Well I now know why her hair and makeup are serving past-era vibes… they were done by her OG hair and makeup artists Pammy Cochran & Anna Cofone! She switched hair artists in 2018 to Sheridan Ward and her makeup artist to Etienne Ortega in 2020. The classics are back! x

I'm shaking and moving

friendly reminder… let’s not judge a song we hardly know anything about yet!

piano ballads pt 4 incoming

She's serving this energy 100%, Italy is just the Lana gift that keeps on giving

She's giving such 2013 vibes in these omg. I'm so obsessed with this look

almost all songs start with a piano just to figure out the melody… plus he literally said he was ALSO playing with 808s during that session. i swear some of you see the word “piano” n ur brain just shuts off

I love when she randomly remembers she’s a celebrity lol

She hasn't served this hard in YEARS

Do people realize that—throughout Lana’s career—many of her songs have started as voice memos (or even just little melodies she’d hum) that were later assigned chords on piano and then repackaged with different production once the melody and chord progression was figured out? This process is neither new to Lana nor specific to Jack. Toying around with lyrics in the studio, using voice memos, going in the studio for fun, etc. aren’t measures of work ethic, inspiration, or quality. In fact, Antonoff (and other producers/engineers) himself has talked about her stubbornness in the studio. An artist with little care or motivation for her work will not fight to see it manifested how she wants it. Anyways, I’m super excited to hear what they’ve cooked up!

if you save this you owe me a birthday present

GLAMOUR LANA IS BACK!!!!

With Mark Ronson who recently mentioned his unreleased alternate demo of Terrence Loves You in an Instagram comment the other day -

You piano haters are so dumb its funnnyyyy when writing songs, usually people accompany with just piano, it’s a process lana give me strength

I don’t think that necessarily means that song is a piano ballad. I think the recording process for a lot of songs start off with just piano or guitar and more gets added later. Rick talked about the recording process with Lana once and mentioned a similar approach.

Chuck is such an extra queen here oh lawd That Chinese dragon pattern on her dress tho, really screaming "I'm a dragon - you a whore"

We want Rick Nowels NOW!!!

I don’t think it’s the difference in opinion that’s fucking absurd here its the fact that people will bash a tease of a song that we haven’t heard just because the producer said he started playing piano when she started ad libing where does the energy to be so fucking negative come from when we literally haven’t heard anything i used to dislike lfl but I don’t come around fucking shit talking it every time someone mentions it Get some new ideas and btw we know at this point it’s not the producer that’s making these decisios, it’s Lana so if you’re going to hate someone it’s her, and at that point you’re not a fan so keep your mouth shut

I’m assuming that they worked on the song April 2nd when Jack posted the tiktok of Lana outside Henson Studios. Can’t wait to see what’s to come! x

Yay another piano-driven song by the most unimaginative piano player in all of Lis Angeles

Iconic x

It's so funny that Jack is blamed for the piano ballads LOL It's also so funny that people are complaining about another piano ballad when we know literally nothing about the song other than the fact that Jack has a piano in his studio

Why are people freaking out? (In a "not him again" way. Obviously I understand being excited for our first real confirmation of new songs). We already knew Jack was involved in the album and we don't know anything about the song(s) Also piano is basically the starting point of every song. Is the best instrument to start composing on and accompany a raw melody so that doesn't mean it's a piano only ballad (and we are definitely getting a couple of those anyway)

at this point i don't care who the producer is, we're winning

we all know white dress came out of lana adlibbing in the studio so i am EXCITED

Last night, Lana Del Rey attended the Gucci Cosmogonie event at Grotta Palazzese in Polignano a Mare, Italy. While there, she also celebrated the birthday of Thai actress/model Davikah.

What’s with these expectations? when you let go of anything like that and you’re experiencing an artists journey in her own art, I find it so enjoyable We literally have no control over what’s to come, why build these fantasies enjoy her while were here because one day this will just be nostalgia

Single announcement when... It's getting so boring... every week the same shit Please, get your shhh together...

What? Jack is not playing multiple instruments simultaneously during a live take?

NO MORE TRACKSUITS NO MORE BARN YARDS DRESSED LIKE A PUTTANA IN ITALY GIVE US EVERYTHING QUEEN

From IG @voguethailand, don't know if they are the original source but I didn't find it in higher resolution.

You’re sweet dont get me wrong I used to be a piece of shit when it came to Lana, I was comparing everything to everything then I would go back and listen and think to myself why the fuck was I being so weird No one does it like her, so I’ve let go of that mentality of nitpicking and comparing and saying ah she should do this and do that waste of my time and makes me enjoy music less and why be negative in any aspect it’s so exhausting

obsessed Jack haters LOST

Ugh Lana in Italia just feels so right. I wonder if a summer home over there is calling her name

i'm annoyed with the people complaining about it possibly being a piano ballad. a new song is a new song 🤷‍♀️ someone on insta is already calling it trash. just because it's not what you want doesnt make it "trash," i actually loved the piano ballads and i'm excited nonetheless. hopefully they release it

This energy belongs in the LDR9 thread cause girl it ain’t jacks idea. Blue banisters is mostly piano ballads with no Antonoff credits in sight.

The last time they went down that approach, we got White Dress, so I’m not too worried.

It really is fascinating how differently people hear things because NFR is the absolute opposite of claustrophobic to me, it's an open breeze over the ocean.

Jack loves iN oNe Take so he can fit the other 15 girls he's working with into his schedule

VENICE BITCH WHITE DRESS THE GREATEST MARINERS APARTMENT COMPLEX i am manifesting these kinds of energy in this collaboration! PLEASE JACK IT UP, DO NOT JACKOFF THIS TIME JACK ANTONOFF!!!

Not yall already gatekeeping her... on LanaBoards of all places.

I’m bored at work, so let’s recap what we know so far (feel free to correct me if I got some things wrong; I’ll edit the post): confirmed: - Jack and Drew are involved on the album. @lustforlife had confirmed Drew’s participation on it a couple of days before she posted about him « charting ». - she wore that DNC jacket with the logo of a wave back in December. That jacket is custom and could resurface in future merch according to the guy running LDR village. She called the next album « better than BB » according to a fan she met that day. A few days ago, she said to another fan that she was « excited » for the project she was working on. - Rob hinted at the album a couple of times. We know he will play piano on it, and called the project « epic ». He also said that there were beautiful songs about San Francisco on it. To be confirmed / could be false: - a magazine cover was hinted by Lana herself a couple weeks ago in a HM post. Leakingmusic on Twitter also said that a magazine cover was in the works (could simply be the same conclusion we drew based on her post). - what is Rick’s involvement on the album? Based on the fact that all of her projects had a bit or a lot of Rick (even BB, with his involvement on Cherry Blossom), it should have at least a bit of his genius on it (he commented in some DMs with a fan, about future projects with her, with a couple of emojis - even if it looked like my father discovering the emojis on his iPhone ) - our own departed @lustforlife said that there was not only piano on it, that if we loved Buddy’s Rendezvous, we’d love the direction of LDR9. He also hinted at some touring, if not a world tour (when she posted a selfie with that Irish singer). He also said that Lana and Mike were on « different vibes »since January. - @DragonWhore’s claims: beachy, a bit lazy, with some trippy elements and some looming « menace », like the pot growers in NoCal. The album was pushed ahead and Del Norte County (I guess it’s the name of the lead single) would be out in July. The album wasn’t supposed to be out before at least six months, but plans changed. @fl0r1dakil0s called him a liar multiple times and called the new songs « boring ». - a couple of unreleased tracks seem to have circulated in small circles and we’re hinted at on Twitter, around the time BoZ hinted at WCE. According to Honeymoon on Insta: there were three other tracks summited to Euphoria but only WCE was picked up. It would make sense that these tracks would be the leftovers from Euphoria and they maybe could be part of LDR9 (especially if Drew had a hand in those or even Jack, if LYTAN was part of the lot). - cryptic Insta stories from her « entourage »: « Lana » could have been heard singing near a pool in a famous hotel in SF (I don’t remember who posted that one; was a MV already filmed??); there was also Neil Krug’s story last week that could maybe be about Lana but unlikely.
