The picture is cute but what kind of promotional billboard is that.. there's no kind of text on it referencing to the album. I'm sure most people won't even realize it's Lana

Bitch needs to decorate!

As much as I love this song and am proud of its success, I kinda wish it'd be another one of hers that got #1 on the charts, something more elaborate

Although I really do like this song. I do sorta agree with a lot of others on here. The beat was simple as fuck. Like a starter beat. Or one you find on the internet. She really could've done better. Or at least got Kanye or someone with merit to make the "muddy trap" beat for her.
 
But I feel like her vocals and melody helped carry it a little more to make it catchier.

Am I a bad stan for hoping that this is just a demo and not the finished version?

YAS, GET DAT HIT LANA!

I just realized that the boat is a model and that it's just resting on the ledge of the balcony. Thank god it wasn't some bad photo shopping but still it's very awkward looking tbh

On their honeymooooooooonnn (dark blue dark blue)

There is no snake in Honeymoon it's just Lana

wtf is that tragic font

From the lifetime movie, "Honeymoon Gone Wrong" soundtrack 
I still think it's beautiful.

Still not loving this title at all. "Norton" sounds like a person's name and every time I hear the title I think of a person named Norton being burnt over a campfire. Omg that sounds so morbid but it won't leave my head

I think it's Yayo under a different name so she can put it on Honeymoon

Chorus:
Burnt Nortoooon
Burnt Nortoooon
Burnt Nortoooon
Ooooh Oooooooh
Dark Blue

She probably ran out of random stuff to post
 
or maybe she forgot her password and will never use that account again

PARTITION
In "Partition", the camera takes us inside a palatial estate that almost looks like it could have been the setting for the "Born to Die" video. See the exterior and interior below:

 
In the first of several scenes curiously similar to ones out of "National Anthem", we find Mrs. Carter seated at an immaculately set table, barely noticed by her rapper husband peering over his newspaper:

 
In her mind, she embarks on a sexual fantasy. Again she channels Rosalita:

 
Her rapper husband feels up her leg in a vehicle:

 
She puts on a show for him, donning a sequined flapper headdress like Lizzy wears in this photo:

 
Silhouette techniques like something out of "Summertime Sadness" are employed:

 
Beyoncé pole dances like Lana in Tropico over a sexy French spoken interlude like in "Carmen":

 
Like A$AP Rocky in "National Anthem", her rapper husband watches her performance voyeuristically, smoking a cigar:

 
 
JEALOUS
Beyoncé is a jealous, jealous, jealous gurrrrrl. This video begins in the same estate reminiscent of "Born to Die" as in "Partition". In one scene, the former Miss Knowles is draped over a pinball machine like Lana in "Ride":

 
In another we see a "tunnel lined with yellow lights":

 
 
ROCKET
Like "Blue Jeans", "Rocket" opens on a black & white close-up of a reflection of the artist's face in a ripple of water:

 
Later in each video we watch the artist submerge her face in water in slow motion:

 
 
MINE
Like Lana in the poster for Tropico, we find Beyoncé re-enacting Mary in the Pieta:

 
Also, is that another Shaun Ross cameo?
 
 
XO
In "XO", Beyoncé orchestrates perhaps the largest NYC land grab since Dutch settlers bought Manhattan Island from Native Americans for 24 bucks, stealing the famed amusement destination from the Queen of Coney Island herself:

 

 

 

 
 
***FLAWLESS & SUPERPOWER
Since I can't find any Lana plagiarism in either of these videos, I'm just gonna go ahead and assume they must be borrowed from the "Dark Paradise" and "Cola" videos that never materialized. @@Ultraviolence Watch these. One of them may be the closest thing you'll ever get to your precious "Cola" video.
 
 
HEAVEN
Here we have the biggest plot heist since Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds ripped off Gremlins. In "Heaven", Beyoncé portrays a woman mourning her deceased female bff in a series of flashbacks. Sound familiar? Of course it does. It's the plot of Lana's "Summertime Sadness" video. Not content to copycat one Lana video, "Heaven" filches from a few. A shot in a church mirrors the chapel in "Born to Die":

 
In a flashback, Beyoncé's girlfriend sprays alcohol at a campfire party echoing scenes in "Ride":

 
And we see her and her gal pal riding in a car like Lana & Jaime King:

 
She only barely tries to disguise her copying Lana's recitation of the Lord's Prayer in Tropico by saying it in Spanish. Oh, and speaking of Spanish, here's Rosalita yet again:

 
 
BLUE
Sure, there's another "tunnel lined with yellow lights":

 
The sequined bra is back:

 
And she evokes Lizzy's showgirl style:

 
But most saliently, this song is about Beyoncé's, uh, baby Blue love, the black baby daughter she had with a rapper. What a blatant "National Anthem" ripoff!

 
 
GROWN WOMAN
Last but not least, the video for "Grown Woman" consists of home footage of Beyoncé's childhood performances, a clear homage to Lana's DIY videos.
 
 
 

It would be nice to buy the song in HQ, but I'm glad she just shared it win fans as an intro song. It shows how much she favors her art and fans over the commercial side of things

This gif is accurately me right now
 

 
I heard Blue Jeans at the beginning

I's so perfectly calm and beautiful, the last part slays.
 
I wish there was more info in the description bar, I can't handle these random drops 

way to go detectives, what's next?

I feel like this song put me to sleep. But it was pleasant one. I agree with a lot of the others..basically the only relevant parts of the song are from the bridge inward.

its so fucking vintage and cinematic asfffff !! it really sounds like nothing I've heard from her before! 

That'll be on "Honeymoon, The Love Making Edition"
