A&W has the highest replay value of any Lana song from the past couple of years for me – it's a really great song and I even love the piano which is haunting and slightly ominous here.

In A&W we got
Laptop demo eerie vibes 
Lizzy guitars
Upbeat 2011 unreleased vocals
Paradise aura
UV rawness 
NFR and Chemtrails samples 
And the intimacy tinges of the new album
 
She really compiled everything Lana and evolved it into greatness 

The outro will get all the attention but the first 4 minutes….
 
 genuinely some of her most stunning writing/vocals and that rushed piano and guitar gives it such a sense of unease and urgency that has never been really present in her music yet
 
She is just a gift

inb4 the "I wish she would go back to piano ballads" comments  

They way BOZ said that it's very likely that we don't have any clue about the album sound landscape now, so true. 

I just want to say that after listening to the new single, I am 100% convinced that this will be her best album. I was already feeling that way after hearing the first single, seeing the imagery, and reading the titles & insider info, but now I have absolutely no doubt. This is it. We've known that Lana has always been a genius when it comes to her lyrics and melodies, but I feel her vision is stronger than ever. I've said it before, but I just know this record will contain some of her rawest, most personal writing mixed with brilliant creative sonic patterns we've never seen from her before. The past two singles prove it already. I am sort of at a loss for more words at the moment as I'm so overwhelmed, so all I can say is that I'm so proud of her and I can't wait to hear the rest of the record. The two singles have floored me enough already, I'm going to be in absolute shambles come release day x

She's alive and breathing don't pit two successful women against each other 

my...my piano loving era is over 
i want- no no I NEED the whole album to sound like this 

Lana Del Rey's second single, A&W, from her upcoming album Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd is out now on all online music retailers and streaming platforms.

Wasn't expecting THIS! Very cool, now I'm excited for the album.

Wasn't expecting THIS! Very cool, now I'm excited for the album.

Anyone who thinks this song needed to be split into two songs is WRONG. They literally flow so seamlessly

i literally cannot comprehend what the rest of the album is going to sound like at this point

Wasn't expecting THIS! Very cool, now I'm excited for the album.

The way he quite literally clarified that it doesn't mean the vday release is canceled, and yall going crazy anyway  just as he predicted. Can't make this shit up 

again, please stop @ing kintsugi if he wishes to reply, he will

Honestly bad move for her career to change her name, but if she really wanted to change it she should've gone with Marina Diamandis, not just MARINA. like girl-

I tbh will never understand why her management let her change her stage name to just MARINA… like girl… it’s not a super unique name 😭 there are gonna be other artists named marina..
the amount of times random musicians songs have appeared on her artist pages is insane 
 
also? sounds about as bland as her music became so maybe it fits idk, but at least matd or Marina Diamandis have a little spice to em 

"when she was young" this picture is from LAST YEAR 

Tbf lanaboards is not that different from Lana subreddit  y'all are hypocrites

i know A&W is probably the next single, but this far into the album cycle i would rather have the next single (which will probably be the last pre-release single) be something more unassuming like Sweet. i would’ve gladly taken A&W a couple weeks ago, but the closer we get to the album the more patient i am becoming; i still want a second single but at this point i would like it to be something pretty neutral that won’t spoil the most exciting parts of the album
