These wildly different rankings have me SO hyped, there’s definitely something for everyone and seems like most, if not all, of the songs are ~quality~. Another career-defining album incoming 

Sociology.

This isn't a spoiler, just how I would best describe the album so far

 

Spoiler

If you go in with an open mind, you'll absolutely love it. The songs are incredibly dense. Very raw, dark, and vulnerable. It's an album that Blue Banisters seemed like it wanted to be, but couldn't quite get there. If I could compare it to her other albums, it would be Honeymoon and Blue Banisters. Really powerful stuff, going deeper into the singer songwriter world. Mellow tracks so far, don't expect bangers.

If you enjoy Weyes Blood’s music and Lana balladry at its best then be super hype for the songs that leaked 

 

[How2Disappear 976]

i did hear a bit of the pastor interlude while scrolling on social media, and i couldn't hear well over the tag, but my thoughts were Pink Floyd's Great gig in the sky vibe?

You'll lose your mind listening to it. The greatest.

Fingertips lyrics:

 

  Reveal hidden contents

When I look back 

Tracing fingertips 

Over plastic bags 

Thinking I wish I could extrapolate 

Some small intention 

Or maybe just get your attention 

For a minute or two 

  

Will I die? 

Or will I get to that ten year mark 

Where I beat the extinction 

Of telomeres  

And if I do, will you be there with me?
Father, sister, brother 

Charlie, stop smoking 

Caroline, will you be with me? 

Will the baby be alright? 

Will I have one of mine? 

Can I handle it 

Even if I do? 

You said that I might 

It’s not fair, or so they said 

To carry a child 

I guess I’ll be fine… 

  

It wasn’t my idea 

The cocktail of things 

That twist neurons inside 

But without them 

I’d die 

  

They say there’s irony in the music 

It’s a tragedy, I 

See nothing Greek in it
  

Give me a mausoleum
In Rhode Island
With dad, Grandma, Grandpa, and Dave 

Who hung himself real high 

In the National Park sky 

It’s a shame 

And I’m crying right now 

To get to you, save you 

If I take my life 

Find your astral body 

Put it into my eyes 

Give you two seconds to cry 

Take you home, I 

I’ll give you a blanket 

Your spirit can sit and watch TV by my side 

‘Cause baby, I 

Ran through a time when I felt you were doing it
I couldn’t handle it
I was in Monaco
I couldn’t hear what they said on the telephone
I had to sing for the Prince in two hours
Sat in the shower 

Gave myself two seconds to cry
It’s a shame that we die

When I was 15, naked 

Next door neighbors did a drive-by
Pulled me up by my waist
Long hair, to the beach side 

I wanted to go out like you… 

Swim with the fishes
That he caught on Rhode Island beaches
But sometimes it’s just not your time 

  

Caroline…
What kind of mother was she to say
I’d end up in institutions? 

All I wanted to do was kiss Aaron Green 

And sit by the lake 

Twisting lime into the drinks 

That they made 

Have a babe at 16 

The town I was born in and die 

Aaron ended up dead and not me 

What the ****’s wrong in your head 

To send me away never to come back 

Exotic places and people 

To take the place of being your child?
  

I give myself two seconds to cry 

Let it crash over me 

Like the waves in the sea 

Call me Aphrodite 

As they bow down to me 

  

Sunbather, moon chaser 

Queen of empathy 

I give myself two seconds to breathe 

And go back to being a serene queen 

  

I just needed two seconds to be me

 

Spoiler

what if… Aaron is K?

No Lana song has ever hit me as hard as Fingertips. This really is a song where you have to pay close attention to the lyrics. I literally never cry because of songs or movies or whatever but this song fully left me teary eyed it's insane.

lana needs a hug, to say the least. she deserves happiness.

Are there any traditionally-structured songs on the album. or non-experimental tracks?

Looking unlikely. Best bets would be Paris, Texas or Fishtail if I had to make a prediction

This is all so, so crazy. I can't believe it's real.

Contrary to what others are saying, I think the only really non conventional track leaked right now are Fingertips (totally a Joanna Newsom winding ballad with very little repetition). The others have clear choruses at the very least. The Grants is very conventional apart from the intro.

What is the production like on fingertips ?
