yeah same, i've listened the live rip from yesterday enough to notice some parts of it in this one at times

I used to listen the shit out of Paradise back in the day and I even got the physical EP on CD and two of the box sets (one signed which I bought when I went to Paradise Tour) and vinyl, I don't even listen to Ride or Gods & Monster anymore even though I loved them a lot. The only song that seems to make it to my playlists is Cola lol

so is it Cherry or nah? Bc I'm confused already lol this gon' mess my last.fm

Where did they register Cherry as I Fall to Pieces? Edit/Abel also has 18 tracks on his latest record and they managed to fit them on vinyls just fine so that's not an issue

Never in my wildest dreams would I have expected 18 freaking tracks from her on one single record (BTD Paradise edition aside) YASSSS.

too bad they screwed up the mixing just when we were going to get a professional recording of Cherry, however I'm gonna listen to it for now until we get a better one - fingers crossed for France Inter - because the instruments and bass are giving me life. not to mention those BTD-like shouts, I like them

Kinda disappointed that they screwed up Cherry but the instrumentals sounded amazing! Also I'm so excited and lowkey nervous to see her in Aug

omg she's killin' it alright

OMFG it sounds amazing

OMG

yaas sandstorm lol

omg yesss

fck I'm just listening to Hunter with good speakers right now and the microbeats or whatever they're called are giving me life

Is Ben trying to reenact Lana's shady replies which have gone to iconic proportions? If so he's doing it all wrong Seriously though, many people have commented stuff like that on his IG for some time now so he should've just stood above it and simply keep ignoring those comments. And yeah I did find that dog photo hilarious but certainly not the way he probably intended it... like we have a manager over here that decides to provoke the fans even more and confirm a release date by inserting a cap on his dog on his iPhone or whatever app

Wasn't there some discussion in the LFL pre-release topic that they would professionally livestream it, or at least some of the acts? I'd definitely enjoy a professional one considering that I'm also able to watch it since it's like 7.30PM here a random Instagram user streaming it will do ok too though

omg thank GOD Lana decided to do it again with Dan because I adore West Coast and the radio mix is... well, something else entirely and not in a good way.

I'm not that excited for the possible collab additions, other than Marina and Courtney Love if there even will be collabs with them. Marina because I like her and own her albums, Courtney because she seems kinda badass, idk I've never listened to her lol. More tracks though? Hell yeah. As long as we're not getting too many collabs and the tracklist is around 15 songs or so, I think I'm good. And of course the tracks gotta be coherent enough so that it's not just random tracks released on one record, I don't want it to sound like a compilation album tbh. I guess we'll just have to wait and see, but I'm gonna trust on her decision-making even though I have my own doubts and concerns on those collabs for now. (shemar moore is dreamy daddy af btw )

oh god Ben making him cut it out when the date was already out on the Paris Match issue is just plain ridiculous like wtf

Well I'm still hoping for a notification from Instagram and a "Hey kids - my latest record, Lust for Life, is now out there for the world. I hope you'll have as much fun listening to it as I had while making it with talents and artistry like Abel, Sean and Stevie - collaborations I truly feel blessed for. My tour will begin on the 21st of July and Stevie, happy birthday beautiful. I'll be performing tomorrow at Radio 1's Big Weekend and catching up on France Inter later on the 31st. See you at shows Beautiful People. x Lana" but by now the chances of that happening are lower than Lana during the Cherry choreography

Maybe she's doing it all now if tomorrow was the official release date but it got delayed for some reason and she can't back out anymore. Or maybe at this time tomorrow we'll be listening to the actual record which isn't gonna happen tho

lol those 3 new songs Lana's gonna do on the French radio are gonna be Love and LFL and when everyone's expecting Cherry to be the 3rd one she'll probably just be like "ok let's do Coachella guys"

me rn and me for the next 2 months tho

I thought about it too lol I'm just hoping that her next Instagram post will be about the date and not a "copy and paste" sorta situation of the tweet

Sure the July date has been more realistic for a while now but it still doesn't change the fact that they've handled this release date mess very badly. Ben's answer was discordant with Paris Match already mentioning the July 21st date - or he/they didn't know the magazine was out(?). And what about them cutting it from Ted's interview when it was already out on the mentioned Paris Match issue? Jesus... Also if Lana was aware of the rumours of the record coming out tomorrow, she should've announced the date earlier and better. Instead of a tweet which seems sort of negligent because of its short length (and not even posting it anywhere else), she surely could've just written one of those letters of hers and uploaded a picture of it, telling she's aware of the speculation and drama and letting us know the date properly. And yeah I'm acknowledging that it's not her duty or anything, I just think she could've done it... well, a lot better If there's 2 months of waiting ahead of us they better release a couple more songs (like Cherry for example), yet not too many because it's not that fun listening to an album which you've pretty much already heard. One pop singer in my country released a 10-track album last year and 6 of those were released as singles, and with 2 more being performed live for a long time there were basically only 2 new tracks on the record. Needless to say that I got over the album very quickly. Knowing Lana's team though there's no threat of that happening, but if they're gonna release a couple more songs Cherry should be one of them. I'm hoping that Cherry won't turn out to be another Body Electric though, since BE was a lot better live and the studio version is mostly boring compared to it. In short: they better improve or these next 2 months are going to be long and boring

How reliable is Metacritic? Yeah it clearly says that release dates often change but still
