Swift’s new screenplay, Mean Girls, the Geriatric Millennial’s Version. And then following that up with a variation of the classic “new phone, who dis? She’s been on SNL so many times that Lorne Michaels is practically part of her squad (the first one, not the new one). But for every funny Lonely Island cameo and charming late-night anecdote Swift has delivered, there’s been an equal number of clunky dad jokes and cringe interview quotes. So I was quite surprised when I started laughing out loud multiple times throughout the first half of TTPD. Two days later, he released a music and lyric video for "Buried Alive," which depicts him breaking himself out of a crate that happens to be on a spaceship.
Genius is the world’s biggest collection of song lyrics and musical knowledge
An interview with Dr. John Covach, music professor at the University of Rochester whose free online courses have become wildly popular. The co-writer/guitarist on many Alice Cooper hits, Dick was also Lou Reed's axeman on the Rock n' Roll Animal album.
An Official Recap of Team Chance on The Voice Season 25
“But Daddy I Love Him” takes dead aim at the millions of people, including Swift’s parents, who did not want to see the pop star end up with the volatile and problematic frontman of the 1975. But as Swift confesses in this scorched-earth banger, she loves him and doesn’t give two shits what anyone thinks about it. Picture Swift, drunk on Healy’s nicotine-stained kisses, telling her dad that she and her new sentient cigarette of a boyfriend are pregnant, then immediately saying, “Just kidding! It’s “Leader of the Pack,” if the Shangri-Las wrote it while they were locked away at Shutter Island. “Momma was a cold drinker in the ’70s,” Snoop Dogg told Thrillist in 2017 during a rollout for a famous brand of gin the rapper was promoting, on the origin of his cruising classic. “They used to have parties at the house in the living room with a bar, with the 8-track cassette player.
More From the Los Angeles Times
“There’s always been a difference made, as far as Beverly Hills and the rest of the city, all the way down to Rodeo Drive. In the ’hood it’s ‘Rodeo Drive’ but in Beverly Hills it’s ‘Ro-DAY-o,’” Howard Hewitt said last year. The former Shalamar member and platinum solo artist moved to Inglewood from Ohio in the mid-1970s with $34 in his pocket.
In 1970, John earned his first national attention in Los Angeles when he tore through a string of shows at the Troubadour in West Hollywood. Famously, John credits The Times’ then pop music critic, Robert Hilburn, whose rave review helped boost the artist’s trajectory. The superstar songwriter has been connected to the city ever since. His longtime lyricist, Bernie Taupin, set this classic ballad on Sunset Boulevard, as well as the beach at the boulevard’s western edge. John introduced “Tiny Dancer” to the world at the Greek in 1971.

On April 24, The Voice coach dropped the track "Buried Alive," his first project since his 2019 album The Big Day. In November 2005, the Los Angeles California Temple closed for a seismic overhaul and renovation of the baptistry, reopening July 11, 2006—the same year as the 50th anniversary of the dedication of the temple. The two-month public open house for the Los Angeles California Temple attracted 682,361 visitors, who toured the magnificent structure.

From the perspective of popularity, this synth-funk track from the Eddie Murphy comedy “Beverly Hills Cop” is hardly in the pantheon. As delivered by then-Shalamar lead singer Jody Watley, the song addressed, in its own subtle way, the racial disharmony that plagued the region in the early ’90s. It’s like Taylor Swift woke up one day and decided to ruin the Eras Tour for every girl still young enough to believe in long-term monogamous love. It’s giving Lover House on fire, and I, for one, am living for these raw, day-three-of-your-period lyrics. The very best line is the kicker, in which Swift fires a warning shot at the incoming freshman class of pop-star girlies. She may as well have written, “I’m going to eat you alive, Olivia Rodrigo,” but “Try and come for my job” is just as good and leaves a little room for plausible deniability.

Rihanna claims that "S&M" is about her love/hate relationship with the media. Apparently her paparazzi are using whips and chains. To be clear, official lyrics for the track have not been released by Kendrick, at least not as of this writing. When discussing the meaning behind the title of his second album, Star Line Gallery, in 2022 he explained on Sway in the Morning the deeper meaning behind "Star Line".

The 257-foot high Los Angeles California Temple looms over famous Santa Monica Boulevard in Westwood. The spacious grounds are filled with a dazzling array of foliage including—to name a few—Canary Island Pine trees, several varieties of palm trees, Bird of Paradise trees, olive trees, and rare Chinese Ginkgo trees. Two fountains, a large reflection pool, and several family-themed statues further beautify the grounds. North of the temple is a public visitors' center that showcases a representation of Thorvaldsen's Christus statue and also houses the popular Los Angeles Family History Library. The temple grounds are all aglow at Christmastime when thousands of multi-colored lights decorate the numerous trees and features.
She’s the funniest, most vicious friend in your group chat. From the Matty Healy insults to the self-aware shots she takes at herself, here are the funniest, most outrageous lyrics from The Tortured Poets Department. Not too long after moving to L.A., Hewitt and his cousin were cruising in his Monte Carlo and, after eating at a Mid-City McDonald’s, decided to explore. “We’re two young black men riding through Beverly Hills in a car with out-of-state license plates on it,” Hewitt says, laughing. Despite the volume and variety of lyrical references, a Google search of “songs about L.A.” invariably turns up the same dozen songs, “I Love L.A.,” “Straight Outta Compton,” “Free Fallin’” and “All I Wanna Do” among them.
At the root of all great comedy is self-awareness. That’s why we say, “It’s funny because it’s true.” Swift’s description of herself as a toothless witch “levitating down your street” shows that she understands the mockery the media has made of her. In fact, she’s laughing a little too loudly, and it’s making the rest of us a little nervous. In fact, she’s hilarious—especially when she has zero fucks to give and nobody to perform in front of.
Former staff writer Randall Roberts covered Los Angeles music culture for the Los Angeles Times. He had served various roles since arriving at The Times in 2010, including music editor and pop music critic. As a staff writer, he explored the layered history of L.A. Music, from Rosecrans and Sunset to Ventura Boulevard and beyond. His 2020 project on the early Southern California phonograph industry helped identify the first-ever commercial recording made in Los Angeles. The project features essays, interviews, portraits and quick primers on the past 25 years’ worth of crucial songwriting about the city.
World War II delayed construction of the Los Angeles California Temple for many years. During that time, plans for the temple were revised to include a priesthood assembly room and to accommodate a unprecedented 300 patrons per session. The presentation of the endowment was originally delivered by live acting in the Los Angeles California Temple. It was the last temple designed for live acting. Anyone who listens to the 1975 and has suffered through years of Matty Healy’s antics knows that the dude was ripe for a takedown. He’d been asking for it, and who better than Swift to deliver the total knockout by reminding Healy he’s a fuckboi, not a poet.
"Buried Alive" comes with Motown-inspired strings and gospel backup vocals while the passion in Chance's voice builds in intensity through the song. The Voice coach gave us an intimate look into his personal life with his poetic lyrics. In 2003, the Los Angeles California Temple was reverted to a progressive-style presentation of the endowment (still using film). The Terrestrial Room was completely renovated. If anyone ever asks me what it’s like to be in your mid-thirties, I will simply recite these lyrics.

The Los Angeles California Temple was the first temple to include a priesthood assembly room and angel Moroni statue following the Salt Lake Temple. The spacious assembly room seats about 2,000 and features three pulpits on each end. Unfortunately, I don’t think Swift was trying to be funny when she wrote this ode to her new beau, Travis Kelce. But not all humor is intentional, and sometimes the most cringeworthy lines are genuine knee-slappers.
Let us come together in the house of the Lord and give Him thanks and praise. Let us not be quiet in our worship, but instead shout out His name and sing His praises. Let us find joy in the house of the Lord, and let us remember that our God is surely in this place. ChurchofJesusChristTemples.org shares construction news, photographs, maps, and interesting facts about the temples of the restored Church of Jesus Christ. This is the campiest, craziest song Taylor Swift has ever written. I get the sense it may be her most truthful, too.
