  1. For sure. Just want to clarify to everyone in this thread that I'm not insinuating any of your love for the track is inauthentic. Just thinking hypothetically about the possibility of a much more mellow reaction to the track if it was, say, 5 minutes long and more like Cinnamon Girl than the song as it is now. I love the track, it's super unique and well crafted, I just find the American Whore section to be the heart and soul of the song.
  2. That's what I really want to point out though. I'm glad the song is capturing people's attention. I just have a feeling that if A&W was five minutes long with a cool outro that we know as the transition, people would be crying about another Chemtrails/Blue Banisters incoming. It's just glaringly obvious to me at this point. In my opinion, songs like White Dress, Chemtrails, Wildflower Wildfire, Blue Banisters deserved similar respect to A&W.
  3. For me, personally, I have to agree with those people. It's an excellent song, extremely well crafted, but I have a very difficult time believing that a lot of people who have been criticising her music for years would be super positive towards A&W without the Jimmy section. Just my opinion!
  4. I know that Jack was probably just referring to Lana's instagram username, but I really am getting a "Honeymoon from hell" vibe, with a little bit of Jack's Norman touch on top. Both albums have grand, lush orchestras, a little bit of an outlier (High by the Beach and A&W), super introspective and poetic, etc.

  9. "Eulogy for the American Dream." Tired of this cliché written about Lana's music post Norman.
  10. Lana doesn't even remember her own lyrics half the time
  11. I'm so glad that I'm pretty much musically illiterate/ignorant, because A&W doesn't sound like anything Jack or Lana has ever done to me.
  12. I keep hearing conflicting reports on what counts as a filtered stream. Do you have to listen to two other tracks in between each listen and have your volume up? Has that ever been confirmed
  13. Can confirm everything you've said, people were dragging Honeymoon to the pits when it dropped, almost worse than people drag Blue Banisters today
  14. Thanks for not letting other people rewrite history; I clearly remember people loving Drew's work on Blue Banisters and dragging Jack because of it
