I say this thread can burn to the ground this pre-release has been a nightmare for everyone Very excited for the album to be officially released everywhere. I still fully stand by it being my favorite Lana album to date

1 minute ago, Mer said:I literally have not seen a single person hating on Fingertips at all lol. It's just not going to be everyone's favorite, and that's all good too. In fact, even the people who don't particularly love Fingertips are praising its lyrics and the importance of it lol.
I wasn't being serious Ofc I know that everyone has different opinions, I'm just kidding around lol. I never said it needs to be everyone's favorite I don't think it needs to be. It's not even my favorite on the album

I said something very cringey and embarrassing to a friend once while How To Disappear was on and to this day I still can't listen to it without remembering that

SpoilerIt all depends on taste of course, but I think it's an incredible song. It's very dark and haunting. It's a piano based track, but it's a very rich sort of piano that I think works as a beautiful centerpiece on the track. I think you like Riverside or Is This Happiness, you'll like Candy Necklace

And, frankly, I don't think she's "put her heart and soul into them." More like came up with them on the spot and sang into a voice note, which is exactly what they sound like.
Ok let's see what you've written
-
SpoilerHonestly I think a lot of people simply can't handle Fingertips because it's not sanitized and packaged, it's completely raw and pulls no punches with listeners. And there's a lot of people I feel won't even give it a chance because of that (or the fact that she talks about her family which to certain Lana fans is like murdering somebody). It's a powerful song that needs to exist in Lana's discography imo
-
SpoilerA&W was such a perfect single choice after hearing the album as a whole. The first half feels very representative of the first half of the album with songs like Fingertips, Candy Necklace, and Kintsugi, whereas the second half feels more aligned with Fishtail, Peppers, and Taco Truck.
-
SpoilerCandy Necklace is hauntingly beautiful. The piano is so stark and powerful, it's just as much of a vocalist on the track as Lana is. It reminds me a lot of classical works as well. The lyrics are also beautiful, and that part where Jon Batiste echoes Lana at the end ties it all together. I'm just stunned. It's very reminiscent of Riverside for sure
-
SpoilerI keep revisiting those last three tracks in particular. There's such a strong synchronicity to them
-
Excluding Candy Necklace since we haven't heard it yet, here's my current track ranking
SpoilerGrandfather
Let The Light In
Fingertips
Taco Truck x VB
FishtailA&W
Kintsugi
Peppers
Ocean Boulevard
The Grants
Margaret
Paris, Texas
Sweet
Jon Batise Interlude
Judah Smith Interlude

SpoilerWhen Lana dropped Venice Bitch 4 and a half years ago I sure didn't think we'd get an album that ends with a remixed version of it including adlibs like "drop acid" "never die" but I love it
-
SpoilerI don't know why, but Grandfather makes me think of Coraline. The chord progressions are so beautiful though, and the vocal performance is stellar
-
I'm currently trying to decide whether I should go or not. It's my spring break and the closest one to me is only an hour away, but I'm honestly not sure about it
-
SpoilerI'm so so late, but I just wanted to express how this album exemplifies one of my favorite things about Lana, which is her ability to balance fun and complexity with one another. I don't want to jump the gun and say this is my favorite Lana album too early, but I'm leaning towards it being that way for sure
-
I can't say I'm really pro-YTH release, but it would get a lot of streams just based on how many times it's gone viral on TikTok alone
However, and this was probably already said but I don't feel like looking through the whole thread, a copyright claim doesn't mean a song is going to get released. There are a lot of unreleased songs that that's been happening with for years at this point
-
SpoilerI literally only listened to like 30 seconds at most of each song because what's the point with the tags Anyways, Margaret sounds a lot like The 1975's new album to me, which makes sense because Jack worked on that album. It's honestly really cool to see him take that direction with Lana because it's quite different than what they usually do. Based on the snippets of songs I chose to listen to, I'm really looking forward to hearing Let The Light In, Grandfather, and Kintsugi next week
-
Just now, nectarofthegodss said:I mean Doin Time and Love MV are masterpieces!
Exactly. Love is just absolutely stunning and by far one of my favorite Lana videos, and Doin' Time is put together and crafted so well. I'd love it if we got a video with a narrative flowing through it like Doin' Time, maybe for Taco Truck
-
Lana's work with Rich Lee has always been so visually captivating and beautiful. The videos themselves are very fun as well. I'd really love to see them work together for this album
-
SpoilerWould I sound crazy if I said I kind of consider Peppers to fall into that surf noir genre? It's so reminiscent of that imo
-
SpoilerThe ending is like 50s surf pop mixed with 2010s trap. It's so fun. I love the Angelina sample (and I'd love to know more about why that song was chosen to sample), the whole thing comes together so well. I'm only listening once, but I'm really looking forward to hearing Peppers within the context of the album

I'd love for Lana to work with Jon Batiste again. The work they did together on Ocean Boulevard is spectacular and I think it'd be really exciting to see what else they can create
