the livestream was the best thing that happened in this era. I loved it so much. She seemed so happy and that makes me so happy.

Waking up to a post-release thread is something else. We did it kids!!!! -
Imma be honest I was one of the biggest COCC "haters". Not bc it's bad or anything but bc it was half-hearted. Obviously no one really cared enough to put more tracks on the album, cut 3-4 of the ones that are on the album and give it a cool cover. The overall package was underwhelming and I really didn't revisit the album after the first month. But it's been now prob over a week that I am listening to most of the album again and fell a bit in love with it. Don't get me wrong: it's prob Lana's weakest album but for other artists it would have been their magnum opus.It's more like an EP. The album has too many fillers and the production is lacklust on some of the tracks. I hate that wild at heart sounds like Hope & Let Me Love You.. sounds a bit like MAC - we have those songs already and these are just weak copies imo. Also Yosemite was so hyped and the song has the worst chorus on the album (the verses are amazing tho). Another problem for me is For Free. It's not a bad song but I just don't care. I never feel like playing the song. I also never could connect to White Dress but that's just me. This album also has some of her career highlights: Dark, Chemtrails, Tusla, Wander & Dance Till We Die. Most of those tracks are a shift in sound that I really appreciate and combined with the new vinyl re-release this album could get into my top 5 records released this year. Blue Banisters is coming for the top spot tho...

BTD: Off The Races and Lolita don't work for me at all. They sound more like Lizzy songs and don't work with the rest of the album. I'd also cut Lucky One's bc it's boring. UV: Guns and Roses obv. I'd def add Wild One and Filipside should have been on the standard edition. HM: Swan Song needs to go bc it caused so much drama and it's very boring. Also God Knows I Tried is kinda repetitive (cut the last minute or the whole song). I'd rather have Fine China on it and Big Eyes. LFL: Change should have been a three minute song or cut from the album and Groupie Love is kinda meh. Also TNBAR should have been on the album with the original lyrics and with the music video that was used awfully for White Mustang. NFR: How To Disappear should have been a piano ballad or cut. The christmas vibes don't work at all and I hate it. Also the outro from CG. It's too long and lazy. COCC: Let Me Love You Like A Woman obv.cut and most of the songs need an revamp with better production. Also the Chemtrails outro needs to be cut.

As long she doesn't scrap Happy Loner again I'm good. She didn't specify on what deluxe album the song would be hahaha

Also one more thing: I am kinda sad that Lana isn't doing bonus tracks anymore. It's crazy to think that UV was the last album that had bonus tracks. At least she's giving us 14 tracks with this release. Chemtrails really needed some bonus tracks (that aren't sleepy).
