Does anyone know if store orders (UK especially) take money now or when the product's dispatched? I know HMV only took money from my account release week for the chemtrails vinyl but haven't ordered from her store in ages and forgotten what they do

The fact the pre-order dropped the same day I got the list of title choices for my final year uni project and I've put more thought into which vinyl variant to get

Same hoping she just said that it wasn't done so people don't go looking for it

Does anyone else kind of get 'mixtape' vibes from this project, rather than 'album' vibes so to speak. Obviously there's little promo/artwork effort and with the casual release it just feels different. Also I feel like the sequence of title track placement could be broken here - not sure if I see an album opening with Blue Banisters as it lacks an introduction. Obviously hard to say at this point but it seems like quite a mid album track to me for some reason.

Random request but does anyone have an image or whatever of the isolated number 1 angel logo? The 1 with the rose through it?

Edit: If it does release in local time (right now its 10:00pm) I'll let everyone know before I listen, I wont disappear I promiseI don't think it's been confirmed so would assume midnight local as she's never released an album global before, only singles / videos.

1 minute ago, Future Jazz said:I've thought about that too but her outlook on womanhood (more present in her earlier work, but still there in songs like 'love song' for example) and the number of times she refers to herself as her boyfriend's baby (and not just saying 'baby', rather saying 'I'm your baby', 'just like a baby, spin me round like a child', 'the way you'd play with me like a child', 'i was so confused as a little child' and stuff like that) makes me think she's referring to herself as a baby in that lyric, to holding him the way a baby would hold a grown-up. But I might be wrong, and it's open to interpretation anyway
That's an interesting take. I guess we'll have to see if the other tracks reveal anything about her current thought process re. power in relationships.

7 minutes ago, Future Jazz said:I really don't wanna get into a fight and I can see why you find it beautiful but I literally hate how 'who she's meant to me' is a man's 'baby' (defined in relationship to a man + in an inferior position, that of a baby) and how she essentialises womanhood (based on patriarchal stereotypes) like Lana you can do so much better
I see LMLYLAW as her talking about a more 'healthy' relationship. I interpret the lyrics as her wanting to hold him like a baby (as in he's her 'baby') and she lusts to look after him, as oppose to the reliance on men she portrays in her earlier work. I think the song in general might've been what caused her 'not not a feminist' comment - she wants a relationship that can feel old-style, in which they look after each other, rather than her being in a powerful position constantly.

Is it just me or does part of Enigma completely rip off Dua Lipa's Hallucinate?
I definitely hear similarities but both albums were originally meant to be released within a week of each other so I'm sure it's just a coincidence. Both would've been done way before each heard them.

is the taxi version she played just a pitched version of the leaked demo or the "final" she played live in lq last time but faster?
Think it's the 'final' as it had the 'taxi for one' post choruses

Has anyone started to receive their tickets in the post yet? How close do they usually arrive to the date?
Am yet to receive my Manchester ones. It says on SeeTickets that they'll come before the week before event.

So she's keeping the medley if she was sound checking Change, Black Beauty and Young and Beautiful?

Tbf Charli is a good album so the setlist is full of bops, it's just surprising she's performing I Love It instead of GNO. She obviously loves that song to death and this is the first time since forever that it isn't on the setlist.
