I hope she also wins the categories she is not nominated for. I’m expecting at least 7 Grammys -

Manifesting QFTC2 at her Grammy acceptance speech because I live for the chaos -

Did You Know … is a beautiful but intense album — like having a therapy session on a Californian beach. But what comes next for her? “I’m tired now,” Del Rey admits. “So keeping it simple is probably the way that it’s going to go. I dug around a lot writing this [album] and don’t think I have to go there again.” As such, she has plans to write an album of standards — classic, simple songs that could reach even more people than she does now. A bit like the gorgeous, piano-led cover of Take Me Home, Country Roads by John Denver that she released on Friday, or the Elvis Presley version of Unchained Melody that she recorded at Graceland for a Christmas TV show.

Many pop stars — Bowie! Elton! Eminem! — reinvent themselves, but purists fell over each to denounce the new-look Del Rey as a fraud, an industry construct and fake feminist. This criticism got to her. “I will never sing again,” she laments in Swan Song, released four years after the giddy heights of Video Games.“When I hear Swan Song now I think, ‘Oh girl, they brought you to that point. That sucks for you,’” Del Rey says with a sigh. “I get dressed up for my shows while some folks don’t. For some reason that was a problem. I had books thrown at me in San Francisco by liberal female groups. I’ve been punched in the face in Brooklyn. Ten years ago, mentally I badly needed some beauty to come out of the chaos. For something to make sense.” She sighs again. “I’ve been on guard for so long.”

Lana Del Rey’s great-uncle Dick was so dazed the night before he died that he accidentally grabbed the singer’s wrist and coughed into her hand. “I just cried,” she recalls in her soft, airy American twang.She was at his home at a vigil alongside 30 members of her extended family. “I shouldn’t have been the one crying,” she says. “The people around me were his children — I’m just this star who walked in.” Then suddenly everyone started singing the old folk song Froggy Went a-Courtin’ — once covered by Bob Dylan — in a 13-part harmony. “It was a pivotal moment because I realised that they could sing as well as I do, but I just happen to be the one who made it. That was the missing piece I needed. I felt part of a very wide network, a grain of sand on the beach.” -
It’s a big mistake on their part not to let people know about this issue. And why is Ben writing “pls” twice

I fear her new post kinda indicates that releasing Country Roads is just her being random and wanting to put out this song because she was feeling some type of way.

"American Standards & Classics" Cover Album - Pre-Pre-Release Thread
Let the Light In replied to Elle's topic in New Releases
Well if we look from the bright side, if she releases a cover every 3 years before Christmas, we will have enough songs to create our own covers album by 2047. -
I feel like I already signed up for this twice and questioning if I should sign up again. Honestly the whole website is a mess.

Do we have to go through this trauma over and over again? Jesus fucking Christ…

Honestly I’ve been thinking how beautiful it would be if album ended with this instead of For Free.

I know it's an old English folk song but I would DIE if she released studio version of full Scarborough Fair cover. -

Does Shazamming or AHA-musicing lead to any crumb of info (about her covers album that is going to be released on Dec 22nd?) -
