Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

[cloverhoney 801]

It's 2 years today since we got the LFL cover (came up on my facebook memories lol)

[Flowerbomb 65,558]

Rockwell is def more iconic than NFR.

[ilovetati 15,295]

Abigail deleted the tweet and liked a reply saying it’s not a criticism of Norman, but supposedly a concept record discussing the male ego.

I hope she doesn't change the title, she's fought hard for some of her musical choices and they were all (mostly) successes. 

[Chiunzhan 1,472]

I don't get it... who's Abigail? What did she tweet? what did Lana say about the album's title???

[heroindealer 8,270]

That’s what she gets for not dropping it

[sweetie 6,615]

I already see some people going after Abigail her follicles on Twitter. Can we not? That's so tacky.  

[ArtDecoDelRey 15,263]

Wait can someone post what she said? My computer doesn't let me click on attachments like that

also why are none of her albums on spotify anymore... I'm-

I imagined this would happen. Reading "Norman Fucking Rockwell" makes you think she's taking a dig at him but Lana made it clear the title is more like "this guy thinks too much of himself he thinks he's norman fucking rockwell or sum" and that concept is great tbh  hope she doesn't change it

That tweet is old like September...She’s performed and released songs since then. I’m telling you guys it’s other artists and this poetry book. She has shows lined up in the summer. We know she likes summer releases or end of. To me it!s obviously not shelved and coming. We are just Impatient.

Norman Fuckyourestate Rockwell

[Psychedelic Pussy 29,263]

Well... Norman Rockwell is by no means a nobody. Let's not get carried away.

Outside of the US sis. He may be a US icon but I can guarantee a LOT of people outside of the US have/had zero clue who he is

[Crimson and Clover 22,154]

It probably isn’t but imagine if those pictures she’s posting before and after Never to Heaven are part of the album cover??

[Lanalouis1 2,510]

I bet they'll make up part of the liner notes

[ThisIsRusko 1,521]

i mean i think i would like a name change for the album just because of the sound of it BUT i want Lana to name the album how ever she wants! she knows whats best for it

Y'all keep saying you "can't copyright" a name. You're confusing copyright with trademark, and they're not the same thing. People can trademark their name (Kim Kardashian, Christina Aguilera, basically any celebrity). People can trademark expressions ("That's hot!" "let's get ready to rumble"). Tim Tebow has even trademarked "tebowing" and that's an action!

 

I've warned you before and i'll do it again, because you didn't believe me, and then someone went and turned it into an April Fool's joke:

 

NORMAN ROCKWELL IS TRADEMARKED.

 

The Rockwell family is threatening to sue Interscope if they release the album with the name without their approval, or without an (exorbitant) payment for the use of the name.  Lana won't change the name, and Interscope won't release it unless she changes the name, because they don't want to pay any licenses to use the name because the licenses they want will eat up all the profits of what they expect to make from album sales.

 

The album is mastered and ready to go otherwise.

 

Bye, Felicias (again).

It was like “jack Kerouac didn’t have to name a book t.s. fucking Elliot to be cool Lana so get off Norman’s back” I paraphrased because I can’t remEmber exactly and don’t feel like going back.

 

Her albums are on my Spotify, what country are you in?

[viagra 1,642]

Oh nevermind 

 

[cherriesinthespring 5,486]

The post is missing on her twitter line. Did she delete it? Or is it fake?

Someone a few posts up said she deleted it and liked a reply explaining it was a concept about the male ego not a dig on Norman or something

If it's trademarked then how come that other band made a song and titled it 'Norman Rockwell'??
