I'm hoping that since she's decided to do something new every album or whatever that she goes back to having some hip hop tones again. Far fetched dream but I loved born to die. Maybe she'll have a unreleased Florida Kilos feel for the next album... or maybe she'd even do a soft and slow album like bloozy(bluesy). I dont know. I'm just excited period. I cant get enough.
 
I'm okay with her subject matter. In fact I love it, because it's soo storytelling like. You guys cant just expect her to change how she writes that's kinda set in stone really.
 
I LOVE the title Music To Watch Boys To..... because that's what I wanna do while listening to it. lol
 
I say the more music the better. Gotta stay relevant.

I thought it might be useful to dedicate one thread to the early tidbits of info we are getting about Lana'a up-coming fourth studio album.

Here's what we have thus far:
 
Interview for The Fader:
I’m a big jazz aficionado. Hopefully my next foray will be into jazz. I feel like I’m getting there with songs like ‘Shades of Cool’ and ‘Cruel World’ and a cover of ‘The Other Woman’ by Nina Simone. I’m inching towards what I really love, which is kind of a Chet Baker, Nina Simone-inspired sound. It’s hard to get that sound because you need great jazz musicians.

Interviewer: You will record something tonight, do you know what it is, or right now?

Lana: I do, yeah I do. I have this idea for this record called "Music to Watch Boys To," so. Yeah, I'm just kind of thinking about that and what that would mean [laughs].

Interview for Galore Magazine:

Are you working on anything new?
Yeah, I just wrote two songs for Tim Burton and Harvey Weinstein’s film called Big Eyes and I’m working on a new record. I’m also always writing small pieces for independent films etc. Dan Heath and Rick Nowels are two of my dearest friends and producers and we are always up to something.

Interview for Grazia Magazine

What is your state of mind now?
I’m afraid this album will be forgotten. I’m always afraid good things will be forgotten, burried. Musically, I’m still looking for something different, with majestic choruses, beautiful orchestrations, a type of 50s vibe with a bit of soft grunge. Since march, I’ve been writing a lot of new songs, in a more conventional way -the verses, then the refrain, with a strong jazzy influence. I’m having a lot of fun with all of that. And next year, I’ll tour across the USA. I’ve been doing it only once before and I was really moved, especially in Detroit where I could feel the weight of its History. So, that’s why I decided I wanted to do it again, this time with my friend Courtney Love, for two months. My new album will come out after, maybe for late-august.
Did you writing style change for this next record?
My lyrics are very similar to me, who I truly am, but I must admit that I’m currently trying to do some new things. It’s a bit surrealist, full of colors. I feel much more inspired by people like Mark Ryden, Fellini or Picasso… Oh, I’m totally fond of this documentary: “Fellini : I’m a Born Liar”, which explains that the film-maker was in love with his hometown, and each of his movies is like one of its facets. I like his idea, the fact that truth should never impede to a beautiful lie… (she smiles)

You seem to like evoking the 50s imagery in your songs: the golden age of recording studios, ladies singing late at night with their big band…
Yeah, I love it. I love nightlife, the mood that comes from it. That’s why I wanted to meet Mark Ronson: I played him ten songs I just composed for this next album. Not so much that he added his usual signature, soul and funk, but rather it explores a sound close to the golden age of jazz. I wasn’t even born in the 50s but I feel like I was there. And when I still was living in New York, I was looking for this dream, maybe some other girls had the same, to live as a singer in a jazz club where I could sing some standards, but my own compositions too. I had a very ‘romantic’ vision of what a singer’s life should be. I daydreamed about tours in Europe, just like Chet Baker did, for example.

Billboard Magazine:
 
Lana Del Rey has nine songs written for her next album, titled Honeymoon -- four of which "the production is perfect; I'm looking for a few more songs to tie everything together" -- and thanks to her cinematic new song, she's also in the thick of awards season.
 
Does the Big Eyes song give us any indication of how the new album will sound?
It's very different from the last one and similar to the first two, Born to Die and Paradise. I finished my last one [Ultraviolence] in March and released it in June and I had a follow-up idea. It's growing into something I really like. I'm kind of enjoying sinking into this more noirish feel for this one. It's been good.
You're still writing everything?
I'm doing a cover of "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood." After doing a cover of [Jessie Mae Robinson's] "The Other Woman," I like summarizing the record with a jazz song. I'm having fun with my interpretation.
I assume you're relying on the Nina Simone versions?
"Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" and "The Other Woman" are my favorites. I'm so so much [a fan].

Mark Ronson for Triple J:
http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/media/s4174087.htm
 
Says that he rumors of his involvement with Honeymoon are an "internet thing," but says he has heard "beautiful tracks" and does not want to comment on anything before Lana does. However, he says that he has not worked on anything (yet?)

The Inquirer:
" I feel that the three records were so heavy and autobiographical. It’s been so cathartic. I like to use my previous work as a jump-off point to do something new. I’m ready to go into more of a ‘Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds’ surrealist place. That’s why I really do like what I heard about Fellini and all of the movies that were overdubbed and the actors were counting and not saying lines. I couldn’t believe that.

Inrockuptibles:
"Everybody has asked why I wanted to end Ultraviolence by a cover of The Other Woman by Nina Simone. Because she says everything, because I love jazz and may be because it could a door for what could be the next album."

Mark Ronson for Interview Magazine:
 
"Q-TIP: What are you doing in L.A.?
Mark RONSON: I'm going to do some recording with Lana Del Rey today and tomorrow. I found this cool old studio out here. 

Q-TIP: Are you producing? 

RONSON: I don't know. She has some songs and I said I had some demo ideas, and if they are any good, then maybe she'll like them and we'll go from there. "

Honeymoon lyrics found in tour merch:

idk if I'm being optimistic but I think is possible a new release still in 2015. She already has a top producer she seems satisfied, 10 news songs, how she wants the sound to be. 

I feel like I Can Fly is stronger than Big Eyes but they both are similar sonically. I'm happy for her!

Am I the only one who fucking loves I Can Fly? listening to it 24/7
not 7 yet. just saying

how can you not love i can fly???
it's so "lana del rey" especially the verses
(not directed at anyone, just musing)
 

Big Eyes disappointed me a bit... it suits the film tho
 
I Can Fly on the other hand... completely beautiful! After months and months of sadness and shades of cool this little gem brings color and joy back to this sad Lana fan 

the chorus for big eyes.. so underwhelming. I think I can Fly is superior.

holy shit yes
 
edit: like tbh the writing is nothing to write home about (lel) but the sounddddd my god i am so ready for music to watch boys to

I LOOOOVE IT! Like the lyrics were so freakin beautiful and we only got a little of them. It definitely reminds me of God and Monsters. It has an old Born to Die era Lana mixed with the Ultraviolence era. And yaass Hit and Run is definitely.
 
Is it me, was I wrong to have trusted you?
Did I see what I wanted, what wasn't true?
Was I wrong to go on like a little fool?
It's amazing what women in love will do

I think she just wrote them with the film in mind so they're less "Lana-esque." She's a smart writer...I don't think she had much help in making these more conventional.

Im getting Gods and Monsters tease with this!!!
This slayyyssss

I LOVE IT! The instrumental is really great and I like the lyrics as well. I don't wanna compare it, but it's a lot smoother than Ultraviolence.

I'm just ready for some new songs!!! Like I was so spoiled when this fandom use to leak songs at least once or twice a month and then it got quiet for while. I'm too excited.

Replying to your earlier comment about the zoomin in my miles, or whatever. Dont believe in everything the internet tells you. Zoom is no way shape or form a common way to say marijuana. It's really not. That's just something someone made up tbh. It could be what she meant but it's less than likely.(I'm going with its not.) It rarely means coke either, that's not an american term for it, at all.

I wont lie. I do love BTD more. But I love UV almost just as much. I'm just a fan of Lana's music in general. She could make any type of music and I'll listen to it.
 
The "fans" that leave because it sounds different and are not noticing her growth, weren't real from the jump and they're unneeded.

SAME FEELINGS TOWARDS LORDE!!!
 
I feel as if it is about her. Lorde said that about people who are in the top of the music industry. She said "Drake, Nicki Minaj, and Lana Del Rey's music arent relatable." Maybe not to her, but I'm pretty sure Drake raps/sings about love and how it feels to be heartbroken, Nicki raps about being hurt and how it feels to be a woman(or something to just dance to), and Lana tells us stories, and lots of the times she has songs that have deeper meanings(with songs that dont but they sound great.)
They also tell come up and how difficult things were stories not always bragging.
 
Honestly I think Lorde is overrated, and annoying.

That's what I'm sayin! People overthink wayy too much.

But why do I feel like this song is just going to be like Lucky Ones and never get sung live..... I wish she would, it would be excellent.

[Verse 1]
White lines, pretty baby, tattoos
Don't know what they mean
They're special, just for you
White palms, baking powder on the stove
Cooking up a dream, turning diamonds into snow
I feel you, pretty baby, feel me
Turn it up hot, loving you is free
I like it down, like it down way low
But you already know that
You already know

[Pre-Chorus]
Come on down to Florida
I got something for ya
We could see the kilos or the keys, baby, oh ya
Guns in the summertime
Chic-a-Cherry Cola lime
Prison doesn't nothing to me if you'll be by my s-

[Chorus]
Yayo, yayo, yayo
And all the dope fiends
Yayo, yayo, yayo

[Verse 2]
Zoom in my miles and gold hoops
You like your little baby like you like your drinks, cool
White lines, pretty daddy, go ski it
You snort it like a champ, like the winter were not in

[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]

[bridge]
We could get high Miami, ooh, dance the night away
People never die in Miami, that's what they all say
(You believe me, don't you baby?)

[Chorus]

Yayo, yayo, yayo
All the Floridians say
Yayo, yayo, yayo
All the Columbians say
Yayo, yayo, yayo
And all my girlfriends
Yayo, yayo, yayo

[Outro]
That's how I do it
Come on, pretty baby
White lines, pretty baby
Gold teeth, pretty baby
Dance the night away
 
I can feel it... this is my favorite song off the album.... It has some older Lana feels to it.

My thing is, I understand that Lana writes about drugs a lot.... but I personally dont think witch hazel is all that common of a way to say heroine. Never heard of that before.(I dont think that's what it meant) Like honestly. But I guess, its all perspective.

Nah, its dope fiends..... lol wow, Dope fiends are people who buy from the supplier.. It makes more sense then "things".
