BoZ said it should rather be called AW&J, so it seems to be about American Whore and someone named J

I'm excited for the SYML sample, it's different from the usual piano Lana has on her album

He added a bit more: I really do, it's between that and AW for my #1 from the album I don't think anything else does, the album is mostly about her closest circle - family, friends, her memories with them. There is a lot of retrospection so I guess she felt like this was also something that shaped her as a person, maybe taught her to be tough, or was pulling her down for the longest. I personally don't see Lana being seen like that for years now, she is really well respected as an artist. But she definitely was really judged early on, the entire BTD era so it's probably a reflection on that. The Tommy "collab" is also not what people think it is but I want to listen to it a bit more before I write about it

She has written this song together with Mike Hermosa, who wasn't even her boyfriend during the time she worked on the music for Blue Banisters.

Her boyfriend from around late 2021.

I think that was an old video from Summer. Doesn't seem like they are dating anymore but they are on good terms.

Kinda happy that we didn't get the full track list on Wednesday, now we still have things to figure out until March

@cinnamongirI

We have writing credits from iTunes, but no producer, title, length.

I interpreted the waves (that are in the DNC logo and his posts) to be for the ocean in Ocean Boulevard, but maybe that's just coincidence.

So this means they either delayed the album rollout or he reused the Lana shoot for Weyes Blood?

Lana and Jack also have songwriting credit on the interlude it so it can't be just a recording, maybe they added instrumentals?

Yes, Watercolor Eyes was released midnight local time so it can't be compared directly.

I find it interesting that she has now covered Doin Time, Summertime (Gershwin version) and Summertime (Janis Joplin version), with the last being unleaked.

Judah is Lana's pastor and we are unfortunately getting an interlude where somehow his sermon is sampled or used otherwise Since Jack and Lana have also writing credit on it I assume it's not just a straight recording. Though since it comes directly after American Whore i'm a bit curious about it.

I think BoZ said 2 interludes.

I've been thinking of Jack Donoghue and not Antonoff

The meltdowns yesterday after @sweetie said the cover has all collaborators on it, including her pastor

Yes, they are the same track, I edited my comment to make it less confusing.

A&W and American Whore are the same track.

BoZ said he doesn't know anything about music videos.

Jack Antonoff having writing credit on the pastor interlude is giving me hope that it's nothing too preachy or controversial

BoZ again saying we can figure out the Rockefeller title. Late Nights maybe?

The sold Ocean Boulevard was 5:30 long and the version we got was 4:45 so it also wasn't the final version. I just remember Lana saying in the W Magazine interview that Fingertips has orchestral instrumentation and that doesn't seem to match with the snippet, at least the part we are hearing.

The leaked Fingertips snippet likely isn't the final song since it's only 2:17 minutes long and seems to only have sparse piano instrumentals, which doesn't sound like how Lana described it in the letter.
