Um that word is super offensive in South America, no need to call a woman that...

hi! latin american here. the word, though it's used in an offensive way by some, it's a literal translation to "bitch", which is a word that is used frequently on social media. we don't take that word as offensive as long as it's used in a joke, just like this other person did with shakira. not offensive at all if it's used in this way

Wait so is it worth it to listen to A&W in Dolby Atmos on AM. When I had it turned I couldn't hear the piano in the second verse on the title track so I turned it off again

 A&W still n1 on genius chart! https://genius.com/Lana-del-rey-a-w-lyrics

Every reaction video I've watched they define the song as "WILD"

It's funny that everyone talks about how fun and boppy the second part is but I also find it very dark and unsettling. Like that party with Jimmy is not good vibes, even though the beat makes us think otherwise. It's like some trippy drugged up loop that we're stuck in where she just repeats the same toxic things about Jimmy over and over, and I think by repeating the lyrics from a song from the 1950s she's also making a statement that people have been living similar experiences to her for a very long time. It's obviously a vibe but there's a lot of darkness beneath the surface in that part too.

Exactly. Not to get too personal but as someone who’s experienced addiction & abusive relationships that second part of the song strikes me as exactly this. It’s haunting and nostalgic to me. When you’re in those situations you’re experiencing what feels like the worst moments of your life (they are) while simultaneously feeling like you’re experiencing some of the best and most intimate moments of your life (that part is all an illusion) 

this 7 minute track absolutely needed to be together this way imo. They both wouldnt hit the right way without the other.

Not sure if this has been shared yet but Steven in Stereo (daddy) has dropped his reaction to A&W

 

 

[DCooper]

I feel like we're going to slowly but surely shed the darkness and heal as the album goes on and by the time we reach the Taco Truck we'll be in pure bliss

A&W with headphones.. 

literally. I can’t listen to Lana without headphones because I feel like you miss half of what’s there (and it feels like such a personal experience)

I feel like you can better hear the instrumental details in A&W with Dolby Atmos enabled but her vocals are a bit more lost in the mix. Definitely worth listening to it at least once with Dolby Atmos enabled.

I didn't think Lana would top the melody of Cocc title track but A&W really does it tenfold 

 

"I say i live in Rosemead, really I live at Ramada. It doesn't really matter, doesn't really really matter" just sends me straight to the moon every time
