Formation

I hate the ones with her in the green & dress and I agree but the SB cover and the shoots they did for NME(? where she's wearing a black dress for some and a white one in front of greenery in another) I really love

This makes more sense because unless they got the stems, I don't see how they could edit out the drums of V1 to make the second verision.

Aren't most boxset and records suppose to ship today? Has anyone in the east US gotten a shipping email?

When she first posted the BTS video back then, I thought it fit perfectly with the bridge of BAR. That's why I assumed it had to be on the album since she was "clearly" filming a video for it. I guess I might've not been far off omg

Then stop talking about it. It's not just him who does it, but jeez if you have an exclusive either leak it or shut up ( I know this is brought up every time someone gives us info but yknow)

Why does no one record the important stuff? Why is INHA being withheld from us but they'll give us full lyrics? Why can't we get answers?

No I haven't, but I think it's because I also ordered the boxset and other things that won't ship til late Sept. The email said things would ship in bulk, so you should get everything all at one. (I think lol)

Random, but do we know what the background vocals on the Cherry bridge say?

Chorus is the same melody as the chorus of Back to the Basics from what I can tell

I will not stand seeing GBA slander. Don't know what y'all doing if it's not Top 5

I would've at the very least liked for her to read the line after she stopped, "My words echo, thus in your mind"

the last time I can remember this happening was with How Big How Blue How Beautiful. It literally didn't leak until, like, an hour before the NZ release

Like 90% of those that even know/listen to a leak this close to release date are die hard fans. I've spent well over $100 dollars on this era alone I think I can listen to it a few days early if it leaks. Lana cares so little about it stop acting like she's a fragile little doll

do leaks at this point even hurt her (or any artist when it's this close to release date?) Like most that even know about a leak will be then more diehard fans, which means they probably spent money on merch for the era. Like HM premiered almost a week before release @ UO, UV leaked early, BTD did too I thinketc. A leak now won't hurt sales. (I'm not advocating for a leak--just saying that if it does happen, it won't hurt)

yeah it clearly states, and they remind you in the confirmation, that the cassette and vinyl aren't coming til September. Same with Lorde's melodrama though so we have a smaller wait lmao

I think he's just going to be in the background, so she just didn't mention him

Y'all go from "this is the best lyrics she's given us in years" to "what happened to her song writing" so quick. How about we wait til the album is in our hands before making those statements

"My record is so hot and summmmmmmery. I luvv it" ugh, I'm so ready for the record of the summer

We played ourselves

Greg James

Annoying stans always do this. They're so rude and disrespectful smh

I need lyrics to what she's saying cause we have our Mumbling Legend back

"To Las Vegas, chaos, cause you know we're racist"

"the best ones" does this mean there's more than one collab with him/those she tagged?

Something about the New Rules pre-chorus in the demo sounded better to me than the final, but the song is still my favorite, I think. If we didn't have half the album in singles, I probably would be more impressed, but it's still a really great debut album
