Sitar

I don't know why this line is so sad to me. Maybe one of her saddest lyrics ever. I think this song is about meeting in AA.

America fuckin blooooows when it comes to censoring harmless words still. I remember they used to blurt out "Russian roulette" in "Poker Face"! The controversy in "Aura" is easily hidden just by the title change and since it's likely the Telephone continuation it'll definitely eventually have an awesome video I don't predict "Sex Dreams" being totally rejected personally but even beyond the title the vocals are a bit sexy to get away with blasting in a public place like a mall or sth And yeah, those number one hits by Sky and Marina

my nam is jessica but plz call me rain or asia i dont like the name jessica!!!!

Really lovely new feature with Cate Le Bon https://soundcloud.com/turnstilemusic/i-think-i-knew-feat-perfume

So it looks like Little Daylight couldn't re-schedule. Now there's...LIZ? Whoever that is. And Twin Idol is doing some shows, too. Wonder if they're collaborating or anything, they're doing loads of stuff together...

What how the fuck did you already get it? I even signed up for electronic delivery and nothing

...Acceptable No I love this era for that reason. If she doesn't win back the public she should at least win back the actual fans she lost. I want "Aura" But "Sex Dreams" was winning by like 5,000+ last I checked so I'm pretty excited for that Hopefully the title isn't too controversial for radio because I really think it's inevitably the second single.

FREE MY MIND ARTPOP YOU MAKE MY HEART STOP

Monday, November 4th...

Crying at your ratings. Thank god for unreleased material or you prob wouldn't like Lana at all... OMG it does flow really well, like the same song. I had it in front of Noir but I'll give this a go!

The intro with Television bothers me a lot. I think that intro section would sound a lot better on Controversy (because I'm attached to it as the first song).

I did not expect this so soon eeeeeeeeep another hugely anticipated album! Slay me September

Charli XCX Lana Del Rey Other irrelevants? According to her Twitter, Azealia never submitted her verse for "Ratchet", so it remains solo Sounds like a damn mess, though.

So I'm the only one who likes Outta Time? Only one I don't really dig is Trouble.

Yes I'm seeing her in LA I just didn't know where the hell else she was performing tbh

Also Gaga is notoriously reliant on a backing track for choruses--often entire choruses aren't sung live or she's using layered vocals and only the backing vocals play. Idk if I'd go as far as lipsyncing but she ain't innocent.

Oh no it seems really plausible that they're gonna do a hubby/wife band that's the woooooorst

Totally! As for comparisons, idk their voices aren't really similar at all but Tennis Court kinda reminds me of the Justin Parker demo of "Born to Die". Limited scope of artists I guess, Lana's pretty close in the current realm of pop girls. And I think like Lana, she'll be one of the few "tumblr acts" to really outlast the hype--with less backlash, but still. Sweeet, where are you from? Also lucky because you'll already have studio versions to memorize! (I've pretty much got Ribs and Buzzcut Season down pat even though they're live versions, though~)

So in short she can go fuck herself with her endless stank attitude and the complete inability to defend her that she leaves her fans with~ Outtie

You said the same thing about Applause She's not Bjork ffs

Daddy's Girl and Boys Don't Cry are sooooo good. I'm really loving this album, let me replay it 800 times. Natalia, you've got me

This day is too fucking much for me. Is that Korean rapping? Sky's part is pretty lovely, though.

So let's chat. ARTPOP > Swine > Aura > Sex Dreams > MANiCURE > Applause > I Wanna Be With U > Jewels & Drugs But I really loved then all. SO FUCKING MUCH. Death at the "ARTPOP" hate--that might be one of the best songs she's ever written! I was sure "Sex Dreams" was going to be my favorite, and I still love it a serious amount, but "ARTPOP" and "Swine" both had me close to peeing my pants. ARTPOP - Love the dreamy vibe, it reminds me of a more subdued "Heavy Metal Lover". The bridge is fantastic and "Free my mind, ARTPOP / You make my heart stop" is already such an unavoidable "yasssssss" moment for me. Swine - I thought the live version was going to be a lot more angsty and rock than it actually ended up being but I'm pleased with the result! I'm really surprised DJ Whiteshadow did this because it seems like such a Zedd anthem. Hopefully not the second title because the title alone comes with some skepticism. But it works. And the performance was crazy. Aura - Honestly hasn't gotten old yet and I've played the hell out of it. Sex Dreams - GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD. THE SPOKEN WORD. THE RETRO CHORUS. THE VOCALS, THE LYRICS. SECOND SINGLE PLEASE. MANiCURE - The backing track "man cure!" is where it's fucking at, man. Also single worthy! Applause - Great ARTPOP mission statement, one of the best choruses, will be the perfect album ender--maybe not more than The Edge of Glory but close. I Wanna Be With U - Cute, basically. Sad to see it will probably boot "Princess Die" as token ballad because it's less depressing. But whereas Hair and Y&I should have stayed piano ballads, I hope this one gets the huge production treatment to fit in with the album and get rid of the same chords she always plays. Jewels & Drugs - Could actually slay the GP! It will serve it's jamming purpose no doubt. Very The Fame, which I love. This reminded me of you: "If you want, you can continue to pick her apart. (Hi, Azealia Banks!) However, in my opinion, that’s a boring hobby best left to Twitter trolls, and it’s really no longer relevant. Genuine criticism is one thing (if a song’s no good or a performance sucks, then by all means, let’s hear the argument), but in my eyes (and ears), she’s doing no wrong musically." I kid (sorta). Hope you do give the album an unbiased chance. I'm so annoyed with Azealia but this makes me excited that it'll end up on the app at least because at the end of the day of course I wanna hear their song. Sounds...not great, though. Always loved that instrumental, though.

Bizarre Love Triangle - New Order

Saturday Night?! I'm really feeling everything about Trouble over Perfectionist, if you've only managed to listen to older material. Anyway, I think I'm gonna have to make a custom tracklist for Trouble like I did with Electra Heart because I want Feel Myself on there and based on the snippets the order of the songs is all sorts of wrong.
