I'm just thinking - that's not gonna do much. Venice bitch also premiered there, and mariner's, and chemtrails i think. But they didn't really have much success we need something bigger

probably 2 weeks from now. they're likely putting up billboards to promote the single, sorting out playlists, doing youtube seo, talking to bbc about premiering the track there, etc. i've lost hope that "soon" meant 1-2 days

Fun fact: Tough reel has 38.1 million views and counting. Soon it will exceed that "cheers" reel with riley k. and become the most watched ldr reel

Please God let it be Billie, and not Olivia or Katy. Even Taylor would be great - for the country vibes and some through-the-fucking-roof streaming numbers for Lasso.

It has a great beat, it's catchy, it's a little bop. Sure, it's repetitive and it's clear that they've looped some parts to extend it or not to reveal the entire song. But let's not dismiss a Lana bop that easily, por favor. They're so rare! I'm sure you'll have 10 other slow, acoustic, piano-driven songs on the record. Let us have this! haha

I'm kind of hoping for punchier, short titles. E.g., Honeymoon, Ultraviolence, Born to Die That's why Tough, Mirror and even Henry, Come on are all working for me. The Grandfarther, please stand on my shoulders etc was a cool phase, but we don't need more 20 word titles.

Well, until the single (f-ing drops), here's the full song from the concert, bridge and all. Warning: do not listen if you don't want to spoil it for yourself with bad quality. Only listen if you're desperate (like me): https://youtu.be/zHCO2vDjzS4?si=KV3yhlvKjoeGSQIe

Quavo had a live on ig i asked 5 times about tough as did many other ppl He ignored us excruciating

that's what I'm thinkin'. Maybe they know that, and that's why they want to tease it a bit more before it drops. Who knows, maybe even Fallon before the single drops. Maybe they're prepping some remixes. Maybe they're arranging for the song to be featured in a big movie trailer. Like, we never know. All that being said, they can still give us a god-damn release datem, motherfuckers

As much as I like Henry, I agree. We've got a 100 songs that are minimalist, acoustic and slow (Not all those who wander, Yayo, Looking for America, etc, etc.). But we only half a handful of bops across 10 albums. Tough and this new song is what's exciting about Lasso (if they're even on Lasso). So, to those praying for Henry to drop before Tough, please go re-listen to Chemtrails and BB and stop manifesting the wrong thing. Fankssss

Maybe the mv is still not really done. But i will allow this only if the MV eats as much as CN did

That, and she's relatable af. Meaning she talks to her fanbase, she's chatting to them online and offline, super present, just one of the people. She's a great marketer that said, her rollouts are nonsensical and pathetic, and that's where she fails both as an artist and a marketer. That and her lack of desire to do talk shows and tv gigs etc after being scarred on snl If she did just one fallon performance per album in the us, and one graham norton in the uk, she'd have a number 1 album each time

this 100% i wonder if pitchfork will list it in their best tracks. so far they only gave that "honor" to AW, Venice Bitch, Video Games, Love and the greatest. Zero of her collabs too. So, that's 5 songs in 13 years. I reckon Tough won't get it,, but the song will still be the biggest lana collab alongside snow and the weeknd stuff streaming wise. he's such a little useless

hey. i take offense at that. that's a great song. let's phrase it to say "this fandom really deserves an album full of jon batiste interludes"

nothing babe. i mean, everything but nothing. as fucking usual. lana and quavo performed the song live, the MV was played in the background, the song is shazam-able, it was teased twice on instagram, we know the lyrics because we've played it that many times, but the song is still not on spotify. and we still don't even know if it's his or hers, if it has anything to do with lassso. also, lana debuted another song that we have no clue about, but that also sounds fucking fire tough: https://imgur.com/5zVFmxa new song: https://x.com/decodemani/status/1804006938398613711?s=46

i mean, she first teased the single nearly two months ago. she just performed it live. it's her birthday. you can't really blame people for thinking that lana and her team are, well,.. normal. but i gues she wants to hype it up a bit more before she drops it. video teaser on ig next in july. then another teaser in august.

she definitely had some of that bbc

But i mean, we knew Ben was an idiot for over a decade now. let's just be happy he manages to book her concerts and press her vinyl. because, let's face it, that's the only thing he's being paid to do. everything else is a mess that he isn't exactly "working" on. he's more the yes man. if anything, lana is managing him

don't be negative. let the Delulu Express hit every stop (to nowhere)

we are. It's a proper song

Isn't it amazing how Lana's albums are so distinct that any new song can go in any direction: from sounding anything like psychedelic rock to soft rock to jazz to singer-songwriter to alt. pop and baroque pop to folk rock and gospel. Not a lot of artists have that vibe about them. I mean, for me, for example, all Miley Cirus songs sound like basic bitch pop. Lana's diversity! And we'll now be adding country and American songbook to that long list of genres she's covered.

Yeah, the intro was the craziest part! A double treat - who woulda guessed. Also, that intro was fire. Lasso might be coming sooner than we think, given that she's teased two songs, has a new aesthetic, and the MV is ready. The only cloud in sight is that statement about not knowing where Lasso is going. If it weren't for that, I'd be thinking it's coming out in September 100%. But as long as we get Tough within a week and an update on the album, we're good. Manifesting....

Good for her! Thanks for the update

Speaking of the dancers, whatever happened to Ashley Rodriguez? Weren't her and Lana like super tight?

I actually think this could be a great Lasso album opener. Is anyone else gettin' Cherry vibes from this clip? For me, it's like Cherry but better. Cherry but a bop. A cherry bop!
