Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread
GeminiLanaFan replied to Elle's topic in Retired Pre-Release Threads
This is why I think we are getting snippets of all the songs of NFR : she is beating those retail sites that put up the tracklist before her and the French site that posted a preview of all the songs before the release. -
Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

I get your point and it is a valid one. She shouldn't have scrapped Yosemite for the reasons you said and that I share. When was the second RBFY snippet released? I think it was December 2017? She also said in one of the interviews for MAC or VB that she had a writer's block in those times. At first, when I saw the video, I thought it meant she would release it or would include it on a new record. With those new infos she gave us in September, to me, it seems as if she is questiong herself what she should do with it. As for the snippets thing, to this date, it's always been true. Maybe she'll change her strategy, but since her social media is the best confirmation we have of things and some official press releases, I tend to trust it. If I'm wrong, guys, I will admit it with much grieve and apologies. -

Yosemite never was previewed on her Insta with a snippet She talked about it a lot, but never gave us a snippet of it on Insta. As long as I've not heard Bartender on her insta, i will treat it like Sylvia: not sure it will end up on NFR. But if a snippet is posted on her Insta' it's safe. -

Architecture was never confirmed to be on LFL. We leaked it, hoped she would do like she did with Black Beauty and include it, but she scrapped the acoustic side of LFL, leaving Yosemite and Architecture out of it. We all know LFL changed over time due to her dating fiasco, the shift in politics and the leaks, plus she had begun doing the interviews, thinking LFL would be done by that time, which it wasn't. She talked about Yosemite very much over interviews, but at least she didn't tease it with a snippet. Then again, if she had, I'm pretty sure she would have included it on LFL (cue my new catch phrase : to the exception of RBFY, she included on a record all the songs she teased with a snippet). She did. But after that, someone (the director? another dude?) says: «Want to switch to the other song, boss lady?» The video was surely meant for BAR, but she probably wasn't sure of the third single of the album, and the video shooting was already scheduled. Could explain why she never sings any of the lyrics in the video: there was always a possibility of the bAR video being for another song. again, gays and gals, I will be repeating myself to calm the fuck out of you: to the exception of RBFY, which she clearly stated it wouldn't be on LFL, all the songs she teased with a snippet ended up on a record. So Cinnamon is safe, In Your Car is safe also. True, we lack info, but the info we get from her on social media are exact. -

Here's the thing about us: we don't always listen. She said RBFY weren't on LFL, but it sounded so good we hoped she would include it. when she didn't, we were mad. But she said she wouldn't !!! it's the «hope she will change her mind for what we want» syndrome. Same with the country songs. do they sound nice? yes! Will they be on NFR? Nope, she said so herself. -

Do I still need to state the facts about the snippets? « she changes her mind all the time about her records » and « She scraps everything » are the two worst misconceived ideas on this site. -

This is getting tiring. The only time she scrapped a good bunch of an album was UV (LFL didn’t get scrapped all over, just the acoustic part). And we know how great it turned out for Uv. And she hadn’t teased anything from it before scrapping it. -

I get the feeling. At this point, I kinda wonder myself what is the « plan » and timeline for the NFR release, because it does even random. As for the two country songs, I see them as NFR rejects and never had much hope they would end up on the album. I don’t see them fitting with what we heard this far, plus they were played live and not shared by her via social media. -

It will. No doubt in my mind. I’ve said it a million times already: to the exception of RBFY, all the songs she teased with a snippet ended up on the album. Now we just need to know WHEN we’ll have that damn album. -

Nothing. We are out of things to say, so it is basically fucking random around here. -

Amen! That I could dig. Or a bit of a grunge 90’s song would be cool as a some point. Dan is the main producer of UV, yes. I wasn’t clear. I wanted to say that UV and HM were both flawless, one was produced by Dan and the other by Rick. -

Rick gave us HM,Which is basically flawless, along with UV. He’s good, but i’m glad When she brings someone else for the ride also. -

Ewwwwww, no, not the 80’s!!! One of the worst decades, musically speaking! And besides, we’ve had the 80’s revival in 2000... we sure don’t need her to go down that decade. Everyone here hated the trap beats and you tell me you want synths all over an album?!??Lana’s music is best when it is timeless: strings, instruments and 60’s-70’s vintage touch to the prod. -

HIaB is really liked among her « casual fans ». LB often has different taste than her other fans. -
Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread
GeminiLanaFan replied to Elle's topic in Retired Pre-Release Threads
As you know, I am a super big supporter of her and she cannot do wrong... for the most parts. My main concern is how long the pré-era is. She started teasing HIaB for almost a year. When the two fan singles were released, I was more than thrilled ... then she began teasing again. I get that she wants to let us in on her project and its « process », but it just says to my mind: the album is coming very soon, which it isn’t. Also, an official release date would be welcome. But as the « she should just tell us something », we don’t always listen, don’t we: with the first interviews for MAC and VB, she said she wanted the album to be out at the top of 2019, after having published a poetry book. Is it what is happening? Is she sticking to her word? Possible. But that’s the thing: she says something, we know she changes her mind, and we hope she will for what WE expected. -

wasn't directly addressed to LB fans... But he gave an interview about his management (he was receiving an award I think?), and said Lana is preparing a new album and her fans were as «rabid as ever». If he needed proofs, the last pages are all he needs. People here were offended as hell. -

I’m not so sure of that: everyone is craving for NFR. Us, critics, fans outside the stans circle. True. And it went to number 2. The album’s supremacy happened over time, slowly taking off. The January release must have been « logical » in order to beat the iron while it was hot: she had released video games in the summer and a couple of other songs... People were curious about her and interscope needed to have an album out, even if January releases aren’t always the best.
