Literally she can make a video of herself twerking to a 15 second remix of Burnt Norton and it'll salvage this era

This already shits on LIB #sorrynotsorry

Thank you to all who signed already. I understand if some people think it's silly or pointless, but I believe, with enough attention, it could actually make things happen. I'm still trying to figure out who else could be a decision maker for this release, so I'll keep trying.

I was thinking about TLY today and while recalling the song in my head, I said the lines:
 
And I still get trashed, hunty, when I hear your tunes
 
And then I was like what, that can't actually be it, can it? So I looked it up that no indeed it isn't. All these pop forums are infecting my brain with drag queen lingo

Is This Happiness:
 
Actual lyric
"You think you're Hunter S. Thompson"
 
Misheard
"You think you're Lana Rey *mumbling*"   i ALWAYS hear this idk why

Yes please goodbye, all you do is post the negative side of EVERY thing she does (not in a intelligent debatable manner but in a entitled way). There is a difference between a Singer/Musician and a Entertainer. Lana is not an Entertainer, and we already know she never will. If you want one, Beyonce is waiting for you. All I need from her is music, the MAIN THING that made me/us a fan. We should be grateful that all of the extra things she does (music videos, magazine shoots) even come into fruition. There are artists that drop music and disappear off the Solar System. You are also mixing her personal life with her work. I could give three fucks if she was dating Donald Trump. As long as she shows interest in her art and absoulutely nothing is standing against her of working on it, it is all good.

I'm crying literal fucking tears, there is tangible promo for this album 

What kinda BEYONCE-esque surprise release tho fucking hell

I think TBD is kinda trite and kinda extra. Swan Song could've also used some work imo because had the chorus been more explosive, it would've been the best song on the album. :/

Something really far-out for her; I wouldn't mind her dipping and dabbing with new genres lmao. She can make a really cool fusion of different genres. 
 
Actually, I 100% expected Honeymoon to be the grand return of Popna, which I still feel a thirst for omg.

I've seen many a Lana stan try to make sense of the tracklist and tie it up in a cohesive knot but I think this by far makes the most sense to me. I'm definitely gonna thieve this and try it out for myself. <3

I'm usually not one that is good with the "flow" of albums or playlists but I really feel bothered by Honeymoon's tracklist. I would change it as such:
 
Honeymoon Terrence Loves You God Knows I Tried Religion 24 Salvatore Burnt Norton High By The Beach Music To Watch Boys To Freak Art Deco The Blackest Day Swan Song With this sequence, I can break the album in little "parts"..
 
Part 1: Drifting Away
Honeymoon and Terrence Loves You both give me this summery vibe. They are the only two songs where I feel like the atmospheres fit the visuals of the album. They are where the daydream starts.
 
Part 2: Retro
God Knows I Tried and Religion give me western vibes and they feel set in the past, so it reminds me of the old days of the "wild west". I think 24 also fits into this vibe since it sounds like a song for an old action movie (or the character described is like that of old heros like Bond and Indiana Jones). Salvatore is thrown in here because it gives me old Italy mafia vibes. It, like the others in this section, just feel like they take place in the past. The outro of Salvatore I think goes nice into the quiet speaking of Burn Norton.
 
Part 3: Interlude
Burn Norton is where the album moves from the retro to the future. I think the interlude comes at an awkward time in the official tracklist. The album can clearly be divided into past and present, so I don't know why it wasn't with this wonderful track to act as a bridge. So here we are.
 
Part 4: Future
The intro to High By The Beach serves as a much better transition with its little instrumental bit than the immediate vocals of Religion. It gives the listener a few seconds to also transition into the "future" period of the album. Starting with High By The Beach kind of starts at the end of the story, with the woman already breaking up with the man. Moving into Music To Watch Boys To is kind of like a flashback to when the girl and boy met. Freak is them running away to California, to the beach where she'd eventually break up with the guy as explained in High By The Beach. Art Deco is next and is unrelated in the previous trilogy. It can't really be separated from Freak but even if they weren't gapless I think this would feel right still. The instrumental to Art Deco is very mechanical, which fits in with the "future" theme.
 
Part 5: The Present...?
I really didn't know where else to put The Blackest Day because its too powerful to not interrupt the flow of the rest of the album and is kind of singular among the rest. So it just goes here and I don't think its a terrible place for it either. Swan Song obviously closes it out. I do like Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood. I feel like it and Swan Song are interchangeable but are awkward next to one another because they are both closing songs. Imagine The Other Woman and Flipside one after the next. Both are perfect album closers but would sound weird right after each other.  In this case, I went with Swan Song because its an original Lana song and I like it better in the context of the rest of the album. I also think the end of Swan Song loops better back to the beginning of Honeymoon than the other.
 
Sorry this is long and probably doesn't make sense. I don't know how to better express why I changed the order and I'm too tired to go back and edit. Hopefully it makes sense

I believe Swan Song had a mention of 'blue': "Darling, dive deep and dark blue suedes." There are also some casual references to the 'blues' in songs like TLY, but I don't know if they count lol.

what

...wtf...? 

My top three have to be GKIT, TLY, and MTWBT. To me, they're lyrically the best, sound the best, and relate to me the most. In my opinion, they're some of her best songs up to date. Her worst song in the album has to be HBTB. I liked it at first, but it's so bland. Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood actually is really growing on me too.
