Hope this thread is never locked it gives me so much life reading y'all's messy responses

So did Lana actually graduate from college?

How can people think they know how a song is going to sound before actually hearing it and can decide their favorite tracks already?? Like I was expecting some fucking conga flute whatever beach party with Music To Watch Boys To (like Whenever Wherever By Shakira ) and obviously that didn't happen. At this point I don't know what to expect and I like it like that.

Off-topic but I love the ending of Terrrence Loves You. It sounds so calm and bittersweet with her humming. I feel like I'm relaxing into a peaceful death.

Lana's How To Be A Heartbreaker video is coming

I'm actually not worried anymore about the album being mostly slow songs, I've managed to convince myself that Honeymoon is actually a bop so I'm fully ready for this album

There's a saxophone in Art Deco and Freak? I'm ready to be slayed by that saxophone breakdown

Wow in haunting for some reason I thought it was "I'm banging on the keyboard" in the chorus as opposed to the I'm begging to keep on.

Is This Happiness! With one of her best lines

"One gun on the table, headshot, if you're able" like goodness I cry a million tears.

Angels Forever Forever Angels is overall a beautiful song. Some of my favorite lyrics from it have to be

Does the ocean inspire, easy rider?

Do the stars and the wind take you higher?

You are California proud

You are angels of the night.

Rock and Roll guardians now

The last keepers of the light

And the rest of it actually I just love all the lyrics tbh

Ok but........yikes @ her using the t-slur on twitter yesterday and then quickly deleting it 

I'm sure I'm going to off as stupid but t-slur? What is that?

A bit off topic but as for the Zella, Ryn, and Halsey debuts I'd say quality wise it's Zella>Halsey>Ryn

How is Ultraviolence a concept album? I don't see it.

Genuinely wondering but what would you guys consider to be good titles for song? I know most people here give Lana shit about the titles of her songs so I was wondering what people considered to be good titles? Doesn't have to be a Lana song. What makes a title good, what makes a title bad?

I think Honeymoon will be reviewed quite well, around UV's score or slightly below, even if the album doesn't flow too well or isn't that good etc I think it won't be like, hated. I think Pitchfork will give her a 6.9 or 7.1

What if Lana leaks the album herself via the low quality Honeymoon hotline?

I'm kidding but seriously when she said something about checking back each week for new stuff on the hotline I guess I just assumed she was going to drop a different promo single each week through the hotline and then it would also release on iTunes too that week.

So should I preorder the Target exclusive? Do you all think it's worth it? I haven't listened to the album yet.

Okay but how is Yayo being incorporated into Honeymoon??? I'm thinking a Yayo remix on the deluxe with her chanting "dark blue, dark blue" over a dying beat in the background.

So how does everyone think this will sell in the first week? In the U.S. I don't think it will be as big as Ultraviolence first week sales were. I think it will be around 90-115k and then idk about SPS

This album better not leak a month before it's released like no thanks

Dark Paradise is actually amazing, I think of it as a sister to Summertime Sadness.

Don't care for Hollywood.

The Honeymoon cover reminds me of a tacky Fourth of July.

Terrence Loves You is extremely underwhelming and I find Honeymoon to actually be more interesting.

Why are people speculating that Swan Song is her saying she is quitting music? I mean, she put Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood after it, which in a way contradicts a Swan Song. Now if their placement was switched I think the message would be switched also.

According to hits daily double she should 29,230 copies in the first week, and over 35,00 SPS! Good for her, I was expecting like 22-25k

So has anyone heard the whole album? Should I preorder it? I had it preordered at one point but cancelled because I was trying to save money

I like the lyrics a lot and when I read them they're very sad. But when I'm listening to the song I don't feel much of anything though

On hits daily double it says that she has around 40k preorders so far, so I think the album will do well.
