she should release sweet next week.... I think its a great song  to be a single

 

Please no.

 

The next single should be either Grandfather if she wants to appeal to the NFR acolytes OR Peppers if she wants the world to know she’s forever that bitch.

her aim shouldn't rly be to appease anyone when it comes to releasing music imo with that said, anything would make a great 3rd single, it's a stunning album so far 

 

dont rly think there will even b a another single tho tbh

[Liz Taylor Blues 18,738]

every track ive heard makes me cry tears...... i'm not ready for the full album but also i need it desperately

[details 17,163]

elle's dream strategy would be a good one imo (except for the lil dicky part of course ) it would be nice to get something on the 10th, not specifically grandfather but i wouldn't complain if it was

Seeing Interscope promoting A&W on TikTok is something I never expected. They didn’t even put her name anywhere though.

I'm obsessed with Lana's voice in Grandfather, she sounds so young! 

Spoiler

Not that she sounded old before, but you know what I mean

so no more forced Arcadia-esque, adult contemporary vocals ? 

[SalvaWHORE 34,006]

Guys. Where did Lana say she used to want this to be so good in the past, but now she just makes music that she feels happy about or something sound like that? I want to read the whole thing

ok from which song is the covid line and if she's saying she's got covid from kissing her boyfriend is that why she sneezes in a&w?

Sweet is not a filler track, it's a very complete song like The Grants or the title track. 

 

Spoiler

true! all first four tracks have their qualities to be released as singles and I bet that this level won't end with the follow-ups

I don't know if you talked about it, but in The Grants...

  Hide contents

... Lana sings about "Rocky Mountain High" by John Denver and the lyrics of his song go really well with the theme of The Grants, especially:

 

He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below

He saw everything as far as you can see

And they say that he got crazy once and he tried to touch the sun

And he lost a friend but kept the memory

 

For me Lana in her song is changing, doing hard stuff to cleanse her family line story, to put Grants in a good light. (I am really curious what she has found about her ancestors, because I feel something was wrong there ). Anyway, she knows that the only thing she can take with herself on that after-death journey are her memories and she wants them to be the ones which are the most important to her (Chucks child, her grandma's smile, etc). And in John's song, he lost his friend, but all he's taking with are a memories of him, because what else he could take?

There are many more parallels between these two songs but I am sleep deprived and I'm gonna finish now here. I'm sure you will see them. Let me cry in peace now. 

 

 

Spoiler

Thanks you for mentioning the RMH lyrics, i love what it adds to the song. The Grants is an incredible way to open the album!

OMG that Taco Truck snippet. I am DEAD. 

 

It's the Tulsa Jesus Freak and Get Free crossover we never knew we needed.  No. 1 most anticipated from this point on. Especiallyy since it samples my fav song (VB)

 

[Future Jazz 9,194]

so this still hasn't leaked
