The only reason we consider HM (and UV to some extent) a flop is because of the success of BtD. If Lana hadn't had so much hype surrounding her back in 2012, BtD wouldn't have had so much success. We all know that, it's pretty much fact in the Lana community. She just doesn't have that hype surrounding her any more, so we can't expect her to be in the BB200 in 3 years' time with HM. There was something about Video Games that captivated audiences in late 2011 and HbtB just can't replicate that with its recycled 2009 cheap trap beat. It's not like Lana splashed millions on the production/promotion of any of her releases, so we can't expect her to be losing money. Lana knows that she's not going to appeal to the masses and, although a little promotion would help sales, she isn't made to sell mass records. She's probably already made a profit on HM, so it's all good for her. It's only considered a flop because it's sold less than we expected it to and, for some reason, we expected it to sell copies out of the stratosphere.

Honestly, it can't keep being pushed back. It has to be released at some point.

I was genuinely really impressed. I can kinda understand why Billboard gave it a 4.5. I don't actually think there's any filler, just some songs that are a little weaker.

ngl i feel responsible for this thread falling to shit over the past page I'm sorry, this is something I should've said in private and not taken out to the forums

Was not ready for Father wow

The fact that not once have I ever received a respectful or kind reply from you disproves that point right there. For that matter, I've never seen you post a positive reply to anyone! Darn, you just beat me to it!

You don't discuss though, that's the thing. You argue, you contradict and you slate. There's no heat here, you're just argumentative and want to get your point across a million times with a million different reasons because, clearly, you think your opinion means a ton more than the rest of ours do. If there is any heat, you're creating it. If you want to make my (not actually that) long answer short, I never said once "who the fuck are you", I asked what your negativity problem is. If anything, you've just proved my point because you haven't actually answered the question I posed to you.

@@leaked_version I've been trying to avoid saying this but I can't hold back any longer: seriously, what is your problem? Honestly, are you only here to argue against people who don't agree with your opinion what is clearly the only true way to see things? "Honeymoon is a flop and if you say otherwise you're wrong. TBD isn't a career highlight because I SAID SO (but I'll pass it off as sarcasm later when I'm getting hate for it)." You're so negative - can you not say something positive without tacking something negative onto the end? What the fuck is your problem? This is a place where we discuss Lana, one of our favourite artists. I honestly think (bare in mind I've only been on the boards for ~ 2 months) that you're like the anomaly in a science experiment that drags all of the data down (except you're the negativity that drags the positivity of this otherwise lovely community). Have you always been like this? Do you genuinely spend your time on the LanaBoards (pretty much 8 months out of the past ~ 2 years) contradicting everyone and trying to get them to see your opinion the only way things can be interpreted? Maybe I'm just extremely naive and you're the biggest troll in the history of forever, but I think the moment I realised you weren't was when you told me that Lana was a pop singer signed to a major label. That's honestly the most vague thing you could ever say. That's the same as saying Lana's a fish in an ocean. If you genuinely spend all of your time in these forums slating Lana, you seriously need to evaluate what you spend your time doing.

For You sounded like the best based on the iTunes previews but I'm guessing it's not? @@PARADIXO

so..... it's like a 6.5/10?

Good try (: you had me fooled ha-ha you were obviously being sarcastic from the start

You can't just dictate which songs are her career highlights. That's the point of a personal opinion. Just because you evidently adore these songs doesn't mean that everyone should agree with you and it certainly doesn't mean that they are Lana's career highlights, period. Your opinion isn't all that. It means as much as everyone else's opinion around here. For the record, I think TBD is a career highlight too.
