we need cute abbreviations for this album
How about "Right Person?"
"Oh, my favorite albums are BB, Ocean Blvd and Right Person"

I think we've been lassoed. Again. 
 
Whatever results, it seems will be another compromised LDR album. Except for Honeymoon and perhaps NFR!, hasn't every LDR been compromised, ending up as a sort of jumble of the original conception? 
 
We know she didn't have full control over BTD, we know Paradise resulted from the abandoned Tropico, we know UV was considerably reworked and reconceived, as was LFL to an even greater extent. So was what became Blue Banisters, which was announced under another title, and then 4-6 songs were reportedly abandoned, with the older already-leaked material replacing it.
 
I'm not sure about COTCC, but I know Lana was hesitant about releasing it as it was in terms of production and arrangements.   
 
So that leaves Honeymoon and Ocean Boulevard, and now Lasso is also going through a reconception, likely with an unknown number of songs dropped. 
 
Of course, I want Lana to be happy with whatever she releases, but it's the constant announcing of dates, conceptions, and album titles and then all the delays and changes that bites for Stans and fans.
 
It's redundant to have to say so. I think it alienates and exhausts fans in the long run. All she and her team have to do is keep mum until the details and facts about the forthcoming album are absolutely confirmed--until vinyl is being pressed. 
 

if she’s really about to scrap the country idea and nikki lane and turn it into sumn more lana-esque, southern gothic and dark then I’m definitely willing to wait 

i'm not saying she owes us anything. there's a difference between wanting to force her to release stuff or whatever and saying i think it would've been a good idea to put out what she had and what she and her collaborators were confident in, instead of mostly scrapping it. i don't really mind the delay, although i think we must be realistic about it not coming in the next 12 months, but i'm quite sad stuff like henry come on is getting scrapped, that's it. and once more, that's just my opinion, so this tone you have is very much unasked for
 

I really disagree about the incoherency. Musically yes, but I think the main tunnel theme - going in with The Grants and walking through the darkness to come out on the other side in the light - that runs through it is what keeps the whole thing together. It’s very thematically coherent in my opinion 

awwww shes late again, cant wait to hear ride interlude, bartender intro, burnt norton and hope is a dangerous thing from the tape!

I understand why jack got so popular as a producer, but he's honestly burnt out and run out of ideas
his production used to be genuinely interesting but now it's boring and dull and repetitive

I mean, not every song needs to be on a year-end list to be deemed a success. Some just need to be bops, gets some radio play and good streaming numbers, and be part of the pop culture conversation. What's more, she's just had that massive critical success with A&W, complete with 2 Grammy nominations.
 
For me, a peak on 33 in the US, plus high ranking in countries around the world + 4 weeks of charting, is more than enough to solidify Tough as a big win for Lana this decade.
 
I'll also remind you that none of the some 50 songs off her last three records had anywhere near the commercial success of Tough, and had zero radio play. So, we needed Tough, and it delivered. Mission accomplished, and we can now move on.
 

From our dreams and delusions

Someone call her on insta

Can we ALL pray/ manifest/ whatever for something good? I lit made a spell jar for this and we deserve this. Maybe if we pray hard enough lana will drop something good (no more qu*vo.) #prayforrey

A part of me wants her to win a Grammy as a nice big fuck you, but i kinda don't want her to get one either and still be a unawarded cult figure/outliner because it just makes the Grammys look even more of a joke and still keeps her in her own lane like she's always been in. I dunno. 

lmao when lana announced lasso back then i saw a twitter saying
"LASSO PREDICTIONS: its NOT gonna be named lasso, its NOT releasing in september and its NOT country."

“Tough” debuted at #33 on the Hot 100

The fact that there is already a certain collective hopelessness for the release of Lasso is what makes me believe more that it really came.

I don't like that blonde. The hair looks fragile and is only beautiful when it is done by Anna. Not day to day, it looks dry. When she has dark hair, even without styling it, her hair looked healthier. I hope she urgently returns to darker tones.
