Litty

So have any special edition/exclusive tracks been announced yet? Not sure where to buy this from on Friday

yeah she's def gained weight

lol not this again, come on

The more I listen to it, the more I think it would be greatly improved with a bassline. (Though not in some techno/EDM way.) The instrumental just feels incomplete, even if the strings are great.

Ok, friend. And you please go on getting your feelings crushed just because someone happens to dislike a song that you like. I promise, it will all be OK.

You're obviously not "for people having their own voice and opinion," because you can't tolerate people having a negative one. By your own logic, all the people who are screaming "OMG this is the best song ever, I am crying" are insulting to the people who don't like it. Why is it OK for people to have an extremely positive opinion but not an extremely negative opinion? Calling it "shit" very much IS "stating an opinion." It's stating an opinion that "this song is shit." Why is that difficult to understand? You say you're for people expressing themselves, but then go on to suggest that certain people "keep quiet." Just admit that you only can deal with positive opinions, so we can move on.

no we're just talking about the sample

By slow I'm referring to the vocal delivery, rather than the beats-per-minute of the actual instrumentals. In terms of feel, IMO there's a huge difference between the "speed" of something like Blue Jeans/Summertime Sadness and Old Money/Honeymoon, because of how she delivers the lyrics and because of the amounts of words per line. It has to do with how slowly she sings individual words, and how she draws out lines, etc. But I'll listen to LIB again.

Is Life is Beautiful that different? Slow, strings, weak drums, etc.

Grow the fuck up. Lana has hundreds of songs. Some of them ARE shit. He/she doesn't "deserve" anything just because they have a different opinion than you. And that doesn't make anyone "less of a fan."

It actually is pretty serious when you have people suggesting that others aren't "real fans" or that should stop listening to Lana just because they aren't creaming themselves over her latest song. People have been absolutely awful to Heartcore in this thread, it's gross.

It's OK, but a bit boring. It's not just that it's slow -- but that it's slow and there aren't a lot of lyrics, so the words feel dragged out to finish the lines. Also, her slow songs are better with more interesting drum/bass lines, IMO. I'd take pretty much every song on BTD over this. She sounds great vocally, but I hope the rest of the album is more interesting. If it's 14 songs of this, it will be a huge let-down.

Is it really that hard for you to understand that Lana has different sounds, and that some people prefer one style to another? Some people like her fast songs, some people like her slow songs, some people like her jazz songs, some people like her rock songs, some people like her hip hop songs. It's incredibly arrogant to say that someone shouldn't listen to her now just because they aren't hyperventilating about a particular song.

How dare you act like you're the Lana fan police?

what do you mean by "bop"?

It seems way slower than Video Games or Ultraviolence. It has more of a Oh Say vibe IMO.

i could definitely get behind that

lol

hopefully it will also kill off the annoying stalker fans who can't tolerate a single criticism of their idol

sorry that i don't blindly stan every song Lana does

this. shit is completely boring. the melodies/lyrics aren't nearly interesting enough for such a minimalist instrumental

sounds so boring tbh

I hope not personally -- those are two of my least favorite songs on the album

that's my problem with Honeymoon -- you don't need to hear the whole song to realize the chorus isn't epic and impactful like Ride/West Coast. Hopefully something else is the lead single with a little more life

That's not a fair comparison at all. It's not like she "shook things up" on this tour by performing different songs every night, she had a single setlist that she gradually whittled down until the last night, when she played two new songs.
