The whole Kanye thing was just unconscious opportunism. It still hurts that I had to agree with Azealia Banks about something

I read this in Peter Griffin's voice  but so true bestie 

and we're too tired to even argue about piano songs 
 
BB is already in her flop era. I feel so bad for her 

Omg the piano songs. C'mon, give us some guitars, drums and violins. I can't believe she will have a 3rd album in a row with just piano songs. She's losing fans. I couldn't listen to COCC even as background music, it's so unseasoned. 
 
I think she wasn't even trying to make a hit with BB. I heard that those three songs were just demos. If she wanted, she could've promoted them but she didn't on purpose. Maybe she's planning to promote it once the album is completely finished with a hopefully new artwork. 

where is our good sis @Lustformoney y’all bullied her OUT when she was one of the only funny people on here pls revive this dying thread  

Rock Candy Sweet was better name. Blue Banisters sounds lowkey boring.

yall know damn well she’ll make her tickets more expensive, exclusively wear flip flops and grandma dresses, be an hour late to sing lmly, btd, blue jeans, ss, for free, 5 random country flop covers and end the "show" with off to the races where she’ll stay mute for 90% of the song 

wish Lana belted those instead of relying on falsetto in the riff/run towards the end of WW,

I can't really remember the track, because I only listened twice, but from what I can remember, some people may find this one of her worst tracks for a reason.
 
If you erase the emotion and that we care for her, BB is not a great song musically nor lyrically. Talking about trauma and healing is not enough to make good music. It was nice, but nothing outstanding 

You are not Regina George. This is not mean girls.

yeah i haven’t warmed up to it at all. the song is nice but it feels more like a closing to the album than an introduction 

Fr Blue Banisters is such a boring title oml

at this point i am on my hands and knees praying it’s still called rock candy sweet. that title is just too iconic 
 

Yeah bb is fine but when you have a great title like Rock Candy Sweet you dont switch it up with an alright less evocative album title unless you dont want it to do well

I hate when people say that only now Lana is showing herself and at the begging of her career she displayed the image that her record company wanted. They're practically stating what the media said about her when she debuted.
 
And I do believe that she has a persona, everybody has one. She changed because she got older and have other views, was exposed to different things, acquired other tastes, have new friends... Not because her persona is fading

The same happened to me. Get free was the last song I would sign "of Lana Del Rey". Lots of hate around LFL and yet I think it's really Lana's last album. Is it wanted? Her life has changed in the meantime, it's true. But her latest projects are really boring. And it bothers me that people praise her latest albums as "her best" when she seems musically extinct to me. I think it blossoms in this direction but I hope one day that she will return to the sources, Ultraviolence or BTD but I can dream.
Nevertheless on the personal side I think she needs to breathe and leave the old Lana who must represent all her problems, and as you say we feel a form of healing of trauma with her last 3 songs which sound like be very important in her life so that she reveals it as well.
But yeah, I miss iconic Lana too. She makes me nostalgic for a time that we all lived by living with her in a certain way. Time goes by, we get sad and our favorite singers get a little more generic.

At the beginning of her career she was this worried person and modeled by her stylists and all that, I was bad for her but her shyness made her so special. She really applied herself to singing and performed unique performances. It is true that in recent years she is no longer in this phase of anxiety but the fact that she does not care has made this magic go away little by little, I hope that one day she will do more concerts of fragility.

I feel similarly. I've had a really hard time connecting with anything post-NFR besides a few songs off of COTCC. I've listened to COTCC and the 3 new singles a lot, but it still feels like I can't figure out my opinion of them. Like I keep listening, but at the same time, I can't decide if I even like what I'm listening to or not. I obviously don't dislike it or I wouldn't keep listening, but it just isn't connecting for me. It's really odd, especially when it's an artist who I've instantly clicked and connected with on a deep level since I first listened to her.

hoping this doesn't come across harsh and/or selfish but....
 
stage fright, slightly uncomfortable, deer in the headlights, worried about how she sounds and performs Lana >>>> literally not giving a fuck, doing the bare minimum, forgetting she's even on stage Lana
 
i don't wish anxiety on her whatsoever so this isn't 100% serious of course, but i miss when she actually cared about her performances  even if it occasionally made her voice a little shaky it was still captivating to watch!

i love her unreleased bubblegum pop songs 

NO. This is how we got these last three singles and its so obvious.... i need lana to stop trying to fit every god damn word ever into a bar  its so hard for someone with a tiny brain like myself to comprehend on first listen

I’ve been saying this shit ever since these tracks came out. I guess it’s because I’m so used the great mastering and engineering of Lana’s past work. Even NFR is better than this.
 
There is nothing wrong with skeletal production. That’s not my problem. My issue is when skeletal production sounds cheap and the EQ is out of place. And unfortunately, it’s more noticeable. 
 
Call me a hater, that’s okay. I can’t help that my ears can detect garbage. 

New songs are still underwhelming for me... i think the piano sounds cheap tbh

I know she dOeSn'T oWe uS aNyThInG but Jesus Christ. If she's trying to bore us to death she's doing a fine job of it

If Wildflower Wildfire is Lana’s idea of ‘revenge’ just because she mentioned her mother was a bitch (which we already knew to some degree) then I’m very disappointed. She needs to go off the rails and scream and shout, you don’t get your revenge in a piano ballad.
