Video Games is my fav song of all time, Bel Air is one of my fave Lana tracks, I'm a Hope Is A Dangerous Thing stan and I'm a fan of the stripped back May Jailer stuff, so it's not that I can't handle piano or stripped back production but.... idk, I feel like sometimes these slower more ballad-y tracks get lost and lose their value if they're in an album full of them. Making good music is a talent and a skill, but you know what else is a talent and a skill? Arranging and pacing an album well.
 
I also wanna point out that although some fan faves are technically piano ballads (Old Money, Video Games, Black Beauty, etc etc) those songs usually have additional instruments (harps and strings in VG, drums in BB, etc) and strong melodies. There's a fullness to them. The apprehension regarding lots of piano on this album, for me, comes from the fear that there might not be that same fullness on these new tracks and that the album won't be paced or arranged very well and the amount of slow piano tracks could be overkill so I won't care to go back to it v much.
 
That being said - personally I like Blue Banisters and Text Book but I absolutely ADORE WFWF, and that's because there's a strong vocal melody in the performance, those synths/organs and some cool drums in the track, as well as an overall empowering message that just ticks all the right boxes for me!!

remember when we thought Honeymoon was Lana at her most ~stripped back and slow~?? oh if the fandom could see itself now kjskdjlksdj

this is the only thing giving me hope! like Text Book is obviously v different to WFWF, Thunder (if its on the album) is v different to Blue Banisters... im hoping this means there'll be a mixture of instrumentation, production styles, etc
 
can't wait for Be My Mommy [Be My Daddy 2.0 The Re-Up] right after Cherry Blossom as an ode to Chuck <3

Stop pretending to be an insider. You're always wrong anyways.

suddenly the bb album cover art makes even MORE sense! the vibes as we near the holiday season... give me... the void at the centre of commercialism, sitting on the porch alone, slipping out of family parties without saying goodbye  

It's kinda annoying how these NON-INSIDERS on ATRL behave.
 
They could literally ask so many questions about the album....
But no. They act all high and mighty and go around saying "heueueueue the twinks at analboards are debating whehsheheu" 
Or else they ask the dumbest useless questions ever. 
And sometimes they act "nooooooo we wont ask any questions. We are better than that. Lana will release when she wants xoxo. Dont trouble our precious insiders"
 
...
Imagine. You can ask
The producers.
Number of tracks.
Collabs 
Genre
Duration of album
A possible tease of a lyric or an acronym.
Possible leaked songs appearing.
Possible music videos..
 
You can just ask it as a yes/no question. That way , the surprise still remains..but we atleast get a bit of info instead of dying in uncertainty. 
And insiders can choose not to answer questions which reveal too much info.
 
Pls let me sign up on ATRL and I will do all this. Stupid website closed registrations.
 
END of rant.
 
?
Now Arcadia drops this or next week probably. With BOz saying "give her a few more weeks"
 

Pls lana don't make thunder a piano ballad. That's all we ask. Pls. 
 
JUST DONT DO IT

Today's scorching hot selphie is equivalent to at least .75 of an EP so I am totally good for at least another month.

?? I dont understand. 
could someone pls clarify with BOZ <3?
 
"Is there more than piano on the album"
 
Boz " a lot of".
 
?? Alot more piano or other instrumentals?

When it turns out that BB was entirely scrapped for a piano ballad Christmas album due to be released in December 

hate to be a negative nancy but my hype for this album decreases the more we learn about it honestly  but that's okay, because either 1) i'll have low expectations so i won't spend a bunch of money pre-ordering 5453458 variants of an album i don't end up liking and i won't be truly disappointed because i was ready for it 2) i'll be pleasantly surprised!!!

it'll be interesting listening to this record in what i assume will be like... november time maybe?

remember when we thought Honeymoon was Lana at her most ~stripped back and slow~?? oh if the fandom could see itself now kjskdjlksdj
