That very first bass drop in the second chorus of Video Games... so unexpected but so impactful The guitar in the second pre-chorus of Happiness is a Butterfly is unbelievable, add so much to a song?? The gospel-style backing vocals (the "ooooh"s) in the Ultraviolence bridge The sax/trumpet (I can't tell the difference hahaha) that comes in the bridge of Art Deco, uuuugh that takes that song from a 6 to a 10 for me For some reason I always get chills at "Kanye West is blind and gone/Life on Mars ain't just a song" in The Greatest I always look forward to "You talk to the walls when the party gets bored of you" in Norman Fucking Rockwell, probably because I dated a guy exactly like that lmao When that first chorus hits in Black Beauty it's so so special At around 5:48 in Venice Bitch when the sort of fast electric guitar (I'm not sure how else to describe it) comes in for a moment and builds up anticipation for that glorious moment at 6:04 when Lana's vocals come back and she's singing "aaaah, aaaaahhhh!" in a wild, almost shouty way I love it SO MUCH it's so uncharacteristic of her to be so raw and almost out-of-tune but it sounds incredible, sad, angry and passionate all at once. I'm obsessed with that part of the song. "It's not one of those phases I'm going through, or just a song, it's not one of them, I'm on my own, on my own, on my own again" in The Blackest Day... so raw and honest I honestly believe one of the most sincerely cool moments in Lana's entire discography is the part of Brooklyn Baby where she sings "If you don't get it then forget it, 'cuz I don't have to fuuuuuckin' explaaaaaaain iiiiiit" - tell them sis!!! She captures the spirit of not giving a fuck so well!!

Holy Terrain is okay, but it doesn't feel sorta.... exclusively Twigs??? If that makes sense Still like it tho!!

oh you think so?? i feel a lil bit of summer vibes from NFR, but i mostly feel like it's kind of a september album if that makes sense?? like the transition from summer to fall

though for different reasons i relate to the song so much too!! sending you lots of love, i'm so deeply sorry for the situation you're in right now. every time i see your profile on here i'll send a little love into the atmosphere for you and hope it reaches you <3

if NFR is a fall album, WHF has to be its summer counterpart! lots of rock and roll but blended with intense, echoing, steamy sounds akin to HM (i.e.: Freak, Salvatore) and a consistent atmosphere throughout ugh gimme a sexy summertime album pls lana

I feel this!! Some songs border on painful to listen to on higher volumes, as if in the track itself all instruments / layers are being played at exactly the same volume so the entire track comes out very loud and almost scratchy sounding. Idk if that makes sense. still love the album tho

I feel your pain, I ordered 3 signed items and not a single one has a heart

just out of interest, how would you guys feel if she did a different setlist for each leg of the tour?? would you be glad she's mixing it up or peeved cause one leg may have had a better setlist than yours??

omg exactly like.... what else are they here for sis i'm sure she could say "jump" and they'd say "palm trees in black and white" "how high"

holy.... shit..... you're actually right wtf like zero sarcasm this has actually changed everything in my brain towards this song?? you know when people say "thanks I hate it" wellll THANKS I LOVE IT wtf omg

well it is Norman FUCKING Rockwell after all but agreed on TNBAR ugh i find the new lyrics so awkward

does anybody else have a few odd lyrics they wish they could alter on NFR??? i mean i know lana is the artist and i'm merely the listener but there's a few little things i really wish i could alter like in HTD: "you just crack another beer and pretend that you're still here" - the song is all about escapism and disappearing, so wouldn't it make more sense for the lyrics to be "you just crack another beer and pretend that you're not here"? and in FIILY, i know it's super picky but: "i used to shoot up my veins in the arm, and shit's even brighter you're gone" i'd prefer if it was worded as "i used to shoot up my veins in the arm, it's brighter now that you're gone" idk it's not important lmao oh and Bartender: "but sometimes girls just want to have fun"; in the verse prior she's already talking about girls having fun, there's nothing to dispute, so why the "but"??? surely it would make more sense as "cause sometimes girls just want to have fun" idk i'm being mad extra hahaha

is anyone else strangely obsessed with looking at pre-fame pics and videos of lana/lizzy?? feels like peering thru the looking glass

ohhh thanks! he reminds me of john krasinski for some reason

possible stupid question but is he the guy on the right or left??

omg..... it feels so strange to imagine the two of them together but hey she loves that man like nobody can he moves mountains then pounds them to ground again i guess

feels funny that this is an unpopular opinion, but 'video games' is still my favourite ever lana song

It'll be sick to hear PWYC, Cherry and Shades of Cool live (SoC especially!!) since I never have before but this makes me very very nervous that she's not gonna switch up the setlist much imagine having a discography as deep, exciting, varied and - above all - BELOVED as Lana's yet sticking to the same like 15 songs in every show lmao

NFR: "You talk to the walls when the party gets bored of you" (so genius, I dated a guy exactly like this and omggg this line is so ACCURATE) MAC: "You took my sadness out of context at the Mariner's Apartment Complex; I aint no candle in the wind" VB: "Give me Hallmark: one dream, one life, one lover" FIILY: "I moved to California but it's just a state of mind / It turns out everywhere you go you take yourself that's not a lie" DT: "The tension, it's getting hotter / I'd like to hold her head underwater" LS: "The taste, the touch, the way we love, it all comes down to make the sound of our love song" CG: "There's things I wanna say to you, but I'll just let you live; like if you hold me without hurting me, you'll be the first who ever did" (god I relate SO FUCKIN MUCH) HTD: "I know he's in over his head but I love that man like nobody can / He moves mountains then pounds them to ground again" California: "You don't ever have to be stronger than you really are when you're lying in my arms" TNBAR: "My baby used to dance underneath my architecture / He was '70s in spirit, '90s in his frame of mind" TG: "Hawaii just missed that fireball / L.A. is in flames, it's getting hot / Kanye West is blind and gone / Life on Mars aint just a song" Bartender: "Baby, remember, I'm not drinking wine, but that cherry coke you serve is fine and our love's sweet enough on the vine" (currently recovering from alcohol addiction so this line hit me hard) HIAB: "Happiness is a butterfly / Try to catch it like every night / It escapes from my hands into moonlight" HIADTFAWLMTH: literally the entire song lmfao

a little speculative setlist for the tour

the doin' time video is ridiculous i fkn love it

haven't listened yet (currently trapped at work) but i'm honestly glad HTD has a different sort of production. even if it's not perfect - hell, even if i end up disliking it - i think it's crucial the album isn't just filled with piano ballads and stuff. given that we have the live piano version we can go back and listen to (no screaming crowd, yay!!) i'm glad that she decided to give HTD the "bigger" sort of production treatment. that being said i haven't heard it yet, so......

omg the LFL tracklist arrangment ALWAYS bothered me so im v happy this thread exists, this my take on it without adding or subtracting any songs 13 Beaches (i mean seriously COME ON this song is the perfect opener) White Mustang Cherry Love Lust For Life When The World Was At War Coachella In My Feelings Groupie Love Tomorrow Never Came God Bless America Beautiful People Beautiful Problems Summer Bummer Heroin Change Get Free
