Coincidence? I THINK NOT!

The other cultural reference for the title
 
 

I wonder if they recorded it during the same session they recorded Stargirl

I guess if there is a 'writer unknown' in addition to Abel, then there's a possibility they use a sample of the Iggy song?

Could be a cover/reference to Iggy Pop and David Bowie?

THIS DRAG

If it's a single we could get a video

 
(of Lana and Abel fucking)

There aren't any producers listed either so I think the credits are incomplete. But I hope everyone melts down about it anyway.

The way Bill plays guitar :awkney:  

Ok

Abel will be on the alboom 100% now

This is my latest video. I posted in another spot but since this is about Love I'll put it here too. Enjoy.
 

yeeeessss LDR x The Weeknd confirmed !
Yall can go cry in your corners now, another smash is coming !

Why are people getting messy over people (rightfully) speculating That the Weeknd is gonna be on the album?
 
Guess what? There are collabs.
 
Guess what? They're probably going to make the album.
 
Guess what? She's collab'd with him before and they're friends.
 
Guess what? X'O is The Weeknds things and has been for the longest period of time, including the fact it's all over his recently-released H&M collection.
 
Guess what? She tweeted in as a reference to him and he retweeted it. That is a fact.
 
Why on earth are you guys getting so catty over it? Chill the fuck out. There's nothing wrong with healthy speculation, and that's the best speculation we've seen so far about the collabs.

In Body Electric when she sings "my clothes still smell like you" - I thought she said "my coasters smell like you" and I was thinking "that makes 0% sense".
 

Not really misheard, but for a long time my mind tricked me into thinking that in Brite Lights the "Let's go back to Aberdeen / Where I was once a beauty queen" line was in fact "Let's go back to Aberdeen / Where your mom was a beauty queen"; which doesn't really make sense in the context of the song, but it has a mysterious and ambiguous quality to it lol

I thought the lyrics to Yayo were "I like the snake on your tattoo, I like the Ivy and the pink blue" 

I put Carmen to play today and my sister said she heard "Call me Harley Quinn" instead of "Coney Island Queen".

The problem with a surprise release, in Lana's case, is that it won't go directly to her fans: it will go to the super stans who follow her every move on social media and are waiting every second for the album release. And those are not enough to bring the album up to the charts. Things like singles, interviews, live performances, videos before the album release help to build up hype so that those who do not know what Lana is doing can get time to be informed that she is coming out with a new album and to be excited about it. 
beyonce's release (going with her self-titled one, since that was the start of it all) worked for a number of reasons, but the main ones were that she is a global superstar who had been in the public consciousness for roughly 15 years before she dropped the album and managed to both record an entire album with an accompanying music video for each track without a single person leaking or discussing it beforehand. The novelty of the album release was also a major talking point, because no artist at her position had ever done something like that before, which meant free promotion from every major news outlet.
Lana does not have those connections. Music outlets would most likely cover the release, but those articles would be competing with all the other artists who released albums that day/week, artists who most likely went with the traditional release strategy and had prepped fans to expect an album by the day of release. With that competition, it's quite likely Lana's articles would be mostly or entirely overshadowed by those other articles and all the more casual fans who could have listened to the new album will miss the opportunity to do so (at least in the first few weeks). 
Those first week sales are still a pretty big deal, even if it kind of sucks. Because again, for a lot of casual fans (and not even fans of Lana, necessarily, but music fans in general) the number one place to find new music is looking at the what's trending/top ten lists. If Lana's new album isn't in that list---there goes that opportunity. Yes, Lana and her label could then try to boost the album through post-release promotion, but they would then be competing with other, major artists releasing hyped albums, which is always dangerous. And Lana's label is probably going to be less likely to, say, promote more (which extends beyond interviews and goes into things like budgets for music videos) if they don't think that they are getting that investment back. 
If Lana's music video is anything to go by and she seems interested in trying to make a bit of a public comeback, a surprise release would really hinder, if not totally sabotage, those plans. 

Lana Del Rey is not Beyonce.
 
That would not go well.

My sister has similar tunic/dress, it's pretty nice material.. She hates it, tho.. I was literally forcing her to wear it from time to time
