Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd - Pre-Release Thread: OUT March 24th, 2023

[nectarofthegodss 1,534]

Grandfather please stand on the shoulders of my father while he’s deep-sea fishing because hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have – but I have it, also did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd?

The Grants better have a grand orchestral intro and flow perfectly into tunnel or what was the point?

I hope the sigh/deep breath from the start of the title track is connected to The Grants

There's this country singer Luke Combs (?) that's releasing on the 24th too. He does pretty well on streaming so I guess Lana will be battling him and Miley 

Even though I don't think Miley‘s third week will be that strong

Also she dont realease clean songsi hope she changes her label

Do you care more about these stupid charts than her artistic freedom? That is strange to me.  
 

I don’t understand the obsession with charts. I hope this record is true to Lana’s artistry, not an attempt to make the charts and get money like other musicians try to do. Lana’s indifference to that stuff makes her special and it’s what makes her music timeless. She will be held in much higher regard in a decade or longer than the artists today who just try to stick with the trends to top the charts. 
 

So can we stop obsessing over the charts?

That would be....perfect

I need the end of title track to morph perfectly into Sweet or to have at least a meaning

i’m craving buttered noodles on the veranda because of this damn tracklist making me hungry.. it’s 2am where i am..

[Super Movie 51,873]

It'd be so cool if the songs on this album flowed into one another like the songs on AKA do 

[Fingertips 72,053]

Can we go back to discussions about the album? Some of you have the I, but not the T

Luke's 2022 album did 74k in the US (less than COTCC), so I guess we're fine. Who we should be worried about is Fall Out Boy (also on the 24th). Their 2018 album sold 130k in its first week.

im sorry but if you think luke combs is competition in lana's eyes, in ben's eyes, in tap management's eyes, you are being very silly and i kinda live for it

I know, I still don’t understand how it correlates to those other things at all but I’m sure she’ll make sense

The image in my mind is her walking around Manhattan with her lover while it is raining

Yeah charts don’t always equals quality. I like to talk about it for the « politics » of it or trying to figure out what is Interscope’s possible « strategy » when it comes to her releases. But hey, let’s not kid ourselves : I’m sure they’re gonna come up with a new way to fuck up her numbers anyways 

besides, Norman wasn’t number 1 on week one but word of mouth got so strong that I think it got to the top spot like 3 weeks after anyways… 

Im curious how the critics are going to respond to this album. 

[cranekiss 9,728]

kinda have a feeling this album will give her the Grammy she wanted NFR to get 

[Fingertips 72,053]

 

USE IT - THANK YOU!

 

Anyways, "Peppers" will be the TJF/Cherry of the album 

[littleredpartydress 49,883]

ANYWAYS
