listenable, but I don't love it. @Moebius I love that organ in the chorus one of the highlights for me @Evan Peters bad, horrible, who let this on the album, untalented, dumb, idiotic, boring @PennyroyalTea Giving this score (5) cos I very rarely listen to this song. The cover in itself is not that bad, but she has done so much better ones too... Maybe it's just as an answer to Swan song (she's not quitting music even though the song has hints to it depending how you interpret it) and maybe to the media backlash she got during Ultraviolence, she's been misunderstood many times in her career since the beginning. I find it unnecessary on this album. ---Scores--- Lowest: 1 - @Steve Nasty @Evan Peters Highest: 10 - @Trepadation @Peto @Sunshowers @FFXSoul91 @Creyk Girl, I gave DLMBM a 7. 😝 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lona Delery 7,214 Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 Next up is a very acoustic song, the production being mostly light guitar chords - the good sis God Knows I Tried with a total score of 7.685 ---My personal comment--- This song does not do much for me, and I find it to be the worst of the album. Upon release, I was obsessed with it, but the repetitiveness of the chorus kills the song for me now, sadly. ---Rater's comments--- Trepadation: Perfection Sunshowers: My second favourite Lana song ever. So beautiful and tragic and perfect. I like to listen to this whilst on a bus, alone and during the night. Versus: pretty when you cry's chronically depressed older sister - if brooklyn baby didn't exist this would be my favourite lana song of all time AJK273: This song for me gets really repetative, I do love some of the imagery in this song but after a while I just think can this instrumental pick up the pace or add a horn or something interesting. sethrb101: A solid song like Music To Watch Boys To, but nothing too special for me. Moebius: You tried and you served sis Evan Peters: me when i don't try in the slightest and then pull a farrah moan and complain about everything PennyroyalTea: I do like this song, the despair feels in the song so strong... I would give the song a higher score if in the chorus wouldn't be so repetetive. ---Scores--- Highest score: 11 - Sunshowers, Versus Lowest score: 1 - Steve Nasty Sometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind, I wanna get off but I keep riding the ride Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lona Delery 7,214 Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 Now we're getting to the song everyone thought would drop out a lot sooner. It is the very James Bond-esque... 24 with a total score of 7.786 ---My personal comment--- I love this one. The way it builds up and explodes into the outro is gorgeous. Way better than Samantha's actual Bond song ---Rater's comments--- Trepadation: Sam Smith could never, this is how you do a 007 song Sunshowers: Why wasn't this the James Bond song that it was destined to be?! It would've been perfect, and the SALES, girl. A true loss for Ms. Bond. AJK273: I love 24 like I gave birth to it. It is a great jazz track and is so big and exciting. No more words the proof is in the pudding. sethrb101: I loooove jamming out to this one. Moebius: 24 hours on a day yet I still can't find the time to listen to you Evan Peters: reminds me of the 1920/30's so it's an instant like for me. ChavaWM: boring mess ---Scores--- Highest score: 11 - Trepadation (Hope this is correct now hurrdurr), blackstar Lowest score: 1 - Sparky, Steve Nasty Sometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind, I wanna get off but I keep riding the ride Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
