bel air rose

Me talking about half of blue banisters

Omg I do love these lyrics even if they're fake, atleast sierramadre is creative 

Mike Dean could have been one of the best things happened to Lana but I still remember having second hand embarrassment over fans spamming him to "fix" the ending of WFWF.

to me he seems like the hard on the outside soft on the inside kinda guy, and judging by the microscopic peek we have into their relationship, i really think they have this weird but attractive chemistry between them

im crying are they in a high school gym or community gym or what 

i KNOW it’s big I know it

Okay he's definitely the hottest guy she has been with in awhile 
 

the photos are gorgeous
the lyrics are great
the vibes are on point
 
let me remain positive this is me staying positive

when her meditative automatic writing produces an off to the races type track 

Our first official pre-release without a fake insider going on and on (and ooooon) about stuff that isn't true  This isn't an invitation for someone else to start doing that

IM CRYING THE MAGAZINE COVER IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING OH WOW WERE GETTING OUR OLD, NANCY O LANA BACK 

i love what she says about beauty in the w mag interview, and how it can invite understanding  i say minimalism is on its way OUT, and glam rock and baroque orchestra are back

if we’re getting honeymoon 2.0 i will collapse

THIS INTERVIEW WAS EVERYTHING. 
 
Her mentioning Swan Song as the song that makes her cry is very very very telling.

I get the feeling she's been very inspired by Honeymoon lately. The last post on her main was from the HBTB music video, she returned on her Honeymoon account, she sang God Knows I've Tried in Italy (she did also sing BTD songs, but only with fans, this was the one time we know of where she chose one song to sing of her own accord), and she mentioned Honeymoon several times in the W Mag interview. Not sure what this means/how it relates to her new sound or lyrics, but those are my thoughts. 

my heart wouldnt have been able to take a controversial album… we dont need anymore controversy  especially when all the hate is old news at this point

Oh the album is conversational not controversial

i feel like honeymoon's production, if lyrical content, must influence this album as she seems to be thinking about that album a lot recently. and i'm really excited about this meditative automatic singing and writing style - i just know she's going to whisk us away  

Jack really thought he got his job back huh 

A wordy and angry album with the aesthetic of the W magazine shoot would be right up my alley tbh 

HI YALL 

when the jack conversation continues over to this thread lmao
 
but in all seriousness i’m still excited as it’s a lana album after all and i’m interested what she means by “angry”

Well everyone… the time has come.
 
Welcome to the LDR9 Pre-Pre-Release Thread - Annual Discussion & Meltdown!
 
Lana Del Rey has revealed to W Magazine that a new, still untitled album is in the works.
"I’ve been practicing meditative automatic singing, where I don’t filter anything. I’ll just sing whatever comes to mind into my Voice Notes app. It’s not perfect, obviously. There are pauses, and I stumble. But I’ve been sending those really raw-sounding files to a composer, Drew Erickson, and he’ll add an orchestra beneath the words, matching each syllable with music and adding reverb to my voice. For this new music, it’s more just like: I’m angry. The songs are very conversational. For the first song, I pressed record and sang, “When I look back, tracing fingertips over plastic bags, I think I wish I could extrapolate some small intention or maybe get your attention for a minute or two.” It’s a very wordy album."
