I find that Sirens, Young Like Me, and From The End are probably the worst things Lana has ever done and I still can't actually listen to them all the way through. I think that Love is good for what it is, but I was hoping for a more upbeat sound in the vein of Meet Me In The Pale Moonlight, or even Boarding School.

I was hoping for something more upbeat...but this is okay.

I want LDR5 to be in the style of Meet Me In The Pale Moonlight tbh

I wish Lana would actually do concerts using songs from her new albums. It would disappoint me if LDR5 came around and she's still doing sets with only 2/3 new songs from it.

As a fan of rap music, I'm not impressed by this at all. Eminem's act of dissing pop stars stopped being edgy, shocking, or meaningful years ago. Eminem's act on a whole stopped being edgy. He just needs to retire.

Why? it wouldn't even sound good and Nicki sucks.

I really hope A$AP Rocky eventually revisits and completes Ridin' (My Bitch). It's such a good song that it deserves to be finished and put on one of his albums.

I like about a majority of the songs on Honeymoon individually, but listened to as a cohesive project...the entire album feels monotonous (except for High By The Beach, which just feels out of place)

Where do you even live? That wouldn't even be a problem here.

I think Lana will probably never make an album better than Ultraviolence or AKA

Pumped Up Kicks wasn't the best example, since they eventually did pull that song from rotation after some school shooting happened.

Put a rapper on a Florida Kilos remix (say A$AP Rocky), and the song could have gotten radio play on big hip-hop radio stations which would have zero problem with the lyrical content. ------------------- High By The Beach, West Coast, and Florida Kilos all could have been hits. She just didn't put in the effort for that.

I don't think you're listening to the right song.

this gave me cancer

Sirens and AKA have grown so much on me lately.

I know. What I'm saying is that I doubt that that snippet is all of Methamphetamines.

Go Go Dancer should be remade for a new album. I wanna hear the Methamphetamines demo that was meant for Ultraviolence. I doubt an under two minute track was it.

It's because it's Bond-esque that it's an awful song. The lyrics aren't repetitive or boring, they're outright cringeworthy. The instrumentation itself is great, the lyrics are terrible.

I think 24 and Honeymoon were the weakest original songs on HM, and DLMBM is probably a good example of why she should leave other peoples' songs alone. I think the quality of her writing is declining.

Depends on what you mean when you say "declining". It's inarguable that in terms of albums sales, budgeting, relevance, etc., she's in decline. That's partially her own fault and partially beyond her control. Artistically (outside of budget limitations)? I don't know. I think that there's a sharpness between her best and worst songs on Honeymoon. On Born to Die and Ultraviolence, there may have been questionable quality songs, but they weren't bad or anything. However, the songs on Honeymoon it was obvious - to me - which songs were terrible and which were good, even from the recordings of the event she had. That's all subjective, so still. I don't know if - objectively - her art is in decline.

ngl, my only problem with Lana remixes is that it seems like - even with big name producers - it seems like they make little effort to make mixes that actually match the vocals. The most illustrative example being Cedric Gervais' remix of Young and Beautiful. It was like he slapped an EDM beat over the original and made no effort to really mix it. this is my favorite, and the best imo, Lana remix:

24 is the worst song of her entire career, unreleased included.

Honeymoon is a good album, but it's dragged down by its weakest songs. Honeymoon was a long opening track, but it dragged on because it didn't really do anything. Terrence Loves You is a really potentially good song, the Maida Vale Sessions show that, but the studio version is done badly. The volume is all over the place and whenever it gets loud, it gets very tinny and ends up with sounds in the background that make it unpleasant to listen to. 24 Hours is both out of place and its lyrics are awful. It sounds like a theme song for a self-aware Bond rip-off. And Lana should never do another Nina Simone cover again. She managed to drain all of the soul out of Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood.

High By The Beach is not trap. It might have minor trap elements. But it is not trap. And I am convinced that anyone who says otherwise has never actually listened to trap

It would not end well if she attempted to copy other people. Also, High on the Beach was barely trap. I'd like an album with more Lolita-esque songs. Not in the BTD 2.0 sense but in the "spit in my mouth daddy" sense.
