I'm gonna sue Lana Del Rey for singing about blue jeans, blue jeans are sacred in my religion I just made up and it hurts my feelings :laughga:

This is why I think it should be a single and there should be a video.. Just the demo has already created a stir.

It wouldn't be good controversy, unfortunately. It would be similar to Judas but worse. People are more tolerant of artists using Christian imagery - they have practically no tolerance towards artists using Islamic imagery, despite the fact that both acts are essentially the same thing.

Ah Hitchens, such a shame he passed so young.

I think Judas was a good controversy for her. People just didn't like the song. I didn't, but I liked the controversy. And the video did get over 100 million views. Plus EOG did well right after it so I don't think it hurt her.

Neither of her religious related controversy was good for her because at the end of the day her inclusion of religion in her music and aesthetic was totally superfluous. So she just looked silly as opposed to provocative. Judas was one thing, but this really irritated people and not in a good way. She would be a fool to include this song on the album regardless of how catchy it is.

These women have no idea about what the song is about :smh:

"An excuse to take over Muslim lands" :lmao: Delusional. It's just a song. It's not overs-xualizing women.
