The lyrics are "official" as in they come from her label but they are just transcribed by an intern and sent to the press, they aren't from Lana herself and not necessarily accurate.

Twitter users making things up for attention 

Yeah, the Judah Smith Interlude’s instrumentation is very unsettling and eerie according to BOZ. I’m actually very excited about it. It feels like the natural continuation of the darkness of A&W. He loves the Jon Batiste Interlude. Apparently it’s very wild and heavy on electric guitars! Both interludes will be divisive - Kintsugi dislikes them, lol! -, but I’m glad she’s not playing it safe. What intrigues me the most is that both insiders told us that the album is
sonically adventurous and unexpected and that there will be something for everyone. The track rankings will be all over the place, but it’ll be the sign of a great diverse album. 
 
 

Given that both insiders told us that the second half of the album is stronger than the first one and yet we’ve already been gagged by tracks 2 and 4, I think that we’re going to get a truly great record.
 
So many tracks have been highlighted by them: The Grants (full and gorgeous), Candy Necklace (massive), Kintsugi (best song of all-time according to our favourite insider), Fingertips (stunner), Paris, Texas (delicate highlight), Grandfather (BOZ’s favourite), Let The Light In (singled out by both insiders), Fishtail (the potential fan favourite of the album), Peppers (a slutty vibey bop apparently), Taco Truck (an outro for the books). Even Sweet is praised for its beautiful strings, Kintsugi thinks that Margaret is actually great, and BOZ adores the instrumentation on both interludes. 
 
This album is shaping up to be one of the most important works in Lana’s career. 
 

another thought i keep having is, the only color i associate with AW is black. like there's no glimpse of something light and bright at all. maybe that's what lana meant when she said there's no room for colors 

2,401,100 filtered streams?! The track surpassed Ocean Blvd’s second day and NFR’s first day streams! A 7-minute track with zero playlisting and promo did that. This is insane! I - 
 

This song doing good feels right. Wasn't expecting that though, cause it's not an easy tik tok listen.
Feels like this album can become another big moment in her career, first one since NFR.

imagine if she actually promoted it

The vocal melodies from the first part are INESCAPABLE!! Like why am I in physics class singing to myself “ I’m a princesss I’m divisive, ask me why why I’m like this”

Even more astounding
  Spoiler with text in case embedding doesn't work:  
 

I just hope The Grants is good because I can forgive a basic track here and there but the album opener needs to have impact. Like white dress literally saved COTCC.

I actually wish the song was longer
Can we get a 15-minute-long Cedric Gervais remix

Listening to "Jimmy" at night is kinda scary

JIMMY ONLY LOVE ME WHEN HE WANNA GET HIGH 
 

 
 

What do u guys think? <3

I’ve recently rediscovered the joy in doing this. To quote Courtney Love at Paris Fashion Week, “stay the fuck offline.” And she’s so right, because doing just that really lets you enjoy things in a completely unaffected way, free of the dissenting opinions and preconceptions that really contribute to the “white noise” around the music.  

Not you making me think it was up on the store...

OK but the arrangement of the “American Whore” part of A&W reminded me so much of Nirvana’s MTV Unplugged special on first listen. I would LOVE if there was more of this stripped-down grunge sound on the rest of the album. 

Mods pls don't move lyric gate to the random thread  I want to log on lanaboards.com when I'm at the nursing home to read this back and laugh my old ass off

Who was the user who made a pre-release thread bingo card??? Bet you didn't see "teenager emailing spotify because of fake lyrics" coming 

my neighbors, hearing A&W starting to play for the 30th time of the day 
 

If you get exposed for trolling at least own it and troll some more  can’t respect a troll who backtracks the second they get exposed this is Very embarrassing for you omg

Ivory Almonds?

ivory almond you will be dealt with
