Add to it the chorus of "I'm not the only one" by Sam Smith xd

Wtf. They sound so much alike.

Ye, I'm on the same mindset concerning it... Quite more complex that TG. It's so interesting, so in the vein of VB. And I find it quite similar to Georgia, by Kevin Abstract (which he composed and produced with Antonoff inspired by VB). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBDt5AsLTYY

I'd be so happy if nobody sent me a link!

Could someone not send me any link, please? mod note: user was warned for this post

Don't know if you've seen already, but J.Antonoff confirmed on twitter both of the songs will be out at midnight!

I don't find racist connotations in The Greatest. But, no place to doubt, talking about him in the song explicitly after the feud they had on Instagram (or her comment, better said, there was truly no feud), and being the lyrics on Hope the ones she chose ("shaking my ass was the only thing that's got this black narcissist of my back"), the whole topic is quite conflictive right now, and it's perfectly legit for people to be confused about it. As none of us are, I'm not inside Lana's head to know what she wanted or not to say, and I haven't seen clearly racist issues on her work till now, but she should have know that the critics on this topic would come (and I'm actually glad that people are fighting any potentially racist expression on art, even if that comes to Lana too).

I'm not dissapointed, but can understand why you do. I'm sure it will have more sense on the context of the album. Just right before Bartender. It will kill us, the album as a whole. The Greatest may be a momentum, but it's quite simple in structural terms. It's very beautiful, and the lyrics are heartbreaking, as well as her vocal delivery (it fucking breaks me when she sings "I miss the music"). Miss Lana keeps evolving.

WE ALL INSIST ON THE NOT!

Can someone send a link to the ones who doesn't have Google Play, please?

This is too good... Would love to see what you can make with her other clownbulms!

Thank you for that. I would have died at any other reference to a "party" one.

Hey! Just thought nobody knew them after some days, so glad to find some fellow fan over here!

Back to the good old days of this thread, when there was nothing but chances to get dissapointed. Kind of missing the funny frustrated vibe here these times!

Is this speculation or are there any sources giving the info?

Love everything about that "musical boners" expression

I get what you mean. Specially the transition to the pre-chorus, and the use of the guitar on it. Reminds me a lot of the most delicate pieces done by John Frusciante, as Venice Bitch already did. This one -mix of the original Bowie's song in which Frusciante collaborated- is, i think, a good example of the echoes of his work on Lana's new sound. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8nuT1rDB7o

This is fucking dreamy. Love it.

Hey! Is it already out there, NZ fans?

I think it's pm, but not sure, now that you say. I've always been able to listen to the songs from 12pm onwards when she releases them in NZ.

I thought the same when I saw it! It's starting to grow on me, actually. Quite a risky but funny too artwork choice. By the way... So, she's releasing a single from her album in an hour -NZ timeline- without even letting it be known on her social media?

Wtf hahahaha

I hate how underrated this post is

The link doesn't work

Ye, don't misunderstand me. I get it's a metaphore of fearing to enter a relationship with someone who's risky to be with in terms of emotional/affective stability or whatever. I don't think Lana is talking about a real "serial killer", obviously. What I find problematic is the language and the figures she finds "suitable" to refer to human relationship topics. It's a form of symbolic power which she's actually a victim of. I've always felt bad for her whenever discussing her love affairs on her music, because the tendence is always to elaborate on them from a very violent and submissive perspective -maybe Ultraviolence is the album where she shows that more explicitly-. Anyway, just thinking and sharing with you.
