listening to Chemtrails and then starting what we have it BB is actually great. they sound like they really should've been 2 disc sets and were meant to go together. textbook after Dance till We Die (bc we skip For Free) is perfect

I think there's a few songs on COCC that nobody really needed or listens to, which maybe could have been released as singles or a short EP instead (Breaking Up Slowly for example). On the other hand, there are really beautiful songs like White Dress, Chemtrails, TJF, Yosemite(!!!) which would be perfect as additional songs for a deluxe version of BB. Idk, I feel like especially these 4 songs really deserved better than this rushed "era"...

Well well well... after lurking on LB for over 2 years I've finally decided to create an account lmao :oopna:
I guess I've kinda been a part of this community for quite some time now already... but now I FINALLY get to be a part of the discussions (and the meltdowns)!!!

Anyways, I'm as excited for BB as y'all are - and I'm SO glad Text Book is the opener since it's really become one of my favorite Lana songs over the past few months :wub:

Random thoughts on the album: 

- Text Book is all about her daddy issues; WFWF is all about her mommy issues, so maybe the album has two parts: first, how her daddy issues impacted her relationships and how her mommy issues impacted them as well;

- Sweet Carolina could be how she made peace with her dad, or has some hints at it (since he co-write it);

- Arcadia is probably the word she did say summarized the last 18 months of her life and that she alluded to in an interview (Music Week? Can’t remember);

- BoZ saying Arcadia was mainly piano makes me wonder if he heard the MV version, with little to no strings and horns;

- The horns on Arcadia bring a sorta  victory sound to her « battle » with critics.

I don’t think critics ignored COCC at all. It’s the most reviewed “mainstream” album of the year. It actually received very good reviews too which is surprising considering her reputation at the time. 

The Metacritic score is 81/100, which isn't bad, of course, but is like, what--a B - or a C +?  

 

After LFL and NFR!, I didn't see the massive amount of reviews, good or bad or in the middle, for COCC that those albums received.

Not the COCC slander again. It’s perfect as it is and it perfectly works as a whole album. For Free is beautiful and the LMLYLAW hate is too much. It’s not her best song but the melody is gorgeous and it improves within the album context.

91 = A-

83 = B+

75 = B

67 = B-

58 = C+

50 = C

42 = C-

33 = D+

25 = D

16 = D-

8 = F+

0 = F

 

Norman fucking Rockwell! - 87 (B+/A-)

Chemtrails Over the Country Club - 81 (B/B+)

Honeymoon - 78 (B/B+)

Lust for Life - 77 (B/B+)

Ultraviolence - 74 (B-/B)
