Norman Fucking Rockwell - Post-Release Discussion Thread + Poll

[cherriesinthespring 5,486]

idk if you guys already discussed about this, but what's with that vid lana uploaded on her fb page?

 

I'd love another homemade video, but a good one this time, not just like the ultraviolence one

There’s discussion in the last few pages about it. Chuck playing with a camera again

 

The fake piano playing has me dead but I do think the vid is cute

MAC still SNAPS Y'ALL

catch a wave and take in the THICCNESS

Wtf is on the back cover? A lizard? 

[cherriesinthespring 5,486]

The part with the wedding couple in the glasses made me sad for her. I couldn’t make out what else was in the glasses

Apparently it’s a butterfly

That (very short) mv made me think it might be about Prince Pasta. 

 

There was the wedding couple, a couple on the beach at sunset (they did a photoshoot on the beach at sunset iirc), and a couple who looked like they were on holidays in swimsuits (they holidayed in Italy a lot iirc). 

 

But he isn't 6'2 and I'm sure she did love him, so those parts don't fit. 

 

But it's probably about aspects of a few of her past relationships rather than just one.

Anyone notices a difrerence between the Cinnamon Girl snippet lana posted on IG and the studio version. The snippet has less orchestra and more bass in the chorus. I wanted that one

Same ... I miss that bass

[White Hot 527]

While I absolutely loved some of them there were quite a bunch of LFL songs I never learned to enjoy (particularly the ones with long titles) but NFR is just such an instant love, there's no roachellas songs I would instantly dislike or feel the need to skip to get to something better. I feel like with every listen it has a stronger impact on me

[God&Monster 1,092]

Replace HTD with the live version (the album version is completely different song for me).

Replace The  Next BAR with BAR (BAR is thousands timer better)

Skip Doin' Time (its a great song, but it does not belong to this album)

 

Then I have a perfect 13 tracks album.

Uhm, no thanks. NFR! is perfect as it is and those 3 tracks slaaaaay.

[Araby 676]

Apparently NFR is paced for a #3 debut on the Billboard 200 with units of 75-85K, 50-60K are pure sales

 

(( it's such an outstanding album, I hate to see it not place #1. Wish it had been slated for a different week.

[gatadelrey 4,617]

How many songs do you think the set will be for tour? I hope she sings the whole NFR album.

[SparkleJumpropeNoose 8,750]

literally gonna be the same as she's been doing for the past three years except with two NFR songs added

[Joao 18]

does anyone else feels like happiness is a butterfly had been added to another song like, literally?

 

the pre-chorus looks like it shouldn't be there

 

but it sounds good tho idk 

[ultrababy 3,445]

Went to Spain on a vacation and I couldn’t keep up with the thread. Now I’m trying to but I’m dying to share my thoughts on the album. I love almost every song on it but How To Disappear. Seriously, what were they thinking? They’ve ruined such a beautiful song with amazing lyrics.. I much prefer the live version. It’s Coachella all over again.

 

Venice Bitch, California and Love song are the holy trinity of this record in my opinion. I’ve heard a lot of negative reviews about Love song but it just sounds so intimate and when she sings “I would like to think that you would stick around- you know that I’d just die to make you proud” it makes me so emotional. I cried the first time listening to these lyrics.

 

Cinnamon was very underwhelming to me.. maybe because we already almost had the whole track before it’s release. I like the outro but I wish there were more lines we haven’t heard already.

 

Ps. As I’m writing this, HTD started playing: I actually love the intro.. it sounds fun. But the second half is just unbearable with the jingle bells all over it and you can barely hear her voice. Wtf

[HunterSThompson 4,646]

Every era I love to follow this little fact, I'm not sure if anyone pointed it out yet but she's (unknowingly?) keeping the trend of opening the album with strings or guitar, and alternating it by era:

 

BTD: Strings (song: BTD)

UV: Guitar (song: Cruel World)

HM: Strings (song: HM)

LFL: Guitar (song: Love)

NFR: Strings (song: NFR)

 

And she's alternates whether or not the title track is an opener or the second song!

 

I wonder if it's an accident or not

[Hundred Dollar Bill 21,805]

HTD is perfect & I will offset every negative post about that masterpiece with my obnoxious opinion!!!

[White Hot 527]

but it sounds good tho idk 

Personally it sounds like it could be split into two or three song choruses cause the entire song is kinda oddly structured but it's still enjoyable

Daily reminder that FIILY last minute was recorded in the Olympus to feed us mortals with grace and perfection.

[LanaCharts 1,980]

Tool's sales... Omg... I thought that if we tried really hard maybe we'd get close but 260k copies? Definitely no way

I wasn’t expecting more than 200k tbh

this could be true if the intro of Love wasn't a bass actually
