BOZ, Ben, etc: Lana’s still working on the album, nothing’s coming on Sunday…

everyone on lanaboards: surprise release on Sunday!

I think we'll get news around the date 

It would be pretty iconic if on Saturday she announced the album again with a new title and another fake date 

You got a thunderbird

My daddy had one too

Let’s rewrite history

I’ll do this dance with you 

It’s about time for Lana to cover ‘How Could You Believe Me When I Said I Loved You When You Know I’ve Been a Liar All My Life’ (from the 1951 film Royal Wedding). The title even sounds like a Lana song... 
 

Honestly though the news that there’s no Jack or Rick and only the one Mike song actually makes me pretty excited because that means there’s a good chance either Gabe or Zach produced most of the album. Everything Lana does with Zach is always pure gold and I feel like I’ve been waiting forever for a Zach-produced Lana album. And so far Gabe has shown a lot of promise; the ambiance of BB & TB is so beautiful. I feel like Lana has a clear vision in mind. I’m getting gritty country-blues-jazz Americana vibes. 

Personally, I don’t really care when she gives us fake dates. If there’s no pre-order, I don’t get hung up on release dates. It’s fun to pretend something’s coming, but I won’t be bothered that something doesn’t come when there’s no real indication of it. I’m not gonna work myself up and convince myself it’s a surprise drop then get upset when that doesn’t happen. I’m excited for the album, fake dates just don’t really affect me or my life. 

Lana right now, unbothered:

She was swimming with Nikki Lane

I srsly love this song so much I can’t even describe it

Bob Dylan was the king of announcing projects that would never get released and Joni Mitchell was the queen of announcing an album then delaying it a hundred times. And both of them still released albums almost every year. Lana’s just carrying on that legacy. She’s unreliable, sure, but she still never leaves us without new music for very long and her work is always top quality. 

Someone should edit the White Dress music video with some clips from the 1941 film Moon Over Miami. It would fit so well. The film is about sister waitresses going on a trip to Miami to find rich husbands (as one does). Visually, it matches the song almost perfectly.

Last August didn’t BOZ say he couldn’t see any reason why COTCC wouldn’t come on Sept 5th? Maybe it was someone else, but I’m pretty sure someone said that, idk. But then it didn’t come anyway.  So just because this album seems ready for July 4th, it doesn’t necessarily mean Lana will release it then.  But I’m all here for being delusional and imagining it will be a surprise drop. 

While releasing the album on July 4th is already so fitting since Americana is a big part of Lana’s art, I think it’d be really touching if she dedicated the album to the memory of Carole Landis and all the other women that Hollywood chewed up and spit out. 

Since Lana’s going for revenge (such a broad concept), I’d live for the type of energy in the song “Live Hard, Work Hard, Love Hard” from the film My Blue Heaven, specifically Betty Grable’s part. Mitzi Gaynor’s character would be like a stand-in for all the new young singers who think they can just waltz in and replace Lana

no ones asking that tho? not a single person on here asked her to hop on tiktok trends or get a #1 on the charts. asking her to at least talk about her music and give a sense that she still cares about her work, just doing the bare minimum isn’t asking her to jump on trends. these types of comments are giving "you want her to be pop and do btd again" when people are just asking for a bit more production value or professionalism. when i say the comprehension issues on here are rampant 

The point was to focus on something you enjoy for once

I never meant that she should hop on new trends. I said that an artist nowadays to become popular among GP has to do that.

 

I'm perfectly fine with Lana being the way she is and I love her music more than ever. My replies were just pointing out stuff to another user.

 

My post wasn’t directed at you, I actually agreed with all your posts!  We’re def on the same page here.  Mine is directed at everyone who repeatedly threatens to “unstan” yet are still constantly here whining about literally everything. 

Some of y’all should really just “unstan” already and get it over with

i wouldn’t ask, I’d just say something like “can’t wait for next week!!!!” And if she says “what’s happening next week?” Well, there’s our answer. 

With our luck, she’d probably just think you were excited for Independence Day and would say something like “me too!”

not cocc barely scratching 500k streams a day….the only song with over 100k streams is the title track the rest is around 30k per day…. BEYOND tragic like wow this makes godlymoon seem like an otherworldly commercial success. i’m sorry but those streams are unacceptable for a 3 month old album that had at least a bit of promo compared to this one… i’m scared the sales/streams will be ten times worse if she goes the "lemme stay mute" route 

People literally bought the album  streams only matter for fads

I was watching Road to Singapore earlier and Bob Hope wears a black sweater and white pants throughout the entire film and I swear he looked exactly like the guy on the NFR cover, it was kinda freaky. I don’t know if it was intentional, but Dorothy Lamour does wear her hair in a similar style to the one Lana has on the NFR cover, which makes me think it could be. 

Some of y’all will never be happy no matter what…  Must be exhausting… 

Anyway, I think the singles are very promising and I look forward to seeing what Lana has in store for us. 

It’s a little disappointing that Summertime was released so long ago now because it clearly won’t be on this album but I feel like it would fit so well with the 3 singles (&Thunder) 

Imagine the meltdowns if Thunder isn’t on the album after we’ve become convinced it will be

Honestly, the only song I'm really hoping is on the album is Dealer, although I do think that it's unlikely 

I hope the album is a little longer than that, like at least two songs
