Well, I've already listened to the whole thing and I just can say this is truly and definitely her best album:

 

 

1. The greatest

2. Love Song

3. California

4. Cinnamon Girl

5. How To Disappear

6. Mariners Apartment Complex

7. Fuck It I Love You (the version we have on Spotify etc)

8. The Next Best American Record

9. Venice Bitch

10. Happiness Is A Butterfly

11. Norman Fucking Rockwell

12. Bartender

13. Doin' Time

14. hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have - but I have it

 

Anyway, there's not a single bad song on this album. I adore Doin' Time and it's placed at 13 and hope is still a great song. How To Disappear is amazing. I prefer the piano one but this version is still nice. The last part of the song is really powerful and touching. Cinnamon Girl was previously my 3 in the LQ leak but California is a fucking masterpiece in HQ, is like The Blackest Day on steroids. Love Song and The greatest are my most loved ones. Happiness Is A Butterfly in HQ has snatched my wig and I still had to place it at 10.

In conclusion, this album is everything I needed from Lana right now. I don't know what direction she will take for her upcoming album but it's gonna be complicated for her to create a body of work better than this (despite the fact that Ultraviolence seemed to be never surpassed).

damn lana really blessed us w this album u guys.

that said, does anyone else think "the greatest" chorus sounds exactly like "i'm not the only one" by sam smith? (fa-a-acing the greatest/you sa-a-ay im crazy)

still one of my faves from the album tho lmao

Great album and had to potential to top UV, but there are a few things I wish they changed:

 

- keep TNBAR as it was (the new lyrics are not good at all)

- Mariners should have been the closer 

- FIILY should have stayed the same

- HTD should have been a piano song (production is bad and there are not transitions between chorus and verses - everything changes abruptly, it also sounds like a christmas reject)

- Love Song ending is not the greatest. such an epic opening tho

- Cinnamon Girl should have been titeld just cinnamon!

- Venice Bitch should have been in the middle of the album

 

Other than that it's a solid album!

Haven't listened to the leak yet but can y'all confirm if the album version of FIILY sucks?
