Norman Fucking Rockwell is the best intro song to any of her albums. Born to Die is one of my favorite songs of her's and all of the other albums have pretty good intro songs, but nothing compares to NFR. 
 
Strings come in, get you curious, then here comes a kind of cheery, pretty piano. Then finally, "God damn, man child..." And then you're kinda just sitting there giggling or at least smirking. Next comes, "You fucked me so good that I almost said 'I love you.'" DAAAAMNNN okay!
 
The melodies are beautiful, the lyrics are funny, the piano is perfect for setting the mood. Definitely one of my new favorite songs of her. I'm still blown away. 

sometimes i wonder if they’re the same...like maybe they’re not vape clouds, her lungs just do that

a full year of emotional cock and ball torture, and I thought we had finally reached the end of the road, but Mistress Del Rey said no, Sad Gays, it never ends, and laughed wickedly as she brought out the paddle, it never ends, it's White Hot Forever 

It's...not all that. I've found my people. I've lost my people. In the end, you realize how fulfilling solitude can be. What you describe, what you want, it's fun at first but it just leaves you empty. It's overrated.

I don't know if she has found her people. I certainly hope the Cha Cha Matchas aren't her people, because uh ...

Blue jeans (bitch!)
White shirt (bitch!)
Walk into the room (bitch!) you know you made my eyes burn (fuck!)

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

Im an MMA fan and know of him, the whole part about him fits him. Even the "getting high as they fight" it's really common for MMA fighters to get high before training particularly when doing jiu-jitsu, Joe Schilling and people he trains with are big into smoking weed.
 
The parts "moves mountains and" was I think a sneaky way of Lana putting MMA into the song and the part about "pounds them to ground", Ground & Pound is a big part of MMA - something Joe is actually bad at as he was a kickboxer used to stand up fighting and was quite poor on the ground and at jiu-jitsu.

When LFL first came out I hated White Mustang, but now it's one of my fav songs on there! Although it is a simple song it takes a while to realise how subtly it builds and layers and how her voice has this gorgeous sense of almost desperation at the "and you're revving, and revving...." part. I really sink into that song now.

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

I thought I might as well be really unpopular:
 
I do not like that she's mentioned this new album the same day as she dropped NFR. It makes me very uneasy and I really wish it was all a lie.
 
1. She's definitely working with Jack again, so we can expect more of all of the stuff I just bitched about.
2. She seems almost manic, and of course it's her prerogative, but doing two albums back-to-back + touring + 341232 soundtracks seems like a really great way to burn out.
3. The title, "White Hot Forever" is quite alarming ... I don't even know what to think. I am scared of the unknown.
4. I am downright TERRIFIED of what she's writing about, given her current influences, which include Beverly Hills social climbers and Churchome.

Damn, I felt that! Currently in the library "reading" (listening to the record) about to burst into tears. ⚰⚰

I think I'm gonna make a "deluxe edition" for NFR like I did with Lust For Life... would yall be interested in that?

ugh can the setlist have body electric, shades of cool, california, cruel world, fuck it i love you etc. I need this kinda vibe, all with heavy guitars and drums like lana pls give blake a job and something to do since you've ditched him for ur backup dancers

Barrie used his burner account to ask her who California was about

Lana is probs currently googling “white hot forever” wondering why so many people were spamming it

She answered my question about her vape flavour lmaoooo at least I got one in x

In the name of higher consciousness
I let the best man I knew go
'Cause it's nice to love and be loved
But it's better to know all you can know
 
Ah, she was well beyond her years with this one

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
