No no no… I don't want Cinnamon yet.
 
I love it too much, I wanna hear it on the album in full for the first time. I reckon we'll get HTD or NFR.

Why is this fandom suddenly so obsessed with Lana scrapping already released singles when there is literally no reason to expect this to happen?

Since she didn't shoot the cover with Neil, I hope she's experimenting with new photographers (yes I know we're getting another Chuck cover but let a man dream for once)

Very unlikely those are scrapped. Besides, am I the only one who hears sad tones / melancholy in those 2 songs??!?! The two are surely super introspective, very intimate. 
She said the record is sad girl shit, but it doesn't mean that all songs are «sadcore-I'm-about-to-overdose» like some songs were on UV. Sylvia will probably be a huge sad song, but I think the key is mostly introspective here for the whole record. 

she scoot 

Did I miss anything in 4 days? All I know is that I saw the livestream and there might be a song out on January 8th and the album is mastered and finished and that I need to buy lube for the pounding that's about to happen

Omg..I've been such a downer on this era because I haven't been feeling the hype but my wig removed itself when she said " this is gonna be some deeply introspective thoughtful.. sad girl shit" oh wow... oh wow I FELT THAT I'm ready for some soft surf rock back road sad white girl blues. I'm 100% here for the album cover reshoot the fact that she said "she was too LAZY to do it" means that she's actually gonna put some effort in and deliver some good fucking visuals and if it's an idea she's had for a while is even better because she's put some thought into it! Ben has made some shit decisions in the past I'm sure but with the way Lana's taste for visuals has been (ugly ass MAC/VB covers) I'm with Ben on this one

Imagine her buying fashion nova clothes just so she can wear them around her house and vlog about it and then not post it bc she considers it personal growth

The chances were really slim... Besides, maybe it was recorded earlier on, though I doubt it will end up on NFR

Let's be real, the cover is gonna suck since Chuck will shoot it anyways. I'm just praying it won't be as gross as LFL's cover

Ditto on the atmosphere, and the HBTB single cover. For me, the cover's got to have some kind of balance to it, bc it'd give a sense of strength and stability to it, which in turn would make me think that the artist's confident in their work, like how solid is intent

Now I am intrigued with cover... I am of the few who don't care that much about an album cover, as long as it's not plain ugly (and it takes a lot for me to find a cover ugly) and it reflects the atmosphere of the album. 
Chuck's photo for the HBTB single is, to me, the most beautiful of her covers. though I really love the UV one. 

Happy that Ben done the good for once. Quick Chuck ass

Basically, everything is almost done with the album, except for the cover, and that's only because her manager wants her to do another one.
And btw, I think we're staying with 11 songs.
 
Also, I saw some of you saying that the songs we got weren't really introspective, and I only agree for MAC and VB. Cinnamon seems to be a song about being afraid to love and be loved because of a troubled and hard past, and depression. HIAB lyrics mix sadness and hope, but again, she talks about love and being afraid to be hurt again. Sylvia Plath is extremely sad. From the lyrics we got, I completely see why she told it was the saddest song she ever wrote. She talks about being under pressure and being treated like a dumb and fake girl. But she's not what people think she is. And maybe she's not perfect enough for some people, and that's why she ends up alone. That's what I personally get from the snippet.

YES! The first rumored photo seemed more like an unpolished idea didn't really fit in well with much of anything, like it looked like it was idk 2 deviations away from what the record was bc it had the spunk, but it would've just fizzled out quick and would've left the music some kind of awkward stale, and all disconnected 

If he is a serial killer
Then what's the worst, that could happen to a girl
Who's already hurt
I'm already hurt -
 
If he is as bad as they say
Then I guess I'm cursed
Looking into his eyes
I think he's already hurt
 
:sluttybunny:

i agree 100%!!! the first one was a nice photo, but the one we got encapsulates the whole attitude and mood of the girl she describes on the album. 

Controversial, but I actually like the cover that we got for UV, the original pic seemed a bit too loud and upfront, and actually, at least for me, felt a bit flat bc of the lighting and didn't really feel like it could've encapsulated the charm UV had. The muted gray on the cover felt like a fucking silent scream, and how faded yet controlled it looked pixel wise, and how the light escaped thru the foliage from the back, with her standing out of the car, felt more dreamy, and mysterious, which gave the record's aesthetic more of a slowburner feel like how Cruel World opens it. 

The alt cover felt like it was too pandering towards some kind of false edginess with the centeredness of her head, that she didn't really need to have proven. Also, it looked less elegant and didn't have all that much magic to it, even if the cigarette was being ignited. Didn't really have that staying power, unlike the cover that we actually got 

I think we are forgetting that by ''deeply introspective thoughtful sad girl shit'' she actually means songs like HIAB, HTD, Sylvia, VB and MAC....so maybe not that introspective after all huh 
 
..Actually I take that back partially, the yrics on HTD and MAC are great and they seem to be good on Sylvia too...hmm, I gues we'll see how deep she goes on this album but nonetheless, I'm excited

wow Ben said fuck chucks cover do another one. I thought Ben hated Lana fans?

I dont see yosemite having a place in the album..she said she didnt put it on LFL because it was "too happy" and now she described her album "deep sad girl introspective" ...but you never know with Lana lol

The part where she talks about the album cover.... Ben not being sure just sounds like a biiiiiiiig no no.
But the one she's going to shoot and compare sounds so interesting. I hope we at least get to see both.

Same! I want to save the best for last. I still want to have the cake even though I'm desperate to eat it

lets start a twitter hashtag or smth to show her that we REALLY want that January single so that bitch won't forget about it AGAIN

This is what I get for going to sleep early I miss the news
