Thank you sis, same to you  I know we've lost so many users since our day (or within the last couple of months even lmao)

A loss for the culture. Maybe this album will compel them back to us.

i hate how people are now using that quote to justify hating fingertips like "well even lana said it sucks!" which is clearly not what she meant but of course the fingertips haters don't care.

 

Spoiler

Fingertips and/or Kintsugi could have easily been split into multiple parts and replace the pointless interludes.

This fanfiction. Honeymoon was her worst performing album by that point (and still is if you omit COCC and BB). Lust For Life resurrected her commercially. The singles performed well. The album too. Not to mention a Grammy nomination. If you’re talking about debut numbers, yes it was lower (by a few thousands) but it ended selling much better than Honeymoon overall. Norman debuted even lower. It’s now one of her best selling albums.

 

Honeymoon was her worst selling album pre-NFR.

It’s not fan fiction- the album was heavily promoted on YouTube and had ads on tv- link these figures- I also stated at that point?

Consequence calling it a "welcome return to form" after Chemtrails and Blue Banisters, while giving it the same score as Blue Banisters 

[evalionisameme 13,889]

The singles did not perform well by any means- her last well performing single is young and beautiful 

 

actually I’ll give you LFL for that era because it hit the top 40 here

Amazon still says my vinyl is coming on Tuesday the 28th

[Venice Jesus Whore 4,471]

The “touch me with your fingertips” line from VB has been on repeat in my mind all day long, and I only just now put two and two together that it’s because I keep seeing people talking about the song “Fingertips” here.
