Ooooh, Chuck has a new story with a green screen ... please let it be for some sisterly project.

We all realise that she's teasing a song for a documentary from a film festival that finished on May 5. Don't we? I just ... I don't know. I feel like releasing it during the film festival would've been better for promoting both the doco and song? Crazy idea, I know.

This was uh ... quite an escalation.

She's such a troll, honestly. A goddamn troll.

Right so not only could she not be bothered telling Sublime when her cover of their song is being released, but she couldn't be bothered doing this, either.

"I’m not sure if it’s out yet." Wait, so ... she covers their song ... and she doesn't even tell them when it's coming out? I-

I just noticed that the only snippets left up on YouTube are the ones that are the same as the IG snippet ... seems all the extended versions I clicked on are "unavailable". IDK exactly when that happened but I'd say the drop is definitely within the next few days, kiddos.

I mean ... this article is only seven years old. Maybe one of us can get invited to dinner and get the answers we need. https://www.nme.com/news/music/lana-del-rey-190-1270858 I'll have to paddle across the Pacific Ocean to attend as I can't afford to fly to LA, but don't let that stop you inviting me, Elizabeth.

Why would you think such a thing?!

To me, they're like verbal exclamations so I like that they're there. I love that it took her 3 years to complete, though. One year to write the title, and two years to write the lyrics. Do you reaaaaaaally want to ask me that question .... haha

"Well, I thought so, too. I thought my tastes and likes were pretty normal, but then I met everyone and I was like, “These people don’t actually care about music and art. They want to be cool.” I never met anyone who cared about music as deeply as me and my boyfriend, or who really cared about poetry—who really lived it and breathed it. I haven’t met anyone so far. I just can’t affiliate with those people." I'm just going to bold these statements and leave this here.

Stan Twitter has discovered that the sunglasses in actor guy's story are, in fact, her Gucci ones. I'm just dying reading all the in-depth analyses/comparisons of the tortoiseshell pattern. I bet neither of them thought people would figure it out. LMAO.

I think she'll drop it a few days before. Wednesday at the earliest.

She has to understand that we don't understand why she isn't saying anything, so naturally people are going to speculate and get frustrated. I still think she could just tell us that she'll give us more information when she's ready ... but maybe she really is feeling resentful towards the fanbase and that's why she isn't. I don't know. Maybe the Miss Daytona "the album is finished but who knows when it'll be out" tweet was less "I don't know because of external factors" and more "I don't know when I want to release it because I feel really insecure about my music rn".

Yeah people dragged her for the "black narcissist" part. They said it was Kanye, or Azealia ... fuck knows what else they said, I don't remember. Maybe someone else has screenshots?

Love this post! Some really interesting points. My thoughts ... (complete speculation, of course) They are two very different women, certainly, but I think Hunger is to Florence what Hope is to sis. Hunger recently turned one, and Florence posted about how nervous she was to release it because it was so personal, and that she was so grateful for the reception to it. Hope was released before I joined this community, but going by the comments here, and by those I've seen on social media, I feel like the reception to it was mixed. Seeing as it's her most personal song (and took 3 years to complete) maybe that reception hurt her more than we realised. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but she posted that Instagram comment replying to the accusations about racial connotations in the song, and seemed to shut herself off from NFR, and to some extent, fans, right after that. When I translated that article earlier and read that it took her 3 years to complete, straight away my mind went to that poem: "I love you but you don't understand me." It could be about absolutely anything or anyone, and was likely written before Hope was released, but I immediately thought of it. Maybe she felt really misunderstood and hurt, pouring her heart and soul into that song for three fucking years and everyone was all, "Oh my God that selfie is horrible", "Wow "Black narcissist"?!", and "Fuck me, an iPad reference!" I'm not saying that it's wrong to be critical of those points (and others) ... not at all. I'm just saying ... maybe she really didn't get the reaction she wanted and it upset her more than we realised and/or made her doubt herself and the album - which she has said is very personal. And maybe that's why she's taking a break just to regather herself or whatever. I know this post sounds really emotional 'n' shit but she has said herself that she is an emotional, sensitive person.

Someone on Reddit uploaded some more excerpts from Moby's book: https://imgur.com/Z6j0wbl https://imgur.com/ujdYbet I am still having trouble getting my head around the fact that they dated.

I just Google translated it ... it's mostly about perfume. Again. I think she says Hope took 3 years to complete (?!) and it's her most personal song. "Shades of Cool" and "Cruel World" are the songs which represent her best, apparently ... I could be totally wrong because it's just Google Translate, though. They did not ask about NFR.

I mean ... if he agreed to give me NFR, then I probably would ...

I mean, do we even expect her to turn up? There are quite a few steps involved literally and figuratively, and I have my doubts.

Because he always works with attractive, young, female singer/songwriters with moody lyrical tendencies. Questions? https://www.popdust.com/cry-at-parties-and-other-ways-to-become-one-of-jack-antonoffs-female-collaborators-2630188420.html

Oh, you're clearly new. We've been here before. Lycra pants would allow one's tummy to expand comfortably; just sayin' ... Sometimes it feels like a sensory overload to me. I often play the first half and then skip on to something else. I have the attention span of a goldfish, though.

Who's Joe? I can't keep up with all her men; mb.

Anyway so I was looking through some old threads last night and I found that one where she took a pic with the Garage fan last October, and she told them she was visiting her boyfriend who was coaching in Boston. I reckon she was visiting her boyfriend Jack in NYC who also happened to have a gig a few days later in Philadelphia. Oh oh, and some tabloid last year reported that Jack was seeing a musician and they later redacted the "musician" detail but another tabloid found it in Google cache. Everyone assumed it was Lorde but maybe it wasn't ... They sooo had a thing

They soooo did ... I'm gonna go rant about it on the Random thread though because I promised Elle I'd behave on this one.
