ALSO:

not old, but they still deserve to be included 

i know it probably won't be similar at all but i can't hear "God Bless America" without reading it the way she says it in mermaid motel

she literally needs to hire you these are all so amazing!!!! you're really good at capturing and presenting a certain vibe/story w your edits, please never stop omg 

Minimalist Ultraviolence poster! Am aware the photo is from the Neil Krug for Honeymoon shoot but fuck it 
 

Tried my hand at a Lust for Life album poster... imagine if these randomly popped up around the world and we hadn't seen the red witchy photo before... 
 
(sorry for what i did to her head lol i'm shit)
 

"Cause we're the masters of our own fate
We're the captains of our own souls"
 
 
I'm fucking wheezing I literally posted that Invictus was a really Lana-esque poem last April and now it's been channeled in her new era :eartha:

one word Lana has been dropping a lot recently is "Perspective", whether in her Honeymoon IG account or in her acceptance speech at the Billboard Women in Music event. I thought "Perspective" would be a brilliant album title in this stage of Lana's career, and so I've been making really shitty fake track-lists and unofficial covers for this album.

there's one picture in particular from the marfa journal shoot that really caught my eye. it's really something, and i thought it would be perfect for an album cover. it fits in well with all the interscope LDR albums with the inclusion of a vehicle (lel) and also follows on very nicely with the HM cover with the shades and it has a similar but different idea, symbolising the continuation of the idea of celebrity, anonymity and fame, but now Lana is in the driving seat, and it's her who is very much in control. it would fit the mood of this album: darker, more insistent and less passive, shinier.

ok enough of me talking crap, here is the cover:



i also made a tracklist, sorry if it is really bad. the first track would be a short monologue about her finding her perspective. track 8 would be a reading of William Ernest Henley's poem Invictus, I think it's a really Lana-esque poem (shown below) and really sums up her struggles to be taken seriously in the industry. The final track would be a reading of the Lord's Prayer.
Perspective (Intro) Tides Rising Beautiful People Devotion In Absentia Promised Land Invictus (Interlude) Angel’s Flight Walk of Fame I Found You Firehouse Sidewalk Dreams Ne Me Quitte Pas Amen (Postlude)
i'm going to post more of my ideas for this album if you guys don't send me hate mail
 
 
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,

I thank whatever gods may be

For my unconquerable soul.


In the fell clutch of circumstance

I have not winced nor cried aloud.

Under the bludgeonings of chance

My head is bloody, but unbowed.


Beyond this place of wrath and tears

Looms but the Horror of the shade,

And yet the menace of the years

Finds and shall find me unafraid.


It matters not how strait the gate,

How charged with punishments the scroll,

I am the master of my fate,

I am the captain of my soul.

thought: her making references to the btd-era americana and current-day american culture, itll be like, an internal battle for her love for america despite the shitty current state of it

The fact that Lana has a song called God Bless America
 
Lana Del Rey 2020 confirmed 

Y'all I messaged Universal Music Finland about the May 26th on their site, hopefully they'll answer me back and if they do I'll translate it for you guys. If they answer...   It's probs gonna take at least until tomorrow morning since it's 8PM here and I doubt anyone's there to check their messages. Hope for the best!

Another interview without a release date

 

I do have a feeling at the end of the Elle mag it's gonna say something like "Del Rey's fifth album, 'Lust for Life' will be released May 26th." That would be perfect since the magazine comes out on the 16th. That's exactly 10 days. Also to back this up, Elle did say "to mark the release of her stunning new album" on their instagram. Also, I have a feeling she's not gonna reveal the full tracklist. Which I'm okay with because that leaves more of a surprise, but Itd be amazing if she reveals it as well because it builds up anticipation. I'm just all over the place 

It is so nice to have new Lana photos. The last few days on this forum were unsettling.

i know it probably won't be similar at all but i can't hear "God Bless America" without reading it the way she says it in mermaid motel

If only this would be noticable in her music ... Lust For Life and Love are such faux-teenybopper tracks, especially compared to Honeymoon.

thats actually nice lol 

i need her to at least fix the "music store" link on her website if she can't give us a pre order yet im getting so anxious it's been this long and she hasn't mentioned anything about the album, i need her to do something soon lol

Lust for Life is gonna be like every optimistic BTD outtake
Why can't she redo Driving In Cars With Boys

I just need this album to come out now or I might have an aneurysm.
