Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread
cherryblossoms replied to Elle's topic in Retired Pre-Release Threads
We still have 3-4 months between the album release and knowing her tendency to constantly mess with the mixing/tracklisting.. martyimscared.jpg She’s probably gonna scrap 1-2 of the tracks she has now in favor of 2-3 songs she wrote a week before the release because she just “couldn’t leave them off the record” lbr -
Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

Someone leak it so she scraps it like BAR and changes the title to a different track jk Sigh she’s had such pretty titles thus far. This is beyond cringe/immature and I don’t even see a connection between Norman Rockwell’s paintings and the music she’s put out so far (MAC/VB) considering they don’t even have that 50s vibe like IDWG, JFK, etc. but you do you boo And the cover art Why is she so lazy now LMFAO -
Praying that the next 8 minutes has a switch up in the melody and not some lazy ass instrumental or repetitive chorus/verse bc everything up until this point is perfect Omg that sound effect at 2:50 Serving weird sound in Architecture’s outro

Omg it’s actually almost 10 minutes long Omg the rest of the song is SOOOO much better than that snippet what the fuck

Imagine her making Yosemite the title track and scrapping it a second time while keeping it as the album title -

All I can think of when I watch the visuals for VB and MAC But I think she’s saving her budget for a more fully fleshed out idea for one of the real singles -

It’s from here and it’s a misquote https://www.dailydot.com/unclick/lana-del-rey-memes/ If you click the link to the Complex article, it doesn’t say anything about a mini-EP. In fact, the article says that VB was taken from her upcoming 2019 record so I don’t know where they got the idea of an EP from. -
It’s possible she could be referencing multiple people/things in one song. She does it in Architecture and some other tracks I’m sure. I was reading the lyric annotations for Video Games on Spotify and it says this “The verse was about the way things were with one person and the chorus was the way that I wish things had really been with another person, who I thought about for a long time.”

I definitely think songs like Shades of Cool, Is This Happiness, Fine China, etc. was about Barrie as well (especially considering they were all written during the same month). It’s not a stretch to think that they hit some rough spots behind the scenes in 2013 (pre-UV) before they officially ended things. Fine China is most likely about their failed engagement and Is This Happiness/Shades of Cool seem like a reference to Barrie’s depression like Black Beauty. Just some thoughts I had about some of the lines in those tracks: “You’re a hard man to love and I’m a hard woman to keep track of.” ‘She couldn’t say it to my face. And my plan to go back with her was dead.’ - Barrie talking about how Lana left him in London and broke up with him shortly afterwards. I remember someone asking Woodkid about why he hasn’t worked with Lana since BTD and he basically said she stopped responding to his texts/emails. Maybe she’s just the type of person to leave things at a standstill when she doesn’t know how to deal with it. She’s said before that she’s quite nomadic in nature, never in the same place all the time. This might explain why she labeled herself as someone hard to keep track of since she may not have been physically/emotionally available 24/7. “You like to rage, don’t do that” - Is This Happiness According to the posts above, Barrie drank a lot so I don’t think it would be too far fetched to say that this line references him in his intoxicated state. I feel like the bit about alcohol in the demo version of Beautiful People might be referencing these episodes too. Another interesting note between this bit from Barrie’s interview and the Beautiful People demo. “When you go out with someone who has a bit of a profile, it’s hard to not let things affect you. She’d phone me upset about something that had been written about her — that happened a lot in the beginning.” “You get so mad when I complain You think I'm crazy but I hear them talk they say my name They're fucking tired of” From newer songs, Architecture is a given and maybe the final version of Beautiful People? The color blue has become kind of synonymous with their relationship in my opinion. “My baby lives in shades of blue” “Darling you can’t let everything seem so dark blue” “All of my fine china, blue” So when I heard the ‘blue is the color of the shirt of the man I love’ and the following lines, I immediately thought of Barrie. This is just pure speculation on my end and I feel kind of bad talking about it because it’s really none of my business but considering how much her personal life is tied into her music and how much we know, it’s inevitable.
