I’ll definitely have to listen through it a few more times to have a conclusive favorite but I am particular to LA who am i to love you. It’s incredibly heartbreaking and relatable. And Sportcruiser is absolutely beautiful

How do you all feel about Bare Feet on Linoleum? It was a very intense listen for me  :defeated: her tone of voice, the background voices, and the instrumental were terrifying lol but in a weird way I still like it.

one of the things i'm most impressed by is lana's reading of her poems– her pacing, pauses, intonations. makes sense to me that she'd be good at reading her work aloud bc of her musicianship, but she really managed to squeeze every drop of feeling from these readings.

Hopefully the instrumentals leak..they are beautiful and Jack did a really good job.....or imagine Lana would release the instrumentals  :teehee:

"Swan Song. It’s on my album Honeymoon. It’s the antithesis of hopefulness. It’s about trying to find beauty in giving up. If I had my way, I would continue to persist in all areas of my life, but it can be quite challenging because I can be too trusting too soon."
