    I still not understand what is lazy about using outakkes. It's not like the songs were handed to her, she actually wrote and recorded them, just not this year.

    She has like +200 unreleased songs and she's giving us the second album this year (and probably a third one soon with the covers).

    Lana is FAR from lazy. She's also been working nonstop since BTD dropped. Cmon the longest we ever had to wait between albums was 2 years :wtf3:

    I record music myself, if people knew how long it takes to write record produce a single throwaway song, she’s unbelievably prolific!

    Eh… I don’t buy that, with all due respect. She screamed for the things she couldn’t want for him at a Black Lives Matter protest?

    That’s fair! Bur honestly I do think so - she’s at a civil rights march crying for freedom from oppression. A freedom that she couldn’t wish for her father, because as per WW’s lyrics, he is trapped in a relationship with a narcissist “his wife would rage at me”. The three singles were very intentionally released alongside one another, so I couldn’t help but look for connections between the lyrics though so I might be wrong!

    i'm pretty sure it is, the first line referencing blm was "there we were screaming black lives matter", so it would make sense that she's saying "i screamed for (black lives/black lives matter)" i think she was saying that despite what her partner at the time thought of her going to these protests, she's going to scream & protest anyways, and do what she thinks is right


    I dunno, I assumed the “them” she screams for are “all the things [plural ]I couldn’t want for him”, as “I screamed for them” comes right after. The things she couldn’t want for him (her father) are the things she screams for.

    UV’s highs are incredible and it used to be my favourite Lana album, but now it’s among my least: CW is far too long; the title track is a beautiful melody overwhelmed by an overcrowded production and inconsistent lyrics; BB is lyrically embarrassing, as with FMWUTTT and PWIC - overall the lyrics on this album are her weakest, which is a pity because I want to love this album, it’s sonically among her best.

    As a fan from day one, COCC is possibly my favourite Lana album - dark, neurotic, and eccentric. My favourite moment in the record is probably the second verse of Wild At Heart, where she breaks the melody into a monorhythm with one of her darkest lyrics ever, talking about the possibility of undoing all her sobriety, and thus all of the work she has ever been able to make since committing to it - in essence, a world without Lana Del Rey, which is a theme she has been hinting at since Swan Song on each of her albums, that reflex of self-destruction. Ugh, COCC is great.

    I never know what to expect with her song titles. I wouldn't be surprised if it was more of a transitory track between the bluesy, theatrical aspects of the first part and into the other

     

    I thought Venice Bitch was going to be the dumbest song i've ever heard, but it turned into a 9 minute long masterpiece 


    inb4 Black Bathing Suit is as repetitive, morose and plodding as Guns & Roses ?

     Have they been included in spotify as well?

     

    Also...do physicals ship on 22 or 29th?

     

    And someone also mentioned the Arcadia MV audio is different from streaming? Really?


    Someone with Spotify said they sound the same on there, can’t confirm myself. Don’t know about shipping. The video includes the following track “Interlude - the Trio” at the end, I originally mistook it for being only in the video - we won’t have it on streaming till release. ??

    For those who don’t mind being spoiled descriptively but want to wait till release:


     

    Spoiler

     

    It’s a duet with Alex Turner (?), sounds like it should have been on Ultraviolence - it sounds like what she described Pretty When You Cry as in terms of emotion, sounds like it was done in one (very emotional) take, but raw in a good way, a blistering attack on her former lover. It’s also quite strange, she screams but there are also playful lines. Genuinely hard to describe in terms of tone, but very dirge-y yet not monotonous, again, Ultraviolence teas. The verses are catchier than the chorus, but the chorus is quite obviously meant to be this atonal explosion.
