Poor Stacy

The Grants definitely

I’m wondering if the interlude following Candy Necklace is sort of a continuation of the song itself.

If it leaks after tomorrow, I'll be happy. Single digit days before release is about as good as Lana can do. I was really upset when we all thought it was going to leak around a month in advance.

My company layoffs are tomorrow, but we get The Grants + maybe the big surprise(?). Painfully bittersweet, but at least I have Lana to help get me power through it. Now can we just get the next day or two over with? I am desperateeeeee!

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”…

?

This is soooo gorgeous.

I'm just a f*g who loves shock value tbh

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.

I'm excited for Jon Batiste interlude but not Judah ... Someone said parts of A&W were recorded by Lana in her car ...? Is this true?

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.

someone said the surprise is

That'd mean Grandfather would be the next single since A&W's already been released, and those were his top 2... Idk... just brainstorming... ...... but I'm kinda over it til next week.

Same. I'm officially confused. It's whatevs...

yessss, @111 - what's the new single from the albummmmmm luv

She's still playing it too safe for me. There are a few exciting tracks on here but most of it is just... meh.

I actually hope it doesn't leak tomorrow, that'd be so funny. This place will be lit... I say we all just remain perched for the ~surprise~ on Tuesday!
