After listening the Thunder demo we've had now that I've heard the album version, the demo sounds so empty to be honest. It's like, it's just the same thing over and over again instrumentally. I'm glad that the final uses more and actually builds on it. I prefer it so much 

 

 

Spoiler

Me too! The only thing I like more about the demo are the back vocals in the chorus

Not comparable imo. Different stages of her career, different priorities, different motivations and no pandemic in 2014/15

If you think she's gonna churn out something completely different to COCC and BB in the next 6 or so months you are kidding yourself

I don't even know why anyone would want that

She hasn't even released this one yet

Let the woman BREATHE

Stans can be a bit unrealistic ( not coming at the user who said that, in general). Lana puts out music extremely frequently compared to the industry average and yet you’ll see people calling her Lazy Del Rey. Like, guys she cant be in the recording booth 10 hours every day. Let her have a life she’s in her late 30’s lol. She is very prolific. I think social media is a factor. We check Lanaboards everyday which is great but i think it puts into our minds we need more lana content all the time where as naturally we’d probably only  think of her every few months “ hey is she working on new  music rn?”

So I'm kinda obsessed with BBS and honestly not just in the positive way. I keep coming back to it and trying to understand why she made some decisions in the last minute and a half. Like those drums, her vocals, the clownery at 4:07. It's so intentionally...ugly? IDK how to crack this song so far. Did somebody else go through this and ended up really liking the whole thing?

And she's said she wants to have children...if she has one or more biologically, and she has her first child, say, next year, she'll be 57 when the child graduates high school. Nothing wrong with that. But, there is such a thing as life and living, and she's been singing about that a lot lately, from 'Venice Bitch' to the COCC title track to songs on BB.

I do like it, but agree it doesn't sound organic and flowing; the parts don't hang together very well as a whole, but I assume she wanted it that way.

This song feels like a deep dive into her mental state over the last year. She's commenting on a lot of the ways that the media has treated her and how it makes her feel, and the chaos of the song reflects those feelings. I love it so much.

the quality is still low? 128?

If You Lie Down With Me & Living Legend are bottom two. If You is just plain boring and LL has her ugliest vocals ever, especially during chorus

I’m sorry but Cherry Blossom & Living Legend have to be the most boring & empty unreleased to officially put out. The NFR piano ballads are just way more dynamic to me, UFB & I Talk to Jesus would have fit better, or at least re-productions of CB & LL 

 

[venicebitch 14,553]

She probably put the first take of Cherry Blossom because she loves the idea of doing her songs in just one take

it's not the first take that's on the album

[Edelgard 1,849]

if I Talk To Jesus was on this record I'd die.

 

Especially if it wasn't ripped from YouTube and actually decent quality.
