This is actually my #1 most wanted song. It's been about 5 years now.. but I'll never give up hope

The fact this lyric thread was created almost 4 years ago now and we just now got the full song.. I suppose the message is to never give up hope! This must’ve been one of the longest waits we’ve had for a song. I think the longest waits to date have been for Life is Beautiful & Roses, which both leaked about 5 years after gaining knowledge of the songs’ existences x

Last night, Lana Del Rey attended Jack Donoghue's birthday party held at the Fraternal Order of Eagles social club in the Altadena neighbourhood in Los Angeles, California. Fans have been speculating that the two may be dating, and they were seen holding hands at the party.

Ben reposted her W Magazine cover with the caption "New music in the works" I feel that it's a good sign that one of her managers confirms new music is coming x

She really got all her OGs for this event! Marc Ramos coloured her hair for it, and he had been colouring her hair since 2011 until she switched to Tracey Cunningham in 2017 x

Our first ~insider news~ of the pre-pre-release:

Oops, autopilot! After struggling for so many weeks in the new year to not type 2021 instead of 2022, here I am now typing 2022 for everything I've adjusted it x

Putting in spoiler bc sort of a heavy reply:

It's so interesting how she described this, as Swan Song is my least favourite Lana song because it makes me sad. Honeymoon was released during a pretty difficult time in my life where all I wanted to do was give up on everything, and so Swan Song hit too hard and was essentially unlistenable to me. I think it really is one of her saddest songs. I can just imagine her singing it with glazed-over eyes. It's that feeling of numbness and total defeat. I'm so happy she's in a much better place now - and myself, too. I still struggle to listen to that song even now though as it just transports me back to that time which is why it remains my least favourite, but I've gained some appreciation for it recently and now, especially after this note from her. (It's funny how all my least favourite Lana songs in my ranking are solely because I have a bad memory tied to them. I really don't think she can make a bad song that I dislike just because of the song itself.) x

Noir vs Kinda Outta Luck

Just realised that when I made this thread first thing after I woke up, that I accidentally titled it a Pre-Release when it was meant to be a Pre-Pre-Release.. so I’ve adjusted the title. Sorry We’ll transition to Pre-Release when we have an album title/release date/lead single per usual x

May 24th! x

The time has come… LDR9 Pre-Pre-Release Thread

When I look back, tracing fingertips over plastic bags Thinking I wish I could extrapolate some small intention Or maybe just get your attention for a minute or two? Will I die? Or will I get to that ten-year mark Where I beat the extinction of telomeres? And if I do, will you be there with me? Father? Sister? Brother? Charlie, stop smoking Caroline, will you be with me? Will the baby be all right? Will I have one of mine? Can I handle it? Even if I do, they said that my mind It's not fit, or so they said, to carry a child I guess I’ll be fine It wasn’t my idea, the cocktail of things that twist neurons inside But without them, I’d die They say there’s irony in the music, It’s a tragedy, I See nothing Greek in it Give me a mausoleum in Rhode Island with dad, grandma, grandpa, and Dave Who hung himself real high In the national park sky It’s a shame, and I’m crying right now I didn’t get to you, save you If I take my life, find your astral body Put it into my arms Give you two seconds to cry Take you home, I I’ll give you a blanket Your spirit can sit and watch TV by my side ‘Cause baby I Went through a time when I felt you were doing it I couldn’t handle it, I was in Monaco I couldn’t hear what they said on the telephone I had to sing for the prince in two hours Sat in the shower Gave myself two seconds to cry It’s a shame that we die When I was fifteen, naked Next-door neighbors did a drive-by Pulled me up by my waist, long hair to the beachside I wanted to go out like you Swim with the fishes that he caught on Rhode Island beaches But, sometimes, it's just not your time, Caroline What kind of ~~~ was she to say I’d end up in institutions? All I wanted to do was kiss Aaron Greene and sit by The lake, twisting lime into the drinks that they made Have a babe at sixteen, the town I was wed in and die Aaron ended up dead and not me What the fuck’s wrong in your head To send me away never to come back? Exotic places and people don't take the place of being your child I give myself two seconds to cry Let it crash over me like the waves in the sea Call me Aphrodite as they bow down to me Sunbather, moon-chaser, queen of empathy I give myself two seconds to breathe And go back to being a serene queen I just needed two seconds to be me

Well everyone… the time has come. Welcome to the LDR9 Pre-Pre-Release Thread - Annual Discussion & Meltdown! Lana Del Rey has revealed to W Magazine that a new, still untitled album is in the works. "I’ve been practicing meditative automatic singing, where I don’t filter anything. I’ll just sing whatever comes to mind into my Voice Notes app. It’s not perfect, obviously. There are pauses, and I stumble. But I’ve been sending those really raw-sounding files to a composer, Drew Erickson, and he’ll add an orchestra beneath the words, matching each syllable with music and adding reverb to my voice. For this new music, it’s more just like: I’m angry. The songs are very conversational. For the first song, I pressed record and sang, “When I look back, tracing fingertips over plastic bags, I think I wish I could extrapolate some small intention or maybe get your attention for a minute or two.” It’s a very wordy album." What we know so far: - Lana will make an announcement about the album on December 7th, as stated in an Interview on November 30th, 2022 - Lana is working on an untitled album with a completed opening track, confirmed in her interview with W Magazine in May 2022 - Lana is collaborating with composer Drew Erickson, confirmed in her interview with W Magazine in May 2022 Speculations - Neil Krug & Anna Cofone may have involvement with the album photoshoot, as hinted in various Instagram posts, stories, and comments made by the three in December 2022 - Jack Antonoff worked with Lana on a song completed in April 2022 that could be on her record, as stated in his interview with The New Yorker in May 2022 - There is a possible collaboration with Jon Batiste, as Lana shared a video in a studio with him as a song snippet played on @honeymoon in August 2022 - Ian Kirkpatrick may be involved with the production, speculated after Lana shared a picture of a video call with him on her IG stories in September 2022 - Her father may be involved with the record as he shared photos in Jack Antonoff's studio in March 2022 - The record may be a digital-only release, per her statement during an Instagram Livestream in October 2021 - Lana wore a custom-made jacket by the director of LDR Village with a patch that said "DNC" that may pertain to the record in December 2021
