I can also imagine Lasso topping Ocean Blvd in magnitude: bigger collabs (Dolly Parton, ...), big producer (Luke Laird), big label? (Capitol)

13 days without any instagram update is unusual for lana, the next post will be something big, like an album announcement

I have a lot to tackle this year, so I have to be careful not to waste too much time on unimportant little things (which I am very prone to do).

I think charts have become less important since the streaming age. It used to be important how many records you sold, people bought them and could listen to forever. Now it's how many streams you have per day that counts, and even with music that's not in the charts, you can make a lot of money. I think she now has more than 25 million streams a day on Spotify, which is more than a lot of other big artists have, who had big chart hits but people lost interest soon after.

now I don't think it was political, because he had a more conservative view firstly, he probably wanted to commit suicide because he must have known that he would be killed afterwards secondly, since he had nothing left to lose, he wanted to become something of a shooting legend by taking on the ultimate challenge and outsmarting all the security forces

she announced the exact release date of Blue Banisters six weeks in advance, so we could still be waiting until mid-August for a possible September release of Lasso

It's more important that people keep streaming her songs, even the older ones. Her music is not made for short-term chart success, but for a long-term listening experience.

Lolita, Lucky Ones and Without You are almost my favorites songs from BTD deluxe

maybe not in the US, but it has been played here occasionally by some public radio stations

It may be a slightly unpopular opinion, but West Coast is my least favorite song on UV. The drums and guitar sound too heavy for me and should be reworked. The only other song I don't really like on that album is Sad Girl. It's beautiful in itself (especially the bridge), but somehow it develops too slowly and sounds a bit weak, or something else has to be changed, idk. All the other songs are almost perfect.

I was trying to write an article about Tough with perplexity.ai (uses ChatGPT), and the program somehow hallucinated that the song hit #3 on the Billboard Top 100 (and Top Ten in other countries) and that Chris Stapleton released a cover of the song on August 1.

Spotify listeners actually seem to have something like taste

here are some more descriptions of him: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c3gw58wv4e9o

the bad thing is that the assassination attempt will overshadow the previous things, it comes just in time for him

I guess the motive was political. He likely also registered as a Republican for strategic reasons to prevent Trump in the primaries.

One thing that strikes me as a bit odd is how quickly the security reacted to the assassin, in the video it looks like they had him in their sights the whole time. https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-assassination-attempt-who-was-thomas-matthew-crooks-identfied-as-trump-shooter-3878235.html Also, it looks like Trump kept looking over at them just before the shooting, as if he was just waiting for something to happen.

I hope it wasn't staged so he could feel the effects of his gun policy first hand.

every song with repetitive lyrics could be reworked with a new verses
