when lana said that drew added orchestral arrangements to her iphone voice memos i thought she was talking about just making demos with him but the way she described the song in her letter makes me think even the final version is literally recorded on her voice memos app like Violet which scares me 😭 to pull that off either the mixing has to be really really good or they have to lean into the lo-fi vocals thing even more. but i trust them to make it work… i think

I was worried about that too but the second snippet vocals sound very clean and good so I guess they either re recorded them in the studio or they mixed them perfectly

There's the one that leaked with Ocean Blvd that sounded really rough and some weeks later another one leaked with better vocals (but it has an annoying tag over it )

I'm still amazed by this era's aesthetic  The waves, the orchids, the iconic hairstyle

 

The orchid photo is just a light study. It's not related to Lana

If Lana put Cruel World on this album I wouldn’t even be mad like it would be a welcome surprise for me to press play on The Grants and instead it just plays Cruel World. 
 

The song would make any album better so it’s kind of not a bad thing.

otherworldly, out of this world, evoking a sense of larger than daily existence of living and perception. and enticing curiosity and wonderment. also the petals look like an advanced spaceship. something almost spiritual and belonging in it's vastness and elusiveness to grasp. almost, beguiling even, yet strangely enough, still familiar to help begin again and to create and carry over the cycle and experience. 

 

I've definitely used an orchid photo as a metaphor for pussy in a poster artwork for a feminist event before so maybe you're onto something. it fits the vibe of the photoshoot where she's feeling herself and we've seen her over the past year radiating this energy. maybe it's something that will translate through lyrics? I don't remember her explicitly talking about the meaning of the flowers of each era previously but the orchids definitely has this whole fertility, luxury and power energy to them

 

the oxford definition:

or·chid

/ˈôrkid/

noun

plural noun: orchids

a plant with complex flowers that are often showy or bizarrely shaped, having a large specialized lip (labellum) and frequently a spur. Orchids occur worldwide, especially as epiphytes in tropical forests, and are valuable hothouse plants.

 

edit: now I see that the orchids might have nothing to do with this era but they do fit the vibe perfectly

wait idk if it’s the right one i found but it sounds good, the crystal clear vocals, the mysterious vibe going on and the light synth/pad chords in the back… does another honeymoon esque track await us ?

No tea, no shade, no pink lemonade BUT

 

We really went from "Chucky's making birthday cake" to "Handmade beauty sealed up by two man-made walls" 

 

Spoiler

really no shade BB is actually a lyrical masterpiece and we should all deal

Ok I had an LDR 9 dream last night. I remember I was playing the second song on the album (but it wasn’t DYKTATUOB) and it was so beautiful. It was like the perfect mix between Honeymoon and Ultraviolence. Like literally my dream song. And I will never be able to hear it again😭😭😭
