yosemite is the only reason i love it

Lana looooves ruining a good song with occasional random cringe lyrics doesn't she... she's just so silly.

WHAT THE HELL is the vibe of the album at this point?????? Depressed christian hoe? whatever it is mother's taking us to church tonight
 

Years from now, when Lana has 30 albums, and we look back, COCC & BB will be regarded as her "worst", more so BB, with COCC having a cult following, similar to HM, but not as strong. They will be looked at as her two most divisive albums ever. Still, Lana's worst is better than some girls best. She's incapable of making truly "bad" music. A songstress supreme

the MAC lyrics became v cringey to me over time- when it came out ('18)/thru NFR era('19) it was one of my most played Lana tracks but now I very rarely play it & when I do it's just for the soundscape or bc I'm listening on vinyl tbh. 
 
"I'm the bolt/board, the lightning, the thunder, kinda girl who's gonna make you wonder who you are & who you've been"
as well as " They mistook my kindness for weakness, I fucked up I know that but Jesus, can't a girl just do the best she can?"
& "catch a wave & take in the sweetness, think about it- the darkness, the deepness- all the things that make me who i am" too slightly
make me go  . like i get what she's saying, i just wish she didn't say it like that. maybe its too, for lack of a better word, self-indulgent for me now or something?
 
I guess that's just a circumstance of growing up tho, some music stays behind.. 15&16 y/o me are still v grateful for it 

I still dont understand the hysteria over Venice bitch

A&W > venice bitch

Keyword: lyrically.

I feel the opposite. Listening over and over to A&W, I've come to the conclusion that Lana has for the greater part of her released material been writing just about herself. I don't mean that the songs are true stories of her life, I mean that she has emotionally only been expressing her own feelings, and not thinking about whether the listener can relate. (On that, she's on the right track, because many listeners are so shallow, I've heard reactors/reviewers say things like "I can't relate to this song because I've never been to LA." If that was what I was dealing with as an artist, I'd ignore everyone else as well.)
I think with Lust For Life, she tried to universalise and make her songs about the general condition - that's what she actually meant when she talked about doing 'one for the fans'. Even then, a big part of the record was entirely about her, but fans thought she mean that she was going to go back to doing non stop bops, and were disappointed with the record. Since then, she's become more and more insular in her writing (NFR, Violet, Chemtrails, BB), and is not trying to write about the general human condition, except where it coincides with her own life. The two singles from this album show no sign at all of diverging from this.

I like A&W, but to me it's not that memorable... Like I don't have it stuck in my head iykwym. The title track on the other hand i can't get out of my head and I do believe it's the superior single. However, reading everyone's posts here this seems to be an unpopular opinion for some reason?

Which track do we think is Dragonslayer renamed? 

“dont tell me to be glad when im sad… i really hate that” are some of lanas worst lyrics

kinda glad her song was just on the credits and not on any of this way-too-normalized simulated child porn crap  no offence to fans of the show

Why do you think a lower/higher than the artists natural voice is inauthentic? People can sing however they want. The only inauthentic example I can think of is Britney since she always sang in the same tone. Maybe the label forced Lana but she kept the deeper voice for years after BTD. Plus Lana sang both low and high in BTD and spoke normally, it wasn't like she wad lying about her voice. Is Mariah Carey inauthentic for singing extremely high compared to her natural lower voice? 

That's some taste.
 
 
This feel truly unpopular: Sweet Carolina isn't really clicking with me, the way it seems to do with everyone else on here 

As much as I love singer/songwriter Lana I do want more good surface level pretty songs if that makes sense. Songs that I can twirl around to on sunny day at the beach without being like oh this song is about childhood trauma or something like Shades of Cool, WC, Venice, Dealer, etc. I don’t even mean surface level in a bad way, I think a good artist has a balance between surface level and singer/songwriter-esque stuff, I feel like she’s been on the latter side for a while though 

"honeymoon" is one of her best tracks & it's so underrated

Sveta deserves an award for marrying Hunter

One of the most uninspired songs she's ever come with, imo. Sounds as if somebody forced her to write and record something that sounded rockish at first hour in the morning when she wasn't still fully awake.

i literally don't understand how million dollar man is the least streamed song on BTD, it's literally in the top 5 of the album. the least streamed song should've been TIWMUG aka her worst closer
the other woman is hated for no reason IMO it's one of her best covers

Lana's been going downhill for me since LFL. I only like a few songs on NFR, and COCC and BB are un-listenable to me, like nails on a chalkboard. I really wish I could get into her new stuff but I just cannot.
