When she says “Forensic Files wasn’t on” - I understand on a metaphysical level

Ok, how about this: the album ends with Margaret, but now it's titled "When You Know, You Know" and it's solo. Then the album tells a perfect story from start to finish; ending indicates the beginning of a new chapter.

the new boy genius song "Leonard Cohen" just proves that no one can do it like Lana
[Verse 2: Dacus]
Leonard Cohen once said
"There's a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in"
And I am not an old man having an existential crisis
At a Buddhist monastery writing horny poetry
But I agree

Has anyone noticed that the melody she sings in the Jon Batiste Interlude around 1:05 is similar to Cinnamon girl’s chorus?

The "reviews and reactions" channels have always been mostly mediocre, but lately they are worse. They don't even pay attention to what listen to.

I'm gonna not attack that "YouTuber" bc I'm a better person than that, but there's a lot of material there. Believe me.

I actually put "Fishtail" and "Peppers" on my running playlist and I find them pretty good for a lighter jog!

God this album. It just. I can't. The words are absent
I'd be interested to know everyone's favourite vocal or production highlight from each track?
For me it's hard to narrow down but to keep it simple:
The Grants - "My Grandmother's last smile..."
Tunnel - everything in the last minute. The soundscape is huge. The choral is enchanting. The "Don't forget me"'s. Gorgeous
Sweet - children, marriage and marathons - simple and elegant production and light vocals.
A&W - that transition. Holy f**k. So dark. The industrial electro effects on her vocals. Bliss.
Juda Smith - Erm. I suppose the piano in the background would make a gorgeous instrumental.
Candy Necklace - the jazzy piano bridge. Gives me tingles and I scream Chopin!
Jon Batiste - actually love the vibes. The crescendo when he shouts.
Kintsugi - the beauty of the melody of "Roadrunner Cafe" so beautiful, so sad and so very very relatable to me... and my mother.
Fingertips - Christ. I've yet to get through it without getting misty. Theres so many build ups and come downs but the highlight is "Watch tv by my side"
Paris, Texas - the bass during "went to SEE some friends of mine" gets me every time.
Grandfather - "Deep sea fishing for all the things he's wishing"
Light the Light in - the whole production! Her final chorus in falsetto is Divine.
Margaret - "The Soul that you bring to the table" urgh there's magic on this track.
Fishtail - "Skinny dip inside your mind" and that beautiful little tingle in the production. I adore this track. Needed to be longer.
Peppers - the three "I'm in Love" 's
Taco truck - maybe unpopular opinion but the synthetic trumpets on VB are everything.
All in all I am really enjoying this era. The album is stunning and the highlights are career bests.
As a cohesive body of work NFR! Still ranks top, but it is very close second for Ocean Blvd. Just a couple of niggles keeps it from the top spot; had juda Smith been 90 seconds long it wouldn't kill the momentum and Peppers would be alot more successful without the sample, along with the cheap production that pales next to A&W which sounds polished and expensive by comparison.
Other than that I think we can say tracks like Sweet, Fingertips, Kingtsugi, Paris, Texas, Candy Necklace, Fishtail and The Grants symbolise Lana at her pinnacle of honest songwriting, exquisite compositions, beautiful vocal delivery and layered, profound production. She really does keep getting stronger and stronger every time she gets in that studio.
Long may it reign!

I hope
It looks like they were shooting some b-roll of someone skating in an empty pool which seems very lana..
and then the production designer posted this which is giving me major a&w / interview mag vibes…
