Finished rereading The Bell Jar and about to pick back up on The Song of Achilles—always open for new book suggestions if anyone has any!

not trying to distract from the current discourse but I just realized Woman=LMLYLAW—honestly assumed Woman was an unreleased track I hadn’t heard anyways Woman has aged like wine. Is it my favorite single? No, but it’s really honest emotional expression & will probably be a pleasant intermission from the heavier topics on COCC

That makes sense, and I completely agree! As a side-note, I’m like 10x more hyped for Dance Till We Die and For Free now—referring to them as “outstanding” and “gorgeous” respectively means a lot coming from Mojo!

I wish I knew why Mojo gave COCC an 80 and NFR a 100 (if I remember correctly)! I know I’ll love the record either way, but I’m curious what they felt was different?

imagining the chemtrails drum outro leading into this unreleased track...much to think about

Lana’s description of this track reminds me so much of this line from Coachella: “Doesn't take a genius to know what you've got goin', and to Not wanna lose it 'cause they lost their minds.”

Thank you so much for taking the time to attach these performances! I honestly kinda enjoy that she replaces the line with whatever she’s feeling at the moment!

Am I the only one who physically cannot hear Lana say “sun” in Florida Kilos at 1:26? It’s always sounded like she’s saying “soon” or “zoom” to me lol

OMG. The way I thought she was saying, “Blue ribbon on ice.” This makes way more sense!!

FIILY vs Body Electric

this old ass grainy tumblr gif triggers something inside me lmao

Sad Girl vs PWYC

I’m really curious what the vocals on White Dress will sound like given that Lana described them as “not great.” Does she mean it’s pitchy or just not super polished & vulnerable? I’m definitely hoping for the latter, but I have a good feeling about it regardless Also, I’m so hyped for Dark But Just A Game now; referencing Ginsberg’s work is a nice nod to her love of beat poetry, and her description of it makes me think it’ll be one of the record’s best tracks

honestly? I really like the shoot! My only pet peeve is that they could have made the hair fall in front of her face a bit more naturally in the last photo, but I have no complains otherwise lol

where is the “I thought the chicken was lovely” gif when you need it anyways to stay on topic, do y’all think we’ll get another video after White Dress? I could see her recycling the alleged footage from Yosemite but am unsure tbh

Imagine COCC is released & a week later she gets on the Honeymoon Insta account & posts something really cryptic about LDR8 like, “Honeymoon still breathes, but paradise is lost,” with a brief snippet of Dealer

Bartender vs Velvet Crowbar

WAIT YES THIS! This is the closest thing I’ve seen that describes how I imagine Yosemite. I’m really hoping for Mazzy Star vibes

I see what you’re saying! I more just mean the verses with the simple plucking and vocal-heavy parts tbh. The pre-chorus & chorus are the opposite of what I’m expecting though lol

I’ve always imagined them to be similar in terms of acousticness, but I almost feel like Yosemite will be...lighter? Almost like TNC, but even that seems a little heavy for how I imagined Yosemite (if that makes any sense lol)

Well, initially TNBAR was a bitter demo about a lover choosing fame over her, and Yosemite was described as an acceptance of it (hence “We did it for fun”). I think this explains the Yin & Yang comparison. Considering this, I think the themes of Yosemite will be more similar to the released TNBAR. Production-wise, I think Yosemite will be decently similar to TNBAR.

ohh gotcha!! Either way, her recent visuals seem to point to something darker and grungier. After her posting the Women who Run with the Wolves references and seeing its relationship to COCC, I definitely think her posts are often indirect clues about her headspace for the next record!

I definitely agree that Dealer is a potential direction for LDR8!! Also, how do we know it’s one of 4? I feel like I missed something

Religion Vs Bel Air

interstellar (the movie)
