I caught myself so many times on trying to make my computer or phone play COCC’s songs louder but it was already the max volume.

There’s just something so special about White Dress and Dance Til We Die. Career highlights. Instant favorites. The whole album is great though.

'Tis a near masterpiece: '13 Beaches,' 'WM,' 'WTWWAWWJKD,' 'Summer Bummer,' 'Heroin'....I personally also like 'BPBP' and 'In My Feelings.'

Not to be a downer but the album did horribly on Spotify. About half of what Norman did. She’s looking to debut with 20k from streaming (and that’s if she can maintain streams).

“we did it for the right reasons” someone help what is “it” ??

[MagicalTrancePotion 1,675]

I still don’t know what my favorite song is!!! But I’m leaning towards TJF. 
 

Also, I had my fiancé look up reactions to the album... he typed “Lana Del Rey C0CK Reactions”... he thought that was the actual name

Rolling stone is one of the big ones left 

 

there’s a bunch of smaller music sites that could potentially review it. It should get 5-10 more that count for the aggregator sites

I mean. The playlisting was awful. At least 2 Biebers songs got 100 mln playlist reach each and WD only 18m. Not to mention the rest of the album.

honestly why did we expect a non commercial album to be commercially succesful in the first place

Yeah. It’s just weird because her fanbase usually comes through for sales. I didn’t expect her to go from 104k first week to possibly 40k now.

I remember the first prediction for Norman’s debut was around 70k. Then 80-85. End up with 104k. We’ll see.

In the long run, albums that are remembered and have influence over the decades are usually those that are genuinely critically acclaimed and remain so; COCC has done so well in that regard that I don't think sales really matter a great deal, and most non-Stans probably don't even know the album exists yet. 

 

As we all know, Lana's being openly praised by the likes of Joan Baez and Bruce Springsteen..I think she's a lot more pleased with that than with a great deal of sales.
