Tristesse

This album truly is her best yet.

This album truly is her best yet.

This album truly is her best yet.

the way some people cannot wrap their head around the fact that their favorite artist is not a circus animal designed to dance and perform for them 24/7 to "keep them entertained" is truly something
 
i am so glad she does not listen to her "fans". some of them are truly her biggest enemies truly.

Call me grumpy or whatever but I really disliked their reaction to some songs. Fake over exaggerations, constant hand movements etc really annoyed me for some reason. You can like a song without trying too hard to convey the viewers 

So many questions

i can't believe i'm saying this but this is lowkey her best album... like fr
norman was like something made to love and this one is MUCH heavier but... it's so fucking good and risky and lyrically she's fucking killing it 
every time i'm listening to it i'm having new fav tracks and i'm finding something new i love about her vocals, production and lyrics
 
AND the way so many people (including me obv) were starting this album being unsure about if it's good or not and over next few days i'm seeing so many of them changing their minds like  i just feel like this album is out of its world
 
it's not an everyday album like norman was for sure but this is actually kinda why it's even better... if you know you KNOW

TBH all the "Jack vs other producers talk" makes Lana look like someone who's artistic integrity, process, and growth is tied to the men she's worked with--rather than accepting that she's forged her own way and evolved into the musician she wants to be. 
 
Lana is in complete creative control, and to blame her falters on Jack or any other producer also means to diminish her successes as the result of her producers; both are untrue. 

My god look at these visuals, i think they may be her best? That church pic is so haunting, i'm kinda blown away...

Candy Necklace just sounds so expensive and otherworldly. She still got that sauce and mysticism I was afraid she'd lost over the time. 

so… after sitting with the album for a a few days i have to say… total and utter excellence
 
truly getting better with each listen. not a single song i downright dislike, some i won’t play much sure but no big skips 
 
she really did it again i fear 
 
i may do a track by track review later later xoxo

Some people were like "Oh maybe she needed to dial back on the mom shade," which tbh just sounds silly.

But I just had a thought - because they just took out the main vocal (which is why you can still hear "mother" in the underlying harmony beneath the instrumental,) there's honestly a chance that the "censoring" of the word is rather...how do I explain this.

Basically the question answers itself because Lana's saying, no, that wasn't a mother at all. Why even humor the idea that a mother would be the person Lana's mother was to her? Why call her a mother in any way?

I don't know. It's 4 A.M., I'm high. I wish we had the original, BUT for some reason, thinking of it like that... I get it?

The way every song is a 10 like. 
 
OKAYYYY

Wow… I’ve done a full listen and gone back over a few tracks. I was speechless almost the whole time. I see why she organized the album as it is, she’s contemplating life, death, her family, and loved ones in the beginning. Then theres an underlying theme of her wanting to find love and struggling with her sexuality and her relationships and her religion. I think it’s her most personal work to date. By the end of the album, she’s looking on the brighter side of life, feeling secure in her own. I haven’t fully digested it yet, it is one of her most gut wrenching albums in my opinion. Candy necklace is immediately one of my favorite songs ever made by anyone, taco truck x vb was so fun and I thought it was a very interesting place to leave off the album, I wonder if it’s a taste of what’s to come.

there actually isn't a single bad or even mediocre song on the record for me personally, I'm pleasantly surprised! just from my first 1.5 "true" listens, I can already tell that this is a special body of work

Maybe censoring [cop] and [mother] is a statement. She doesn't want to have their name coming from  her mouth.

i feel like this might even beat out norman for me. might.

ok so now that everybody's here we can say how LET THE LIGHT IN is her new best song 

Uuuuuuh, the album is also available in Dolby Atmos on Tidal heavenly

Uuuuuuh, the album is also available in Dolby Atmos on Tidal heavenly

Uuuuuuh, the album is also available in Dolby Atmos on Tidal heavenly

Now wtf happened to "Rosemead exclusive baby" sound and why did Lana's team decided to remove these off each song  i prefer leaked unmastered versions

I just listened to the album for the first time, without having heard a single thing from it.
