So sorry to hear Elle My app kept me in suspense for about 3mins. I panicked and tried to order again because I thought something went wrong. The app wouldn't let me order another one because I had a pending order already placed. Had it let me and I somehow ended up with 2, I totally would have given you one.

For sure, no shade on White Dress MV. I just remember Lana talking about the video before it came out and I had delusions of grandeur that we would be getting something akin to Candy Necklace, or Fuck it, I Love You / The Greatest, but in the end it was very lackluster imo. It kinda reminds me of the behind the scenes pics of 'Music To Watch Boys To'. They were so full of color and pizazz , but the end video was B&W, and (looking back on it) rather boring tbh. In the case of Candy Necklace, the B&W is part of what makes the video so captivating to watch. It works brilliantly in this context. Regardless, no shade to any of Lana's videos (even the ones that got reused for other songs... ULTRAVIOLENCE = Freak & Next Best American Record = White Mustang). She's an artist and has her reasons for what she chooses. Candy Necklace is pure perfection in my eyes

I've watched this video so many times. The symbolism throughout, the styling, the way it's broken apart to reveal the underbelly of the filming process. EVERYTHING IS STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL!!! I can't think of anything else to say about it. Ps. I remember Lana mentioning something about the White Dress music video before it dropped. Something along the lines of "getting to work with a director who knows how to make real music videos", bla bla bla. I couldn't find the actual quote from Lana. Who knows, maybe I'm remembering it wrong or something. Anyway, the end result of White Dress was ho-hum compared to this. Rich Lee is the shit! Lana should have saved that quote for Rich Lee because the two of them make unbelievable art together.

Not sure what I'm missing... I saved a link to NTWRK's website showing all of the pic discs that will be on sale tomorrow the 12th. They were all there yesterday, but as of today they are all gone I even have the NTWRK app with my account set up and the discs are nowhere to be seen. I was wanting to grab BTD & NIN Did these go on sale and sell out already? The announcement said they were going live on the 12th... today is the 11th Never mind... they took the front page down with all the releases shown, but a quick Goog search got me a direct link

Possibly Unofficial Release of Smarty on YouTube Music

WTF 🤯 -
Fell down a rabbit hole looking at Lana's songs under ACE Repertory. I noticed under 'Yes To Heaven' there was another artist listed as a performer (actually, there are 3 apart from Lana, the other two I can't find any info about). Anyways, who is Christi Buckley? She released a cover of Yes To Heaven last year and apparently replied to some Reddit fans that the single will be part of a bigger project coming out this year. Is this the reason there have been copyright warnings for Yes To Heaven going out? She's shown as one of the performers of the song on ACE Repertory. It's literally the only song on her Spotify page and she has over 400k followers. That's a lot of followers for only having a single song. Sorry is this question has already been brought up.

Just here to say, I'm glad they have removed the Judah Smith interlude on the new vinyl version coming out. That track has been blocked on Spotify since my first full listen to Ocean Blvd. Going from A&W into Candy Necklace is how I've become accustomed to this album playing out. FINALLY a vinyl version I can listen to beginning to end without skipping a track. That track knocked this album down a few notches for me tbh. Having a blocked track on a Lana album has been very disconcerting. Glad to put that trigger track behind me finally!! Also tata vinyl is a winwin!! Ps. I wonder if Judah Smith had something to do with the removal of the track given Lana's tata would be hanging out on the cover? Just wondering why it's been removed on the new version. I'm totally ok with its removal, just curious why.

Judah Smith Interlude
J.R.OMEGA replied to Elle's topic in Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd
Yes, it's actually called "Hide This Song" and it works great. Once you hide the track, it will grey out the song title. That way you know it will never play again. -
Judah Smith Interlude
J.R.OMEGA replied to Elle's topic in Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd
Worst track (if you want to call it that) Lana has ever released. As a recovering Christian, this track was triggering. I listened to it once, and blocked it from ever playing again on Spotify. I can't believe I blocked a Lana track I knew going into the album that this track featured a sermon, but I was hoping Lana would be scatting or something to make it redeemable. Yeah, nothing. Thank you, next.- 61 replies

Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd - Merch & Media Drop
J.R.OMEGA replied to Elle's topic in New Releases
Honestly, I hope so. There is a part of me starting to think the tata vinyl was a production mockup that never made it to the final stage. We know from Lana herself that the original cover she was leaning towards was a nude. She ultimately changed her mind and went with the one's we've seen. Maybe she still wanted to put the nude mockup out in the Universe or something, so that's why she posted it 🤷🏼♂️ I'd freaking LOVE LOVE LOVE a vinyl boxset with that pic as the vinyl sleeve or something. The closer we get to the album launch without vinyl boxset preorders going up, the more I'm thinking that's not going to happen 😔 Boxsets take time to fabricate, so either there would be a set amount available on launch day, and when they sell out they're gone. Or they'd be up for purchase, but not shipping for a few months. Some insiders said Lana had a surprise coming. Either it's new music related, or it's not, that's the debate. So who knows. -

Yeah, I ordered autographed merch for BB and then they canceled my order on the day of release. I don't get my hopes up for signed merch at this point. I might be delusional, but I'm still hoping for a tata vinyl boxset 🤞🏻 -

So do we think this is the same version of ...Ocean Blvd that HMV in the UK & Target in the US is getting? As far as I can tell, there isn't anything different. Not sure why it's limited to 500 copies though http:// https://www.hhv.de/shop/en/item/lana-del-rey-did-you-know-that-there-s-a-tunnel-under-ocean-blvd-hhv-x-urban-exclusive-alternate-artwork-dark-pink-vinyl-edition-w-poster-972038 -

I received a confirmation instantly after my order. Since I ordered via my phone, I took a screenshot of the confirmation number as a just in case situation. I just checked my email, and I did received an email confirmation as well. I know that doesn't really help your situation. Just wanted you to know confirmations were sent. I hope you find your order!! -

J.R.OMEGA replied to Elle's topic in New Releases
Why does her UK store get all the bundle packages? People in the States have to piecemeal everything and it gets to be more expensive in the end. I mean, I've now placed multiple orders with her US store, each with their own shipping cost -

Oh... never mind then. Yes, I was talking about the Assai numbered version. It was worth a shot at least -

They are sold out, and only ship within the UK. This isn't something they did with the COCC release. Not sure why this one is different. -

I'll offer to buy it off of you tbh. I'll obvi pay for shipping to the States. Doesn't help you very much until it releases tho -

J.R.OMEGA replied to Elle's topic in New Releases
Ahhh!!! When did these go up for sale? I have the COCC version from Assai. Weird that this release is for the UK only I was able to order the COCC version and ship to the States before. Yeah, I get that there isn't anything different about this variant, but that OBI strip is a nice touch. As a collector, it's also a nice edition to have, but strictly on a collection level. Where are you seeing these? I have looked on her Dutch site and I don't see them anywhere. Where are the different cassettes?
