I would sacrifice my younger brother for another West Coast moment. I’ll never forget the pure euphoria of the chorus hitting for the first time.

Ya think?

not my twitter mutuals freaking out because they think cocc won't get acclaim, like who honestly cares, it only matters if we like the music (lfl has a better score on metacritic than uv - that speaks for itself)

THEY CALLED ME OUT JEJDKSKKSKS
i feel famous

Same thought process, except in my mind WHF is more about diamonds/white heat than stars (although there's an obvious correlation there). But it all refers to a high level of emotional intensity, and beginnings and endings, if you like.
 
I personally prefer WHF as an album title but given recent events, I understand why she changed it.
 
Imagine if, in Question for the Culture, she'd said, "I'll be elaborating upon all of this and more in my upcoming album, WHITE HOT FOREVER".
 

when are we going to start getting fake twitter insider lyrics? a milestone for every new era
 
in your cock in your cockpit

if it does actually end up dropping sept. 5th i really hope nothing leaks cuz i don't have any self control whatsoever and i wanna dive into this album without hearing a thing

I feel like cocc has become a conspiracy theory itself and we're a bunch of crazy conspiracy theorists...

Hi yall I'm new to this site but I just wanted to let yall know that I'm so excited for this album to come out!!

true she ruins almost everything that she spends too much time working on

imo, Chemtrails Over The Country Club is just using the “camp” aspect attributed to NFR! and taking it to an extreme, honestly this could be like as good as Honeymoon & UV.
 
It’s always the albums she spends the least time on that turn out to be her best, she has less time to second guess herself and give in to third party opinions

yeah the music wasn’t bad, even Lana said she’s proud of it and would remaster/rerelease it.  
I just think it’s interesting/strange how certain fans act like that girl is the “real her” and Lana Del Rey is some illusion created by her and her record label. Or they talk about Lizzy and Lana as if they’re two separate people lol.
 
Like nah that’s her, just younger and with fried hair lol.
 
Anyways this is off topic, I’m just ~musing~
exactly!! I think that’s who she was when she was 24 years old, but like...that was ten years ago lol.  
Idek I’ve just seen some people on twitter saying like “oh the real her is finally coming back!!” when I feel like she’s never really been untrue about who/what she is.

I like Lizzy’s look and aesthetic, but I much prefer Lana’s.
 
Although I was thinking the other day, if ‘Lana Del Rey’ never came to exist (as in BTD up to now) and one day I randomly stumbled upon the AKA album from some random girl named Lizzy Grant who released 1 flop album then dipped, it would still be in my fave top 5 albums of all time. That album is amazing to me even without the Lana connection

Aaaagh why are we discussing the title on page 409. Sundays really are boring

Yes. I love that title too, just like White Hot Forever. They both have advantages. While Chemtrails Over the Country Club is more pictorial, White Hot Forever sounds more relaxed and it's less try-hard(?) imo

Nah it slaps. But from a Culture perspective she really dodged a bullet haha

I kind of agree, but please don't forget the hype NFR has gotten across all demographics. Sooo many straight guys listened to it and loved it, it was in so many "best albums of the year" (I think even decade?) lists and it has been more popular on social media than any of her albums before. Last year it was cool to be an NFR fan. I think that album has actually helped her get recognized in other than her normal demographics, even though her older albums are still often dismissed as "boring". I truly believe that hype could carry on to COCC and many people outside the fanbase will be excited to hear it, but maybe the Question for the Culture made her uncool again, so you could still be right in the end. I guess we'll see in (hopefully) a month.
It's so beautiful imo, it would have been my favourite album title of hers. On an instagram poll 70% liked WHF better btw. I think it immediately gives you a feel for the album, whereas when I first heard Chemtrails Over the Country Club I rlly didn't have any clue at all what to expect.

Knowing her the title is Tulsa Jesus Freak - White Hot Forever

You're right but I guess it's our internet age. It's Sunday morning, almost 11:00 and I'm wearing yesterdays shirt trying to muster the energy to take a shower. Yet I still believe I know what's best for Lana!
 
We all have our delusions I guess.

I hate it when you all turn into managers. Realistically I don't care about the success of the album as long as I like it.

What I would really like is a validated release date. Validated by the record company and real promos that just say new album from LDR to be released on xx/xx/xxxx. No snippets or early releases just a count down to the release date. That would be exciting. As it is we can't depend on Lana's version of things and I don't want to see clips of her making cage free scrambled eggs while singing 30 seconds of a new song while a cat howls in the background.

I think we all misinterpreted what Lana meant by a surprise release. I don't think her intention was ever to drop an album like Beyonce, out of the blue. I always assumed she meant no promo cycle, no pre album singles etc. Like she's referenced the album a couple of times before she mentioned a "surprise" drop. I think she just meant it would be more low-key and kinda would just happen, rather than there be a build up to the release date.

I think it's a shame that most of the reviews for this album will be reviewing that dreaded Instagram letter rather than the actual album. Same thing happened with violet.

I disagree, Lana has a strong fan base that would support a surprise release. I feel like even for her casual fans a suprise wouldn't go unnoticed.
