8 hours ago, DCooper said:I think Text Book is about multiple people. I guess you could call it text book, I was looking for the father I wanted back to me suggests that she was in a pattern of using men to replace her father, rather than just one person.
She also at one point says maybe just the way we're different could set me free and then later people say we're too much alike, but maybe that will finally make it right which again suggests that the song is about multiple relationships, and her overall experience through her text book daddy issues. Given that the album is meant to tell her whole story, it makes sense that she'd start with a topic like this one that people have always associated her with, especially earlier in her career when she sang more about toxic relationships and used the word daddy so often.
The fact that the album ends with Lana not replacing her father with another man, but actually having him back is so truly beautiful
Is she always talking about her real daddy?

Maybe she/they want to test, how many people really like her music, without all the social media hype, promotion etc., like with the three singles dropped surprisingly in May with this unmotivated cover image ... It's very admirable that she wants to convince with her music only and nothing more.

Mine was "Queen Of Disaster". I heard it on a random TikTok video and thought "wait, doesn't this sound like Lana?". Then I thought, wow, there's a song which Lana hasn't released and shortly afterwards I saw a list with hundreds of unreleased songs.
-
Imagine the album releasing along with videos for text book, blue banisters and ww simultaneously like the three songs were dropped at the same time.
-
Would like to have a video for Blue Banisters rather than another flopping single when the album is coming out.

She was the answer to the "internet generation", most of her fans stream her music on spotify and apple music, she had more ig followers than Oprah, Arsenal London or Gisele Bündchen. So I think social media is more important than anything else for her.

Sometimes I'm asking myself if she is really the type of person to wants to post such selfies or is it her management who urge her for promotion?

Most of them are getting paid for that (google 'make money with reaction videos'), I don't think much of it.

Weekly album charts are somehow overrated, I think what really matters is how many copies are sold in a year or in a longer period of time.

More and more backuped ig images are disappearing from the official site, only some older are still available:

You can hear her music in different ways depending in which mood or state you are. For example in Arcadia everytime I listen to I notice different things: the slow falling chorus and outro, the smoothly brass and strings, her warm soft voice, the overall melancholy. Sometimes I wish I could hear her songs for the first time again!

The bridge reminds me a little bit of that from "Living Legend".
Her relationship to religion seems to be very close
She is also currently wearing a necklace with a little diamond cross which she got from XIV Karats.
