I very much want this! New Lana music (even if it is an album full of covers) is always exciting. Granted I don’t want it as much because the lead single is two weeks away
 
But I would still very much like this record

she announced UV to be released May 1st but it didn’t come out until June. The only album that’s come out ‘on time’ is BTD/P and HM
 
and even paradise doesn’t count because Tropico was ‘releasing soon’ for almost a year 

There are many factors that play into role behind closed doors.... who knows what’s going on in Lana’s PERSONAL life or what her MANAGEMENT Is telling her... at the end of the day quality art is quality art...life isn’t easy, it’s one thing to be at work investing time and energy in various projects but it’s another thing to release them. Contracts and shit really put the release process at a halt sometimes... all because of the $$$ the only thing that matters in this hell driven industry ... at least we know whether through visuals, sound or words Lana’s heart will always be present in her work.. thus worth the wait. 

How long have you been a fan of hers? 'Cause the date May 1st came right out of her mouth when asked UV's release date.
It's pretty much what @#glimmeringdarling said above: even if she intends to do stuff, her label always has the final word. If Chemtrails (the album) is really coming way sooner than expected, then I guess her label won't give the green light to release another album so close to another one (that is way more important); even if it's only a covers album w/ a lowkey release.

Did you not read what I said before you quoted me? I said it is frustrating, annoying, and rude. I’m not making excuses for her, but at the same times....yikes. She’s still working on it and I don’t see it as entitled or troubling that she isn’t giving us details every step of the way. Some people just aren’t good at communicating and while it would have been nice to get some kind of update regarding the record (“hey guys record is coming along!”) I’m not mad about it because it’s to be expected. Not to be one of those ‘she doesn’t owe us anything’ people BUUUUT. She doesn’t owe us anything. We know the record is being worked on, and I hardly see it as an ethical blind spot that she doesn’t communicate well. She has big intentions and she follows through. I know this is Lanaboards and we’re all big fans of her, but I’m not gonna come on here and disrespect her because she’s taking longer than she thought. She should have not gave an estimated release date, and we wouldn’t be in this boat. Same with COTCC, we’re only 3 months past her og date but that doesn’t mean it’s not coming.
 
I trust her process and know whenever we get the covers album, it’ll be amazing and it’ll be perfected vs what we would have gotten yesterday. 
 
 
Thanks for the correction!
 
Take her ‘it’s delayed’ tweet as more proof. she says she lost 9 days of work and the delay is going to be a month. She is terrible at communication, but it’s not like she scrapped violets...and what we got was an incredible record. 
 
this cover album will come when it comes

nobody is asking you to worship or make her a cult figure, but the fact of the matter is that she's always been like this since Paradise. Projects that either don't see the light of day, are delayed months because she gets ahead of herself, etc. This isn't some new behavior with her. It's literally been happening since the beginning. So if this lack of communication and "rudeness" is bothering you so much, you don't have to keep dealing with it. It's really that simple 
 
And this isn't meant to be an attack, either. My best suggestion is to just not get emotionally invested with the projects she announces until there's a set in stone official announcement, like the Chemtrails one.

Well my reply was to someone saying we need to get anything and we’re starving because of it, and I was pointing out that we still got something. I didn’t say it was funny or cute, I’ve said before her lack of communication is frustrating and annoying but she’s been like this since Tropico and while it is rude to her fans/supporters, it’s just in her nature. The Jan 4th for violets that wasn’t delayed until jan 5th really made me not really care about anything she announces until it’s set in stone. Which while is shitty advice, it works

that’s what I think too!!
 
she could have easily pushed out an album of covers in a month, but the more she dove into it the more potential she saw for it and the more she wants to do with it!
 
I definitely think this is going to end up being more than just ‘a digital’ as she called it and it’s going to be a bigger release! And I’m completely okay with waiting, I laughed when she mentioned this being released on Christmas and the day coming and going with no word from her is on brand 

we aren’t starving! We got Violet audio book in July and the book in September, she’s still working hard  

that’s what I think too!!

lmao
She should've announced cocc's music video + preorder today with a caption like "couldnt finished the standards album on time but here's a little something for you guys, merry Christmas" but of course that is too much to ask 
Honestly though I don't care, we know how she is, I mean.... We should just accept it and move on. 

I think this might end up getting the Violet treatment. I feel like it’s going to come a few months after COTCC with a proper vinyl/cassette/CD/digital release (that is, if it still doesn’t come before COTCC). I don’t think anyone was expecting Violet to be pushed as a major release until she launched the pre-order in July, so I expect the delay of this record to result in something similar!

this has nothing to do with this album but since it’s not coming I guess that’s ok. The other woman is her best album cover we been knew. That’s all I wanna say. 

I know we shit talk her for ‘ruining’ BAR by reworking it and putting it on NFR, but I think the demo we got was a super super early version, and she ‘ruined’ it way before NFR. 
 
In this video during the LFL era, when she talks about ‘Architecture’ she mentions both Topanga and Malibu. In the demo version we got (which was what we assumed she was talking about, it’s the only version we had) she doesn’t mention Malibu or Topanga, but in the version we got on NFR we do! (Topangas hot tonight. We play the eagles down in Malibu)
 
I also LOL at the fact that she says “Architecute I talked about that one so much!” But she literally didn’t say a word about it. It got leaked as BAR and Shazam started recognizing it and called it Architecture..She didn’t say anything about it herself 
 
 

mastering means when the song was done done done. They may have been working on the songs for a little while. Like HIAB..it wasn’t done until June of ‘18 but it was the first one she teased in February (?). Also HTD, we got the first look at that one around October of ‘18 but they kept working on it until January ‘19. So it’s very possible Love Song was the first one they did together, but they kept working on it until August   
 
and that’s very possible because we know how long Lana can hold onto a song

That’s super interesting!! So FIILY and DT were the only ones she worked on after tweeting in March of 19 that “the record is done but who knows when it’ll come out” maybe there was pressure to have a ‘radio’ song date all!
 
bartender is N/A but that one and TNBAR were done *before* Norman, because she talked about Bartender saying it was ‘weird’ and ‘didn’t have a place yet’

I personally feel atm it really doesn't matter if this covers album ever appears or not. We have COCC literally round the corner, which I'm more invested in. Plus I feel like IF AS&C does exist it would be either a hit or miss mess. She either delivers a great cover with her own twist that works extremely well (Chelsea Hotel, Doin Time) or butchers them (Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood, The Other Woman) She's never been consistent
