Your mind! Manifesting a Lana x Nikki x Miles Kane album without Nikki! Imagine a country album that was produced by Mike Dean and doesn't sound Country at all. Can't wait to see Lana serving country looks in the exact same way she did during BTD

I LOOOVE the gravelly and raw tone of Nikki's voice  they sound so good together, this performance was a bit messy but in a really sweet and endearing way, reminds me of when my family get together with their guitars and sing a bunch of songs while totally trashed - like, you can tell its messy, but its cute!! this has me really excited for their work together and I hope this project sees the light of day I really do!!

I really want both of them on some old lizzy classics like disco, YBIATR, pin up galore, trash magic, etc. it would fit so well country and western production.

omg imagine lana reviving motel 6 or 1949 with nikki with full country production  a dream

[daphnedinkley 13,475]

also im not sure why, but Prettiest Girl in Country Music kinda reminds me of If I Had a Gun by Noel Gallagher!

i actually like those songs though why would i want them to be ruined with full country production 

Spoiler

jokes and shade aside though it would be an interesting experiment to hear

Lana's always had somewhat of a country influence on her music. I think it's most prevalent on Chemtrails and her Lizzy-era work. I'd argue that her acoustic demos like Your Band Is All The Rage, You're Gonna Love Me, All Smiles, etc. as well as Queen Of The Gas Station are her most country-esque songs. I'd even say Super Movie is pretty country inspired. Exploring country music isn't new for Lana at all. Of course it's not everyone's taste, but I'm glad to see her exploring this interest of hers

you'd still have all the demos. i just think they have the right vibe to go with a sorta 1950s style country sound.

imagine a double-release of her covers album & her nikki lane collab album  covers of classic songs cemented into american culture & original songs reminiscent of classic songs cemented into american culture, including trash magic (deep-south steel guitar southern belle coca cola elvis where are you when i need you the most? version)

This is just a transcript of the Mermaid Motel performance from Arlene's Grocery in 2009

This new song sounds so good! I'm pleasantly surprised 

[Dark Angel 202,174]

maybe we can go to alabama

maybe i can sing dolly parton

buy a pair of cowgirl boots 

for the last southern day of the summer

like my straw hat for my line-dancing video

walk back to where i live in my ranch

on southern belle avenue

 

[the ocean 67,601]

i kinda love how even if you're not enthusiastic about country (like me) we're still getting hyped for it because it's lana and what could go wrong tbh

Spoiler

don't answer that question

Cry about it

Ok, honestly it's better than a collab with Migos or other pop/rap artists. There's something special about it, something only Lana can do. Maybe I can get more comfortable with it someday, The Prettiest Girl in Country Music actually sounds really good and whets the appetite for more.

i've always thought "my momma" had a slight twang to it... wildflower wildfire 2.0 is coming
