period. the producers are there to polish up a line, toss out an idea for a melody but by no means do they contribute that much to the lyrics. all of lana’s songs are 99% her words sometimes 100%. i don’t know why people want to credit men this badly as if it’s 50% lana 50% jack or 50% lana 50% rick or whoever else. with taylor she’s fully writing her songs too, even her pop hits, and again the producers will clean things up but there’s no man writing a majority of lana’s or taylor’s songs  delulu thinking  
like you can see here taylor will have an idea for a line but maybe isn’t sure how the melody should be, then the producer helps. but they still aren’t the ones writing whole verses 💀 

The only thing what the co-writers do is add "ooooh" and "yeaaaah" and "aaaah" inside the lyrics lol 

Don't forget the random vocal samples, like on Blue Jeans, and the random beats that sounded like vocals somehow. The production - as poppish as it was - was super cinematic and layered.
 
A little experimentation would be great.
 
Btw glad we all went from arguing to a nice little discourse

Well agree to disagree, I'm just citing an example here (before anyone concludes that I want her to repeat that feat), I think that Born to Die is a perfect example of bombastic production. Not saying that the tracks you mentioned don't feature bombastic elements, I just think that it's not Jack's forte, or his way of doing it sounds a little too unpolished and unfinished. 

ya tbh i think the last time i was that excited for a lana release was nfr  i hope she saw how good the reception was for a&w and felt more inspired to step out of her comfort zone, i remember in an interview she said she didn't even want to release it as a single because she thought it was too weird, but her friends loved it so she did, and it was probably her most well-loved single release since mariners and venice bitch lol

i agree with the first part. but i would consider songs like venice bitch, cinnamon girl, fiily, dealer, a&w, peppers, taco truck, and even grandfather and the greatest to be more "bombastic' songs. i don't think she's done with it, and i also think we literally never know where she is at creatively until she tells us or we get a single. 
 
to me a "bombastic" (i wish jack never uttered that word) song is something that feels grand or cinematic, and i think lana could very well go back to making a full album of songs like that. i just don't see why anyone would think that's out of the question when we probably would not have expected to get a song like a&w or fishtail on ocean blvd.

Yeah, some people have started referring to her recent work as "background music". I hate it but they have a point. Given how lowkey a lot of the songs are. I still love them (white dress and ob in top 10). But god i hope she gets out of her lowkey phase soon and shows more grit like aw

I'm just kind of done with "lowkey" style music. I don't want mellow trap bops, I don't want phoned in piano ballads, I don't want simplicity like Paris, Texas either. I LOVE ballads and piano if done dynamically, like Grandfather. Give us DRAMA like the first half of A&W. I want her to go dark, no matter what the instrumental backing is. Of course I'd love some UV style grit but I don't think it's likely... though surely she'll get bored of the mellow piano ballad style soon enough

i want a mazzy star cover
 
edit: now that i'm thinking about it, while i would always love a fade into you cover, i think quite the winter harbor or look on down from the bridge could be amazing

I need a country album 💋

If we do get Country I really hope we get a Preachers Daughter moment where it is country but mixed with different elements of pop, rock, and ambient
 
Like imagine a Lana song like Gibson Girl or Thoroughfare
