You all can keep flapping your gums about the chosen song as the next single, but Peppers and Taco Truck would be incredibly false advertising, so I'm glad she went with a track that's more representative of the album a whole. This ain't GagaDaily. Be glad she didn't put out the experimental cuts of the record, Kintsugi or Fingertips.  :oprah3:

exactly and fuck the GP, if they aren’t here for songs like The Grants then they don’t deserve the middle and second half of the album :true:

 

let them think it’s piano only while we gatekeep the bops

That's all very well expressed. It's a wonderful record, but I guess what the public might take from the word 'revenge' and what she perceives it as can be wildly different. 

Very true, and we know Lana speaks in riddles anyway!

but I remember her saying about the album before she deleted her official Instagram account, it was about where’s she’s been, where she’s at now and where she’s going- which I saw the themes run through the album and probably why it ended on the very sweet track, sweet Carolina :P

 

and it made sense as to why she included the trio, the good, the bad and the ugly. It was definitely supposed to hit back and be like “this is me” type thing, but, as we know, wasn’t executed well.. though I love all the tracks individually! Probably getting off topic now though.. but hopefully ocean blvd is the well rounded version of bb

Tbh I’m kinda over the insiders for multiple reasons. As much as they say they don’t want attention, it’s literally all they want. They tease something and then act all surprised when fans want more information. They spoil everything before Lana/her team get to announce anything. Imagine if we were surprised by Lana herself and not some “insider”, it would make it that much more exciting.

 

I’m kinda hope this “insider” era ends after this album cycle but I’m sure it will only get worse for the next one.


As much as I appreciate this post (mostly due to the fact that I also love to be surprised with visuals and media from my favorite artist) I think it’s extremely unrealistic to think insider eras/culture will ever change. Think about the practicalities of muting these people: Twitter would need to delete their accounts, ATRL would need to delete their accounts…even then they could always make another one. Then there’s the added challenge of communication channels within Discord, Instagram, other music forums, etc: insiders have their own cult following that will ultimately relay any spills to us on here. Suffice it to say insider culture will never go away - at least not from any external attempts (i.e. censoring, removing them from certain platforms). What it’s ultimately going to take is an internal decision by every insider to choose not to reveal something, and frankly I don’t think that’s going to happen LMAO :eartha:

The Grants is a beautiful song. It might be my "least favorite" of the leaked tracks, but it's still a really nice song to listen to, 8/10, and speaks to the volume of the high caliber of this album. :oprah3:

I asked Asmodeus (the demon of lust) to make Miley Cyrus suffer. I am not happy with these new developments. After Miley rips off Lana's aesthetic, she bullies Lana into changing her release date. It is infuriating.

I'm sure it has been said a million times since The Grants news but I can see the "surprise" being the album trailer with the 3 singles. I know it's not that crazy but we didn't get one for the last 2 albums and BOZ said The Grants would be amazing on a trailer so it makes sense that he's excited. 

The album trailer one week before the album also makes sense :true:

I'd prefer a short film with those 3 songs but that's unlikely

Spoiler

I can already see the girlies complaining that it's a piano ballad :scoff: 

When it's literally a type of song that she had never done before, while still being the perfect successor to Sweet Carolina with a full blown orchestra and a choir :angie:

My best friend who has a hard time getting into Lana, and said A&W “could be 2 min shorter” absolutely loved The Grants, and said it was his favorite song he had heard by her.

 

I think there’s something unique about it and there will be some “piano ballad” BS about it, it’s a strong, unique track.

It's a beautiful life, remember that too, for me.

In the streaming era, people will pick and choose which song to smash anyway when the album is out. Singles don’t really matter that much.

 

Lana or her label ignoring the sign chosen by the listeners tho is unfortunate. Arcadia having not one but TWO music videos and a televised live performance over Dealer was a mess.
