Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread
DinahLee replied to Elle's topic in Retired Pre-Release Threads
It would be loveable if she release America as a Stand-Alone Charity Single and get the funds to some institutions or the families from the recent tragedies. Truly beautiful song. -
I'm fucking screaming with the thread and it reminded me that I still sing Summertime Sadness... "[...]Oh, My God, I'm feeling in the air Telephone wires above are sizzling like a Snare Honey Oh I'M FAT, I feel it everywhere[...]" and in my head she said FAT as like... Tired of everything. Full of everything. Fat.

Everytime I remember stanning this bitch back when Paradise Boxset was on pre-Order and it was like R$100,00 and I SKIPPED and now this FUCKING BOXSET IS BEING SOLD FOR FUCKING R$500(REAIS) .......... I hate myself so fucking much. Same for Ultraviolence but I wasn't so into it back then. Ugh. -
Not sure about the first part but that the cover really fits the clunky-mess the song really is... right. Also I'm just sure it will make no sense but Hope reminds me so much of Taylor's "New Years Day". It's the piano thing idk it's like the pre-chorus of taylor's song\intro

Do Y'all remember how we got Lust For Life tracklist from some random webstore and she didn't even announce it herself..... we're far from the shallow now. Little throwback but I remember Amazon was the one to leak the first Joanne snippets we've got back then. But I don't think these websites have the files for now, probably getting by the time we have a new single and they'll just keep it in database. -

It's just it would be nice to keep her string of #1 after Lust For Life (that was a battle rip) but Honeymoon already broke it before as well so... and for sure #2 is amazing. It's nice the way she's doing no promo at all and the album will manage to sell it's first week. -

Just realized this album will debut on Taylor Swift's second week of sales. Well it's over. -

There are some controversies over this subject. Digital files can be better if they're like "WAV" "FLAC" and formats that aren't compressed like MP3. These "WAV" "FLAC" aka lossless files make everything sound "deeper" and clearer, that's also why they're heavier. Vinyl pressing also made it's way into a more contemporany technology, and the files pressed on the discs are usually lossless direct from studio with a special mastering\mixing process to make sure everything's better and more balanced. But the truth after all is that if you don't own good equipament (Headphones for digital or a nice record-player) it's just all the same shit nnn. I love vinyls for the aesthetic and all, but my player is a really simple one so I can't really say "Ohhh so much better" but still. -

Honestly the way Blue was SUCH a random choice with the cover but well... "Baby Blue" "Color Blue (WILD ONE)" "Blue Jeans" "You turn my mood from black to blue" "Pawn Shop Blues" "Tired Of Singing the Blues" "Out of the black into the blue" "Blue ribbons on Ice" "To red blue yellow skies" "I like the ivy and ink blue" ..... and some others, I really wouldn't find it surprising that Blue was Lana's choice nn. I'm not a huge fan of green but I think it really matches perfectly with the album cover and her windbreaker. (+Ultraviolence Urban's exclusive was already translucid blue I believe so it's nice to have variants) -

Forgot how these trailers are always fucking amazing and better than the music videos at all Hopefully we'll have the double video + Happiness Is a Butterfly Also, since Rich Lee is confirmed, maybe not only the Double Video but the original BAR video can show up too? I mean yeah she used the footage but she also frankeinsteined Ultraviolence into Freak+Music To Watch Boys To with these pool scenes so.... -

I've seem cases like Sky Ferreira's Nigh Time My Time where they had stickers to cover her nipple (rip) on the cover. Ultraviolence tracklist was censored back then without "FUCKED" in FMWUTTT. It all depends on how they'll style it for packing I guess. The cover without any tag doesn't sound really plausible because... there's something about having the name of the artist so people can recognize it when they're casual\locals. But a sticker would be nice for everybody who complained but also for the people who enjoyed it. -

Nice point was made about the album title with "FUCKING" would probably be odd to sell. Could be a nice thing if the titles were actually stickers on the physical edition of the album. INB4 there will be no physical edition apart limited vinyl run from her website and places like UO that will ship everything by summer 2020. Also curious about how long til she starts teasing "THE NEXT ONE" since this was meant to be out on top of the year and sis is probably like mixing LDR7 by now. -
There was a gay with his phone flashing "SIMON SAYS" infront of me on her gig last month while I tried to make "Can't Stop Now" happen. Also no one mentioned but she said there will be new music while opening for Charli\Marina upcoming tours

What if the guy on the cover is part of the upcoming double video somehow? Like, I'm expecting some type of narrative on this upcoming video. I believe we have no idea of when the cover was actually shot so it could be part of the video shot somehow too? -

Maybe HIAB could be the real epic closer like Old Money and Hope will be the credits like The Other Woman YES. -

Pre-Order means you'll be able to pre-save the album on stream and also order the physical versions of the album\bundles. Colored Vinyl and Boxset depends on what they'll be doing for it. Honeymoon Boxset was just the album + lito prints and a physical booklet formated as a book I believe. Ultraviolence on the other hand had a picture disc or something along 4 lito prints and the album Vinyl will be probably around 25\30 dollars as "usual" unless there's something special going on. Other retailers like Urban Outfitters probably will have variants with different cover\color so it's cool to take a look around once everything is announced (and I wouldn't worry of things selling out so fast, small tip) -

DinahLee replied to Elle's topic in Retired Pre-Release Threads
there are more than 3 posts, trust me. I understand people who disliked the whole composition, I find it very strong\not "easy" to look at. The colors and the whole "collage" are really different and there's a lot of information going on, but I think that it's not "UGLY" like people been screaming. It's more of "getting used" to it (and Hopefully it will match the sound. That's what I'm really looking forward so far. I believe all of her covers just match the songs so... faithfully) -

I swear to god that cover is so edited that for me it was some type of really light-brown or something, screams colorblind sis here -

Also the work reminds me so much of David LaChapelle, he did the Flaunt Magazine shoot back in 2017. Wish they would work together for more. But I also thought the cover was going to be shoot by Steven Klein? Glad it wasn't cuz for sure some dark mess would be here now -

Sis I'm reading the pages. And Twitter. There are awkward gays out there thinking this is some type of tradition or anything. Like yes it was cute and I find it actually funny she's in a boat. Everybody always fucking hate every cover so I'm really not surprised. It's been the same thing since Honeymoon. "Oh she looks stupid" "Oh she looks ugly" "Oh the guy on the cover" "Oh she's so small in the cover" "Oh that's an odd smile" "Oh what is she wearing infront of this truck??" this has been part of every album campaign by now lmao. -

DinahLee replied to Elle's topic in Retired Pre-Release Threads
I don't get most of the complaining... at all. For the whole "wow no car" "she's not wearing white" I always saw Lust For Life as a full circle moment that closed something that started with Born To Die (She's also not wearing white or infront or any car in that beautiful-mess-airbrushed Paradise edition cover). Even "Get Free" sounded like she was trying to close a chapter in her whole life. Norman Fucking Rockwell seems like the first step of something brand new. Out of the black, into the blue. Sis literally in the middle of the ocean while California is on fire behind her NNNN I guess the whole composition might not work for some people tho and that's ok, that's valid. Just awkward to be mad she's not "INFRONT OF ANY CAR" or this type of stuff. I, personally, love the aesthetic. It's a giant hybrid of Comic-Style, Real painting (background) and photography. -

Darla legendary the Joanne leak running across Target ugh legend -
Oh it's about the last page, take a look. The whole german pronoum thing and some of the few pieces we had from dL is that it had some type of "feminist" approach (and stans are already connecting dots and so). But after hearing her mention about "demo album" I wouldn't find it surprising.

Rescuing a concept you half-used on your second album (before fully scrapping it) right after your fourth album being the most bland piece you've ever done where you just said "Well I did all the songs and then split in 2 parts called LOVE+FEAR because... you know... *generic explanation using psychology gimmicks* doesn't sound like a good thing, but well who knows.
