    My last post before I force myself to get back to work...

     

    of the songs I've heard, here's my colour associations:

    the grants - earthy browns, autumn leaves and deep ocean-blues that turn into a lighter sky-blue as the song progresses

    ocean blvd - ivory white and dirty, stained porcelain over dark blues, with a few tiny bits of neon blue when the piano dances over verse 2

    sweet - earthy browns, autumn leaves and deep forest greens, occasional yellow like her shirt in the Arcadia video

    a&w - faded sepia tones, almost black and white, and when the beat switches it goes dirty gun-metal, oil, smoke, petrol and electric blues

    fingertips - all very light baby-pink, baby-yellow, baby-blue and lots of smoky grey over everything.

     

    ok now do yours, bye

     

    The Grants - white, black, grey 

    Ocean Blvd - dark blue, silver, gold

    Sweet - light grey, white, pale yellow 

    A&W - black, grey

    Fingertips - grey, light blue + green

    Grandfather - blue + silver

    Are single choices still important nowadays? Genuine question because it's not like album deep cuts are forgotten like they were in 80s, even a non single can go viral or have tons of streams, idgi :um2:

     

    Singles aren't that relevant at all for Lana - over time she typically has random album tracks out-streaming her single choices. :lmao: It really doesn't matter at all for her.

    I’m hoping she’s releasing some deluxe tracks from the Ocean Blvd sessions.
     

    She could just make an easy, separate digital deluxe album out of them on the 24th and boost her streams that way if she wants to go harder for the #1. 
     

    Albums are limited to 80 minutes and Ocean Blvd is 78, so maybe she wants to give us her ~complete vision~ or something.

     

    I’m always excited by the prospect of “New music”…

    On a personal note, I'm like 99.99998% likely to be laid off from my job that I love next week, so I'm kind of in the pits emotionally. This new album from our queen and all of the surprises to come are the only thing really keeping my head up right now. So I'm just... really grateful for Lana, and thankful for the music + excitement, because it's really saving me from spiraling into a deep funk rn.

    People complaining about Lana releasing a song they’ve already heard…You mean, you chose to listen to the leaks and now that you’ve ruined the anticipation for yourselves, this is how you gonna cry?

     

    IJBOL 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

     

    Yeah, that's why I was bummed when songs started leaking bc we'd all be so excited right now if leakers hadn't spoiled it AND some didn't choose to burn themselves out on it. I mean, just stop listening to the song until Tuesday? lol. 

     

    Regardless, it's still a gorgeous opener to the album, and I have a feeling casual listeners will really enjoy it.

    not The Grants slander :air:

    The Grants doesn't even directly cover her family's issues, she doesn't mention anyone in her family (in Fingertips, for example, she mentions names)... The song is very cute and anyone could relate.

     

     

     

    Yeah... it actually seems like the first verse is addressing Sean (assuming due to proximity to title track)... the chorus is general - death/memories,  the second verse addressing tackling her mental health for the sake of her family/future, and then her family by the end of the song.

    I don't recall any songs by Lana that sound like it, because it has a gospel choir, it sounds very 90s diva if you ask me. So maybe this comparison I'm making is a stretch, but the instrumental alone could be from a Honeymoon outtake - piano, organ, strings and synths

     

     

    You're spot on in that The Grants might be her most '90s pop diva sounding ballad so far in a way. She'd probably hate us for saying that, but... I actually love it, haha.

    The Grants is an interesting choice of a single. I might prefer it as an introductory album track because it exudes a similar feeling/effect to the title track.

     

    That said, it is one of her most “heavenly” tracks. It’s veering on a straight gospel song with how spiritual it is, like I’ve been saying, and I think it could appeal to the GP as much as it appeals to us. It’s just an interesting pivot after A&W, when there’s more to explore sonically on the album outside of that opening 4 track suite.

     

    Then again, we all know Lana, and she tends to push/focus on the first ~4 songs on her tracklists, so this is not a surprise!
