"Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass" Spoken Word Poetry Album - Pre-Release Thread

[Ocean Boulevard 38,923]

I got the feeling that she delayed it so that she can complety forget about it....

And yeah some instrumentals would be great. If anything on this album will sound like the Ride Intro or like Burnt Norton I'll be blown away though

[urgirl 5,626]

well its been a month.. I really hope she's not still recording it, i'm really thirsting for this... I loved the poems she posted on instagram especially "happy," "all u have to do is change everything" and "my life is my poetry my lovemaking is my legacy" 

 

I know people dont think Lanas the greatest poet and I agree a bit, but since she's such my kindred spirit, her words really move me in way greater poets' don't

 

(and Violets is gonna scalp NFR... its a fact kiss kiss)

[Ryusei 5,020]

Delayed to never

[Trash Magic 26,721]

I TOTALLY forgot about this until I just saw this thread pop up. HA why on earth did no interviewer ask at the GRAMMYs?

[necessary sacrifice 8,864]

I still think this is happening. At the Grammys she made a point of bringing it up. But then she made it sound like she was still working on it, so maybe she’s reworking it a bit or adding things to it. Who knows. But I still think her label would want her to make it somewhat marketable, and I hope that includes physical copies. Plus not lots of big names (as far as I know) are releasing spoken word albums right now, but if Lana’s makes a big enough impact, it could inspire more artists to do the same, so she could be feeling a little pressure from herself to make it better. Us not hearing anything yet shouldn’t be too worrying though, Lana always takes longer than she thinks she will, so “about a month” could very well mean “almost a year” (although I hope not, unless WHF is almost done when she releases Violet).

 

Maybe she’s organizing leaks to keep us distracted while she finishes this (jk, but imagine)

inb4 she just opens a random ass folder in her laptop and then uploads something random to VK to keep us occupied

[maxthehitman 1,727]

It has been delayed because...

 

She lost the pages for her new book ?

 

[13bitches 6,174]

This isn’t coming is it

[Terrence Loves Me 71,575]

i really want to hear this, why cant she just stay true to her word for once, my god

[maxthehitman 1,727]

This isn’t coming is it

 

 

just wait a minute ... watch a show in the meantime

 

[Paris Hilton 8,973]

she used the papers for blunt wraps 

[motomami 158]

imagine she was the one that leaked the demos just to keep us fed to delay the spoken album again...

[Liz Taylor Blues 17,610]

Add this thread to Lies Lana Told

[Make me your Dream Life 82,701]

 

 

just wait a minute ... watch a show in the meantime

 

 

 

I think WE could all do that

[urgirl 5,626]

I really need this album...

 

I was gonna say there’s no way she’d cancel it after already promising the proceeds to charity but then I remembered that whole starry eyed children’s hospital thing....

[Paris Hilton 8,973]

FUCK this album 

[American Whore 47,356]

So that month went right by

[maxthehitman 1,727]

I think WE could all do that

 

I believe we CAN.

By the time this book comes out - we will ALL learn to do this bow-N-arrow trick just right 

 

Probably the poetry book is being printed in China (everything is made in China or India these days) ... and ... and with the recent virus problems, all the factories 

have closed down until further notice. So don´t wait too long for it.

 

Yeah, January went by really fast ! Time flies really quick.

[GeminiLanaFan 45,724]

I don’t get why you’re all acting as if everything is scrapped: She did say it would be out in February (« about a month »),  plus she posted a now-deleted picture of a microphone (I assumed it was for this project).

Plus: it’s her we’re talking about: everything takes longer than she says it would. Somewhere in February could mean in Spring, I Guess.

She literally said she was hand binding them herself to take to indie bookstores, unless she walked that back
