Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

Some of these lyrics are so damn good...and the emotion in her voice. Whew Jack and Elizabeth snapped again.

ALSO I'M THE NUMBER 1 SERIAL KILLER STAN IN THE WORLD AND THE SOCIOPATH LINE MAKES ME SO HAPPY WITHOUT CONTEXT

[UltraHeroin 8,803]

When she started singing the ''is a new revolution'' bit, I thought it was going full acapela for the bridge, that would've been so good 

[ilovetati 15,299]

These lyrics are better than anything she ever wrote, bel air yglm and elvis included, change my fucking mind

I’d say the same if it weren’t for “black narcissist,” but maybe she’ll explain that she’s talking about herself or her depression

[LaserKitten 349]

There is no way the 'black narcissist' line is about another person, it makes zero sense in the context of the line or the song as a whole.

What a beautiful, heart-wrenching song. A lot of it seems inspired by the Beat poets, the kind of accumulation of images from Ginsberg's stuff. So great.

djfhdkjfh I used to be a HUUUGE potc fan so this is the first thing that came into my mind when I read this

 

 

Jack trying to convince Lana that an actually beautifully produced cover would fit the gorgeous song he made better than a poor badly cropped selfie

[mrborntolose 9,967]

this is incredible

[Flowerbomb 65,594]

THE COVER IS AWFUL BUT I NEED TO LISTEN TO THE SONG BRB

[YUNGATA 14,955]

I actually think the iPad line is kind of heartbreaking in context.

 

It's a nice line until she says ipad then I feel kind of thrown by it. Memes have ruined ipads for me

[annedauphine 35,923]

Idk for yall but I'm unbelievably relieved for Violet Bent Backwards Over The Grass. If it is this kind of prose poems I know she can write then I'm def buying a thousand and leaving one behind me when I walk as if I'm in Hop-o'-My-Thumb

[Moon River 2,365]

Hm I love Change but this one is a bit of a bore for me.

[Flowerbomb 65,594]

How do I listen to it? Help a girl out omg

[Psychedelic Pussy 30,109]

honestly I’m fully blown away by every song and snippet this era, my only wish is that the album is more than 11 tracks ugh

[YUNGATA 14,955]

I'm really excited for how this album is shaping up ~sonically~ it's so removed from the heavy electro beats and synths of LFL to more organic, acoustic sounds and instruments.

[daytonadeath 3,596]

oh god where can I hear it

[Flowerbomb 65,594]

oh god where can I hear it

[UltraHeroin 8,803]

I hope there's more guitar involved in the album, so far only MAC and VB have it. Cinnamon is piano and then beats and synths, Sylvia is just piano, HTD is either just piano, or piano and beats and syths, HIAB is clearly gonna be just piano as well (we fucking heard almost 2 whole minutes of it and it was just piano). I mean, all these songs are great, but personally, I want more guitar pleeeeeasseeee. 

In your car seems to have some so I'm hopeful

[Psychedelic Pussy 30,109]

The bit where she says “hi, dad”, fucking TIM COOK appears in my head bc of the iPad reference lmfaooo

[ilovetati 15,299]

Oh, duh. Black narcissist - the devil off her back

[Say Yes to Heaven 27,530]

Black Narcissist = Depression

 

Depression is usually depicted as being black, and it only thinks of itself. Lana is combatting it by just having a fun time
