IanadeIrey 62,020 Posted January 24, 2022 This makes me even more excited for their joint record I love the melody — it’s so showtunes-y, jazzy, and Lana’s voice sounds so good singing these kinds of melodic patterns <3 15 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plastiscguy 63,437 Posted January 24, 2022 I actually like this a lot, cause it's more in the style of Nikki, and not watered down ala Jack with BUS (album production, the live instrumentation is amazing) 10 Quote My rose garden dreams set on fire by fiends...

Elle 121,280 Posted January 24, 2022 Lana talking about the inspiration behind the song! "An older gentleman, and Nikki told me a little story about him about he had a little meeting with her and he crept a little too close to her, and he said, 'How does it feel to be the prettiest girl in country music?' and I was like, 'bleh!' so immediately I wrote a little chorus and then we expanded."
