I have no idea how real Britney's alleged "Pretty World" album is, but I like to imagine a timeline where she released that as a short EP pre-Glory just as a way for her to dip her toes into a cutesy/hyperpop sound. 
 
As for the artwork, I want her to be on a pink helicopter overlooking a pink city. Kinda XCX-world inspired combined with Gag City. 
 
Pretty World's Imagined Tracklist:
1. When I Rule the World (featuring SOPHIE) [originally from Liz]
2. Pretty Girls (featuring Iggy Azalea)
3. Mine [originally from Slayyyter]
4. Ooh La La [originally a soundtrack song]
5. Girl Like Me [originally from Slayyyter]
 
 

this is a great idea! thanks for adding it cause I don't want to be posting my made up albums in the tracklist rearranging thread cause it's not that lol

Lana has deff shaped me since I started listening to her right before high school and now into my mid-late twenties. She's taught me how to see beauty in small things, even the most mundane things in life. She taught me to embrace femininity in whatever way I want it to look like. I can express my lighter feminine side while also embracing my darker side. Listening to her just makes me feel prettier and made me gain confidence. Her music has comforted me during times I needed it the most like breakups, milestones, trauma and even happy times. Each album aligns with different eras in my life and reflect my experiences. Her songs really click for me when dealing with mental health problems in a way that almost no other artist can for me. I've come to so many realizations in my life with her music that have taught me lessons. I've learned to be more free-spirited and break free from trauma and toxicity. I've grown to appreciate friendships, family and romantic relationships more as well.

I guess that’s all we’r getting

Happy birthday A&W, you are that bitch 

Happy 1st Birthday A&W! An icon and a legend!

I definitely think that's what she says. 
 
When we talk about something traumatic, we often speed up our words or speak very quietly because there's a lot of shame associated with verbalising those feelings/experiences. At least that's what I've experienced with myself and other survivors. 
 
I think she says it quietly in the song, either unconsciously or (more likely) to symbolise the shame about it. When says says "sittin' on the sofa feelin' super suicidal" in Candy Necklace she really speeds up how she says it. The annunciation is just slightly more slurred/muddled than some of the rest of the lyrics in the song. which I think is for the same reason. 

I love everyone's analysis on this one... Just wanted to add from someone that grew up during the height and listened to a lot gansta rap, the first time I heard A&W the first thing that came to mind for me on the second half was ODB from Wu-Tang Clan single Shimmy Shimmy Ya. I am probably way off base, but I just thought with Lana's gansta style and being from Brooklyn herself, that it could be a nod to ODB and Wu-Tang. I know nothing, so I digress...

Where you go I go
What you see I see
I know I'd never be me
Without the security
Of your loving arms
Keeping me from harm
Put your hand in my hand
And we'll stand
- through Adele (Skyfall)
 
Palms rise to the universe
As we moonshine and molly
Feel the warmth, we'll never die
We're like diamonds in the sky
You're a shooting star I see
A vision of ecstasy
When you hold me, I'm alive
We're like diamonds in the sky
- through Rihanna (Diamonds)
 
With understanding
You won't let it cast you down
A mind full of questions
A current to purify
Science and visions
Be near when I call your name
Or ask me a question
- through Chvrches (Science/Visions)
 
And if you stay a while
I'll penetrate your soul
I'll bleed into your dreams
You'll want to lose control
I'll weep into your eyes
I'll make your visions sing
I'll open endless skies
And ride your broken wings
Welcome to my world
- through Depeche Mode (Welcome to My World)
 
Why can't this moment last forevermore?
Tonight eternity's an open door
No, don't ever stop doing the things you do
Don't go, in every breath I take I'm breathing you
Euphoria
Forever, till the end of time
From now on, only you and I
We're going u-u-u-u-u-u-up
- through Loreen (Euphoria)
 
So open up your heart and just let it begin
Open up your heart and just let it begin
Open up your heart and just let it begin
Open up your heart
Acceptance is the key to be
To be truly free
Will you do the same for me?
- through Katy Perry (Unconditionally)
 
Mon amour, sweet child of mine
You're divine
Didn't anyone ever tell you
It's ok to shine?
Roses, Bel Air, take me there
I've been waiting to meet you
Palm trees in the light
I can see late at night
Darling, I'm waiting to greet you
Come to me baby
- through Lana Del Rey (Bel Air)

“Elvis is my daddy, Marilyn’s my mother, Jesus is my bestest friend”

An interplay of the separating masculine archetype and the unifying feminine archetype draws out the potential of their common source into creative manifestation. Their background source could be considered a feminine extreme in that it contains everything in a state of undifferentiated unity. In this unity, the masculine and feminine orientations are inherent as naturally as plus and minus are inherent in a zero. The masculine differentiates reality while the feminine integrates it, the result being individual entities arising and interacting in mutual relations. In my understanding these are the fundamental principles of creation and consciousness. In Christianity Jesus is the ultimate example of this manifestation, being regarded as an incarnation of God in human body.


“Whitman is my daddy, Monaco’s my mother, diamonds are my bestest friend”

In this verse I identified archetypal ideas similar to those mentioned before. Whitman is one of Lana’s favorite poets while Monaco represents her idea of beauty. By words we define things and make them explicit/clear. Beauty, on the other hand, is implicitely/vaguely felt. Words analyze beauty while beauty integrates them in a harmonious whole, both actions enhancing the creation and its meaning. Diamonds symbolize a creation that is simultaneously clearly defined and beautiful. Such a creation is also durable because it prevents disintegration into parts by the analytical process and dissolution into vagueness by the integrating process.


“Heaven is my baby, suicide’s her father, opulence is the end”

Here I represented heaven and suicide with upward and downward tendencies, respectively. Fall leads to death, as the masculine/analytical process separates a part from its source, while ascension leads back to heaven, as the feminine/integrating process reunites the part with a larger reality. The two processes alternate in a cycle, resulting in the creation of multitudes of forms, our planet with its biosphere and human society being the richest place we know of. The Christian God descends to earth to die on the cross on Good Friday, only to be resurrected on Easter Sunday and ascend back to heaven. This story reminds us, who got stuck down here, that there is more to life when we open up and expand our perspectives.

I think mine is similar to Surf Noir's but it's more so knowing she draws from an authentic place and showcases it through Lana . Especially with BTD . Because it's all ideas , experiences , and events from before her fame ... Like we know about Blue Banisters back story , we watched it as it happened world wide . But like I like finding out about the events behind each song on BTD because some of those songs are crazy and no one was watching when she was making the album cause she wasn't famous yet . The two back stories behind Cola is insane ! One funny and the other like not at all . I wanna know about Off to the races cause that's wild from start to finish ...
