The way this has been out for one day and is already one of the best songs I've ever heard

It's funny that everyone talks about how fun and boppy the second part is but I also find it very dark and unsettling. Like that party with Jimmy is not good vibes, even though the beat makes us think otherwise. It's like some trippy drugged up loop that we're stuck in where she just repeats the same toxic things about Jimmy over and over, and I think by repeating the lyrics from a song from the 1950s she's also making a statement that people have been living similar experiences to her for a very long time. It's obviously a vibe but there's a lot of darkness beneath the surface in that part too.

Why though? Tons of great art takes time to understand. No lyric in this song is mumbled to the point of indecipherable, and maybe she doesn't want us to hear it all at once. There's a lot to unpack in this song, it's perhaps her boldest artistic statement yet. Also it seems like there are very few people who can't be bothered, almost everything I've read about the song is extreme praise so it seems like the vocals aren't much an issue.

OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!! I am fucking speechless, this is obviously one of her best songs of all time, an absolute artistic triumph. It's so wild that the insiders really spoiled nothing because this is such an incredible ride that nothing could really take away from it. A David Lynch horror film as a folk/pop masterpiece. Lana really isn't just making music at this point, she's an artist like no other ever imo. The first half is so completely insane and that final verse before the change is the most revealing and brutal she's ever written, and then the production literally sounds like some kind of frightening rewind to the past, where we end up in this unsettling trap loop that somehow further explains the questions that she's asking in the first half. She's been wondering how she ended up in this place in life, whether she likes or if it's just who she is, and then this jump back to her Lizzy Grant / teenage self shows that she's been like this for a very long time. Dark, unique, thought-provoking, A MASTERPIECE!!!!!!!
