Jizzy Grant

This has to be my favorite of the releases so far. I've always enjoyed these kind of jazz-influenced/alt tracks more than her catcher stuff. She really has a knack for creating these sultry/dreamy atmospheres with some of her slower songs. Honeymoon had only a couple of listens from me and I like the High By the Beach music video more than the song itself.
 
I've always been a very melancholic kind of person and I think this is what she is going for on the new album. The mood seems to be more of the focus here rather than lyrics and structure, something that I feel was not concentrated on her other albums. It's what I like to call "solitary music". Music that just fits the contentment of being alone. Music that you want to play when you're at the beach or laying under a tree or riding on the bus through the city. Sometimes it's just nice to take a walk or go somewhere to be alone and....think about things. Maybe that's what she going for. Or maybe not. It works for me that way, at least.
 
Anyway. I think it's pretty clear that she's not reverting back to her Born to Die sound. I feel like there was so much influence from the label during that time than Lana herself. I mean that whole marketing was so overblown and I think she kind of got tired of that, hence her more stripped back appeal now in both image and music. Even the album itself with it's pop appeal was largely because of the label. Paradise showed hints of that departure. Both Ultraviolence and the songs of Honeymoon show that she has more creative leeway than before. She's handling the promotion herself - which she doesn't seem to mind. I think there's less distraction from people who were trying to polish her and she's more comfortable doing what she is doing. And I think regardless of the polarizing reaction to her recent material, she'll still continue doing what SHE wants to do. If she can get through the slew of criticism from journalists than she can get through the criticisms from her fans just fine.

I seriously question whoever says this is bland or even bad... production is perfect, melody is gorgeous, the lyrics could be better but I've accepted songwriting isn't really her thing. The ground control part is breathtaking. I guess she said it was jazzy because of the trumpets and I couldn't agree more. Honestly give me two hundred albums with songs like this
 
Upbeat Lana never existed, deal with it xoxo

Am I the only one thinking it's not that bad? I don't understand y'all.

Everyone's complaining cause they don't see her bra

It sounds like something from her past unreleased hip-pop material with a slight touch of the Weeknd influence.
  It's going to take a couple of listens to completely settle on it. I'm not sure what to make of it right now, but I don't hate it. The production is definitely unexpected, but the direction she's going with her lyrics is a nice change.

They are the most pretentious pair lol

I bet the book is going to be full of pretentious, boring, tumblr-talk and the pics don't really look interesting. They are from the same boring photoshoot that was used in his article. I also don#t get why he wants to release it next year.

What really sticks out to me is the strings. They have this kind of Lee Hazelwood vibe about them. The song is very simple, feathery and light. She sounds younger, too. At this point in her career, I don't expect anything new or experimental from her. She's in a very comfortable place. As much as I would love for her to take a risk with it, I know that the chances of it happening are slim. One thing I've always liked about her, especially her voice in this song, was how unintentional creepy she is. The video snippets reminded me of those homemade videos of women who go missing (also pretty interesting when you think about the Honeymoon theme) which kind of gives off the whole trouble in paradise kind of feel. My favorite moment in the song is when she croons out "cruise" and the background vocals come swooning in, and the whole "dreaming away your life" in the end.

Sleepy, but beautiful. (Though that is perhaps her laziest DIY style video.) 
 
The tone and timbre of her voice have always been the biggest draw for me. I could probably listen to an entire album of Lana Mmmm-ing and scatting.

I want her to do the opposite of whatever the gays want her to do tbh
