Cherry Blossom

even if it's a recycled mess, I want the Blue Banisters video 

Isn't it amazing when someone puts actual effort into an era? It makes a lot of difference. It's clear that she's not willing to play the industry game by any means anymore and it's admirable she's sticking to that attitude (as opposed to someone like Lorde who sings about hating California and wanting to be in the wilderness and yet she's in every talk show, doing magazine covers, doing a week-run of performances for James fucking Corden, etc - maybe to compensate the lack of quality of her latest output?). However, she changed the profile pictures of every social media account, put out a music video with an actual concept, did an amazing photoshoot with Neil to complement the album aesthetically speakinh and further expand the universe of Blue Banisters... like, this is the Lana we fell in love with: someone who's passionate about her work and shares it with the world with confidence and attention to detail.
 
Makes me wonder what went wrong with Chemtrails for her. It's clear she wanted to release it earlier but maybe the delays due to the pandemic made her lose sight of her vision halfway through... hence the lack of promotion and the apparent lack of interest as well.

just can't understand why she didn't include Fine China, it would fit perfectly with other songs and all that "telling my own story" shit

Not Olivera Domingo 
 
Anyway, pretty much all of this + COCC was released just 5/6 months ago... it's not like she took a 4 years hiatus and just dropped her come back single!
She's releasing music non-stop since last october (LMLYLAW, Summertime Gerswhin Version, COCC single + album, BB, TB and WW) doing literally 0 promo, the lack of hype from the gp is quite predictable 

I mean, that may make sense if Chemtrails wasn’t her best reviewed album of her career and a chart success. Wasn’t it her 5th number 1 album in the Uk tied with Celine Dion? This was all after the events of last year.

Arcadia isn’t really a high buzz track surely? It’s slow, it’s very much what we have seen from her before, the video is basic (though i like it). It will reach the audience that knows she’s doing music but aside from that i can’t imagine it will have cross over appeal.

The song is getting good reviews and the album will no doubt do well.
She’s into a 10 year career very soon, she won’t exactly be catching the same hype she used to. She’s not too far from turning 40 too! She’s 37 next year, she’s not really on younger audiences lips nowadays, they have that Olivera Domingo or whatever it’s called person now.

Lana is an album artist pretty much, with the occasional video/song “taking off”. It’s how most long term careers go pretty much. I wouldn’t invest too much worry into it.

Remember when Tex and Mex were just babies? They're teenagers in dog years now. So cute.
 
 

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PICTURE

she really came for her ex, the critics, and america with Arcadia

I just realised we are getting both the screaming on Dealer and the vocal guitar solo from Living Legend on the same album. Do you think we'll get other vocal suprises on the album ? 
 
 
 
I agree about The Next Best American Record, I was very disappointed by the new version. I would have preferred a new instrumental that would be more fitting to NFR and no change of lyrics. In contrary, I personally I love how she turned her pain from the original Beautiful People into hopefullness in the final one. 

I love how she articulates words during the second verse of Arcadia. It sounds so sweet and fragile.. and also that facial expression, hands that are close face.. almost like she wants to be held by someone. Im tearing up every time I hear/watch that part.  And all of you who say that MV is bad go wash your eyes with H2SO4. Thank you. 

The struggle is real 
 
41 days 11 hours 3 minutes and 1 second to the end of our lives as we know them 

Reliable insiders are confirming that the album after this one will be called Honeymoon  everybody move!!

you better because we are gonna have it for the next 10 years and 5 albums

I NEED THIS ADORABLE PICTURE IN UHQ SO I CAN PLASTER IT ALL OVER MY HOUSE 

good morning soldiers we are one day closer to Black Bathing Suit, Dealer, Violets For Roses, Beautiful and Sweet Carolina 
lana already has a few projects on the way, and she seems very inspired lately. i don’t think we have to worry about a long silence for a while
