Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

[Terrence Loves Me 71,699]

The photoshop seriously cheapened it and made it less authentic

[Crimson and Clover 22,120]

Are ya'll really trashing the VB cover? It's one of the prettiest photos i've seen. Just because lana isn't on the cover doesn't make it bad, i have to laugh

    it looks like a picture my mom would take with her Samsung Note back in 2011

[Make me your Dream Life 83,211]

yeah something about HtDs melody distinctly reminds me of Because of You, even Sylvia almost gave me a migraine cause i kept trying to shove BoY into the melody it sounds so similar

I think it might be the pacing, the snare drums, and the synths, the sound and even progression of it, like solid note notes, transcending up like it does at the BoY chorus. The sub-jazzy vibes too

 

and crazy enough, I actually think that Sylvia sounds more like a somber version of that Cherry Blossom snippet we got waaay back before.

Still better than this

thats true anything can top THAT  her fillers..that filter...UGHHHHH i will never get over how bad it is

[Make me your Dream Life 83,211]

the instrumental reminded me of the Get Free chorus

I think I get what you're saying, like how soft it is maybe, but I actually always sort of tied Get Free's chorus with "Last Christmas" idk, it just sounds so similar to me

LB should be renamed ControversialOpinionsBoard bc wow

[Make me your Dream Life 83,211]

Yes! Also its vibe reminds me of TV in Black & White aka my all time favourite unreleased song.

 

Also someone on IG compared its bridge to Us Against The World.

 

Shit I’m so excited for this album I want her to release it in December 

Deffo that perilous bond/jazz sound is there. TV in BW is amazing, it's so lulling, I'd always think it was some sort of LiB pre-variation and would listen to this slowed version of it on yt (it's been taken down)

 

I just want another single LOL, but I get u

I am really excited for the title track, I'm getting either major production vibes OR something soft acoustic but a career highlight nonetheless

As long as the lyrics are not "Norman Fucking Rockwell" x25 I will be happy

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA IT PROBABLY IS THO........

[Beautiful Loser 46,068]

What if she never mentions Norman Rockwell in the title track, just how she never mentions a "cruel world" in UV's opening track?

[Thunder Revenant 20,694]

Would be weird to randomly refer him without any context. The connection between Lana's lament in the lyrics and the song title are pretty obvious in Cruel World.

Well she already did in Venice Bitch

[clementines 9,668]

i can really see her re-doing BAR for NFR now like.....it makes sense and would be iconic

[ultrababy 3,445]

Well she already did in Venice Bitch

What? She literally repeats Venice Bitch throughout the whole song.

Lolito get your facts straight

You're so stupid, I meant she already mentioned Norman Rockwell in Venice Bitch

ultrababy get your eyes fixed

[Make me your Dream Life 83,211]

Not to sound like a bitch or anything, but I'd rather have something fresh. No leftovers from past eras etc. I think every album deserves that at least. Maybe she can release older songs as standalone songs, but I'd want NfR to be something that we've really never already heard before.

 

I mean there are deluxe versions, but yeah hope the main record is all new

It looks like it was chosen randomly from a camera roll like a recent meme you send to a friend who's not responding and she sent it just like that to her TAP group chat standing in traffic
