wait so nfr dislikers loved the song? oh it must be good

MY IMPACT 
 
when I look back, tracing fingertips over plastic bags...

My favorite listens to new Lana songs/albums are the morning after release and oh my god I'm floored.
Still can't believe how good this song is and I've realized I lowkey don't care about any album campaign/MVs/trailer etc cause the music is being soooo good that's all I care about  (even though I'd of course welcome any extra content with open arms ).
 
If the other songs are as half as good as the two singles we got this is going straight to the top of Lana albums 

After a day with A&W, here are my thoughts on it:
- I was first surprised how « quiet » the first part of the song was. I expected the production to be a bit bigger (probably VB tainting my expectations of it). But I could already hear it was a incredible track, with its transitions and many subtle production elements. The piano is simply haunting. We all are « I don’t want to play with you anymore » towards BB, at the moment, but we are probably loving A&w so much already because she gave us songs like TextBook and Black Bathing Suit, which are subtlety produced but are complex in their structure. 
- the title could have been American Whore but A&W also makes sense, with its Americana reference but also referencing the images we collectively have of hookers in diners, between johns. 
- the lyrics are dark AF. It’s really not doing wonders for my seasonal depression but I don’t really care haha. But it really is a gem in her discography. She is just an incredible singer songwriter. And we are digging deeper into the « angry, wordy lyrics » of the album with this one. 
- fave part: the echoey transition to Jimmy / shimmy coco puff (whatever it is), where she repeats « This is the experience of being an American whore »

I’m so excited about Taco Truck x VB. The way she revisited, payed tribute and even sampled older songs/sounds in A&W is absolutely astonishing. Kintsugi saying that Taco Truck’s outro is one for the books makes me even more impatient. And Jack teased it on his IG story today, as well! I’m pretty sure it’ll be a glorious ending to a sublime album. 
 
I’m also very curious about the interludes which are supposed to be psychotic and creepy. I wonder if Candy Necklace is going to take us by surprise, too. I remember BOZ saying that all the long tracks on the album have unusual/unconventional structure and this track has an insane amount of instruments on it. And Kintsugi described it as « massive ». 

Very strong debut on Spotify: 
 
1st Day - Partial (only 9 hours of tracking) 
🌍 WW: #139 (NEW) — 1,251,647 (filtered)
🇺🇸 US: #93 (NEW) — 410,167 (filtered)
🇬🇧 UK: #89 (NEW) — 92,349 (filtered)
 
The title track got 1,355,631 filtered streams on its first day (partial), so the gap between the two tracks consists of 100,000 streams. For a surprise drop of a 7-minute album track with zero playlisting on a Tuesday, this is quite impressive. Hopefully it’ll have a healthy run and - why not? - perform even better (the TikTok stans have to make it go viral though!) in the upcoming days/weeks until the album release date. Lana deserves this. 
 
 

Crude Drawing of an Angel is my favourite track by far. Absolutely transcendent. I also really love Pretty in Possible, Butterfly Net, Blood and Butter, and Hopedrunk Everasking. Billions has aged beautifully and is such an amazing - and fitting! - closer. I’m less keen on the rest of the singles which all have their strong moments, but mostly feel ‘slight’ compared to the rest of the album (Bunny Is A Rider is very cool though) . I also love Dido on Fly on Me (Grimes almost ruins the song, lol). 
 
 

cant believe it was jack who gave the us what mike dean thought he was giving 

Iirc Ocean got playlisted the day after it was released.  On a Thursday .
 
😀 hopefully Benny is competent this time around with the promotion

I think that the Spotify playlists are updated on Fridays. Hopefully Wednesday and Thursday’s streams will be strong enough so that her team decide to push/promote the song even more on Friday.

I think that her US streams (including the title track) are much bigger than during her previous releases.

Wow. This is actually really exciting to see. She's not one to hype her own material. Seems like she's really proud of this one.

Wearing her new merch!



 

okayyy the only thing i don't like about the album is grimes being on it  but anyways this is better than pang suprisingly
