I’ve been mia basically all of June cuz school killed me, have I missed anything?? 

 

Just the casual jack hategate, complains about the piano flops, complains about Lana's random dates... Nothing new

[Venice Peach 54,289]

The fact that we still don't have the preorder is worrying but I'm still hopeful . Maybe on her birthday for a July 16/23rd release? 

PD: not Banks ripping off the Chemtrails MV for her next single yikes

I don't understand this. At the time, she said that Honeymoon was a vanity project, so in my logic, should be her favorite album. Especially because it's her best. But in reality, she doesn't even acknowledge the record. 

 

Is it so private that she wants to keep it for herself or she just hates it?

 

Spoiler

I wonder if the reason of her not acknowledging HM is due to the bad sales compared with her other records. That would be sad

Yes, especially because it's just so full and rich, cinematically sweeping and manages to straddle both being an homage to old school jazz, and an up to date sound that manages to come across as timeless. Yes it's a bit clunky insofar as some of the songs aren't really right for the album (Shades Of Cool would have worked beautifully on it, 13 Beaches Should Have Been On It, Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood is a weird and sort of dull cover, Swan Song should have been the closer) but it's a stunningly beautiful album that totally surprised me when it came out and made me realise just what a capacity for genre-adopting/twisting Lana had as a songwriter, as well as singing even more ethereally than I already knew. It's one of my favourites and I love to languish about listening to it in summer especially.

i was always under the impression that it was just very personal, so it's hard to talk about? it would make sense, i could see god knows i tried, religion, the blackest day, and swan song being quite personal, although it would be very disappointing if she didn't like it, it really is a splendid album

I don’t think Lana invented girls crawling.

[Say Yes to Heaven 27,435]

All I want for 2022 is for Lana to get her spark back.

Ben is becoming annoying with the Dua spam..

Is it Lana on Jen's story?

[Super Movie 51,554]

I think something that's going to be interesting is seeing how the flow of the tracklist is/the cohesiveness of the album itself. The three singles all sound somewhat different from one another, but could very well be landmark points on a longer tracklist  (manifesting 14-16 songs, but realistically it'll probably be 12 at the most)

She revived the Oklahoma dry flowers  

The flannel is back. And now we can see that she changed her hair and it wasn't just the dye fading out
