Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

[Beautiful Loser 48,731]

Wait. Maybe I’m delulu but the melodies for

 

“All of the guys tell me lies but you don’t you just crack another beer”

 

And

 

“I’ve been tearing around in my fucking nightgown 24/7 Sylvia Plath”

 

sound kinda similar?

[HunterSThompson 4,646]

I can’t find a link to the song anywhere

Blue Jeans single cover vs Sylvia single cover

 

 

 

 

Like...I know to some people single covers don't mean much, but to me it does especially when you know Lana's single covers used to SLAY.

Honestly it's like she's not even trying? Single covers are what draw people to listen to the song, it's like what they say "it's all about presentation".

If I saw the Sylvia cover without knowing about Lana, nothing would make me want to listen to it because it literally looks like it'll be a song recorded on an iPhone and uploaded to Bandcamp or something...

 

But thank god the song itself is a masterpiece so maybe I'll let it slide

 

Edit: Happy 600 pages gays!

ya'll still didn't get the thing that she's releasing music for HERSELF, so ya'll 'why' or 'if' just going nowhere.

 

love it

Wait, this song is GORGEOUS

Azealia makes everything about race so why not make her even angrier.

because it sounds racist. I don't think that people have to be racist to piss off azealia

[True Romance 6,195]

This song is beautiful.

[Beautiful Loser 48,731]

If singles were still sold as CDs in record stores, and if I didn’t know about Lana, I’d never pick up Sylvia Plath. That cover looks like some kiddo have made on MS Paint and burnt a homemade song on a CD.

The instagram snippets couldn't capture how good this song sounds. I expect this to happen with every other song so far 

[daytonadeath 3,596]

can I be honest about the cover?
Yeah, it's not stunning, but it does fit the music. Lana is doing a more raw aesthetics, she is striving for another group of fans. Lana doesn't want to be a popstar anymore, she's going back to her alternative/indie roots. It's a personal song, and a selfie is way more personal than a glamorous photoshoot. She made a personal cover for a personal song. That's good.
If we look at the cover without listening to the song, it's bad. But, if we're looking at the cover while we're thinking about the song, it makes a lot of sense

Beyonce uses "white alligators" in her song. You can find "white crackers" in every rap song.

[fl0ridakil0s 3,959]

she can release music for herself and still make a great cover art... I really don't get it, she's so beautiful. I really liked the MAC cover with her natural beauty, but this is just lazy

A white person being called a 'white cracker' isn't racist tho...

why not

[Beautiful Loser 48,731]

I mean, I wasn’t expecting much after those lazy videos of MAC and VB and their cover arts but gurl... a selfie?

[loleetah 4,084]

The single cover.... oh Lana 

Aside from whether or not it fits the song (which I don't think it does) it's just lazy. It's blatantly a random selfie she took when she was bored, it's not even framed nicely, it's cropped in the exact way an iPhone selfie is. It's just not a nice picture. Couldn't she at least have Chuck take a picture of her? I know she wants to go for a more unfiltered approach but this just reeks of "i don't feel like putting effort in"

ITS called ART... have you seen the balenciaga triple s?? this bitch is bringing the same to music.. a true pioneer. Fake beauty is OVER.. 2019 is all about authenticity and effortless talent
