in what world NFR is more cohesive than Chemtrails lol, COTCC might be her most cohesive sounding album ever.

COCC is her most cohesive album to date… and yet, in the Interview mag, you feel like she wanted the album to have more of a « second part », one where things would shake up a bit (with Dealer)… and it didn’t happen. 
NfR is diverse enough and more enjoyable as a whole IMO.

I know it’s not likely and we already have the material but I wish that she would release high quality versions of her most popular unreleased songs. SK, UATW, QOD, MMITPM, KOOL, EMGHW, CBY, etc deserve to be released to the general public. Of course these songs have already raked up several millions of views on YouTube, but it would be cool to see how casual listeners react to the material, and see which ones become the most streamed/favored over time.

 

I honestly don’t see how it could even work because she has so much material that could be split into several releases of unreleased content, depending on the mood or vibe of the song. But it would be enough if she just chose 15 or so of her favorite unreleased and mastered them and put them out there on an official platform. Just to pay homage to them and how loved they are among her fan base and even casual listeners.

 

This just came to mind because I was reading about UATW and it said in 2017 that it was one of her faves and she would like to release it in the future. With how she’s treated leaked content up until now, she’ll probably just continue to use them for the right project or pull from unleaded demos she has sitting around. Maybe it’s for the better - she has nothing to prove and her discography as a whole (incl unreleased work or not) speaks for itself.

Is it actually verified that she was with Mike Hermosa? We saw them together a few times after Blue Banisters, especially on the Polaroids of Paul Salem, but maybe they just worked together for the album all the time. As far as I remember, she never officially confirmed this relationship.

i messaged this one girl that was at svetas wedding (lanas close friend) and she said lana and mike were together the whole night (this was november 2021) and they were "kissing and hugging", so yeah. if i find her tik tok ill post it here bc there's videos of them cuddling.

I agree. I never said it wasn’t cohesive. I literally repeated what Lana said in an interview

Exactly, COCC just feels like it is missing a little something. It isn’t bad or non-cohesive

Also cohesive doesn’t equal amazing music. COCC is beautiful but it blends together and can feel uneventful

From Courtney Love’s interview:

 

Spoiler

Love also claimed she introduced Lana Del Rey to the music of Joni Mitchell. “She described a record she wanted to make to me, and I’m like, ‘Oh you mean Hissing Of Summer Lawns,’ which, I don’t even like that record. She’s like, ‘what’s that?’ I’m like, ‘It’s a Joni Mitchell record.’ She’s like, ‘Who’s that?'” “Wow,” Maron interjects. Love: “I know.” Love said that she got her friend “all the Joni” vinyl at a Portland record store after which Lana “changed her ******* whole thing.”

 
I’m guessing it’s the change came with NFR

It's not what she said though? And the first songs she made with Jack were Hope and Love song, not MAC/VB.

tbh I think this is a big lie, because if Lana only knew Joni's music after recording VB and MAC in 2018, she wouldn't have done Bartender in 2017 (non conventional structure and the "ladies of the canyon" lyric...) no way Lana didn't know who Joni Mitchell is lol

Ouuuu this getting good  so courtney is once again a liar? Doesnt surprise me. If i remember correctly Court shit talked lana a few years back.  Like right after the endless summer tour iirc. But things are tied back up now, especially considering the "court almost burnt down my home" line. Unless that line wasn't a playful poke like we thought

Well that completely explains why the NFR Vinyls had a different (and lets admit it, less good) version of FIILY. She has GOT to be to more timely when it comes to submitting things. She's 10 years in  bffr

 

 

Manifesting that everything is as it's meant to be and submitted on time with this new album
