Lmao did they really sit her next to A$AP Rocky after he cut her collab from his album? Harsh

Really? They have the same 3 writers and she references "werewolf" and casting a spell (something a witch would do) in the song?

why did she only start saying this after ppl started making fun of it tho           

Just discovered the bop known as I Didn't Just Come Here to Dance and I am living

I listed those credits and I took them straight from what was listed on the inner sleeve of the vinyl release. Whatever is listed on there is correct

Oops, my fault, I was on my phone so I immediately thought it was 'Indecision' who came after '2shy', but after listening again it's 'Touch', her debut single.

I get what you're saying but the execution was well........just awful

"White Light" literally made me a full-on stan, it's her best song and one of my favorite songs.

She has very quickly become one of my favorite new artists. I love her sound. Its the direction I was expecting Sky Ferreira to go in after Everything Is Embarrassing (which actually makes sense because she lists Dev Hynes/Blood Orange as an influence). I also love that she produces/co-produces her own stuff and how involved she is with the live instrumentation in her shows. I'm really excited for her debut

I CANT FUCKING BREATHE LMFAOOOO
 
This repetition is worse than How Can I
 
I cant believe I was hyped up for a leak and THIS happens

Just quickly listened to that "Three Years" video and that arrangement is SO gorgeous. May need to add it to my library.

VEVO

The concept comes from the idea that the "Badlands" represent her mind (playing into the fact that she's bipolar and struggled with it throughout her teenage years). The concept is less apparent on the deluxe because Tracks like Hurricane, Strange Love, & I Walk the line deviate from it, but its essentially her navigating though the different mental struggles she's faced by conceptualizing them into songs. The album itself bounces through highs (Roman Holiday) and the lows (colors) much like something someone with mental illness (or really anyone just to a less drastic degree) would experience. The best example of this would be Control where the lines bounce from symptoms of mania ("I paced around for hours on empty, I jumped at the slightest of sounds") and depression ("I couldn't stand the person inside me, I turned all the mirrors around). While I'm obviously overanalyzing it, I think its a pretty solid concept album given that its the debut from a 20 year old and she wrote it with a relatively small amount of people (the tracks were done with a lot of different producers yet have common lyrical themes leading me to believe she actually did write a lot of it). I think people are trashing the album because they don't like her as a person (which I can see why) but I don't think the album is bad by any means.

loved the album overall. roman holiday & young god are the weak tracks to me. gasoline's chorus doesn't (completely) live up to it's verses, still fucking love it tho [love aggressive halsey]. i wish she would've stuck to the tour versions of colors & control. control is by far my favorite (tour version & this version, it grew on me). i walk the line is so beautiful; she's the only person to successfully cover johnny cash and do it JUSTICE. would be cool if there was a badlands movie. i like colors pt 2 [tbh i thought it was going to be a spoken word piece]. on my aoty list.
 
also @@KillForLove i love you.

I'm actually shocked at how much I like the album. Nothing about the album is groundbreaking, but I think its a pretty well put together concept album from a 20 year old. The lyrics are kind of over the top I would agree but we are on a Lana Del Rey forum so who are we to talk
