Guys, I was out for most of today. Someone catch me up to speed on anything that went down.

Please stay on topic in this thread, everyone... keep this to discussion that is directly related to the upcoming album only. If you feel an off-topic conversation brewing but still wish to reply, please quote it and reply in another thread such as the Random Lana Discussion or Random Conversation Thread. This can be done by pressing the + icon at the bottom of a post and then pressing the "Quote (#) post" button at the bottom of the lower corner in another thread. We also have many individual threads for discussion about specific songs, such as the Text Book thread in the lyrics section which would have been more appropriate place to begin this conversation.  x

what does everyone think "Grandfather please stand on the shoulders of my father while he's deep-sea fishing" will sound like?  i thought it would be a ballad, but last night, i had a dream where it was actually an electronic funk track with African polyrhythms and Lana was sort of lazily rapping the title over and over.  it sounded pretty good, this would be big departure from Lana's typical style, surely would get rave reviews

I haven't listened to the RIOPY track she sings over, but apparently it has a futuristic piano type of sound or at least the type of piano you hear on Spotify playlists

That wasn’t a dream, that was a vision

I stand by your initial thought. Your dream of the song is giving a Lana unreleased fever dream  Honestly, I think the track would eat if it was your dream, but I doubt it is

This honestly isn’t too far off, I don’t think it will be a ballet because the sample is very lively, not slower like a ballet

the way that I automatically read this with a Jennifer Coolidge voice-

There's definitely going to be a few ballads on the album. Current Lana is not too fussed about fast tempo songs. I hope however that it's more than just piano or guitar. If it's done in a tasteful way, I don't have any issues with beat-less songs. All I want is another TLY moment. Saxophone needs to make a comeback

How does everyone plan to listen to the album for the first time? I usually drive somewhere special per the vibe of the album but I just can't seem to think of where I want to go for this one. I went to a park with lots of fall colored trees for BB, in front of a church for COCC, where they dock sailboats at the lake for NFR, downtown Minneapolis for LFL, and on the interstate for HM. I think I just listened to UV at home. Does anyone else have a ritual like this? I wish I still lived by the ocean for this one!

I'm going to listen to Ocean Blvd the first time by the boardwalk on the beach, possibly wearing a candy necklace

The text looks a little off to me but maybe I’m delusional, it just looks thinner

how do you know the song "Grandfather please stand on the shoulders of my father while he's deep-sea fishing" includes a sample or a saxophone?  can someone please share the song that is sampled?  in my dream, Lana was filming a music video for the song and she was on a boat in the Caribbean with beads in her hair head bobbing to the funky reggae rhythm
