I'm not surprised it's hard for this fanbase to recognize Honeymoon as her best album. 

Preach. 

I'm not surprised it's hard for this fanbase to recognize Honeymoon as her best album. 

Pitchfork: Björk is Full of Love Again
 
- Where Vulnicura painted black lakes, barren landscapes, and frozen rooms, Utopia seeks out a lush island where love is abundant and given without condition or hesitation
- Utopia is saturated with a honeymoon glow, even as it occasionally calls back to darker moments from across Björk’s career
- Some of the bird sounds on the album were recorded at her cabin in Iceland; "There are a couple of pairs of Arctic Loons that live just outside there. They’re really beautiful and huge. They obviously ended up on the album."
- Björk wrote 60% of the album on her own and Arca 40%
- “The Gate is the bridge from one album to the other, in a way, even though I didn’t write that song first. The wound featured in almost every video for Vulnicura changed into a gate that you can love from. Then the rest of the songs are in a new place."
 
- Arisen My Senses is the first song she wrote for the record; "The melody’s like a constellation in the sky. It’s almost like an optimist rebellion against the normal narrative melody. There’s not one melody. It’s like five melodies. I really loved that."
- "When I was writing Utopia and still singing the Vulnicura songs, I felt like I was having an affair from my own grief. Maybe that even exaggerated the contrast: You sing a really, really tragic song and you go home and you stand on your head and make a beat out of a ping-pong machine."
- "There are definitely songs on this album which are about platonic love and then there’s also real romantic love, all the way. And also maternal love. It’s a real mixture."
- Björk on collecting mythological stories and books about utopia; "It was really satisfying to discover that a lot of the stories were about women in the tribe stealing the flutes. They escaped with the children and went to a utopian place. Sometimes they got found out and something terrible happened, like violence. But in some stories, they managed to create a world where there was no violence or war. I was really excited by that. I also think people who end up being flute players are such interesting characters. They’re always eccentric."
 
- "There were definitely three stages [of writing]. There’s the utopian, futuristic, sexy part where we’re heading off to this island where everybody’s naked and there’s no violence, like a sci-fi novel. We were reading these black lesbian sci-fi books and really going off into that direction. The second part is more real and human. And then in the third section, songs like Body Memory and Loss are more of a continuation of previous albums."
- "Loss is very much a continuation of Pagan Poetry, a certain sort of girl goth music."
- "And Body Memory was a really strange song for me. I did not know what to do with that song. In the beginning it was 20 minutes long, and I ended up recording a 60-piece choir [the Hamrahlid Choir] on it."
- "Black Lake on Vulnicura was the darkest and saddest I’ve ever gone. Body Memory is a reply to that. It is my manifesto. My subconscious was like, “OK, I’ll let you write the saddest song ever for 10 minutes if you then write something to counter that.” And then this song came out all in one go. Each verse is about big things in life: destiny, love, sex. It’s a bit big-headed. It’s about, “OK, how am I going to live the second half of my life?” It’s a new territory, a door that’s opened."

Why? Harm of Will and Unison are beautiful

Those Vespertine vibes are everything 
 
I feel like these songs will probably make more sense in the context of the album, though.

I get really offended when people say Honeymoon is boring. It literally makes no sense, to me personally at least. It's SUCH an awesome record. Anyone who makes any other Lana fan feel lesser for liking a certain album more/less than another is stupid.

I haven't listened to this for soooo long! I love it!! I love Marry The Night too! ♥

 
Ew. ♥

coachella-woodstock in my mind 22 times 
 
 
coachella- woodstock in my mind (deluxe lollapalooza edition) 
 
features the acoustic version, 4 dubsept/electronic remixes each over 7 minutes long, and a spoken word extension poem interlude along with coachella-woodstock in my mind 23 more times with a total song count of
 
51 tracks clocking in at over 220 minutes or almost 4 hours of unadulterated blessings 

They better leak.
 

 
They are even close with Lust for Life time-wise. 
And just cause you don't organize them as LFL B-sides this doesn't meant they aren't.

Another point: Some Things Last a Long time feels like it belong to Lust for Life since it's a folk song and there are some folk influenced in LFL tracks (Tomorrow Never Came, Beautiful People Beautiful Problems) and the cover of the album is folksy too. And people thought it's an indicator of her direction for the album.

I never realised how insufferable some of you are.

I didn't get every word, but this is pretty much it:
 

can someone tell me what he said? its so hard to catch it thanks!

This photo's great (from Ben's instagram):
 
 
 

Lana posts some great photos on her own instagram account which I think could count as news every time she posts something. I noticed there was no thread for her instagram updates so I thought it would be cool to have one. If it's okay with the Mod's of course.  I'll update this thread whenever she updates her instagram page.

She posted some great pictures today. Looks like she's in the studio again.

you're forgetting ;
Something Real
Wild One
Young And In Love
Lust For Life (Blade Runner Version)
Architecture
Solo Versions of Groupie Love, and Beautiful people too

So basically you complain about this thread being useless still you came here posting this?    Fans are getting bored, Lana release something.

Lana is known for having a lot of B-sides due to leaks but this watered-down since Honeymoon. 
 
We have: - Cherry Blossom snippet from 2016
- that Some Things Last a Long Time cover
- Roses Bloom For You snippet
- Best American Record 
- Summer Bummer alternate version
- that little Yosemite live snippet
So they are bot many or I might be missing some. 
 
Do you think any unreleased songs from this era will leak? 
I want to see what you think

It seems that I'm not the one who doesn't know what a b-side is, actually.
 
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=b-side
 
''B-sides are usually songs that do not appear on the actually album that the A-side appears on, ocassionally it does. The b-side song was usually determined not to fit in with the overall sound of the album or it was considered not good enough to be on the album or just plain leftover tracks, so hence it's usage as a b-side. B-sides have often gotten a reputation of being filler and sub-par, even though a good majority of the time b-sides are better than a lot of the album tracks, and in some cases, better than the A-side. ''
