"Lolita" is listed as the 4th best work of fiction in history by Modern Library, so its popularity and importance clearly transcend the perv crowd.

The music was written by Tchaikovsky, believe it or not.
 
It can be heard here starting at about 28 seconds:
 
 

People on twitter are literally insane. I haven’t been on in a month and am genuinely happier. My last straw was when people actually thought she intentionally posted those looters to expose them like... and I also feel like it’s just a negative site in general. From stan twitter toxicity to sjws claiming if you don’t post blm links on social media you’re automatically racist... a whole mess. 

I've never heard Lana speak with a New York accent, but it can be heard in her singing.  For example, the way she says "dirty" in "Behind Closed Doors" is straight out of NYC.  (I worked there for three years.)  In the fadeout at the end of the song (behind closed doors, doors, doors, etc.), she clearly says "doas, doas, doas" with the almost silent "r", which is common to various degrees all over the northeast.  (For those outside of the U.S., there are many, many accents in this country.  If one drives up I-95 from NY to Massachusetts, the accents are much different and easily identifiable.  Accents in Houston and Dallas are different, too.  No one on the TV show "Dallas" sounds anything like they are from Dallas - not to me, anyway, and I've lived there.)
 
Lana has great control of her voice, and the southern inflection she injects into some of her early songs is pretty much perfect.  She doesn't overdo it, so it sounds smooth and natural.

Yesterday, Lana Del Rey & her boyfriend Sean "Sticks" Larkin visited Blackbird Coffeehouse in Albuquerque, New Mexico before her show later that night.

single cover leaked
 

It's probably syrup.  I think she is saying, "You're golden grill, your purple drink".  "Purple drank" aka "sizzurp" is made from codeine cough syrup and fruit punch or probably any other soft drink available.  Abuse of this concoction is what put Lil Wayne in the hospital and ended up forcing number one overall draft pick Jamarcus Russel out of the NFL.  Even if she does say "purple dream", this is probably what she is talking about.

does anyone REALLY care about her metacritic score? i thought we were over it just as soon as critics trashed BTD seven fucking years ago lmao

I looked it up and the video says January 27th of this year, but was put up on the 24th, which was pretty impressive.
 

I hope she covers "Can't Help Falling In Love".

so y'all are now like "no new material leaks" but when i said that shit when LFL leaked y'all CAME for me 

Sorry guys, but the Yayo AKA version is flawless and amazing, officially her best x

Lana is hands down the best look on that red carpet tn.... literally she has no competition out there 

Everytime someone says LFL has political songs I cringe hard. Those superficial songs with the depth of a tumblr blog are not something I'd proudly promote as "woke" tracks ... That her insta-girlie and flower crown-fag fans fall for that does not suprise me. But even critics refer to LfL as "political".

You need some serious help 

Speaking of White Mustang... that song seems to have a lot of replay value for me. It's short, nice to drive to and relatively GP friendly. It's a Lana song I don't mind playing around my friends who don't love her as much as I do. Same goes for Cherry and Summer Bummer. Heroin is my favorite song from this record (and in my top 3 favorite Lana songs ever) but I don't play it as much. It's so raw and emotional, I have to be in the right mindset to hear it (same with Change, another favorite of mine). I guess songs like White Mustang and Cherry are just easy to listen to!
 
I was actually playing LFL in my car the other day and my non-Lana-loving-friends responded really well to the Cherry-In My Feelings section of the album, which I thought was really interesting (being that we were on our way to a folk concert and they preferred the hip-hop inspired songs rather than darker and/or folksier songs like TNC and Heroin).

Okay this is my LFL album ranking
 
 
1. Love - 10/10
 
2. Lust for Life 8/10
 
3. 13 Beaches 8/10
 
4. Cherry 8/10
 
5. White Mustang 7/10
 
6. Summer Bummer 8/10
 
7. Groupie Love 8/10
 
8. In My Feelings 5/10
 
9. Coachella - Woodstock In My Mind 4/10
 
10. God Bless America - 7/10
 
11. When The World Was At War We Kept Dancing 6/10
 
12. Beautiful People Beautiful Problems 6/10
 
13. Tomorrow Never Came - 3/10
 
14. Heroin 5/10
 
15. Change 9/10
 
16. Get Free 9/10

Stevie's backup vocals make me picture this
 
"Weeeee're juuuuuust"

 
"BEAUTIFUL PEEEEOOOOPPLLLEEE"

 
"Yeaaahhh"

25 is kind of a lot. I would rather her do like 12-16 songs. 
 
Someone in the LFL thread said that they don't want her re-recording or changing any of the songs... tbh I disagree. I think she should touch up all the unreleased songs since we already have most of the originals. 

with the proportion of losers lana has ended up with in the past ten years she's eventually gonna just call up elon musk and have him build her a man 

The first (of many, probably) Lust For Life track rankings:
 
Cherry
Tomorrow Never Came
In My Feelings
Get Free
Groupie Love
Beautiful People, Beautiful Problems
Summer Bummer
13 Beaches
White Mustang
Love
Change
When The World Was At War
God Bless America
Heroin
Lust For Life
Coachella
 
Here's some random sidenotes since I haven't posted much about the album, just been taking time to soak it in:
