Who cares about exact release dates or what someone promises? Nobody forces you to be a fan, to make music or to listen to someone's music. Let's just have fun, when a new album is there, it's there and you enjoy. In the meantime, you just do other things.

preach - i personally like that it’s not so professional but that might just be me, we’re still getting music and it’s still good, we know that she loves her fans, but still, like you said @taco truck, she doesn’t owe us anything, and it doesn’t matter why she had to delay the album, and it shouldn’t be our business. but about the vinyl production, she said in 2019 when nfr came out that she has more involvement in the making of her vinyls, so they have to be submitted something like 90 days beforehand, which could potentially cause problems

but like i said before it doesn’t matter what the problem is because it’s none of our business

Some folks were talking about The Trio single cover art (and how bad it was). I wasn’t quite as *involved* back then and i couldn’t find it, or don’t know what I’m looking for. Could someone share it?

Has anyone been watching this guys reaction series? He did all of NFR and has moved on to COTCC. He goes pretty in depth and seems to legitimately love every single song. His style is great too, doesn’t pause too much, etc. A lot of the NFR series he did music videos and live performances too.

He decided to try and get through COCC and BB before Tunnel comes out and then do that one, then go back to BTD and go in order from there. He’s also doing Red Taylor’s Version right now, and has done Folklore, Evermore, and Midnights. I usually can’t stand these kind of channels but his delivery is really really good.

Yayyy. I've been watching him since he started NFR and I love him 

 

I love how he does one song for each video so he can go in depth and that he actually says interesting stuff and reads interviews and such for more context on each track and album

I agree, he has helped me appreciate the songs even more. 

 

I may have shed a tear or two along with him in some of those NFR videos.

YES! I love his reactions. The way he analyzes songs and makes comments without talking nonsense.

I wrote a short paper for my media course:

 

Lana Del Rey's "Ultraviolence" from her 2014 album has sparked a great deal of debate and criticism in recent years. Many people have accused the title track of romanticizing abuse and toxic relationships. However, as a music critic and a person with common sense, I strongly disagree with these accusations and believe that Lana Del Rey is one of the most talented and insightful songwriters of our time.

 

It's essential to understand the background behind "Ultraviolence." The song is a ballad that delves into the darker side of love and desire. Its lyrics depict a toxic relationship, but instead of celebrating it, they serve as a cautionary tale. They highlight the complexities and pain of love, warning listeners about the risks of unhealthy relationships. One of the most remarkable things about "Ultraviolence" is its musicality. Lana's haunting voice and atmospheric production create a spellbinding mood that's both captivating and ominous. The melody is straightforward but powerful, drawing the listener in and heightening the emotional impact of the lyrics. The result is a mesmerizing listening experience that's unique in contemporary music.

 

Additionally, Lana's song writing skills are on full display in "Ultraviolence." Her lyrics are carefully crafted to convey a specific message, and they succeed in doing so in a way that's both relatable and universal. She sings about a toxic relationship with raw honesty, capturing the confusion and pain that often accompany such relationships.

 

It's worth mentioning that the controversy surrounding "Ultraviolence" is part of a broader cultural conversation about the role of women in popular music. Some people have suggested that Lana's image and music are intentionally provocative, and that the controversy surrounding her work is an attempt to silence a strong female voice. This is a flawed perspective, and it fails to recognize the vital message that Lana is trying to communicate through her music.

 

In conclusion, "Ultraviolence" is a powerful and thought-provoking song that deserves to be recognized for its musical and lyrical brilliance. The allegations that it romanticizes abuse and toxic relationships are misguided, and they overlook the context and significance of the lyrics. "Ultraviolence" is a commentary on the complexities and dangers of love, and it showcases Lana's talents as a singer and songwriter.
