In the USA-
it was #1 for 3 days on ITunes as a pre-order
More important than sales is, where on the LP chart it will debut-
Top 10 is assured.
Top 5 is assured
The guess would be either #2 or #1
There is not much competition for new releases unless a surprise is dropped last minute by a major superstar
 
Now maybe Billboard magazine will find another way to screw her, so won't say #1.
 
Record sales itself (physical copies sold) are at an all time low
It should debut at #1 on the Vinyl charts assuming they figure it correctly.
 
In the official Billboard magazine all time charts, if it debuts Top 10, it will be her 4th Top 10 (as Paradise counts as the same as an album on the charts and came in at #10), and 5th
Top 20.)
Which is a hell of a lot more than most other female artists in their entire careers.

It seems a lot of people here are not from the USA.
 
I don't know if they realize, the end of August, almost all TV talk shows are in reruns and in America, there is a holiday first weekend in Sept. called Labor Day
 
Everyone is partying and at the beach and having fun.
 
Even if Lana wanted to do publicity right now, there are no shows to go on.
Sept. 7- Labor Day (Monday)
Sept. 8, Stephen Colbert takes over for David Letterman on CBS and the first weeks guests are already known.
 
Sept. 11 is still a big deal in America and thankfully her album is coming out the following week. Imagine the uproar if it dropped 9/11.
 
So if any tv were done it would be the end of the following week around album release time, and NO shows have announced their schedules for that week yet, it is too early.
 
but then if there isn't fake angst and uproar by those who appear to not even be fans (seems for some reason there is more positive talk on this board over a failed Voice singer from 2012
who released a second rate copy cd recently than on Lana, which must be someone getting paid for clicks to that artist, and I won't give that artist publicity so won't name

So Terrence is David Bowie (nee:Jones) brother who inspired David to get into beat poetry and beat authors and American rock and roll
and who was schizophrenic (double personality) and hospitalized around 1970 and who committed suicide in the mid 1980 jumping in front of a train.
 
The song makes now, total sense.
 
Cooler than cool.

I think it is far, far deeper than just the media/paparazzi/fans
 
I think the proverbial monster Elizabeth created is Lana Del Rey
And I think (as my post in the Terence Loves you thread and elsewhere) says, Elizabeth might just be doing something
three others have time and again been said (rumored  to have done, and two of which are perhaps the two biggest names of all to her.
Elvis Presley and Jim Morrison (and the third being Andy Kaufman).
Only in this case, there is actual rebirth.
(and I am not a fan of the younger people saying each album is an era, however, end of an era may indeed be the birth of a new one.
 
(and if not, makes for a great movie, after all, In Hollywood... where everything is anything and anything can happen and often does
 
So in the album cover it is Elizabeth in photo her sister took, much like a regular person has a relative with them taking a picture), riding past the homes of the stars, stars like Lana Del Rey.
 
I am so thankful that I am along for the ride and will be anxiously awaiting the next chapter.
Can't think of anyone else ever, who could actually pull this off or at least get anyone (in this case me) to believe so much that it is
Much like Richard(Christopher Reeve back when he was young and beautiful) believed and Elise (Jane Seymour back when she was young & beautiful), not only believed, but said "is it you" in Somewhere in Time 1980 until the bad penny showed up (and what a soundtrack that had).
 
because in Holllllllywood as the song goes (and should be a bonus cut)

@exoticnightshade-
 
Was much aware of Lizzy very early on in NYC, much prior to LDR -but further-
 
I myself had major health problems due to excess and 100% yes. 2011-2012 her music spoke to me and got me through ever since, inspired me, helped me during exercise in pool to,
The BPMs in songs like Video Games and others  is the exact same in swimming strokes (how many times one hands hits the water when swimming a lap), and other exercises in a pool.
 
and I never expected to hear an artist so in synch with me ever again. It has been basically since 1985 since the last artist.(PSBs, with the punk/new wave, especially the UK and NYC acts at CBGBs and Max's Kansas City, Kate Bush, Elton, the 1960s (and knowing and having seen Nina Simone in concert), and going back to learn about older artists and more older country music on top of that (Ride could be a song Johnny Cash or Merle Haggard could do)
 
And am someone who (not dropping names but), who has seen all of the artists Lana references in concert at the height of their popularity so know the references from when the artists released
the song they reference.
 
Knowing now about what Terence she is referencing puts a lot altogether in total focus. It's almost like a jigsaw puzzle being completed or the old tv game show "Concentration"
 
and put it all together and EG is the single most unique artist, major artist to show up in decades.
With far more variety than others who might have had one or two unbelievable singles. (and she writes it, she writes it, something Elvis and Sinatra never did)

@@DeadAgainst-
not to mention High by the beach is a direct sequel reference to Put me in the movies (Little Girls) with the major word change in it
 
and Bowie and Lou Reed and Iggy Pop always were connected and Elizabeth has referenced Lou for years (and was going to record with him, touching down in NYC the almost exact hour he out of nowhere and unexpectly died before it happened. (Brooklyn Baby the most recent, of course the chorus of Born to die the song (Take a walk on the wide side) which of course is a Lou Reed line from "Walk on the wild side"
 
It has been what, 40 years since I last listened to the Bewlay Brothers song recently been listening to both Without You and Put me in the movies (not to mention Pawn shop) in the last month or so a lot of times.
 
Everything is connected. Like soul mates.

Not many people have actually suffered a loss.... Death usually doesn't touch people until they are later in life, at least the lucky ones. And it's good for them, but they will never know/never connect to certain Lana songs in a way that people who have truely suffered a loss do.

No idea. But "Terrence" being Terry makes a lot of sense, that's all.
 
The song TLY seems to take its thematic cues more directly from Lana's "Without You" though, like it's the sequel
