What a surprise. From the first notes with the background singers I knew I would love it. It immediately gave me Thunder vibes. I think they are so complementary with her voice. Maybe part of the cover album is some of the covers she did with the Last Shadow Puppets during that period.
The higher register of her voice fits the Jazz aesthetics so much better than the her more somber one (wich I absolutely love on her songs, but I love the change for that projet). She seems to be willing to explore her range more on her recent covers. I wonder if this will show on COCC or if she only allows to get outside of her aesthetics because it's covers.
The musiciens, the production, everything is on point. I would love to see more of that on COCC.
I also love how this video is really carefree and she doesn't seem to take herself seriously (I mean with Chuck playing a fake instrument). She really seems happy. More than she've ever been. She looks great.
I love how she's covering the original song that inspired the other cover she did (that's probably the reason why she calls it the Gershing version). It's suits Lana's self referential lyrics habits. Maybe she could do a mashup on next tour.

FKA Twigs x SOPHIE - Psalms 

see what happens when you put chuck in the front of the camera not behind the camera

I think she's very talented. 
I absolutely adore Wounded Rhymes and the Mark Roson collab.  I think most of her other work has some great strength and as well as weaknesses.
 
My ranking :
 
1. Wounded Rhymes
I think it's an album that sounds really unique yet cohesive and accessible. I think she found her best balance here between Youth Novels' very pop and very experimental sound and breathy vocals, and I Never Learn's overdramatic sound and vocals.
 
2. I Never Learn
I think that album is really emotional. I love it but I've got to be in the mood for it (sometimes the overdramatic sound, lyrics and vocals are too much for me. And that's coming from a Lana Del Rey fan.). My favorite track is Gunshot, it really strikes a chord. And I love how the music video was like a fuck you to the Peugeot commercial it was used for. 
 
3. Liv
I don't know what happened to that super band she formed with Andrew Wyatt and friends. I liked the indie sound and seemingly more careless creating process. They released no album and they didn't even bother collecting the 4 singles as an EP but in my mind it is some kind of Likke Li EP and Era.
 
4. So Sad Sexy 
I think that the sound worked a lot for some songs like the sophisticated Hard Rain that was really surprising and the emotional So Sad So Sexy . It gets tiring for more uninteresting songs like Jaguar in the air.
I think the tracklist and the album title sounds very Lana-ish. I mean So Sad So Sexy. It reminds me of seing the tracklist for Ultraviolence for the first time and thinking it was fake. Did anyone else get that feeling ? 
 
5. Youth Novels
This album was a real surprise when it got released. I think she struck me as a very unique pop artist. I think it gets complicated to listen to the whole album at once. Dance, Dance Dance is one of my favorite songs to sing along to and to dance to. It's so simple yet effective. And I love the fragility and childlike quality of her vocals here.
 
I need more listen to that new song to have a proper opinion.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

I mixed the L4L BR demo with the official instrumental and lemme say:

 

Never thought I could say that one day 
 
How the leakers feed us better for cocctober than Lana. 
It's the first time I listen to a new Lana single only once before listening to 2 dozen other tracks (I discovered it just at the same time as 14 new demos and the 18 paradise tour reworks). 
 
From first listen I think it's a great song but definitely not one that gets me more exited for the album. It doesn't have an interesting song structure and lyrics or surprising new sound, or single-worth catchyness like respectly Mariner Appartment Complex, West Coast and Love did.
I need more listen tough because I think the harmonies and the way that it isn't as linear as it seems shows great potential. 

the song is perfectly fine but lacks wow factor for me. maybe it's a grower tho, that was def the case for hope & a couple others off NFR, so we'll see.
 
the cover, tho. it screams ~graphic design is my passion~ sorry to say. i know the single covers have been, um, effortless for a while now but this one's the worst of them all; i mean, the photo copy/paste & amateurish fade into the dark background, the typography, the terrible composition... anyWAY.
 
that designer on ig ain't shit tho. he's right, sure, but that could've been sent via DM if his intentions were that honest. that's just plain petty shade.

I just remembered that post on her Honeymoon account where she writes about pink champagne and purple rain.
Was that taken from an early poem? Or a song that didn't make it on the album?
In any case she re-used that phrase on LMLYLAW now.
 

So true  She wouldn't be able to cary the vision otherwise.

we all know she aint releasing this until she learns capoeira fighting, glass blowing, advanced aerial silk, and mastering ice skating to be able to fully realize the vision in about 4 years 

The Sad Say video is amazing. As a lot of you said, we actually hear more of Mirrored heart but it's OK, it's a real peace of art. 
I hardly imagine it being played on TV to promote the album tough, as we don't hear much of the song.
 
She definitely has the skills to act on some sci-fi/action movie. Would love to have her on some of the Wachowski sisters movies. What about Matrix 4 ? 
 
As for the Mixtape turned into a Beast of an the album... CAN'T WAIT.
