i always think about this as a lullaby she would sing to her child because it's something she wished someone said to her when she was a child, so she's also singing to the child in herself, it's one of my favorite song of hers🥺
she also referd to it as a lullaby on instagram
we need her to listen to pawn shop blues!
A comfort song
@@phantomrenegade-f9p so true🥺 I listen to it like she's talking to me too😭
I think that too
wow when i listen to this song i don't really think anything of it except that it sounds beautiful but with your views on the song it has changed my view completely and i love this song even more now! I'm also a little lost on the song Terrence Loves You by Lana its definitely my favorite song of hers but i don't completely understand the song and its title maybe you could react to that song one time!!
Yes! I’ll definitely do that song :) I’m glad you see the song differently now too!
@@mendwithmere Thank you!!!
Eu amo o quão profunda é essa música.
This song is so personal and beautiful ❤ you need to check out 'Sweet Carolina', lana sings for her sister
Hey! Loved it, its one of my favourite songs of her. I'm sorry for asking, but could you please react to any song on Dance Fever - Florence + The Machine album?? They are all so deep and meaningful, just the most beautiful lyrics. Florence also had an addiction so she has songs about that, like Morning Elvis, about her after getting clean.
Sorry if I wrote anything wrong, im from Brazil, so English is not my first language.
Love you! ❤
Thank you for doing this 🌸 Sweet Carolina next?
Video Games was the song that introduced me to Lana so it really is a good song
white mustang music video next please
PLS DO CALIFORNIAA
I think she knows this kid.
Angelina is the name she’s wants for her future daughter
Was* now it’s clementine ahah
Isnt it Clementine?
@@aeas09 it’s both, but then again she always seems to change it so who knows now
@Simperwolf I think it used to be Angelina because isn't cherry blossom, an older song that she remade for blue banisters. The newest mention of her daughter's chosen name is when she claims it is Clementine.
@@aeas09 i agree with you
Lana often mentions wanting to have a daughter. Perhaps as a way to make up for her own mother’s mistreatment. Angelina is definitely about a future daughter or a miscarried child, the name is an allusion to an angel and the mention of ghost does hint at a miscarriage. The juxtaposition between her younger self as a child and her unborn daughter is chilling. She’ll be the mother she never had. This song is so personal and vulnerable yet so beautiful. A favorite for sure
I actually think your reaction is on point. The following song from Blue Banister is Sweet Caroline wich is a letter to Lana's sister/first born child.
I think you’d love Sportcruiser by Lana from her poetry book! It’s amazing ❤️ it’s her most underrated project ;-;
I just got that book today!!
Her book is amazing
Girl, that poem is beauty period
Yess
This! This! The audio version. Not only sings well but Lana is a wonderful poet reader(whats the word for, help me here guys)
In the song “Dance Till We Die”, she sings, “Clementine’s not just a fruit / it’s my daughter’s chosen name.” Don’t know about Angelina, but this verse always made me think she must’ve experienced a misscarriage.
angelina is the name she said she wants for a future daughter i believe
and the song have a baby which she didn’t want circulated + the relationship with her own mother all together mean the idea of motherhood is hard for her
and in fingertips? i think, she said that they said she wasn’t stable enough to carry a child
If I could, I would have you reacting to each and every Lana song. I'm a hardcore fan and whenever I watch one of your videos reacting to her songs there's always a different point of view that I couldn't ever think about, you know so much of literally everything as for the sycamore tree and the cherry blossom thing, it's just amazing and you deserve a lot more of viewers. Thanks for sharing with us everything. By the way I'm from Brazil, that's how far you have reached people with your smartness. Lots of love!
My thoughts exactly, she definitely deserves more praise!
Yeah, I really think it's about miscarriage. She did this song like 10 years ago, and it was always an unreleased, but then she decided to put it in this album. She said once while doing a live about this album release, that there's a word in one of the songs, that she never mentioned before and that explains everything. It just "sliped" into the lyrics inadvertently, cause there's some stories about herself taht don't need to be told. I always thought it was "Angelina", the name she gave to her baby. 💔
Truee
Excellent as per usual. I particularly love the juxtaposition of mentioning how the world is cruel, but that there is beauty in something as fleeting at cherry blossoms and sturdy and enduring like the sycamore. I love the idea of something being everlasting such as love for an unborn child.
Please do “Beautiful” from Lana off of “Blue Banisters.”
Yes! I’ll definitely do it! I love how you described this!
I love the piano and obviously Lana’s voice in the song “Beautiful”.
Can’t wait. ☺️
@@mendwithmereThank you! So excited to see it!
I feel like this is such an overlooked song on Blue Banisters, thank you for ur reaction❤
Agreed. I’m really loving blue banisters
I love all Lana’s albums but Blue Banisters is my favorite. The only song I sometimes skip is Dealer because it’s just too emotional.
@@mendwithmerethe most interesting thing is that so many of the songs were written in much different periods of her life. A lot of the songs on the album were unreleased that she decided to finally package into the album.
I think in this song she is being the sweet and attentive mother that she feels she never had. And of course she is being so to a younger version of herself. My conclusion is, somehow in this song she heals the wounds that her mommy issues have caused on her. And she doesn’t say Angelina. She says AND YOU LEAN ON your Sycamore tree ❤
spotify lyrics says Angelina, but « and you lean on » can be a double meaning
It's Angelina,listen again closely she did a little pause before saying "On your sycamore tree"
Lana also said it herself once in an Instagram post with the caption "Swing it high Angelina on your sycamore tree".
Even then,"And you lean on sycamore tree" doesn't fit with the previous lyrics,when she always refers her future child as "Cherry Blossom" in every chorus
Blue banisters gets shit on quite a bit because the production isn't as polished as some of her other work, but it has some of her most beautiful and most personal songwriting. "Thunder" is another of my favourites if you're looking to react to more!
Around 2014/15, Lana broke up with Barrie-James O'Neill, after about three years of relationship. Despite assurances of staying in friendly relations, Lana endured this separation hard. Cherry blossom was written in 2013 but not released until 2021 and Barrie worked on it. I had the impression that they had come to terms with something after years and had become close again as friends. When I first heard CB, it was like a puzzle popping into place in my head. I was kind of glad that you saw the same thing in this song as I did. Man, Lana is a really strong person, she's been through so much and still has so much light in her.
One of my most favourite song from Blue Banisters. HANDS DOWN. It's so emotionally strong and Lana's writing is so vulnerable I love it so freaking much 💓!!
I loved the reaction Mere! I hope you, your son are okay and I really hope you get that cutain fixed 🤞💞
I once had this song on repeat and cried for at least 3 hours... And then I wrote this poem:
Sweet baby, my little dove
Forgive me for my fallibility
Still rewriting the script of heredity
But, I know, when it comes to you
I’ll always start with love
Figure it out from here
Sweet baby, my little love
Wipe away all your tears
I’ll rock you, hold you near
Whisper a song in your ear
I know when it comes to you
I’ll always start with love
Sweet baby, my little deer
Couldn’t start anywhere but here
The love I’ll feel when you’re near
Whisper a song in my ear
Lull me to a place without fear
I promise, I’ll figure it out, right here
stop i Can hear lana reading this in her poem album. And this is an amazing piece you are a very good writer
@@maruch.07 thank you that's so sweet! I would love to write a song/poem with her one day
I never looked this song this way... so sad :( The following song from BB is Sweet Carolina that I think she wrotte for her sister by the time her sister was pregnant. If you take a look, please share with us your toughts. Thank you Mend
Your reactions always make me feel so emotional, love all of your reactions but Lana's definitely my fav ones. You're so smart and talk with so much kindness. brings me comfort ❤️🩹
I have been a fan of Lanas since about 2011-2012 and her music still touches me so much. This song often makes me cry, it‘s so sad yet beautiful
I love your interpretation always! ❤️
i never thought about this song that way.. great reaction per usual. keep it up
Can you do Bel Air and Terrence Loves You without a doubt one of the best Lana songs (if you can, read background of Terrence Loves You before listening it's really sad story)❤
i would have said that this song is just about a future child and how she’s going to be a better mother than hers was, and that the child’s name is going to be angelina (btw, she has a similar line in her song dance till we die where she says “clementine’s not just a fruit / it’s my daughter’s chosen name”…
BUT i recently found out about a rare unreleased song called Have A Baby; apparently upon leaking there was also something about her medical records of having terminated a pregnancy leaking and her managers got the police involved (i’m not sure how much of this is verified but it’s what i’ve seen several fans say and what is on the Lana Wiki), so i feel like that experience if it did occur couldn’t not play into the meaning of this song to her
She wrote this song back in 2013-2014. It was unreleased and leaked for about 8 years 😅. The studio version is pretty similar to the demo though
I love this song so much! I can almost see Lana pushing little Angelina in a tree swing, she would be such a great mom
Thank you for doing this song. It been one of my favourite lana songs since blue banisters came out. I personally think this song is about 2 things. One of them being about Lanas baby she sadly lost and the other of lana thinking back to her young self. Thinking how her mother figure wasn’t very good so she wanted to comfort her old self in memories. Possibly when she is referring to cherry blossom she is meaning how when she was a teen she didn’t think she would make it out alive (as we hear more about in the song fingertips) but now her in her 30s looking back and thinking about it. Maybe I’m wrong and ofc it is up to everyone to have their own interpretation. Tysm Mere for doing this song it means a lot!
Please do heroin I think you will love it
in an interview in the past she said that angelina was one of the names she would like to give to her daughter in the future... i honestly dont know if shes talking 'bout miscarriage since this song was written originally in 2013-14 (ultraviolence era), she also referenced to this song on instagram in 2016 as a lullaby, great reaction tho!
Cherry blossom is immediately before Sweet Carolina on BB which talks to her sister and baby blues for when Lanas neice was born, Cherry Blossom is 1 of Lanas older songs (a leaked unreleased track for a long time).
On a personal thought level, these references and also the Ocean Boulevard song (I Forget which) Lana asks if the baby will be ok, also asks her brother to stop smoking etc. Over the past couple of years the Grants have really closed ranks. Rob (daddy nepo, lol) and Chuck with her family are always close to Lana. Elizabeth (Lana) has a fragility and we know snippets of the trauma she has endured over the years, song writing may be here 'therapy' of sorts so these theories are likely to be close to, if not the exact truth. It would make sense that Elizabeth had been though something which has meant her family want to be by her side, always 😔
I used to play this over and over again till I fall asleep. Back when this song was still unreleased.
Such a beautiful song. ❤️❤️❤️
this song is said to be about a future child that Lana wants, specially because she's said that Angelina is a name she would choose for a kid. But I interpret some parts of this song as her singing to her younger self, especially the "little ghost, blond hair" (her natural hair is blond). Maybe a way to speak to her inner child and say it's gonna be alright.
I didn't have a mother growing up and this song makes me really sad, I know very well the feeling of missing a mother, but I don't know the feeling of being taken care of by one. This song brings me haunting lonely feelings. I love it but it's sad for me.
I think this song is about Lana talking to her future daughter and how she wants to be the mother she wanted when she was little.
Me and my boyfriend cry everytime listening to this song 😢😢😢
angelina & clementine are names lana wants to use for her children
I never thought of the song that way! Maybe you could do fine china by her some time :)
Sweet Carolina would be a very beautiful one for u to do❤
3:54 its crazy how good you are at this. you got all that from like 5 lines
Ik it sounds bad but „heroin“ is a rly good song of hers
Me and my mommy issues just entered the chat
I don't know if she had a miscarriage, but i heard this song was ment for her future daughter if she had one. Angelina is one of the names she wanted for her children
I would really love to see/hear your POV as a specialist on Lady Gaga's latest album "Chromatica", where she wrote about her mental health struggles. songs i can recommend are: Replay, Fun Tonight and 911 (the music video to this one is worth reacting to i promise)
Also i LOVE your videos so much. Thank you lots for uploading so consistently, it is greatly appreciated :)
I don"t think it s about a miscarriage. She talking to her younger self. She was physically describing the child, i don't see her describing an unborn child
well, you are dumb.. is about miscarriage, the baby she's lost, or about her future baby.
but about her younger self is such a dumb argument. you guys like to make everything be about herself when is not.. lana has a lot to say about a lot of things, you are limiting her from talking about things that were important to her.
Heroin and violets for roses
Pls do mitski “i bet on losing dogs”🙏🙏
In the song "Dance Till We Die" she also says "Clementine's not just a fruit, it's my daughter's chosen name" if that has anything to do with it
Thank you so much! I have definitely been waiting on this one! It makes me cry every time and really wanted to hear you break this song down! ❤
Love it!!! I’m waiting for your reaction of “Terrence Loves You” 🥹❤
For some reason, this song came across to me as a song about childhood abuse. "what you don't tell no one you can tell me" and saying don't give up.
Angelina would be the name of lana's daughter in honor of the city of los angeles
Thank you for this reaction. As someone who has gone through this three times in the last five years, I can say this song, and now your reaction, means so much to me.
I always think about this song about her future child that she always wanted to name angelina in case of anything happend to lana at least angelina has this song it's like a messege from her mom (lana)
I LOVE THIS TRACK
love bb def her best album so underrated
Hi! I would absolutely love if you reacted to Noah Kahan! His whole newest album Stick Season is amazing but i think you should at least listen to Call Your Mom and Growing Sideways, amazing songs🫶🏻
PLEASE listen to “life lesson”!!! It’s a new song from Jon Batiste and Lana is featured in it. Oh man the way that song brought me to tears.. I know you’ll love it!
I actually looked up the meaning behind cherry blossoms and sycamore trees. ❤
gonna tell you the truth even tho im tired of repeating it (it's been YEARS since I keep writing this SAME comment on every Cherry Blossom video and I'm tired of it) but I'm gonna say it: I think Lana once lost a baby :( and yes I'm sorry about it :( in her discography we can SEE that she really wanted to be a mother :( like on fingertips or etc. and I think this even before fingertips was released. yeah i think she lost a baby :( and that baby was called angelina and she was so ready to be a mother, but it never came true. idk i don't wanna keep going, think whatever you want to think, but I do think this song is about the child that she lost :( I mean "little ghost"??? c'mon. and I have more from where this come from, I just don't want to put this information here, I feel like it's too personal. but yeah, that's it. I love this one and I think is not only about this child she lost but also about all her fans, which she is a "mother" to. what you don't tell no one, you can tell me ❤️
you are so smart!!! your interpretation skills always amaze me.
We need Violets For Roses, If You Lie Down With Me, Wild At Heart, Dance Till We Die 🥹😭😭 please
Can you pls do blue jeans and the music video to correspond plssss
Love this reaction, the whole album blue banisters is mesmerizing , and I would like you to react to one of her poems of her poetry book ✨🙏🏼
Its a song to her future daughter😢
I remember when she sang this on her live and to see it on Blue Banisters was so amazing ❤
it's definitely about a miscarriage (or abortion). there's another song where she talks about it but i won't name that song because i think it's too personal
Yosemite and 13 beaches pleaaaaase
wow this is incredible, thanks Mare for sharing, on Tuesday I went to the Lana del Rey concert in Mexico City and I ended up falling more in love with her, I am very proud of the woman she is, it was a sold out concert for 65,000 people, it was magical ❤.
ua-cam.com/video/ggQVT0sVVFY/v-deo.html
there is a song called fine china its unreleased but its so good lyrically i know you would love it i would like for you to check it out
Rewatching every single one of your Lana reactions just to say that you are amazing and I love you
This can be seen with two perspectives and both are correct, this is Lana grieving the mother she never had and imagining how things would’ve been if her mom was present in her life, and also Lana is singing to a future child of her, named Angelina (although she has also said her daughter’s chosen name is clementine) either way both are beautiful
Omg this is my fav song of the moment thanks for have done it!!!
please do heroin by Lana Del Rey
Another beautiful Lana reaction love to see them
THANK YOU!!! OBSESSED WITH YOUR REACTION TO LANA 💔luv uuuuu
"things i wish you said" by Sabrina Carpenter, please, i'm really excited by how you will interpret this song!💖
Fine China Next!
Her spoken-word poem Sportcruiser would be interesting for you to react to.
im so happy that you share these reactions with us
id love to see more Ethel Cain videos if possible; also love the Lana ones ❤
i went through something simular last year, this song came out almost 2 years ago and it made me cry when it first came out and makes me bawl now lol. I dont listen to it often but one of my favourite songs by her
Water colored eyes next please
This might or might not be related, and you're welcome to draw your own interpretations, but in the 'Shades of Cool' music video, there's a scene where a cherry blossom tree starts to blossom, followed by a sudden gunshot...
Your reaction is o point, I never thought about this song like this. It would be great if you did Tropico
you should do “in my feelings” next if you haven’t reacted to it yet!
ua-cam.com/video/ggQVT0sVVFY/v-deo.html
Mere, please listen to the Björk song Stonemilker, and Dark but Just a Game by Lana Del Rey. They’re amazing songs. ❤ Have a good one
How to disappear plsss!!!
I've known at least two women who had a miscarriage. It's sad.
thankyou for this reaction. this song is so neat and dear to my heart, just so tender 🤍
I think it’s about her sister (or someone close to her) having a miscarriage. She sings to both the baby and mother. “What you don’t tell no one you can tell me” would not fit if it was about her own miscarriage. Plus, back to back she sings about herself being here and mommy being there. Two different people.
the curtain is ok, let the light in
i think you should look at her poetry book, there’s also a vinyl version.
Uraaa!! My reaction queen
♥️
violets for roses pls plspls!!!!
I heard that Lana wrote it as a lullaby for her future baby and she also said herself that "cherry blossom" is hers and her sister's favourite baby name sooo-?
My favorite video of yours so far, Mere. You opened up a lot of thoughts on this song. Beautiful. Thank you.
