i really like lana's voice on the new version, idk what you guys are on

Why some people here are being so negative??? 
 
We got a beautiful heavenly song finally released and a beautiful selfie too, i’m so happy 

tiktok trends move extremely quickly so i wouldnt be surprised if it doesnt do as well as hoped because they waited quite a while to do it
 
obviously hope it does really well but i cant tell atp

What an incredible way to end a record. You know, pretty early on in the pre-release I predicted that the closing track would be one of the wordier ones, taking the final minutes to get out all that she wanted to say before it came to a close. Though I was somewhat wrong, I'd also like to think that I was somewhat right. 
Sometimes there really isn't more to be said, except for what already has been said.
I think motioning that sentiment by repeating the care-free, fun-loving lines of Venice Bitch that we already know and love with some new ad-libs is brilliant.
She said so much on this record - she got raw, she got personal - more than ever before, in my opinion. So, why not close the whole thing by shaking the heaviness off and transitioning into a remix of one of her most iconic songs?
I think by not saying anything more at all and rather choosing to reminisce on a lighter note, she silently reiterated some of the most important lyric lessons that she wanted to stress from the record - 
"I'm meaning to say, that there's nothing to do except know that this is how the light gets in"
"I give myself two seconds to breathe and go back to being a serene queen. I just needed two seconds to be me."
"When you’re home, you’re home (Venice, California)"
"It's not about having someone to love me anymore, this is the experience of being an American Whore"
"When you leave all you take is your memories, and I’m gonna take mine of you with me"
 
So by saying nothing new at all, she really said so much. Again, this whole record contained so much personal storytelling, and I just think this is the perfect sendoff. Sort of a, here was my story, now it's over, let's have fun.
 
I also love the Taco Truck section of the song and while I do wish it was its own song, I think it transitions so well into Venice Bitch. I think I may even prefer this rendition to the original.
Also, I'm still dying at the fact she teased a lyric from this song to me over a year ago. No, I'm never going to shut up about it x

Fishtail - a bop! I remember everyone instantly grooving to this one at the listening party once that beat drop - and what a killer drop it is! As much as I love Lana's natural voice, the auto-tune adds such a special flair. It actually suits her in songs like this quite well, like with Cinnamon Girl & TJF. Such a fun song.
Now onto Peppers, one I was going OFF to at the listening party.. x

I truly love Margaret. I know this track was one that people were less-excited for, but I didn't have any particular expectations about it. I also really love Jack & Lana's voices together, and the fact that they're so close makes the sentiment of this song even sweeter. A love song for a friend about his love. This is another one that makes me smile and want to sway around with friends or a love, just taking in that sweet moment of knowing when you know! Sometimes it really is as simple as that. When you know you know. & if you don't know, that's okay too, it'll eventually find you!
I also love the sing-song-spoken outro.. so fun. This would be a great song to hear live from the two of them at a cozy venue. The instrumental outro is also stunning. It reminds me of something I'd hear at the end of a happily-ever-after film, and I mean that in a good way. 
 
Now onto Fishtail.. x
 
 

i know a lot of people will trash the autotune on fishtail (as they did with tulsa jesus freak) but i think it's a pretty valid experimentation for lana. i'm all for trying new things: new producers, new techniques, new beats and i think this album as a whole suceeded a lot in that aspect

Whew. Fingertips is a lot to handle all at once. This is definitely her rawest, most personal, confessional song to date. It's incredible. It's a musical poem, or a page ripped out of a late-night journal entry spilling out all the thoughts overwhelming you at once. There's a lot to unpack, that I'm struggling to find what to say, except for that I'm so incredibly proud of her for being brave enough to share this so boldly with us. Her storytelling will always be unmatched, even when it's non-fiction. In fact, that makes it even better. She's not afraid to hold back anymore. Let it all out, babe. We're listening.
Now onto Paris, Texas - another instant favourite from the listening party x

fishtail gagged me so hard she is for sure the album's cinnamon girl/tulsa jesus freak, who would've thought? not me  it girl!! 

A&W is truly a masterpiece. One of the best works of art she's ever created. It just contains so much. Who knew a song could make me dance, cry, contemplate, reminisce, and every other emotion in between all at once?? Songs like this prove that Lana is truly a genius and unlike any other artist. An instant fave I can see ranking among my top favourite Lana songs until the end of time.
Now onto the first interlude, Judah Smith.. x

Y’all are doing Margret dirty it’s so wholesome 

I'm surprised Margaret isn't getting more attention!! That song has a grip on me

For the last time....
Did you know that there's a ROSEMEAD EXCLUSIVE BABY under ocean blvd 

CN deserved but if A&W is getting Brooklyn Baby'd without a mv...still happy for a mv though.

hope it's a mv with a storyline, it would be very cool to see

Saying goodbye to this thread and to my hopes of getting an album trailer. We had a good run 
 http://

Now wtf happened to "Rosemead exclusive baby" sound and why did Lana's team decided to remove these off each song  i prefer leaked unmastered versions

They sound just fine to me but you stay safe

No CDrip
Guess we will get it tomorrow when it comes out in NZ...

Ok so there’s 72628172684 listening parties across the US. Where t f is Candy Necklace HQ hunny wat is dis 

if you don't like titles like "fingertips", "peppers" and "taco truck", i wonder how you'd feel about titles like "blue jeans", "video games" and "cola" like this is such a classic lana way of naming her songs. if she's pretentious now, she always has been

All we can do is laugh at this point. It's the same shit every time 

What is life but a constant alternation between pre and post releases
