I don't see this. Charlies camera work for Arcadia for example was a very good job.

especially if the disclaimer says the site contains fiction and "products of author's imagination"

I think a bundle of even excellent songs doesn't make a good album yet. It depends on how they are arranged and fit together.

I know it sounds bad but you can also say it has no real concept.

Seen from a further perspective the social media shutdown is a big, mature step, showing that she is more interested in making music than in self-portrayal. I think she's gaining a lot of respect for that.

Did you know, that she can still use her youtube community channel to pronounce news (and she has used it in the last days)? https://www.youtube.com/c/LanaDelRey/community

Either you're a fan or have almost nothing heard from her, there's nothing in between.

At least she is now on the spot in german main media, but her new song or album is nowhere mentioned ... https://www.spiegel.de/panorama/leute/lana-del-rey-us-saengerin-deaktiviert-ihre-social-media-profile-a-a2365dcf-9a73-4c63-b145-15a8e12295ab https://www.stern.de/lifestyle/oeffentlichkeit-saengerin-lana-del-rey-deaktiviert-social-media-profile-30736254.html

her last content is still available here (at least the photos): https://www.lanadelrey.com/social/

listening to her music

facebook also gone

song of the day

She starts with "...we're deactivating our social media accounts...". So they were not managed by Lana only and it was maybe not only her decision.

I think she could be disappointed/sad because "Arcadia" performed not as well as expected in the charts.

I like how she posted the "Fuck it I love you" / "The greatest" video on Twitter!

In an interview with the Los Angeles Times in 2019 she said:

I think the Great American Songbook is meant, e.g. "Summertime" belongs to it.

very good news!

I want to say that Arcadia is perfectly placed after Blue Banisters in this album. The first song slows down the sense of hearing, it's nearly like time is standing still, and after that you hear Arcadia more attentively and with a slower and more intense feeling.

I prefer videos directed by Lana herself like Arcadia more than with high budget.

It's good that she evolves and not sticks to her old style and stereotypes.

If her body is a map of L.A. and she leaves L.A., is she then leaving her body (dying)? Because in the video her body vanishes and she blurs into the starry sky. She's also speaking about a cross on a hill and the slowly playing trumpets are giving me this impression.
