I just know that WD mv has a monologue

so, just add ITTJ, Living Legend and Thunder to my Chemtrails and I actually think they fit

 

[American Whore 51,340]

okay so the

wild at heart thing with how to disappear is interesting bc she mentions joe in both songs. i think it was intentional clearly but not to be lazy but to show cohesion between the two songs-- like "this is a continuation"

I do that routinely. I make my own version of LDR's albums, especially UV and LFL.

he’s also upset about the delay and Lana not being sure about the album.

You know what this made me think of just now? Being unsure could take on many meanings: she was unsure if it was complete, she was unsure of her vocal takes, etc. So I thought it would be a really nice treat for her fans if she did a deluxe re-release with some demos or previous versions of the songs that show the direction she wanted to go, and then ultimately what she chose for the final record. She would make SO much coin from the fandom. Manifest ladies

i think the connection between the two is so interesting, it doesn't strike me as lazy, and there's enough of a difference between the two songs i didn't realize it was a sample at first. chemtrails is so subtly and with WAH less subtly tied to NFR yet so strikingly different, they truly are very different but connected siblings

So is it 100% confirmed that the album will have a worldwide release?

I hope not cause I don't want to listen the album in the morning, and I'd have to wait the evening

I agree about Folklore--I really don't understand that album title at all.

 

NFR! was said/thought by many to be 'folk' or 'folk-like,' but I didn't find it to be so except possibly 'Bartender.' However, I do thing the folk tag works for some of COCC, especially 'Yosemite.' It is a mediative album, but it doesn't have the lyrical depth or scope of 'Hejira' the album--which is no insult to LDR, since I'm sure we agree that Hejira is almost unparalleled in terms of lyrics and vision. However, 'Yosemite' is very intensely emotional in a quiet, almost spooky way. I find it unlike anything else she's ever done. You have a lot to look forward to and I look forward to your thoughts on it. 

 

This is actually a comfort. You’re probably right about how Lana will never reach Joni’s depths (but I honestly don’t think anyone ever has or will and Lana herself has depth that most artists will never reach either). But like yeah I didn’t find NFR all that folky or anything like Joni’s Blue (which it got compared to nonstop probably just because they both have songs called California in them). I honestly found the album more in line with late 60s Beach Boys. It also has made me especially curious about how COTCC will sound because I don’t fully trust genre descriptions. But you’ve made me especially excited for Yosemite if it’s that haunting and emotional. Would you consider it the most Hejira-type-vibe of the album? Someone on twitter said Yosemite was like a George Harrison Beatles song and those are so haunting, so I’m starting to get more excited for it than ever before.

For Free & Breaking Up Slowly get shit on so much omg... just say you hate collabs and go 
 

I think it’s so sweet that the album ended w the Weyes + Zella feature. Considering the track right before her is DTWD and I feel like it’s a nod to “but, God, it feels good not to be alone” by ending the album ... not as a solo— if I’m making sense? 

 

COTCC is definitely the turning of the tides of what’s to come next in her discography. So excited for the future!

WAHs production is clearly more western and Americana inspired and well...wild. The verses are completely different and the tempo in the chorus is different enough differentiate itself 

 

HTD is more 50s doo-wop traditional pop style almost

 

I think it’s a cute call back and honestly part of me thinks WAH was done first and then the production was lifted from it and put into HTD When she changed it from a piano ballad

I swear I hate Lana stans weird elitism when it comes to NO FEATURES 

sure her track record isnt good, but she clearly loves that community feel of a circle of friends making music together. I think it’s cute.

its funny bc yosemite was the LAST song i cared to hear. i assumed it would be a snooze like change but its not! how can anyone say otherwise? i seriously think its one of her best songs... top 3 or maybe even top 2 on chemtrails for me... the wait to hear it was worth it. so fucking worth it. imagine it leaked and she never released it... rightfully deserved an official release

I don't know how to describe 'Yosemite' accurately--for once, adjectives fail me, comparisons too. The best I can do is say it's like some of Donovan's most haunting (and largely unknown to the public) songs, like 'Young Girl Blues,' 'Jersey Thursday' or 'Sunny Goodge Street,' where he sings so plainly, starkly and intimately that you almost feel embarrassed while listening--you're right there, it's all immediate, and he's not making a whole lot of effort to sound 'pretty'--the starkness is the whole song.

 

'Yosemite' is like that--the very first time I heard it I loved it, which has only happened to me about a handful of times in my life--and the spoken/song last fourth is so powerful and intimate, it has that same quality of Donovan's, that you feel you're witnessing something too private and personal. And the amazing thing is that that part is only 20-30 seconds, and yet it carries massive emotional depth and weight. I think you'll love it. It's now in my top three LDR songs, with 'Old Money' and 'Ride.'

You guys talk about Joni Pier but forget how Lana Del Rey is the only female artist that could delivery something similar to Joni masterpiece, Blue. NFR is that bitch.

Hot take: Ultraviolence was already Lana’s artistic “equivalent” to Blue. They’re quite different sonically and aesthetically, but ultimately equal in raw emotion and overall impact.
