boom like that

So its been a year and a half since my initial badly written review of NFR and I feel like sharing my updated thoughts on the album Norman fucking Rockwell: I think its a cute track that I really like. Solid and safe and a nice title track. Mariners Apartment Complex: Still love this song since the day it came out. It set my high and massively disappointed expectations for the album and is still a classic. Venice Bitch: Still such a great song. I always listen through all 10 minutes of it when I stream it. I also loved the song since the day it came out but thats a given with VB and MAC. Fuck it I love you: Initially I thought it was an okay song but its now one of my favorites off the album wasn't much of a competition for that though It never fails to get me in that good vibe and I can always just listen to it whenever. The end of the song especially is just mwah Doin' Time: Don't really like this song still. Its good, yes, its also mainstreamy which isn't really a bad thing. I don't really vibe with the lyrics since it is such a straight guy song. Love the music video though. Love song: Still hate it The snippet was far superior than the rest of the song. I especially hate the prechorus part with the dress chest mess best test lyrics. The chorus itself isn't all that bad but basic at the same time. The verses are the best part of the song. Cinnamon girl: My opinions haven't changed much for CG. Its a solid song and I quite enjoy it. I like it a lot but it is basic for Lana. How to disappear: Its weird to me people like this song. California: The biggest glow up for me personally. I disliked it at first because it didn't click with me, but then it did. Its such a great song now and I catch myself singing it in my head. The prechorus and verses especially get stuck in my head. The "and if you come back to california/america, just hit me uuuuuuppp" line to I also think it uses the best throwback on the whole album with the "flipside" lyric. It felt natural whereas every other reference on the album felt forced Love song. The Next Best American Record: The greatest: I like the song quite a bit now! I don't really get why people think its like VB or MAC level but I do think its really good. I wish the guitar solo was more aggressive, for the type of song it is, about "the culturE", I feel like it would've benefited with that emotion in the production. Other than that I think the outro is beautiful and the transition to the rest of the piano ballads was a great detail. Bartender: Still love this song. Feel like y'all hate on one of the better songs on the album too much. Rick could slap his dick on the mic and I'd still eat it up. Happiness is a butterfly: Its such a cute song. Kinda forgot my initial thoughts on this track but its really cute. My favorite part has to be the part right before the prechorus in the second verse. Where shes like "I'll pick you up if you're in town on the corner, ah-ah-uh-ah" Always loved that part ever since she teased it in one of the million snippets. hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have - but I have it: I actually really love the first verse and the first chorus. Its the second verse and second chorus that loses me. Feel like some of the lyrics were too intricate and so personal to the point where only she knows what shes singing about. Which to some is actually a positive, the mystery behind those confusing lyrics, but to me personally its not. I especially hate the iPad lyric I wish she never wrote that down. Everything else after I like though. But overall just usually pass on the song mostly because of this. Now I think my main issue with the album is how overhyped it was. The critics praised it so hard and the GP were all over it and honestly I think it was because it was what was "popular" at that moment. NFR was trendy and we saw all the normies hop on it. They call it her best album when UV and HM are right there and the disregard to her previous work leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Obviously that isn't Lana's fault or Jack's fault or the album's fault. I don't think anyone could have predicted such a safe project to be so over hyped even Lana herself seems to feel that way, shocked about it, especially in the most recent interview. I don't think the album is bad at all, I actually do like it just definitely not as much as her other albums. I can't say I love it but I can say I do love some of the tracks individually. I like the album a lot more than my first listen, but I still don't consider it anywhere near the holy trifecta. Its cute, I'll give her that, but when cute is next to gorgeous well gorgeous is going to devour cute

I'm so suspicious of UO All it says is "green" and "exclusive green vinyl" so I'll wait to see what it looks like in person before even considering it the NFR! pink has traumatized me, will never preorder a variant off UO again. pricings so jacked too

Whenever I think of listening to things in the rain I think of pretty things so have this Song that'll scare your neighbors at night

@Dragon you forgot to continue it

Cruel World vs Freak Like Me (Demo)

If the OG cover really has a gatefold then I'm assuming all versions with the regular cover are gatefolds, including the yellow. I'm pretty sure every variant of Violet had a gatefold so I'm guessing all the sleeves will be the same. The alt I'm not sure, I hope it does.

Another campaign :kris2: recampaign for these three: :sherlock: :michelle: :lanasplode: Criminal that this also hasn't been added

feel like i just got dick slapped in the face by shel silversteins poetry

Still can't believe she made a grey vinyl horrifying. At least there are multiple colors and variations to choose from. Although I do love the red, it is kinda out of place with the alt cover. I think the juxtaposition is a nice contrast and it fits in that sense. But I wonder why she didn't do like a strong malibu color. Like she also had a chance to do that color for LFL with the malibu truck but she went with clear? Either way it looks lovely so I don't really care. Hope theres a gatefold with more Neil pics. Also hope the poster is a picture we haven't seen before. Or one of the Yosemite pics, those are all so cute.

Velvet Crowbar vs Raise Me Up (Mississippi South)

LOL Tbf I didn't give him that great of a chance and might revisit him again. Usually I listen through at least 2-3 projects in complete before I decide whether or not I wanna continue. But I think I was listening through only one album and my dinner was ready and I was like "yeah spaghetti.. " and forgot about it. And when I got back I was in the mood for Lana and clicked off

It was the same for me too, I was trying her out and I didn't really like her music as a whole. But then I found myself coming back to her and it just suddenly clicked and now I love her music. Its so weird how it worked that way but it did and I'm glad I eventually loved it cause her music fucking rocks My favorite album is by far Front Row Seat To Earth, I think its what made me really enjoy her music.

Everything about Marina is a miss for me Her music, her voice, the production of her songs, her lyrics... nothing clicked at all when I first heard her music like 10 years ago and it still doesn't click now Fiona Apple I just don't really like her music either. Just not my cup of tea. See a lot of Florence here and I agree, don't really like her music. I feel like I would but I just don't unfortunately I also tried getting into Tame Impala and I didn't like his music either. FKA Twigs aswell just don't really like her music.

In honor of Boom Like That making it as runner up let me leak my shitty 1 hour extended mix that literally nobody asked for https://dbree.org/v/0049db

I never post anything in here because it scares me but I wanted to say The Party's Never Over is so good and I didn't know I needed it in my life till now

Got really into her last year. Collection and For Young Hearts are my favorite albums by her. Clean felt kinda lacking in a few songs even though its her most popular album. Color Theory she stepped it up though, it was a new direction and I thoroughly enjoyed it

Serious note though two of them are gonna be the picture disc and the walmart exclusive so that leaves two more mystery ones Can't wait to order the strawberry milkshake marble 7 Eleven exclusive and white pearlescent starbucks exclusive w/ a free COCC tumbler

I'm not sure about you guys but thats not "pale green" to me The gorgeous HM twin that is the red vinyl remains unbothered

Just the red one from Target. I only need one vinyl for each album. And I find that all the other variants look ugly from not just the cover but vinyl colors aswell. Don't know what possessed her to make 50 shades of musty mildew Pastel green sounds cute but UO also sold the NFR! pink as a peptobismol pale pink but then it came out as a hot pink so I don't trust them anymore

Waiting for the pastel pink TJMaxx exclusive

Walmart exclusive Walmart sold me the LFL boxset for cheap so they can get it

Preordered the red finally The cover is so gorgeous its gonna look so beautiful in my collection Also on the Target site it said it was Target exclusive meaning probably just exclusively at Target in NA. I guess that means the UO one will be different if UO even has one this time around. Honestly though, I'm really down with Target getting the alt this time over UO because UO is kinda a disgusting company.

edit: @99centlips just saw you quoted me aswell thank you for the heads up aswell

So I actually couldn't secure a red vinyl before they sold out and I can't justify spending 64.99 + 5 dollar shipping from the JBHifi store when HMV was selling it for like 20 pounds. Its also only one disc for the album so paying anything 30+ is insane. Placing my bets UO or Target will carry the version but I contacted a Target customer service guy and he was completely clueless and told me to call their phoneline tomorrow so theres that
