Sis, how did UV flop on the charts if she beat Sam Smith for the #1 spot on Billboard 200. AML debuted at #1...on the R&B charts. And on top of that he STILL got dragged by 9 out every 10 critics that reviewed the album. So that's that on that.gif 
As for all the other comparisons.
1. I'm fully aware of his Hollywood career (it's much more successful than his music).
 
2. I never said it was dependant on JUST sales, I remember mentioning critical reception.
("I guess the whole world needs a magnifying glass")
 
3. Sis, bringing up people that don't have anything to do with the Debate at hand is not helping your case. But go off, I guess.
 
Sidenote: sorry if I came off rude. I tend to get "aggresive" in debates and whatnot. I should probably be a lawyer lmao

..of the black into the blue
 
 
her magnum opus!

um this "we know nothing about celebrities" shit is partially untrue. we know what lana wants us to know, and on LFL she's telling you she's succeeding in her way to happiness...  

Awaken My Love was a flop attempt at switching up and trying a new sound. Me And Your Mama was the only truly good song, and the rest of the album couldn't even come close to it's quality. Redbone is trash, and the GP loves trash so that's why it's a hit. Also don't compare the album to UV, bc at least UV was made with actual effort. Meanwhile he basically released an instrumental album that sounds like something Shaggy and Scooby made while high on acid.

I think it's going to be about Lana's struggle with finding happiness, and the things she does to find happiness. 
 
"Happiness is like a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you.
Happiness is like a butterfly: the more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder."

Well, a song can be about the most depressive things ever, and can be really sad if we're talking about the message, but if the melody it's more happy sounding, then, evrybody kinda sees it primarily as a happy song, where in reality, it's pretty bittersweet...
It's like when everybody said Video Games was a really sad song but in reality it was a happy song, lana being just nostalgic over happy moments in her life

good point! But I think that even if the song sounds happy/sweet, it may be kinda sad... I mean, HBTB is kinda upbeat but it's talking about lack of privacity

Yeah, I know but the melody sounds pretty happy/sweet so..

I literally don't know why do u guys think that HiaB is a happy song. It's saying that the happiness escapes from her, and it's inspired by Nathaniel Hawthorne, who is one of the most important gothic authors

Her last to the Moon tour outfits have really been suggesting this aethetic and cherry really goes with it maybe she can dive more into that sound, mixing dark ultraviolence vibes with loud strings and vintage sexy visuals and vocals  
Although happiness is a butterfly totally contradicts this, maybe that song could be a deep cut like change or something? I really hope she does something like this...

the only time they worked was on honeymoon

watch her come out with a full pop/trap album with a reproduced yosemite hiab and rbfy

I will fight her if she do this. I'm gonna report her to @elle

we will BOMB!
 

we mean folk as an umbrella term for a lot of sub-genres, psychedelia included. it's just easier to say folk

I'm not saying I want a complete folk album..I just like the idea of the van being a new car in the cover 'cause it's retro and it evokes the hippie era, which ties really well with this more optimistic side of her and her music. And also in that era besides folk, other genre that was growing really fast and big was psychedelia (at least from what I know) So yes, 1-2, maybe 3 more folky songs, but the rest of the album I really want pure psychedelic Lana, with nice reverb, tons of different guitars, some dreamy synths in the background, just to give it that bonus eerie sound, and some orgasmic drums 

I think that GBA is like the more americana folk and the second part is the folkier more hippie one , which is WTWWAWWKD

God Bless America is very Americana / Western to me, but at the same time it blends into the New York sound like in the pre-chorus, it's so crazy how they mesh

It's...a guitar

GBA isn't folk at all. its americana
