These, which were briefly available for purchase: https://store.univer...ion/6L5N0000000 (Collector's Edition) https://store.univer...ion/6L5O0000000 (Analogue Edition) https://store.univer...ion/6L5Q0000000 (Double Disc Edition) https://store.univer...ion/6L5R0000000 (Oranges Edition) But they've been taken down now, I guess. There was no information with them, just a textless square cropped picture of the cover and the price.

I wrote this in the VBOTTG Spoken Word thread, but I wonder if those bundles that are now taken down were COTCC and VBBOTG paired together and the reason they're not available is because COTCC hasn't been formally announced yet. It could be a glitch and that's why they were showing up but no information was there with it - because COTCC isn't available on the store yet. Given both albums' coinciding releases, it would make sense to bundle them.

Oh okay, that makes sense, thank you! I'm wondering if this is legit: https://www.reddit.com/r/lanadelrey/comments/hgrh4y/thought_id_share_this/fw96wh6/?context=3 They shared the supposed tracklist and back cover a week and a half ago and said that we could expect an announcement from Lana within the next week or so at the time. I guess that, along with Violet's announcement and the website's coding, indicates she'll formally announce the record in a few days!

I love everything you wrote. Musically speaking I would love something that has a classic feel to it - maybe a mix of Honeymoon and ‘Me & Mr. Jones’ by Amy Winehouse with some more dreamy guitars like the instrumentation of the Patent Leather Do-Over Instagram vid. I would love a pearlescent white or amber vinyl as well! I wouldn’t even mind a nice lavender/lilac shade as well. So exciting!

I have a feeling that if she ever has a daughter, she'll name her Violet after her great grandmother. Even in VBBOTG, the titular line is followed by "seven years old with dandelions grasped tightly in her hands".

Even if that tracklist with the rollercoaster back cover isn't real, it seems "so legit" anyways! Having Lilac Wine at the end (assuming it's a cover) would harken back to UV and HM, as those records also closed with a Nina Simone cover. Thematically, I could see Lana relating to Lilac Wine on both a personal level and a cultural level that links to the potential "rich-oblivious-to-the-havoc-of-the-world" theme that some of us have inferred the record will deal with based on the title.

I believe it was her great grandmother! It says she was the mother of Robert England Grant, whose son is Robert England JR, aka Lana's dad! https://www.geni.com/people/Violet-Grant/6000000033603740823 Upon reading Robert England Grant's obituary (https://www.geni.com/people/Robert-Grant/6000000033603540322) "Bob is survived by his wife, Cynthia, his sons Robert and his wife, Pat; David; and Jim; all of Lake Placid. His great joys also included his grandchildren: Elizabeth, Caroline, Charlie, and David and his wife Marya" It wouldn't be too far fetched to assume this is the Violet Lana is referring to, as she said in the video she posted in December announcing VBBOTG as a spoken word album that she was connecting to her own family lineage! -
