    The contrast (btw song HM and HBTB) was probably intentional on her part, so she wants you to believe there's a coherence between them. I'll suggest that both songs reflect adopting aesthetics from prior song periods. One is a torch/noir song a la Ella Fitzgerald or a sad Frank Sinatra (perhaps); the other has been described as Andrew Sisters meets Ludacris. http://flavorwire.com/532216/lana-del-rey-shares-andrews-sisters-meets-ludacris-track-high-by-the-beach So they cohere, at least conceptually, on that basis. Sonic-ally, I don't think they're that bad together as you got songs like Art Deco and Freak in the mix too. Historically, she's had pretty diverse songs on the same album while still cohering decently (Pawn Shop Blues and Smarty, being my favorite example).

    why did she change the album name? do you know how amazing the album cover would look of it said Best American Record ...I mean LFL is a bad title and it looks ugly too

    Never Let Me Go and Damn You. Mostly NLMG, I've cried multiple times to that song. The pleading, begging Lana really gets me on both

    Omg guys I just realized what that "solve et coagula" bio reminds me of... it's of the lyric in Music To Watch Boys To: "no holds barred, I've been sent to destroy".
     
    Queen of foreshadowing her next album before it's even out

    Its such nonsense. Honestly i think people like to make up genres and album meanings that don't exist.

    Alright there's officially no denying that I slay at playlists and these should be canon for Lana Del Rey organization. Sorry!
     

    ^I accepted that Wayamaya/Waimea is more of an early LDR session song than something belonging to this 2009 group (thanks to the Mertens tea), but Maha Maha-->Hawaiian Tropic still maintains that surf noir ending~




    ^(I really want Be My Daddy to go before Jealous Girl but who knows if that'll ever happen)
     
    Decided to organize laptop demos by era instead of acoustic vs. not. The grouping makes more sense now imo


     

    ^Miss America=The Man I Love. I wanted a more official title, and since that's an alt title for TM...you get it



    ^This is so poised to add songs to but...

     
    WIP on b-sides covers as usual
     
    Lmk if you have any more slayful sequencing with these new songs, I'm all ears

    Reach but it sounds like it's done imo. That's not surprising, except that she usually reveals the title in the midst of working on the record. This holding out! I just wonder if she has a release date behind the scenes or is it still like when Ultraviolence was "coming in May"

    Do y'all think Taxi has a good chance to be on the album ? cause it's such a bop but I don't think it has that next level pop sound she's been describing, like she said somewhere the album is futuristic pop, next level, and that she wants it to be the album of 2017. With that said the only song I think so far that fits that is No Angel....thoughts?
