Ultra Violet

for taylor

Also it’s so weird having a one-word album name after so many years. Inb4 she changes it to “Your Lasso Around My Heart Pulled Tight - But I’m No Man's Woman” 

Manifesting all original songs that haven’t been heard before, no covers, and no features

Welcome to the Lasso Pre-Release Thread
Annual Discussion & Meltdown!
To be released September 2024
 
January 31st: Lana Del Rey has announced the title of her newest record "Lasso" during the NMPA x Billboard Songwriter Awards + Showcase. The album will be a country record with production by Jack Antonoff set for release in September 2024.
 

 
What we know so far:
- In a journal entry dated March 28th, 2023 posted on Instagram, Jack Antonoff wrote that "Lana refuses to leave [the studio]"
-  Lana Del Rey has revealed to a fan while at a Waffle House in Florence, Alabama that she is "working on a new recording" in July 2023. Later that month, she visited Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Sheffield, Alabama where she recorded 3-4 songs.
- In November 2023, Lana Del Rey hung out with Luke Laird, a country music producer/songwriter, in Nashville. They later visited again in January.
- In January 2024, Lana Del Rey stated she was working on new songs with Jack Antonoff in an Instagram story post.
 
Potential tracks (unconfirmed):

I said don't @ me and you were still that triggered ahhhhh Let ppl speak their opinions without broadcasting that youre over it. I was praising FJM more than attacking Jack anyway soooo. He is literally so Laurel Canyon

Over 30,000 people.
Apparently 1 child every 10 minutes is killed. And people still wanna defend that (or ignore that)

Genocide Joe’s about 20 mins away from me. I was literally in that area YESTERDAY. I wanna give that old man a piece of my mind!

exactly and i said maam! 

Thank you for your comments. My friend actually messaged me today and we talked a little so I think we'll be fine :') 
Now, while the Court hasn't ruled the ceasefire, they believe Israel should take measures to not inflict any pain to civilians. 
Although that happened, I saw this today on Instagram and it made me so sad. This is so unfair 
The Zionist Argentinian Organization just completely erased Cisjordania and Palestine from its map.
 

The ICJ has delivered its interim decisions:
Israel must take all measures to prevent any acts that could be considered genocidal - killing members of a group, causing bodily harm, inflicting conditions designed to bring about the destruction of a group, preventing births Israel must ensure its military does not commit any genocidal acts Israel must prevent and punish any public comments that could be considered incitement to commit genocide in Gaza Israel must take measures to ensure humanitarian access Israel must prevent any destruction of evidence that could be used in a genocide case Israel must submit a report to the court within one month of this order being given https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/world-68097640
 
While disappointing that the ICJ has not ruled for an immediate ceasefire; the positive news is that they do believe Isreal has a case to answer and they have in effect, taken the case on!

Israel has allowed Qatar to give hundreds of millions of dollars in aid through Hamas over the years... this is what happens when they are the sole "entity" of power in the territory

oh no nfr gaslighters occupied ur brain and now u are the one of them i’m sorry honey😢

Flipside, it’s always flipside 

I Can Fly

I haven't smelled them but I always read reviews. They all seem quite positive, in fact its hard to find a negative review that is more descriptive than just "ugly" or "gross" lol. Mainly negative reviews complain about the price, the ugly head and the small bottles. But two reviews on fragrantica for Earthy Abundance say it gives them a headache and it's too much.
Can't find anything on their longevity, but I doubt they last long at all as all the notes are thrown in together with no separation.

does anyone else sing Lana's songs and immediately just feel all relaxed after? so good 

what's a girl to do is such a weird song for me lmfaoooo it sounds so much like her but also it sounds like shes covering an old song. she invented american classics and standards i fear 

She confirmed that the album is coming next year during the event!  Also she pulled out a perfume sample that she said is already being worked on for said album lol, so it sounds like it is definitely happening 🤞

unrelated to her music but I love her perfumes so much!!! Moonlight is the very best one 

Not actually of Lana, but I don't wanna make a new thread or anything.
I tried album covers inspired by psychedelic flowers. These were the only albums that worked well:
 
Born to Die:

Paradise:

Ultraviolence:

I used img2go.com but yeah I don't think AI is very good at picking up what I mean by psychedelic and dripping Might just have to draw them myself sometime.
