I bursted out laughing when she posted the initial teaser. Those vocals were SHAKY!

I’ll never understand the Arcadia hate (aside from her questionable vocals). A highlight on Blue Banisters which is a mixtape and not an official part of Lana’s discography ✨ Excluding the mixtape, here are my post-2019 Lana singles rankings: White Dress > COTCC > A&W > Tunnel > LMLYLAW

On behalf of Lanaboards we agree with you and support you ✨

I knew you’d get it 😌 and thanks for expanding on my thought in a more coherent way lol. It really is a song with many many layers. I would love to hear what you think about the Jimmy segment and its purpose in the song. I for one don’t think it’s a callback to Jim or anything like that, but more of a “let’s dance the pain away” kinda thing.

You’re probably right but let me be delusional

I wonder how many vinyl sales she has at this point. I’m thinking 50k in the US, maybe more honestly 😳

Neil is such a stan we love him.

OU her team is working overtime to secure a good first week. Damn 👏👏👏

See I get that but this line follows “Do you really think I give a damn what I do after years of just hearing them talking” so I think it can be interpreted in multiple ways. I.e. to serve the American Whore aspect of the song, but also as a response to her critics. In my opinion.

It’s almost as if lyrics contain layers and multiple meanings. But anyways.

“I say I live in Rosemead really I’m at the Ramada / It doesn’t really matter, doesn’t really really matter” I wonder if this line is a response to the media’s perception that she fabricated her come up. In the sense that she doesn’t necessarily “owe” her detractors the truth, and if she contradicts herself or “censors” herself it doesn’t really matter to her because she doesn’t owe anyone anything. AND when she is vulnerable and truthful, ie her honest thoughts on feminism, it isn’t received well anyway. I know it also serves to support the theme of the song, but this is how I interpret it.

Contemplating where/how I will take my first listen of this album ✨ what are y’all’s plans?

The best songs on LFL are toward the end.

It’ll probably leak early, but leaks aren’t as harmful as you think they are. Casual fans rarely seek them out, and hardcore fans will stream the album regardless. She’s had albums leak every cycle and has still sold well (excluding Blue Tankisters we don’t talk about her).

I was curious damn. Any freaking ways.

I think this’ll be the first album where I don’t listen to the inevitable leak. It just spoils the listening experience imo, to each their own obviously but it’s more fun to enjoy it with the rest of the world in its intended quality.

I was confused by your comment is all because I never implied that their ranking would impact mine whatsoever.

A&W possibly reaching 20M streams in 2 weeks is insane. I just hope it has staying power, Tunnel’s success was very frontloaded.

? Oh interesting!

Interesting. Did insiders like these songs/rank them highly?

Is A&W the only upbeat song on the album? I haven’t been keeping up with insiders.

“Don’t Forget” was very forgettable. Sad.

Actually genuinely excited for this era. I haven’t felt this way since NFR. Even if the music is meh, it’s fun to see her out and about.
