If she’s performing the cover song, literally post that Red single cover for YNWA, say how excited you are to perform it for the first time, boom. That’s it. That is all that needs to be done and we wouldn’t be running around in circles saying ‘OMG COCC FRIDAY’ (yes I’m well aware of one of those people, but I crash a lot faster and see through the hype quickly)

Knew it 

So according to eclipse, she’s performing You’ll Never Walk Alone on Monday. Bye.

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 :/

homegirl might as well cancel the fallon show performance if she's only singing covers. we don't need that negativity. 

'Summertime The Gershwin Version' alternative cover
(really simple tho)

 
 
Unfiltered version:
 
 

Tbh I don’t know whats the point of singing any of these songs that she released this year. LMLYLAW was put out 2 months ago and it’s forgotten by now, Summertime was for charity and You’ll never walk alone for british football club. Just give us Chemtrails and I won’t bother your ass until the album is out. If Taylor can release a whole new album before Christmas Lana can release a damn song. 

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)

Do artists always perform two songs on Jimmy Fallon? Sometimes I’ve seen them do two but other times it’s just been one.
 
I think that if she just does one song it will probably be Let Me Love You Like a Woman. If she does two songs, I think it will be LMLYLAW and the title track of COTCC, considering we have a link for it now. 
 
 It’s possible she’ll do Summertime the Gershwin Version but that song didn’t really get any “push” once it came out. After LMLYLAW came out, so many promo videos and video messages of Lana promoting it for various streaming services appeared on Instagram. I think this performance is to promote COTCC and Jimmy may just slip in something about the audience being able to get her AS&C record this Christmas.

She'll do well. Because of Covid, there won't be a live studio audience. Also, I bet she'll do a standard from the supposed album she was to have out for Christmas. Probably Summertime.

Chemtrails, white lines 
Flew over the sky you know it made my eyes burn 

I'd add a "baby it's the best past the test and yes" just after

its "Laying blue in your truck in my party dress btw i love LA"

So we have the title for LDR8 already!

In closing, because I know I’m beating a dead horse and spamming this thread 
 
if 
 
A) her debut album was NFR 
or
B) I was introduced to her with NFR 
 
I wouldn’t be as big of a fan of hers as I am now. Her first 4 albums are definitely a different sound and world than NFR, and my music taste falls more along the records that made me fall in love with her and her world. I’m not saying NFR is a bad album, it’s just vastly different than the world she had built and not so much my cup of tea. Do I want her to go back to an old sound? Heck no! I want her to evolve and grow. But if anything LMLYLAW is NFR 2.0 and I can’t help but be a little more disappointed. 
 
After QFTC and her instagram post of her stripping in Tropico with the caption ‘#fuckoff’ I got really hopeful. THATS what I want. Bad bitch, idgaf vibes. I’m hoping Chemtrials touches on that more and is a return to form. 

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 hate him so much it all went downhill when she met him

Basically, she just needs to get the hell away from Jack.
