[TheBoss 13,507]

girl no its not.... what???

It's a bunch of trees

[Terrence Loves Me 72,692]

I just keep thinking of the title as "Norman FUCKING Rockwell" as in Norman is banging somebody named Rockwell. Sorry if i ruined it for anyone

Y'all and Lana, please forgive me. I didn't like the song during the first listen, and now I live for it. Venice Bitch really is THAT bitch. It's giving me life, OH MY GOD.

[djpumpkin 147]

Venice B is incredible!!

[Tristesse 1,765]

I swear I've been listening to the track for at least 10 times now and I just cannot stop smiling, it makes me so happy I cannot even believe it. It soothes my soul just as it needed to be. It makes me feel at peace with the whole world and with myself. I may be overreacting and may laugh when I re-read this post in a few days but still. She did that, after the hell of a disappointment LFL has been for me - I had completly lost interest. She's such an important artist. She has such a way to convey feeling and make them so much relatable.

I hate this album title and I hate that Venice Bitch is 9:36 but the song is incredible and everything else so far has been great so I'm conflicted

Which magazines do you think she'll cover? Personally, I would love for Marfa again, The Gentlewoman, Complex, Fader, Galore (!!!!!!!), Clash, Wonderland, Pop, Notion, Playboy... I would love more music, artsy or personal / indie based magazines than pure fashion magazines, and more laid back shoots. Although if she goes full glamour for kicks and giggles I wouldn't mind but from what I heard and saw I don't think it would fit the tone of the record

[PARADIXO 32,940]

i am DYING this is what i have ALWAYS wanted from her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

i LOVE both songs. loving this era so far.

 

also guys not everything has to be monumental. the artwork fits the whole vibe.

Personally I just realised it looks like Elle was angry af when she wrote the name of the thread like "ugh can't believe this bitch, Norman fucking Rockwell AGAIN"

Two critically acclaimed tracks already, phew! Hold onto your wigs, sisters. I see a Grammy on the horizon.

[bored 7,938]

Is it just me or does this still not feel real ahaha?

 

I was underwhelmed by LFL (but still enjoy it) and then when she teased HIAB, I really thought it was all over. Yet here we are, she's more herself than she's ever been and this could be her greatest body of work arggggggggh

[Harmonia 1,413]

nevermind I just got to the part in VB where the aliens are invading and those noises sis... just ruined the song for me

[Chocolate Eyes 548]

Sounds like the collabs with Stevie Nicks and Sean in LFL have rubbed off on her, judging by that soft folk/rock sound. I could imagine Stevie singing MAC. Ever since UV, every album released afterward has sounded like a continuation of the previous. I'm still not over LFL, but I am definitley looking forward to NFR. 

[summercummer 377]

i can't even explain how excited i am for this album omg i feel like i felt back when shades of cool/brooklyn baby dropped

Only if Interscope stops submitting her in the pop categories, which they probably won't.

But wait guys you sure is “nothing gold can stay” ? Bcs I listen “nothing cold can stay” x.x

[American Bottom 16,228]

Thank you to whomever called it Norman Reedus bc now I can't stop calling it that

 

Isnt that from the Simpsons? Lmao

[PARADIXO 32,940]

this really does feel like a dream omg. also the weather is amazing today and it really fits the whole aesthetic dead

 

venice bitch will be an amazing tour outro

 

ALSO it kinda reminded me of Madonna's Music. the mixture between acoustic guitars + synthesizers + idgaf attitude
