    Hopefully the album title gets changed to Arcadia as well. I fucking hate Blue Banisters as title.

    I don't really care about the title arcadia, especially bc we haven't heard the song yet, but I never liked Blue Banisters as an album title either and would like if were something else (plus I don't want BB to be the opening track and I don't want her to break the 1-2 tradition). For a song title it's fine, but not for the whole album.

    I really appreciate the story the story and more concise tracklist. My only complaint (I literally created a playlist replicating this so I could listen to it like an album) is that the 2nd half starts to really drag for me as it’s 5-6 minute slow song after 5-6 minute slow song. I love listening to rearranged tracklists though so thank you for posting!

    If you like rearranged tracklists I made a LFL playlist that has the more upbeat songs toward the middle/end

    Spoiler

    01. 13 Beaches

    02. Lust for Life (Demo 1)

    03. Young and in Love (Demo)

    04. Best American Record (Demo)

    05. California

    06. Cherry

    07. White Mustang

    08. Summer Bummer (feat. A$AP Rocky & Playboi Carti)

    09. Groupie Love (feat. A$AP Rocky)

    10. In My Feelings

    11. Prisoner (w. The Weeknd)

    12. Serene Queen

    13. Heroin

    14. Yosemite

    15. Get Free

    And so I'm not too off topic for the thread lol, my unpopular opinion is that LFL is better than Norman & Chemtrails

    and people will argue that lana shouldn't have complete control over her work which i think is really unfair? of course, her past work is great, but she should still have control over her work, and i'm not saying the producers shouldn't have any input, but she should have the final say, she's not stupid, she's created very beautiful works of art by herself, songs like disco, pawn shop blues, oh say can you see, elvis, super movie, etc. were all written & produced (at some points) by her and they're wonderful, she's a great artist and she's very creative, and at the end of the day, she's gonna do what she wants to do, and obviously right now she wants a more mellow, confessional sound for her work

    Idk about other people but I don't think she shouldn't have control over her work bc she's an artist and it's important for your art to be what you want it to be, I just want her to work with people who push her to her full potential rather than just going with whatever she puts out, which is what it seems has been going on lately. I'm really looking forward to the album though bc the singles are very intriguing. 


  5. I'm hoping for more relatable/creative lyrics on this album. Chemtrails had better songwriting than Norman, but I can't personally relate to most of it bc obviously I'm not famous. She's sung about fame plenty of times in the past, but it could usually be interpreted multiple ways, and I really miss digging through all the layers of meaning in her music and figuring out what it means to me. There's probably more to her newer lyrics that I'm not picking up on, but they just seem so straightforward to me and I'm ready for something more complex.

    Lana obviously loved Bowie along with all the other greats like Lou Reed, Stevie, etc... but can we get something inspired by Bowie on this album? Like not just lyrically but like in terms of sound...? Please? If you're gonna do a stripped back album PLEASE do something similar to Hunky Dory or something!!!!!! it'd be lovely if she did something like the guitars on Man Who Sold The World particularly The Width of A Circle (speaking of which that's getting a whole ass release so I need to add that to my "to buy" list to go along with my Metrobolist vinyl) 

     

    idk i just want something entirely different again. cocc felt like the little sister of NFR, almost too little... too little in the sense that it wasn't 1000% finished cooking entirely. like it could've used something extra on over half of the songs. it's a great album i like it, and i'm glad she's ready to put more music out there but i need to hear something that's more.... rock inspired or prog inspired, come on Jack you have the capabilities to use mellotron USE IT FOR FUCK SAKE

     

     

    sorry guys i just needed to talk out my thoughts

    Ugh I'd love a Hunky Dory inspired sound from Lana, it's my favorite Bowie album <3

     

    Also I'm honestly really sad about the musical direction Lana has been heading. Not to be like "I hate Jack" but he just doesn't do Lana justice. Usually the instrumentation matches her vocals and her voice sounds like part of the instrumental, but lately (aka Norman & Chemtrails) it feels like her vocals and the instruments are totally separate. Idk if I'm making sense bc I'm drunk, but my point is that her music isn't an escape anymore. The magic, the ethereal atmosphere, is gone. It's just a voice over some toned down instruments. I can handle two dull albums, but even though I don't want to, I might have to unstan if RCS follows the same musical direction as Norman & Chemtrails ://
