    I probably came off ruder than I intended. All I’m trying to say is it’s completely okay that some people see NFR as an amazing body of work and don’t see the criticisms I have for it. But at the same time, some of us can’t help but feel disappointed that part of the Lana appeal seemed (to me, not saying everyone thinks the same say) to fade away a little. It isn’t just her lyrical content, I want beats in her songs, I want strings, I want ambiance, I want to really feel like I’m in her world. Norman was good storytelling wise (and having Violets tie into it was an amazing touch) but it is slightly annoying that you can’t say you miss all these things without being labeled a BTD fanboy who just needs to ‘move past’ the album that initially hooked me.

    I definitely don’t think BTD is her best, and I don’t want a BTD 2.0 (or 2.0 of any record she’s made) she’s had so many iconic lyrical moments throughout her career (her song writing definitely didn’t just magically stop with BTD), it just seems like the girl who came full circle and sang “Sometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind I want to get off but I keep riding the ride” went back to singing “lying on your chest, in my party dress, I’m a fucking mess” like...where’s the fire.
     

    this is the unpopular opinion thread and I know me not liking NFR is a very unpopular opinion.

     

    she went from having lush strings, ambiance sprinkled throughout her songs (God Knows I Tried had crickets, 13B had SO many little sound effects and noises that made the song so full) and NFR had strings that don’t add a thing to the overall song and hardly any kind of beats (CG being an exception, I would have killed for a full song that sounds like the last minute)

     

    I can be critical and still like her

     

    edit: plus, the two songs I’m quoting as saying I miss aren’t even BTD. They’re paradise (which yes is an EP but also feels very much like it’s own body if work)

    The lack of communication on Lana’s part is getting super frustrating. I know she lives her own life and has flat out said she doesn’t care about losing fans, but it wouldn’t kill her to communicate even a little. It’s always been a problem with her but it’s getting increasingly bad. First the September 5th date coming and going with her saying nothing, the book signing where she threw two days around, the instagram live on Election Day where she flat out says “I was planning on making an official announcement but this will do”

     

    and now her performance planned for Monday. Even if she is going to sing Chemtrails (which I’m finding more and more unlikely) she could at least post a ‘Catch you Monday’ to announce it. 
     

    I’m also in agreement with the others who say she’s really losing what made her music unique. The woman who sang her Pussy tastes like Pepsi cola, had to touch herself to pretend her man was there, was being led to war with her man’s brilliant direction...gone, now her mans just being a jerk :/

    I can’t wait to cry my heart out to a new album so soon after getting Folklore!! Those songs still haven’t even registered with me and we’re getting 15 new tracks tonight :defeated:

     

    Not a lot going on my ASS

     

    lowkey was hoping for a rerelease but will take a brand new album

    Everyone with a working brain knows that there was absolutely nothing wrong with what she posted on instagram.

    Only those found issue with it who just ache to be offended by something. But those twitter snowflakes live for that and move on to the next thing to hate on in a few days so it does not matter that much.


    As if the only thing I’m referring to is that. This isn’t the right thread to get into this discussion but. 
     

    1)the driving video with her driving to Eminem and showing the road while driving. 
    2)mesh mask

    3)the lashings on Twitter to ‘defend’ herself where she ends up digging herself in deeper. (Lying about the mesh mask for one of many examples)

     

    I agree completely that the QFTC thing wasn’t wrong (maybe a little wrong worded but the message itself wasn’t wrong) nor am I a ‘Twitter snowflake’ aching to get offended by anything. I couldn’t give two craps what she does. I still proudly stan her, buy her overpriced merch, and steam the absolute crap out of her music. 
     

    Overall it has been a rough year to Stan her when she could have taken the L from the criticism about OFTC. (which her normal fan base and the ones who support her understood what she meant) instead she doubled down and added more negative press, falsely announced an album at the end as a sort of ‘Ah Ha!’ And then kept getting into crap :rip:

     

    but it obviously didn’t hurt her popularity. Her Instagram posts get at least over 500,000 likes on almost anything she posts. She was asked to cover Summertime and this song. And she’s really showing off her vocals on both and it gives me hope for the album after Chemtrails that she most likely is going to start working on soon once the covers album is done (or she already is)

    Let's be honest both are perfect. Even without an album, she is feeding us this year.

    Boom Like That, Life Is Beautiful, I Talk To Jesus, every imaginable part of Wild One, Let Me Love You Like A Woman, Hallucinogenics, Violet Bent Backwards Over The  Grass, Thunder... it' s a great year to be a Lana fan.


    Of those 8 things you mentioned, Lana only released 3 of them :rip: 

     

    And this year has been difficult to be a fan... a different controversy each month, delaying the album by almost a year

     

    im hoping the classics album makes up for a little bit of it

    No vinyl pre order? No nothing.


    the chance of it getting a vinyl are super slim since she’s releasing it digitally because of COTCC’s vinyl delay :)

     

    I expect some kind of CD/ITunes pre order in the near future since her original announcement for the project has a Christmas release date..but we will see! She isn’t the most reliable when it comes to release dates

    Is there a master post of She Is Miley demos?? I loved the EP she released and then stopped keeping up with her after all the delays and I’ve been loving this album and have it on repeat and now like a greedy gay guy I want more

    a not only piano song two days ago, and a return to strings for this song :wub:

     

    If COTCC isnt on the same level as these two I STG.

     

    The only huge thing LMLYLAW has going for it is it’s an original. Summertime has a beautiful arrangement and vocals out of this world, and You’ll Never Walk Alone has strings

    Do you mean Charlie? I was going through Chuck’s posts to see it but I didn’t find anything, but I did notice that Charlie posted about directing Perfume Genius’s new video and in it we can see some scary animal masks! :wub: was that what you were referring to?


    Yes, Charlie! My mistake!
