Jeanne Dielman

I work for an SA hotline and I’m not an expert or anything by any means but “You asked for it, you wore a mini skirt, you wanted it" or something along those lines” is the number one reason a lot of SA/R doesn’t get reported. I think your analysis is head on and I’m also questioning other songs/poems/lyrics. I also think some things might be explained or pieced together after the album comes out. 
 
I’m still processing but I think it’s going to be really dark. 

The piano on A&W is the best in YEARS so stop talking 

Both Rob and Drew have piano credit on Sweet Carolina 

Yes he could and he did on BB 
It's the same cycle again. Hating on Jack's piano, now on Drew's and next album cycle will be the poor soul that dares to produce a piano ballad for her.
Kinda tiring 

when artists release music, they're releasing a piece of art into the world. lana is very aware that people speculate about her lyrics as she constantly has spoken about the importance of them and the connection her fans have with them. i really don't think it can ever be wrong to speculate about lyrics, but with sensitive topics like this it (obviously) should be done with tact, which most people here have been able to do. obviously every hardcore fan will speculate about what she's talking about because we know how much meaning she puts into her lyrics. intent is important

I haven't seen my mother in a long long time...

even more. Holy moly
 

Instant classic. On par with Terrence’s unforgettable and timeless composition 

Yeah the guitar strings and the melody…. Like????

Lyrical masterpiece incoming 

I’m randomly remembering about the lyrics in my day and I  fight the urge to read them over and over again as I want to be floored once I hear the whole thing

Can't stop reading the lyrics we have to Kintsugi...this song is going to destroy me 

The title alone just gives me NFR title track vibes. I’m so happy we’re so in the dark about this album as a whole, it’s so mysterious and exciting. 6 more days until we jsut have a month 

The way Lana is going to get the visionary woman award and she's just released a seven minute song, half folk half trap, with otherworldly lyrics and such a bizarre and random production and one of the best transitions ever, IKTR

I checked Europe’s Daily 100 by apple music and A&W has made it to four countries: Poland, Bulgaria, Ireland and Greece. I’m so proud of my country 

I expect something cinematic and orchestral. Boz said it should have been used in an album trailer so I'm sure it's another highlight (even though his taste is questionable at times he's been right with the title track and A&W being amazing)

I'm soooo curious what this track will sound like. Are we thinking a kind of MAC pop rock ballad? Or something closer to ocean blvd (seeing as it transitions straight into that track afterwards.) Also can't imagine how the lyrics "the grants" would work in a song without it sounding cringe but I know my girl can do it.
inb4 the grants is about all the grants she's received in her youth to help fund her music

Lana confirmed it's Jimmy, jimmy, cocoa puff

We aren’t ready for The Grants, Patty gonna get buried in this one 

She was SO real for this line, and I'm not trying to be funny. This was such a bold decision to put it in the song, but it was a good decision because it's true, relevant, and needs to be addressed in today's society. I think the entire song is a lyrical masterpiece, but this might be her best lyric on the album.

prolly not, though, you know kintsugi and fingertips are gonna eat

I felt that way on the first day of A&W’s release. I was thinking that the title track would turn into another LMLYLAW for me when I’ve overplayed it so much that I don’t care about it in the context of the album. But that’s not the case with the title track. It’s become better after hearing American whore and I think in the context of the entire album it would be even better

oh my god 
same
 
Tbh I'm really impressed that she doesn't care anymore and speaking her story for real this time  There was something mystical about lyrics from BTD UV and HM, lots of allegories. And then I think she somehow switched and became more careful till Blue Banisters. 
I don't even know how to describe it but with DYK and A&W I feel like she's drilling a hole in my stomach because of the lyrics.
I think it's just the beginning and we'll hear more massive lyrics very soon 
I am not ready  

Can't wait to hear the celesta
