Sorry but

Jack Antonoff is one ugly individual. He's got such a punchable face. Also hearing him speak... my poor virgin ears

 

[West Coast 44,956]

 

A man of many talents. 

 

Imagine if he had work on NFR.

Why did Cinnamon Girl age like milk after like two weeks... it’s a conspiracy I’m actually interested in

The underwhelming lack of bass.

The underwhelming lack of bass.

The version Lana recorded in her car was amazing. Wish we had that bass on the released one.

[Ocean Boulevard 39,371]

Leak  the fucking Cinnanom Girl Demo version with more bass and the other versions of Love Song!

 

I only heard a little bit bass in CG  as I played the NFR! CD  in my car but currently I connect my spotify with my car and I hear barely some bass in CG

 

Lana maybe choosed a more stripped down version of CG so that it would fit better in the album.

[Psychedelic Pussy 29,304]

I think it just sounded like it had a lot of bass bc it was playing in her car

[West Coast 44,956]

Am I the only one that finds these year end (and decade end) reviews/critics to be the most absurd, but also hilarious?

 

The funniest part to me was reading in the year end list Pitchfork made, something along the line of: "she ignored the haters and plowed forward". As if those haters were not Pitchfork writers! What ratings did they give Born To Die again? 5.5? Didn't they also call the album something along the line of a "fake orgasm"?

With a lot of these publications, I feel like critics are trying to push down our throat this narrative that Lana started off as an inauthentic-untalented-rich-Daddy's-little-girl-nobody, but got slowly, but surely, increasingly better and more "honest" with each album, and Norman Fucking Rockwell! just happen to be her realest album, at the same time acting like her other albums are completely worthless. Also, acting as if it now sits on top of her discography. I have to laugh.
