She just dropped the colab with the biggest musician of our times, like last week. I'm mega bored myself with "Person", but we gotta cut her some slack after The Abyss... We also got Tough 6 months ago. She's feeding us all right, just very scarcely.

Lana going full nihilism with that one. One of her best. Even though she was probably just ad libbing and fucking around, ended up being profound.

It's all in God's time. You'll get it when you get if when you get it if you get it.

Nicole Kidman in To Die For is the SLAY of the 1990s. How the fuck did I forget that performance in my list. Had her in for The Hours. Could those two performances have been any more different? It's like a different actor all together

Great topic! 💛 This decade: Timothee Chalamet in the Complete Unknown, Cate Blanchett in TAR, Emma Stone in Poor Things. Mind-blown by all of these. All-time male lead: Anthony Hopkins in The Father 💔 Phillip Seymour Hoffman in Capote, James Dean in East of Eden All-time female lead: Charlize Theron in Monster, Nicole Kidman in The Hours, Viven Leigh in Gone with the Wind, Natalie Portman in Jackie, Francis McDormand in Fargo, Kathy Bates in Misery All-time male supporting: Christopher Waltz in Inglorious Basterds, Jude Law in Talented Mr. Ripley, Joel Grey in Cabaret All-time female supporting: Monique in Precious, Whoopi Goldberg in Ghost, Julianne Moore in Boogie Nights Can watch these movies just for the performances. But Anthony Hopkins in The Father broke my heart the most. Was jumping from joy when he won. What an actor! Favorite category: female lead, always excited for that one the most. Haven't scrolled through the topic yet, can't wait to see your picks @Embach

Guys, I need this to be the sound of TRPWS. It's kinda how I imagined Lasso. https://youtu.be/Zv1Vvjur7uM?si=avxnCQk-x5NT54o9 Anyone know this guy? Discovered the track on Fantano's channel, and I just know I'll be brainwashing myself with it for 2 weeks at least. So fire

Wow. Just discovered this. Can we have this guy on TRPWS, please? https://youtu.be/Zv1Vvjur7uM?si=V340VD75S-0tHo6l Also, if this was a Lana track with her voice, I'd be fucking ecstatic.

Stargirl is just a interlude - I don't get the hype here. It's got a few words in and then it ends. Tbf, the Abyss has much more going for it. At least it's a full track, for a start.

honeymoon... those were the days... by the beach dropped, and honeymoon (title track), and mtwbt and prisoner - all within a few weeks, alongside the album in full, if i remember correctly. and it was a good album. I was living in london at the time, it was raining ALL THE TIME, honeymoon made it beautifullll

that's what i'm most excited about. But i also want a BIG jack song. Another VB or AW

That album cover 🤦🏻‍♂️ what even is that? The art director was like "here's a cheap wig, stand by this glass, and i'll take a pick with my web cam." Budget: 11 dollars

It's the 8th most streamed track on Hurry Up, and has about the same streams per day as Open Hearts, which just got the MV treatment. Mind you, there's 22 songs on the record. Timeless (feat Playboi Carti) 524,006,837 5,315,413 Cry For Me 19,818,915 4,769,239 São Paulo (feat. Anitta) 173,763,613 4,042,203 One Of The Girls (with JENNIE, Lily Rose Depp) 1,595,369,734 3,132,939 Open Hearts 11,982,687 2,781,835 Baptized In Fear 11,905,447 2,742,076 Wake Me Up (feat. Justice) 13,282,658 2,548,271 Reflections Laughing (feat. Travis Scott, Florence + The Machine) 10,752,072 2,459,660 The Abyss (feat. Lana Del Rey) 8,817,087 2,198,817

I really believe Henry will "come on" on Valentine's. It's the perfect time - just the right amount of time before the album release date. She's dropped AW on Valentine's, too. She got some amazing reviews when she did. It's a good time of year to drop a single (sad girls and boys with no date to boost streaming). Not too early after The Abyss to bother The Weeknd, but still capitalising on that exposure. About 3 months after the album announcement in Nov. Henry obviously being a love song. First single 14th Feb, second single April (Stagecoach), third single May when the album drops or later. You're welcome.

So, the track is doing amazingly on Spotify. More than 2 million streams per day, which is a lot more than Tough did. To give you an idea, Summertime Sadness (her highest streaming songs) generates about 1.2 million per day. So, this is huge. Already out streamed some 60 LDR songs, too. This is for sure going to Billboard 100 as Lana's 17th song to chart. I know y'all don't give a damn about Lana's chart success at all, but just thought I'd share. More info here: https://kworb.net/spotify/artist/00FQb4jTyendYWaN8pK0wa_songs.html

i need the "mirror." Releasing that track as the first single would be such a curve ball and an absolute slay.

haha. That's kinda on ldr, really

Brat is a full-on dance record. It deserved dance record and just that, as far as album categories go imo. AOTY should be a bit more serous / universal - like an album everyone should listen to. The greatest accomplishment in music, not club bangers.

they fixed it now. i wonder if this will make it to Billboard 100, hope so. Having tough and this both end up there compensates for ob not charting at all.

this 100%%%. great year for music! and this year we have two fantastic albums already (the weeknd and fka) and lana's about to drop, so great time to be alive music wise.

yeah to think that pretty much every publication in the world had it as number 1, and they still gave it to billie 🤦🏻‍♂️ billie's first record too against lana's 5th. I knew then and there that they were worthless and only follow the money trail. This year billie got some karma for that. Love her to death, but needed to happen 🤭

Tbh, Billie has won many Grammies and Oscars (9 Grammies, 2 Oscars) - she's fine. She's 23 years old. She'll have 100 Grammies by the time she's done making music.

Gurl, you are in the wrong era for that. Person will be her most stripped-back album yet. Henry is the first single, for Pete's sake. On the plus side, it might still be a phenomenal record.

Okay, so Gaga is back to her feeding the gays era.... Her most commercial effort in years? That being said, these singles are doing nothing for me. It's just trashy. Also, I thought her lyricism reached its nadir with "Ra, ra, ah-ah-ah. Roma, roma-ma · Gaga, ooh, la, la. Want your bad romance" Until we got: "Abracadabra, amor-oo-na-na Abracadabra, morta-ooh-ga-ga Abracadabra, abra-oo-na-na" I'm so glad Lana Del Rey actually exists and I didn't just make her up.

Brat had a big cultural impact, yes. But that's a dance record that really appealed to the young crowd, club-goers, etc. I don't think it was worthy of AOTY. Dance record of the year, sure. And like I said, Hit Me Hard and Soft had about 8 tracks only, a few of which were just not on the level of others (as much as I adore the album and think it's Billie's best so far). CC was a big sprawling record appealing to all generations, with ballads, country, covers, bops, etc. and it just had more going for it. The moment I heard it in full, I knew it will win AOTY. The production on it was pure fire too. Still not over the bass on Bodyguard...I'm probably in the minority, but CC truly deserved this imo.
