  1. Btd (the song) is one of her best choruses. If we got more like that that would be awesome. Maybe also complex choruses like SOC, Brooklyn Baby, West Coast, Cruel World, ITH and Flipside. Like really simple choruses can be effective every now and then, but if she ever released an album with predominantly basic choruses I'd be really annoyed because we all know when she tries to she can write outstanding music with beautiful elaborate choruses. Just look at Paradise, UV and AKA.
  2. I feel sorry for anyone who dislikes MM, like really who raised you? Kill Kill- 15(+) Queen of the gas station- 4(-) Oh Say Can You See- 6 For K Par 2- 6 Mermaid Motel- 8 Put Me In A Movie- 12 Yayo- 14

    Umm... I'm trying to get into bjork but I'm not really sure where to look. I really like "Venus as A Boy" but when I tried listening to debut the first song just put me off completely. If I like Venus As A Boy is the rest of that album worth buying? If not could you name any other records by her that would fit more what I'm looking for?
  5. She's already said that 4 or so songs are "perfect" and she has at least ten in the works. Yeah I'm not really sure Ronson's gonna happen, but I mean there's usually an agonising period of silence when Lana's just announced a new project. I'm fairly confident we'll have something by the end of the year.

  8. Producers: Can't tell if Ronson is still happening, but I'd really love that. I know she's friends with Kanye West, am I the only one that thinks that would be great? Maybe not for this particular project but something in the future. I hadn't even thought of David Lynch but just 1000x yes. Genre: Straight up 20's blues/jazz would totally work for me. Part of me just wants Lana to get darker and darker with each record until her very last record causes a rise in suicide rates across the globe Orchestral grunge/ surf noir maybe? Lyrical content: I love all the interconnecting characters in Lana's music. Lana could just focus a whole record around a few characters and have each song as a piece to the story of the whole record, maybe sing all songs in third person, kind of like she's crooning a melodic folk tale. Artwork: I have the coolest idea. Maybe Lana could make the whole album a visual album a la Beyoncé then have a looping gif for the front cover. Perhaps Lana spinning alone on a beach at midnight in a perfect loop? Yeah, pretty far fetched but it would be too iconic for words.
  9. Oh Idk perhaps Honeymoon? Big Eyes? Riverside? Wait For Life? I mean I'm disappointed too but you can't say she's lying on her ass... Where have you been?
  10. Well only a month after announcing it she said she was finished and gave a few details and descriptions on her twitter. February came and and she gave a (false) release date then I think late March/early April she announced West Coast, that came out on the 13th (but here in the UK we didn't get the song on itunes till May 18th) then we got 3 or 4 more singles all around May, she confirmed a June release on a Radio interview, we got snippets early June then on the 13th it was out. Then of course we got that brilliant Shades Of Cool video, the not so great UV video and let's not even discuss the West Coast mess.... I only watched it once... once was enough All in all it was a pretty great era, all things considered
  11. 1. I did say that I like BTD 2. Of course I meant panned critically... where have you been? 3. Trust me, Lana cares A LOT more about what professional critics have to say than some petulant online bi polar hipster mariah stan with the manners and online etiquette of a spam bot (like really did Mariah Carey create you for the purpose of promoting her music? You're like an annoying little pop-up add that won't piss off) 4. Lana owes you NOTHING. You cannot order a musician to sit in their personal little corner and never try to explore other opportunities. I think you need a break from the internet for awhile.
  12. Video Games put Lana on the map. Video Games is a four minute love ballad with orchestral production and no drums or any kind of beat. Not only did it put her on the map, she was catapulted into stardom and acclaim in less than a few weeks after it's release. BTD, an album full of hip hop beats (besides VG) was panned almost universally across America and over the course of it's release she became one of the most controversial and widely criticised singers of the year. (I'm not saying I don't like BTD, it's great, but yeah based on her experiences in that kind of music, and the fact she genuinely stated she was dissatisfied with it, I'm fairly sure we're not hearing anymore loon for a loooong while) Also, need I remind you that her exact description of Honeymoon was "Similar to btd AND Paradise"? The only similarity between Btd and Paradise was the orchestral production. No overly loud beats or samples on Ride, Cola, Blue Velvet, Yayo. Uv was Lana's way of proving her own artistic merit by releasing an album with little commercial appeal and promo. Maybe we'll get a few hits this era, maybe Beyoncé and Jay-Z are getting separated. It's of little concern to me if the music's still good. If you want beats, go listen to A$AP Rocky, if you want R&B, go listen to Malignant Cuntwart (the elusive STD) let Lana write whatever she feels inspired to write, she's not the only outlet of music you know?

  14. Wasn't Lou Reed meant to feature on Brooklyn Baby? I just feel like Lana's more specific about collaborating with artists (this is her show) but if she finds the right moment and the right artist then I'm sure she'd go for it.
  15. Is Courtney Love recording a new album, or promoting anything at the moment? I'm starting to wonder whether maybe she'll appear somewhere on Honeymoon. Am I reaching? She's just one of many people I would love to see Lana collaborate with. Others are Azealia Banks, Kanye West, Beyoncé (don't judge you know you're praying for it too) & maybe someone like Frank Ocean.

    I really don't know ... Kill Kill Vs Trash Magic
  19. Lana and Giorgo would've been great. Like he said, there's still a chance. But right now I'm more worried about the Mark Ronson collab. Like I was REALLY hyped but now I have no fucking clue what's going on. I know whatever we get will be good but I need some solid info to keep me stable while we wait
