    It’s possible that those songs are leaked while they were sent to mastering process. This might also explain why they don’t have CN if it was late replacement and if they didn’t send it with this bunch.

    We have the same conversations all the time about whether artists read here- it’s their own choice and we are a lot nicer than what you see on the Daily Mail or even ATRL

    The digital version will have glitch pop and the later pressings will have it. If she were a cunning business woman

    Does anyone else think watercolour eyes is better than every song on the new album?

    Everyone needs to accept that people can have different opinions. I love Lana, but her new album isn't my fav. I think we can see from the critic reviews now that this is album is not going to outperform NFR!

    i think that if she had title track, margaret & either of the last two tracks on the album as the first 3 singles, there would be much more hype around the album

    No need to get aggressive people. I love Lana and she is my favourite musician. I'm just not connecting with this new album, and that is okay. One of my favourite albums of hers is Honeymoon and that is often referred to as her worst album. So what the hell do I know lol.

    I have been a Lana Del Rey fan since the release of Born to Die (the single) and have closely followed her music ever since. She is my favourite artist for sure. However, I am EXTREMELY disappointed with the Did you know album. So many of the songs have no melody OR are sooooo boring. I don't understand how anyone could say this album is better than NFR. I miss the catchy tunes and the cinematic songs she use to sing, such as on Honeymoon. There were so many good songs on Blue Bannisters - if you lie down next to me, violets for roses, thunder, etc. All of these songs had great lyrics and good production, but this new album is so one note and they are forgettable with next to no tune. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but this is by no means even close to being her best work. Perhaps her worst actually! Does anyone actually agree with me? lol

    I still haven’t listened to the album (waiting for release day ) but I’ve read people’s opinions and descriptions. I’ve always thought Lana is letting the praise she got as “song writer” gets into her head a little bit. It was evident with that weird poetry book and her recent songs being melodic messes compared to her earlier work. Too much focus on lyrics less so on the music itself. That W magazine interview about Fingertips and automatic writing got me worried. She’s in her bubble a little too much.
     
    I hope the album gets panned even more simply because she needs a wake up call to make accessible music again. She’s still a mainstream commercial artist. You’re not Bjork. You’re not making music for a 500 people art gallery (if she thinks she is, well time to quit her label and go independent). You’re making music for millions. Also, her stans mentality of her being this artiste (not caring about sales, etc) irks me too.
     
    Also, this whole thing reminds me of Lorde during the Solar Power era. They were expecting acclaim for that album and got the opposite . It was hilarious. Reading through the email updates? or whatever leading up to that album, you can tell Lorde was in her little (Antarctic faux environmentalist) bubble as well. She really convinced herself she was making the ultimate art form with that album.

    I just know that Lana convinced her self 6 minutes songs are art (as do some of her stans here). Maybe one song but an album full of lengthy tracks might not be the best idea. Standards exist for a good reason. I’m super happy critics are dragging those interludes. She thought she ate with that. There’s no point in making interludes as long as full length tracks. Zero reason. Also, loads of critics like the experimental unbothered nature of the album but as a listen not very enjoyable. Common thread among all of the reviews.
     
    Side note: I know I’m being critical rn but my opinions could change after hearing the album .
