Incredible album that I didn’t see coming. Sounds very fresh. Love the concept.

To me, a « Lana bop » is a song that could get radio airplay, with some chill beats, or that could please her fans because it contains somewhat some of the « old Lana ». Agree with you that Peppers is a bop, TJF is kinda one (sure is underrated with the GP), but to me, the « bop » (very loosely here) on BB might be Dealer: not that it’s a light song, but the lyrics are very UV. Say Yes to Heaven is a nice pop song and bop-ish too. But my fave Lana bops are her summery tracks with a memorable melody and we need one of those

She needs another Doin’ Time

I have no problem with Jack working with Lana so far. They do bring another vibe to the songs they’re doing together that is unmatched with his other girlies. NFR, Violet and OB have incredible gems (OB had the genius concept of having piano samples - which aren’t always Jack’s best suite IMO - and build production around it, which made the tracks so rich and complex). I still love Chemtrails even if some songs do sound like a couple of Lorde tracks… So, as long as Lana’s ideas aren’t anything like what the other girlies are doing, I’m on board with Jack being a producer.

Yeah, it can’t be a Jack-only album: Taylor got him working 24-7 on all of her albums til his last fucking breath, no matter how uninspiring the songs may sound like

I really dont care about her hair colour or how it could / should affect the era’s album covers

It was, it’s from her Rolling Stone magazine cover story. She doesn’t hold anything back in this interview. more interesting to me though: Skinny is What Was I Made For’s little sister apparently and Rolling Stone calls her new album the best yet she put out 👀

For once, I am in no hurry for the era to start this early Many of my favourite artists are releasing up to July, and I want Lasso to be a bigger era, so the first songs of it need to be released at a time when they’ll be able to shine (and at a time I’ll be able to enjoy them).

I want to believe it could be for Lana (I really love those), but we’ve been deceived how many times already?

TTPD (anthology or not) is really not my fave from her and although I agree with many points made by them, I would have given it 7.5. Its a bit of a low score.

I really like this interpretation. Not that she she necessarily has a clear vision of things to come for her next albums, but there is a sorta pattern so far, in her discography: she has two major landmarks, two albums that defined the American culture or read that said culture : Born to Die and Norman Fucking Rockwell. Norman was preceded by the «transition album », an album for her troubled times. Ocean Blvd is also a transition album, one that helped her grieve. See where I’m going with this? Lasso could be her third Best American Record.

Camila and Lana singing I luv it? I never saw that one coming Sometimes the songs she decides to cover (no tea no shade, I just don’t like that song)

Coachella wasn’t the place to officially launch the era. Coachella was Coachella and not some stepping stone to an album We’re still too far from the supposed September release (if it’s not postponed). Sometimes this forum forgets how patient we become when an era officially begins . She can delay the first single to have a shorter pre-release of three or four months. as for Henry and her announcement at that industry event, some of us mentioned it was probably a strategic move, so she wouldn’t look as a Beyoncé copycat or of any other artist going country if she had said nothing but released a country album in the fall.

The Manuscript is my fave on that part of the album. It’s really heartbreaking

She apparently disses at her fans on a couple of tracks, according to this GQ article 👀 https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/taylor-swift-the-tortured-poets-department-diss
