Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

[Terrence Loves Me 72,664]

what if this whole time, lana is being silent about the album because she DOES want to do a random release to surprise us. like all this time, they have been producing the cd’s, vinyls, etc. in order for it to be properly be released whenever she wants. and once production is finished, that’s when she’ll drop the album. no warning. march could STILL be a possibility if this is the case. maybe thats what she’s waiting for and why it’s such a secret now. am i being unrealistic here??

 

(but it is still messy that she posted all those snippets n released two singles all the way back in september.)

This is possible but wishful thinking, i dont think Lana would be that nice

not march 29 though, billie still has that release spot

honesly i think the album will drop only in the summer... and thats its me being generous

[violets 11,896]

why do i feel like she's tryna release on the same day as one of these pop girls just so she doesn't get a #1 and gets kind of swept over... this girl is trying so hard to fall off

Challenge time! Since it seems that we're not getting much in terms of Lana's future music, let's focus on the past, but in a positive light. Since many people seem to think LFL doesn't flow very well, what if we tried to re-order the tracklist, take out some songs, maybe add a few unreleased. I did this with TUN and Sweetener, I combined the best of the two albums, and imo the album I made is 10x better than the messes that the originals are.

 

Anyways, if anyone's interested, maybe this could be something fun to fill in this dry period with!

My concept is continuing on with the slightly witchy theme, and I'm focussing more on the folk-y genres of the album rather than the hip-hop. (I'll make a lil EP out of the more trappy music as well). It's not quite finished, because I don't have the time rn to listen to all the songs in this order and figure out the transitions but here they are going off my mind.

 

1. Love

2. 13 Beaches

3. Cherry

4. Beautiful People Beautiful Problems (feat. Stevie Nicks)

5. Yosemite

6. Architecture

7. Tomorrow Never Came (feat. Sean Ono Lennon)

8. Roses Bloom For You

9. Wild One (chill folk-rock-y)

10. Heroin - Interlude

11. Woodstock (with slightly different, more low-key production. Is about 3:10)

12. Change

13. Get Free

 

Thoughts?

Sounds like fun!

 

I really like the second part of LFL, some some slower more melancholic acoustic songs would be a better fit to make it a full album,

 

1. Heroin

2. God Knows I Tried

3. Flipside

4. Chelsea Hotel No.2

5. The Blackest Day

6. Best American Record

7. Beautiful People, Beautiful Problems

8. Fine China

9. Change

10. 13 Beaches

11. Starry Eyed

12. Black Beauty

Wow this looks great! The perfect bridge between UV, Honeymoon and NFR, yet still a great album in its own

I feel those songs are ok together and would have fit well on an album in that order going from happier to sadder to more hopeful.

same lol. coming up with my own theories and delusionally believing them is the only thing keeping me sane right now.

Is it true Cinnamon has been turned into a piano interlude?

[lil aerosol 2,297]

nvm lol 

[ArtDecoDelRey 15,283]

Where did you hear this? Even in this messy era, I highly doubt she would do that considering much of the album appears to be piano-driven

I think it was a joke

... So when are we going to start lanaboards revolution 2.0 and spam ben and ed again? fact is, if ya'll want success you gotta go out and make it happen. Success doesn't just fall into your skinny gay laps. Its time to stop whining and take action.

 

i know i got into trouble for being apart of this before but did rosa parks get up when she was being mistreated by kacey musgraves on the bus? no she did not.

[Nobody 21,503]

I'm pretending Lana is currently pregnant and experiencing morning sickness, dizziness, and has lots of things to prepare for the baby like it's room and going to classes and seeing doctors with her bf so she's busy with that and thats why she's can't releasing anything yet, because she wants to properly promote her work, and get ready for the baby

 

What's she going to name it?
