What do we think the stand-out track of the songs we haven't heard yet is gonna be? I think If You Lie Down With me is gonna be an album highlight (same goes for Black Bathing Suit, song of the century )

 

I adore the title Violets for Roses too!

I'm pretty sure this has been said multiple times already, but I wonder if Black Bathing Suits is going to be a TIWMUG-style reflection on her wild teen years. I still see it being an edgier/darker song that's trap-influenced, since it follows the interlude, but I wonder if it'll also be somber and kind of sad in the way TIWMUG is. I've always connected to that song so hard and would love a continuation of those themes

 

What if Black Bathing Suit turns out to be White Dress' trippier, darker and edgier sister? 

 

I have a feeling that If You Lie Down With Me is a new song. Merely based on the fact that the song is separated from the rest of the Barrie songs/UV outtakes which are all placed at the end of the album right before Sweet Carolina. But I'd love a confirmation because the fact that Barrie and Lana may have written a brand new song together fills me with joy.

Can you randomly predict Serene Queen for LDR10 thanks x

 

the problem is we don't know what is the next album - is it the MIKE DEAN collab or the covers one or some random shit idk 

[drugmunny 8,880]

important question- do we think she's going to do real photoshoots and magazine interviews this era to promote BB or just pull a COCC and use screenshots and selfies

I doubt there will even be screenshots and selfies 

 

there’s not going to be anything else other than the release

just realised she broke the pattern of the 121212 title track placement  

also this is the first album where the opening track doesn't have an instrumentation before she sings, it's just her voice to open the record 

 

The second song is the title track…

[5Rick 2,925]

I don’t know. I don’t think that the idea of wanting to have more privacy is compatible with photoshoots and interviews 

Perhaps it will be just the music this time around… and we are fine with that as long she is fine with that

Well, the beginning of TB stil has that weird deaf sound, so…

and it was the same on CoCC. According to her pattern BB would have been track 1

correct, but the second song was also the title track on cocc, she normally bounces between it being the first or second track

[lizzys 1,624]

one thing that still bugs me a bit is wfwf’s production… i honestly like jack’s production more than mike dean’s

her deactivating killed my whole hype for this album idk

Same

 

not that I even care about her Instagram, but it’s just hard to imagine anything else exciting happening with this now (videos, performances, magazines, TOURS, etc) so there’s a lot less to anticipate and less surprises to look forward to

 

Obviously I’ll (hopefully) enjoy the record but it’s just like…

How is she “gonna use” that BB fan edit she liked

My thought was that the fan edit was gonna be what she used for promo like how she used that one selfie for Chemtrails promo right after the album came out 

[Furor Poeticus 16,352]

Soooooo when are we gonna start playing the game of Guessing how long the tracks will be?

We know Text Book is the longest so that's a hint already. Maybe there'll still be a song that's like 5 minutes long.

Her describing this album as ''a compilation of older songs and a few newer songs'' is what should be killing the hype for everyone. It's going to be less original/lazier version of Lust For Life. Lana throwing a bone to her ''fans'' who are way behind and constantly crying for ''old Lana''.

There is literally nothing lazy about the four emotionally revealing masterpieces she's released so far so I'm not too worried about that.
