Amazing, thank you!

Well at least they got number 8 right, that album will forever be a stain on Lana's otherwise pretty much immaculate discography. And as nice as it is to finally see some love for COCC, it's certainly not her best album. Aside from that – the less said about this ranking, the better.

Has anyone received this CD already and could do a little unboxing? I wanna know which photos made it into the booklet/inlay and which ones didn't lol.

Merchbar is notorious for incorrect mock-ups (as well as being more expensive than other websites), so don't get your hopes up. Chances are somebody just "accidentally" used the Ocean Blvd single cover instead of the album one, but if you were to order it you'd just get the standard vinyl.

LOVE the new pink theme, thank you @Elle! I do think that eventually I might return to the Chemtrails one, but for now I'm obsessed with Ocean Blvd.

The Amazon one definitely not.

I think it looks a bit darker in my picture than it actually is. It's definitely more purple than baby pink though, even though it was advertised as the latter. However, I still think it looks nice.

AAAAAAAAAAAAA

Based on what I've found on Discogs and online, it seems like all the colour variants are the exact same ones in both Europe and the US, i. e. pressed in Czech Republic. That means that there are not going to be any colour differences between regions.

Do we have pics of that CD version yet?

Umm...

FNAC AND AMAZON HAVE NOW ALSO SHIPPED MY BABY PINK (?) AND DARK PINK VINYLS!! So all three of my variants are now on their way!

Same but still no shipping confirmation. The fact that it still says it's gonna be delivered until tomorrow... bold claim.

UPDATE: In a stunning, unexpected turn of events, it's actually iMusic that came through and shipped my green vinyl today?? Which is great but it still won't arrive until sometime next week. Meanwhile Amazon and FNAC remain flopping. I still want my first listen to be on vinyl, but I'm afraid that means I'm gonna have to wait a bit longer until I get to hear the album. Why am I doing this? Why am I edging myself like that?

So basically the "baby pink" turned out to be UV purple, and the "pastel green" turned out to be NFR neon green. Interesting that the dark pink Target/HMV/FNAC version seems to be the only one that actually looks like the mock-up. I mean they still look cute, but it kinda bugs me when the exact same colour variants they already used for previous albums are just reused again when they have sooo many other options. Y'all have no idea how much it pissed me off when we got yet another red variant for COCC and BB. But obviously I still bought them because I'm dumb.

Why is this release so messy yet again? So first of all, my baby pink vinyl from Amazon is gonna arrive one week after the release date (at the earliest). Sucks, but I honestly didn't expect anything else from Amazon. Then, my FNAC preorder of the dark pink vinyl... When I checked my order yesterday it was already at the "préparation" stage – so WHY did it go back to "en attente de livraison fournisseur" today?? I'm honestly so confused because usually they're the ONE reliable store I order from. And finally, the green vinyl from iMusic. I never expected that to arrive on time, but after reading the last few replies I'm now anxious whether I'll actually get it at all. Why are you doing this to me, Lanita? I just want one of the three overpriced plastic frisbees I preordered to arrive on release day so my first listen can be on vinyl.

Madonna and Max Martin? She really said Queen of POP!

We don't want this boring flop ass song, we want Serial Killer and Kinda Outta Luck xx

Okay so I came up with something:

POE POE POE POE POE POE! UK, Israel, Finland, Serbia, France, and Czech Republic are great too. Not feeling the Loreen song/performance, I feel like people only rate her that highly because of Euphoria but IDK.

Ella? Socks? Mod drama? What the hell happened since I last checked this thread one or two days ago??

Loving this topic @evalionisameme! I've always thought that Kim Petras sounds a lot like Gwen on Broken: I also agree with the Charli XCX examples posted earlier, even though I hear her even more in Charli's balladesque songs (e.g. Emotional, White Mercedes). And yeah, in a different timeline Selena's Same Old Love was definitely a Gwen Stefani song too just like The Heart Wants What It Wants.

Yes To Heaven really has become the one most overrated unreleased track, huh? It's worse than Life Is Beautiful at this point, at least with that one before it leaked there was a slim chance it might turn out to be an interesting song (even though ultimately... it didn't).
