Official ChartUK just published an article saying it's still a close race between 4 big artists (Elton, Lana, Duran Duran and another) to get the number 1 spot, even if Elton is currently leading first... so, I guess she can still make it! She would break records for having 2 number 1 albums in the same year!

UK gays you know what to do now  

meanwhile, I am still crying listening to Sweet Carolina, such an underestimated gem 

 

Yeah I just read the article. Elton John is leading followed by Duran Duran (#2), Lana (#3), and Biffy Clyro (#4) but it's an extremely competitive race because apparently the difference between Elton John (#1) and Biffy Clyro (#4) is just 4,500 chart sales.

 

UK gals, you know what to do.

[CinnamonGay 10,527]

Pls. That Uncle John only gets these streams due to his album having Dua/Nicki/MC/Lil Nas X...

Also UK GIRLIES. STREAM DEALER. STREAM ALBUM. BUY VINYLS.

welcome back! i’m surprised since UV and NFR are so high up on your list that you don’t like the album. what about the UV type songs? maybe it’s because you don’t like HM and songs like Arcadia are very HM? 

keep streaming and see if your opinion changes

I’m an album guy. I enjoy the aspect of listening to a record from beginning to end. My gripes with Honeymoon is just my opinion of filler. There’s songs like Art Deco and Salvatore that I feel like ruin the flow because they are the weakest songs on the album. I find Ultraviolence to be flawless album.

Impatiently waiting for fantanos bb review so I can judge him for giving the album a bad review. It’s honestly a tradition at this point🥴

he didn't do the new music friday livestream in the 22nd cause he had family plans so i'm waiting to see his reaction to it

Did NY Times review BB? Or even LA Times?

 

Those 14 reviews on Metacritic are driving me crazy.... Let's get this baby up to 89 minimum

I'm suddenly over excited about the Blue Banisters versions of Fine China and Wild One (and I Talk to Jesus?). I'm wondering how would they sound as they were apparently reworked for their appearance on the new album... also I feel Fine China would work amazing right after Violets for Roses (but so weird before Dealer... ) and Wild One somewhere in the second half.

Hopefully (or delulully ) we'll get them soon

What makes you think she reworked them? Or even remaster them...

My delulu mind  

No but for real, I think she could have touched Fine China a little at least, just to make it sound more similar to the album's sound. Wild One well could have been tossed like it is, but not FC i guess

Oh God, Dealer is such a liberating song! I always feel better after listening to it! More Lana angry songs please!

 

And also the fact that right after Dealer there's Thunder, which is on the contrary calm and relaxing... the placement of the songs is just perfect  this woman, her mind 

[Venice Jesus Whore 4,471]

Ok did Lana put actual drugs in Dealer because I seriously grin every time it starts playing. Never have I had a reaction to a song long this before, it just makes me so happy. 

[plastiscguy 63,441]

My mom says the reason she doesn't like Dealer, is because Lana sounds horny when she screams  

 

Truly the sultry bop we were waiting for...

Pitchfork continues stanning the album. They just picked Black Bathing Suit and Sweet Carolina as two of the best songs to listen to this week.
