I think this song is easily the most beautiful thing she's ever done. Lyrically it's just so vivid and yet hazy, like a half-forgotten Polaroid. And the production is so simple, and yet so powerful. Not to mention the trip-hop influences. Just....wow. Songs like this are why I fell for Lana in the first place.

1) You and Me

9) You and Me
Bonus track: sorrynotsorry
 
That song should have been on BTD. It is perfection in every sense, sheer genius in its production, stunning in its vocals--just the swelling orchestra and the wails and undgwkhjdhdka I want to marry it sonically, visually, thematically and musically. It needs to be released and seriously I would sell my soul to hear it live. 

FIRST OF ALL THE DRUMS OH MY GOD I LOVE THE INSTRUMENTAL         
 
second of all "cubano como yo" means "Cuban like me".......is this white girl claiming to be Cuban now or??? Maybe she spiritually identifies with the Cuban people idk I can't wait for all the cultural appropriation rants on tumblr

Even lizzy grant had more iconic looks

Honestly, I've fallen back in love with 'Love' bc of all the news and excitement, do you guys still think it's possible for her to release a radio mix? Can you imagine that? I've been thinking about how popular it could be if the beat was reworked or a little more uptempo, like maybe they changed the progression of the drums, and not that popularity matters it's just I feel like everyone needs to hear this song right now Lmao

Not expecting btd level promo but it would be nice if she were to actually show some pride in her work and promote- running the late night mill, doing interviews, photoshoots, etc.,
Her image is half her appeal and what drew so many of us in...now she does nothing to support it, as a fan it leaves you feeling kinda shafted. I dnt even care about sales, it's just the experience as a fan.. Hopefully this album will be another uv and speak for itself...

The fact that she has low numbers in the UK doesn't surprises me anymore, she neglected that market
 
But realistically can we expect big numbers after UV and HM and the way she promoted her music? She has 10 mil. views for Love on youtube in 3 days which is great. Will she have 100 mil. in a month? No. First, Lana doesn't have a broad appeal, she never had it btw, and secondly she doesn't do any heavy promo (tv+radio). The song is good but rarely a song becomes a hit without heavy involvement from the artist.
 
I don't see yet any particular promotional  strategy in this era. The only realistic strategy in my opinion is to win back some of the people who bought BTD but even that is very difficult for many reasons I will not dwell on here. It doesn't help that her management seems more focused on that Dua singer. 
 
A more pop sound is not necessarily equivalent with commercial success (Carly) and trash. Depression is hard to pull of artistically and frankly can become boring and meaningless after some time. A more pop Lana is a more energized and optimistic Lana to me which has something else to say besides self-loathing.
 
So forget the charts and enjoy the music and videos

Holy shït it's the first time she has appropriate shoes since 2012. She looks gorgeous and so stylish

I can feel this album will be Honeymoon 2.0 - bye

I kinda feel bad for Rick Nowels, like I don't think it's only his fault that Honeymoon sounds the way it sounds. Kieron Menzies and Lana herself were producers as well and I can imagine that Lana wanted this minimal production.
 
Anyway, am I the only one who has a hard time trying to get hyped for this album? I love Lana, but I'm not here for "uninspired", "lazy", "weak" (production-wise) songs? I want exciting songs like Born To Die, Blue Jeans, Off To The Races, Ride, Gods & Monsters and most of Ultraviolence. But at least the video seems to be beautiful, I mean, that's something. 
 
@@Eclipse, do you know who produced the lead single and the title track? We know Justin Parker, Rick Nowels and Emile Haynie worked on this album, right?

if we end up getting bored, uninspired songs like i can fly and big eyes production- and lyricswise, ugh....i'm gonna be so pissed.

I give zero fucks about a political album.
 
I want lip injections, dead eyes and hair extensions tbh.

When I first started stanning Lana, back in the late-BTD days, I associated her music a lot with her look and it’s harder thinking about how she probably won’t go back to the beauty queen hair and paradise tour outfits than thinking about how I won’t get a BTD 2.0. I think it’s just the entirety of that era that makes me not appreciate Ultraviolence and Honeymoon as much as everyone else. It was perfect for me but I understand how other people would connect the way I do to this album to the others.
 
But anyways, I’m a BTD stan but very unproblematic about it.

omg love that idea sfm

i feel like she is gettin a lot of positive feedback from the weeknd tracks. she should def tease something, like right now, actually...

If her new album sounds like her Stargirl Interlude from The Weeknd's album it'll be a great album. I like the sounds and the beat.

A$ap is SHOÖK, poor him

I would have no problems if they announced they were dating

I think so too. It reminds me of BTD also. Idk why. But it does.

It's crazy to think they could've wrote her one more verse and then put the weeknds part in and then ended the song with more "I shouldn't cry but I love it." It could've been a solid 3 minute interlude. It sucks that right when you're feeling it it just fades away like it never happened

and the songs we have heard so far are all great. This makes me think of what a wasted opportunity HM was. If she only went with better single choices and more engaging visuals, it could have done so much better.
 
And bitch better bring Abel on her new album. Idk what's stopping her

The Weeknd era is so well executed. Single choice, promo singles, videos. All amazing. I hope she is capable of doing something similar. And I hope for some good features. 

He's sexy in a weird way... but like I'd only date him if I were going through a rough patch
