i loveeee the melody and lyrics and chords and almost everything about it. the vocal production is beautiful. im not crazy about the drums in it though. other than that, i really enjoy it for the most part

Just now, Jared said:Candy Necklace is a copy and paste, by the numbers, low effort snooze fest. It sounds like a discarded demo from 2012, so it's not a surprise that the fans like it so much. But the fact that she went into the studio with Jon Batiste and came out with this is hilarious.
boy shut up

candy necklace makes me feel like im in a classic gothic romance novel. it’s giving rebecca. it’s giving lurking around a dark castle with a huge candlestick in a long nightgown at night.

personally, i love both interludes on the album. they add such an interesting layer to the songs. also im listening to the album for the first time with wired earbuds instead of my airpods or on vinyl- and it sounds so much better and clearer. ive noticed so much more little details in the music i’ve missed the first couple times around.

now that i’ve had time, heres my (first) ranking. i love all of these songs, genuinely. and i think this is the first time ive had a completely no-skip album from her (i skip tnbar sometimes on nfr which is my fav from her though i don’t consider it a bad song). i won’t rank the interludes because there’s really no point. also my top 3 are kinda interchangeable and this was incredibly difficult to rank.

“Lana doesn’t care about critical reception anymore” Perched at 4am in the morning to read reviews. Now has a literal link on her Instagram bio.
well merch and vinyl is more than likely handled by her team and not her. as for reviews, she’s happy people like it? that doesn’t mean that she cares when other people don’t.
also, have you ever made a single positive contribution to this thread? or do you simply exist here to take up space and run your mouth? i would say it’s getting old, but it’s been well past that point for months now.

Just now, BartenderDeco said:someone get ben to nominate her for the alt categories
she probably would’ve had at least 5 if he did
the grammys put the submissions in whatever category they think the album belongs in though, so it won’t really matter what category they submit her into.

what are u talking about
-
when will y’all learn that lana does not care anymore about either charts or critical reception? she’s moved on from that and i really don’t know why everyone on here is so invested in the numbers the album is doing. she made this for us. not for other people. most importantly and most obviously though, she made this album for her. music is art and not just a job to her. i swear some of you don’t even listen to the lyrics because if you did youd understand that she has always been more interested in the art than in the money. get a life, go outside, touch some grass, and enjoy this album. or don’t. it’s that’s simple.

okay so i have finally had time to sit with fingertips and read all the lyrics.
this might be her saddest song to date. i understand why some may not like it. but i personally think it’s one of her most revealing and moving songs ever. it’s up there with the grants. this album really sums up my life and headspace right now. not really knowing what’s going to happen to me in the future, trying to live in the moment, trying to grieve, trying to have fun, trying to make sense of it all, trying to figure out what went wrong. it feels like she’s holding up a mirror to me, and i really needed to hear a lot of these songs when i did.
