Don't worry babe, I've listened to the song tons of times and  still haven't heard that damn vape.

tbh I don't even know what a vape sounds like so I could literally mistake it for one of Jack's bongos or whataver and I would be like yaaaaas production!

 

It's

that little crackling sound after the first chorus

I feel similarly about all of her records lol. There's usually one or two songs that really do it for me each record. For LFL it was Heroin. For NFR it was VB and NFR.

 

Spoiler

This time it's White Dress. Without White Dress, this album would've been such a letdown (which isn't to say I think it's bad, because I really really do love it). It kind of makes sense though. She said in that one interview/conversation with Jack that White Dress was a defining moment for COCC, and she wished there was one more song that managed to do that. Anyway, I have digressed far past your original point, which I also agree with!

Tbh Lana's albums are impossible to rate now because they're all so good. I think UV, HM and NFR are flawless and are interchangeable depending on your mood. Fourth, I'd say COCC respectively. It's her shortest album, but it has such high highs that it really doesn't matter. Fifth is LFL, a cute era for her and gave us WM - Cherry - 13 - Heroin - Change - Get Free (the best songs on the album) Sixth I'd say BTD = P

Listening to Violet now as a primer, I listened to it so much over the summer I have most parts memorized 

 

(no choice but to shout “F*CK THE NEW YORK POST”)

 

also:

”like a pheonix 

like a CHEMTRAIL

like a wavelength no one’s claiming”

 

also also:

WHO IS JOE?!!!!! do we think this was actually Sean?

mentioned in HTD, Never to Heaven, aaaaand...

Wild at Heart

 

 

Spoiler

i wonder if she doesn't just use "Joe" (and even "Josiah" in one violet poem) to stand in for whatever male figure she's writing about– that way she can preserve more boundaries for herself around her personal life and fame but still address these figures in her writing when she feels the want to.

And the vape in White Dress is one of the highlights of the song. It's almost disorienting when you first hear it.

 

Spoiler

Agree. It sounds as the song itself, its atmosphere is getting burnt, and thats such a genius touch!

ya i think NFR having big in your face moments like VB, The greatest and maybe even MAC/Title track makes it so hard to top on first listen,  but i also think the lows on NFR are lower than anything on COCC (love song - sorta just like lana-ism word salad thats a sweet song but very meh to me, bartender, TNBAR - two songs i love on their own but did not need to be on NFR)

Yup I get this so much, especially since some lyrics on NFR are kinda questionable. Overall I think COCC is much more cohesive but

 

more subtle than NFR. No cringy lyrics on COCC other than it’s just wanderlust

 Kinda like UV vs HM

Is it cool if I share here a new cover I did for the album? I still don't like the original, but this pic felt like a better (unused) choice:

That YouTube clip when she autographed that guy’s arm and he had it tattooed, she was like no you fucking didn’t...

Wow I remember Nick

 

[Poor Stacy 11,996]

I think if White Dress didn't rival Venice Bitch for me it'd be harder to say COCC is better than NFR, but COCC has more of a consistent mood, and it's easier to listen to in full for me than NFR. So while Venice Bitch might be my favorite song of Lana's ever (along w/ West Coast, ofc), I think COCC might be my favorite album altogether.

I have a question. Where can I read the music week interview and do I have no choice but to pay for it?

i like the group shot cover but this just threw the wispy Krug shot off that cliff

I think someone posted a link to it a few pages back on the music week thread you just have to download it 

[lover 2,207]

i was so excited to hear this album because of how tangled its creating process seemed to be with nfr - would one of the albums be clearly better than the other?

and for the longest time it's been so hard to rank lanas albums because all of them have had like two/three truly incredible songs and that did not change after cocc 

 

like for nfr the big moments were venice bitch & the greatest, for cocc definitely white dress and maybe the title track (i need a few more listens before i can say for sure)
