A new Lana x The Weeknd collab would be so exciting Lana x The Weeknd on January 24th and then the first TRPWS single (Henry, Come On ) sometime in February would feed us quite well And I do think we will definitely get another interview around the time she will release Henry, Come On, in which she will spill about more tea about the album to slowly recreate the buzz around the album again

technically, it's an EP, but i think of it as an album just like born to die or ultraviolence

the weeknd x lana being on abel’s final project and the speculations about it have been more exciting than the entire TRPWS era so far

It is a separate project. Though I still view it as an EP rather than an album. Lana said in 2012 interviews that it’s a separate body of work (than BTD), and the EP has a separate tour, era etc. Kinda bothered me when people merged paradise as a part of BTD Plus… paradise is 100000x better than BTD…

all I'm hearing rn are the different ways to say that we want new music

I rather have the feeling that the negative things are built up too much and all the positive things she does are quickly forgotten.

okay have a nice one

two Lana albums have made it into Rolling Stone's 250 Greatest Albums of the 21st Century So Far 62: Born to Die 15: Norman Fucking Rockwell!

I've always seen it as an EP, since it was also released as one. But whenever someone says "Paradise is my favourite album" i don't try to correct them, because why would you be that bothered Albums, releases, bodies of work, its all the same to me for the most part.

I also think paradise is an album for the most part. More like a double album to born to die (wish it got 1 more song tbh)

Apparently Henry is definitely not the right person that will stay, in order to do that he needs to show up first and he hasn't even showed up yet, in fact we only got a quick glimpse of him passing by, even a quick dip it in and out one night stand stayed longer than him

The Truth is we ignore a lot of stuff about Lana that is negative because cognitive dissonance is easier than facing potential truths over an artist we love, Lana does bad things and makes poor decisions just like anyone else. We turn a blind eye to some things because we love her music and she still has a lot of good in her that outweighs the bad.

yes please - lana x weeknd collab 4 needs to happen! Not since 2017 guys did we have this duo. also liking the sound of his new record. The first single was abel by the books, but timeless and the anita collab was fire. a weeknd collab + 13 new songs off of Person and we are FED

The Wrong Person Will LIE!!!!

totally random (appropriate for the random lana discussion thread i guess ) but i was just thinking, i wonder if lana collects anything? like i'm sure she probably collects vinyls or some other kind of physical music, but with the way she's moved around a lot in her life (NY, california, alabama, etc) and described having a somewhat nomadic lifestyle at certain points, i wonder if she's somebody who owns a lot of stuff or is more of a minimalist. like idk does she like to collect vintage magazines? ornate wine bottles? decorative plates? antique glassware? star wars funko pops? is she a candle girly with a huge supply that could last a year? does she have any vintage film or tour posters on her walls? would she go nuts in the B&M soft furnishings aisle? so many questions

at least then it would make much sense to wait for Henry release first gain new listeners, then lead single

Idk if this has been said before, but I’ve always thought the name of this poem was not only about fires in LA, but also the camp fire that happened in November 2018. Maybe the name is just a coincidence, but it destroyed almost the entire town of Paradise in Northern California. It was the most deadly and destructive California fire at the time. The 2025 LA fires are now the most destructive, hopefully not more deadly. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camp_Fire_(2018)

Obvi pure speculation but a Lady Gaga and final collab with The Weeknd would be more than enough to hold me over until springtime

I say yes! I see lots of people arguing about this for some reason? And I just wanted your opinions. Lana’s Spotify description (before it was changed to blank) stated that Born To Die was her debut album (which I agree with) and Ocean Blvd’s album cover states that it is Lana’s 9th album. Therefore, since BTD is her debut, Paradise would have to be considered an album to make up the 9, no? 1. BTD 2. Paradise 3. UV 4. HM 5. LFL 6. NFR 7. COTCC 8. BB 9. Ocean Blvd (and 10 obviously TRPWS) Not only that but it’s listed as an album on Spotify and it does qualify as an album not an EP. I personally believe that Paradise is a separate album! Now I’ve tried to have this conversation with people before but they were always on the defensive for some reason and I was hoping to have a decent normal person conversation with people about this topic.

I see Paradise as an EP but a completely separate project from BTD with its own vibe, era, tour, etc. Honestly it is anything but an extension/deluxe edition of BTD.

I'm so done with all the EP/Album discussion, people are so nitpicky about it, especially with Ethel Cain's new release. It's come to the point where there's more discussion about "why is this an EP it's 90 minutes" than the actual music itself. I don't see why it matters, it's just a technical thing, a decision made by the artist or the label. It's like bickering over the packaging of a salad, I don't care about the box just lemme eat my fucking salad

Did you know that there’s a person that WILL stay !?

Oh god please, this is such a desperate take. If you are marrying someone who supports the Trump agenda and makes videos in which he repeats hateful MAGA speaking points your ideals are obviously not really opposing them. It's not about agreeing to disagree about pineapple on pizza at this point.

I wanted to procrastinate so I might an alternative timeline of Lanas Discography including music videos Lizzy Grant AKA Lana Del Ray (2010) (unreleased) Born to Die (January 30th, 2012) (I keep everything as it is) Born to Die (Deluxe Edition) (June 1st, 2012) Paradise (January 20, 2013) Tropico (Short Film) (December 6th, 2013) Ultraviolence (June 13, 2014) (I keep everything as it is) Ultraviolence Deluxe Edition (July 11, 2014) Honeymoon (September 18th, 2015) Lust For Life (July 21, 2017) L.A Who Am I To Love You? (The Lust For B - Side) ( March 16, 2018) Norman Fucking Rockwell! (August 30, 2019) Violets Bent Backwards Over The Grass (Summer 2020) Audio Book and Physical Book Chemtrails Over The Country Club (March 5, 2021) Dragonslayer (August 20 ,2021) Arcadia (October 22, 2021) Born To Die - Death Never Came (January 30, 2022) Lizzy Grant A. K. A Lana Del Rey (June 21, 2022) Did You Know That There's A Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd (March 24, 2023) The Right Person Will Stay ( May 23, 2025) (includes Roses Bloom For You either on the album or as a standalone in that era) Crazy For You (September 18, 2025) In conclusion her discography would look like that and we would have around 60 music videos

Guys tbf if Lana is on the Weeknd's album and if the rumours are true about Lady Gaga's album then it will help with the wait for TRPWS singles. Obviously the Weeknd and Lady Gaga are litch just rumours but I'm speaking hypothetically here!

If she has a collab with the weeknd maybe she’s waiting for it to come out on the 25th before she says anything else bout her album

i think it counts AKA as her first studio album (and born to die as first major label), making ocean blvd 9th but i think paradise is an EP that should’ve been an album and we are all free to consider an album and i consider it as such

Need a final version of this one so bad. I truly haven’t yearned for a Lana song like this in such a long time. Poetry in Motion is just so heavenly.

The wrong fans will be excluded from the fandom We all hope it gonna be like that but she loves to play with us

Lana Del Rey - Arcadia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mECX60FVJQ

When they serve Die with a Smile

When they serve Dollhouse from The Idol

It's wishful thinking but imagine if they collab again on his album! Like would it be another Stargirl Interlude? Or another Prisoner? Or another Lust for Life? I hope to see it happen, but I'm not getting my hopes up until there's something more that alludes me to them working together again

AAHHHH THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW!!!

Yeah!!! I think with this being the Weeknd's final album or wtv, it would make sense for Lana to be on it. Also, didn't the Weeknd's producer post like a file saying "lana x abel"

Well remember a year ago when BAZAAR asked her “last celebrity u texted” and she said the weeknd, I’m not saying they would only text for a collab, but it’s a possibility

If this album is a bit of a reset on her persona / totally new direction after the last 3 records then I hope she works with someone new on the album artwork. She’s reinvented herself numerous times through her career: from Lizzie to cinematic sadcore Lana to west coast grunge rock and roller to Honeymoon’s lush old Hollywood jazz singer to 60’s hippie beginning to self reflect on her place in the world to deeply introspective poet who can’t get off her piano. I hope she puts effort into the visuals again even if (actually, especially if) TRPWS is an acoustic guitar, stripped down album.

I agree I’ve always viewed them as completely different things I feel they have different vibes

I’ve always considered it an album but maybe I’m biased because it’s my top 3

Full agree.

Do you think each song will be about a different way a man has wronged her first up, Henry. What did he do? Why did she lose it on him? Clearly he is at fault.

ok i know i said before i have a sense that she's gonna add carmen to the setlist but i've changed my mind, for some reason i have this feeling she's adding dark paradise to the setlist

Cherry in general bothers me, like for me the production and lyrics are great but the fans ruined the song for me, like even way before TikTok fandom was a thing. It's like the most local song ever and I hate to say that word, like this song has all of them on chokehold. I haven't listened to the song in a long time. It used to be my favorite song from LFL but not anymore. I think all the fans begging for "CHeRrY mUsiC ViDEo" for like 2 years really was the last straw idk Not to mention when the OG Lust For Life 2016 tracklist was revealed in November, I remember how everyone on Instagram comments were crying that "why Cherry isn't there", that "thank god she scrapped it" because "there's no Cherry"

yall are fake as hell for not a single reply

so when i say the words nicole nodland what then

i have to say that i’m revisiting BB and if TRPWS is in the vein of If You Lie Down With Me we’re gonna get an incredible showstopper album.

Omg me and my boyfriend were looking for a YouTube video to watch while eating and this popped up on his feed and I was so confused
