I think American Whore is about the way in which she's been perceived for doing things untraditionally and being branded a whore by the public. The pastor interlude will talk about how it's only God's place to judge, and then Lana will later on the album find herself at peace with the way that she lives her life and take comfort in knowing that God will accept her for exactly how she is. I wonder if the interlude is just the pastor talking the whole time. I would love if Lana intercuts her own thoughts and has a bit of a dialogue with what he's saying.

The fact that it's a pastor's screaming brain-frying moment right before American Whore is intriguing Edit: wait it's right after

I love the idea of a screaming brain-frying moment, but not from Judah Smith

We literally haven't heard it yet so how would we know if we need it or not If it's on an album which is expected to be very cohesive and one of her best, I'm sure it will have its place, even if it's not a standout.

Yikes this thread went from being so iconic to truly embarrassing so quickly

It's true but in some ways the best track coming first is a blessing cus we need the time to properly absorb it on it's own, especially if it's something so long and intricate. Like I spent that entire year getting a whole album's worth of amazement from Venice Bitch alone, so I'm glad we got it so early.

I really don't get why she's releasing the same day as Lana, let Lana have her moment to shine...

Why on earth would Miley choose the same day

I mean I'm happy we have the songs, but the fact that Eclipse got them by pretending to be Lana is highly questionable

This thread has been so interesting! Thank you @BlackoutZone for all the insight!

Or Friday the 13th

I've hardly been on here for the last two weeks but it appears we have no new information

Don't forget me like the tunnel under Ocean Blvd

Yikes March 10th seems so far away

1 for Christmas, 1 for New Years

Both pleaseee Is Crazy For You (Demo 1) the version we have snippets of or is this a trick question and it's low quality and California is the better answer

But the implication that it would be future merch made it really seem music related. Oh well, I adore the sound of Del Norte County and have even used it in some writing. I never would have heard of it otherwise, so it's a win for me.

Omg it looks like the mystery of DNC may last forever. Someone on atrl asked "Did we ever find out if the DNC on her jacket actually means something? Did @BlackoutZone address this and is just saving for her to reveal?" and BOZ just said "I don't recall this at all"

Even though the wait seems long, I am so grateful that we received this beautiful song for the holiday season. We were all spiralling anyways waiting for info, so at least we now know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd

did you know that there's a tunnel under ocean blvd ??????????

No the covers album is surprise releasing on Christmas Day

Maybe Lana will decide March 10th is too far away and surprise release in January instead

I agree but also maybe the song is wild enough that it deserves it's own moment in the sun

You guys have incredible self-control if you could stop yourselves from listening to any singles I can't even pretend that I'm capable of that.
