I would simply die for her to do Living Legend so we could all scream it at her. Our very own living legend 

OMG, this needs to happen! Now that one would be amazing live.

Okay umm.. i have officially just listened to the entire record (after not having heard any singles or even snippets) and i .. um ... okay.. i want to THROW UP ma'am.. spAre paper towels???

 

first of all... ok this will not be my review because im a little ok prety.. very drunk and high.. and sumn else but this was too much.. but i have some issues that really pissed me off  with some of ya'lls comments after having heard it.. why were ya'll saying jacks voice was bad? i literally heard nothing wrong.. that song is stunning.

 

and maybe i just love alt music too much and am a little numb to "abstract" shit but the judah smith was kinda beauiful, like stream "the god" or some of ethel cains music cus this shit is childs play you little bitches(yea u fag boz) .. either way i fucking loved it.. and it wasn't scary like stop being .. ??

!11

i was so fuckoing gAGGED BY FISHTail and pEPPERS!!! PLEASE.. these songs are sp good.!! absolotely not one bad song on this album

 

like, i cant think of a bad song, every track felt so estabalished, and even my high ass couldn't figure out a fault,

 

this is literally any true lana stan could ask for in terms of QUALITY, idk what else a hater could want, its probably justt the fans that became fans since" norman" that dont like it because this is LANA in her back to basics form and im going to CUM YES GIRLIES

 

 

 

ok real review coming when i sober up <3

Hilarious. Glad you enjoyed it. Have a good orgasm.

I thought Candy Necklace would just be cute/fun and was not prepared for it to metaphorically punch me in the fucking face  it’s haunting me the same way 13 Beaches did…I almost don’t want to listen to it because it hurts but I need to?? 

[Eugene 26,669]

Omg, Brady's reaction to Ocean Blvd is the best so far. Seeing him cry with Kintsugi was very touching. 

 

Too bad Youtube apparently blocked his video.

There’s something so dark and paradise-ish about candy necklace I feel like I’ve had this song for years not in a way it feels old or boring but in a sort of timeless way

That probably made no sense to anyone but it made sense to me xoxo

 

Right? Feels like a song right at home with UV or Paradise, but still feels so fresh. I’m so obsessed with it. Would love another darker sounding album from her, though Ocean Blvd had plenty of that for now. I love it

Two observations

 

1: How tf do AP News and Alt Press not count for Metacritic?

2. Why is a publication called ‘Financial Times’ reviewing albums?

If fantano likes Fingertips I think we are safe for at least a 7+ score

Why MC doesn't take those reviews into account?

What did she put in the Jon Batiste Interlude I literally cannot stop listening to Candy Necklace + JB interlude I was not expecting to love it this much

[Creyk 11,699]

The first day streams are about to be big!

I know everyone is entitled to their opinion etc but I'm surprised at the amount of people on reddit who dislike this album. 

Someone said that it had yeehaw vibes and I'm sorry but... where? 

[Lanaparadiserey 23,558]

One thing that irritates me is when people don’t even give something a chance. This album wasn’t even been out 24 hours and people already decided it is boring. It literally has what people have been asking for but apparently it isn’t good enough lol.

People are entitled to their opinions. I don't agree with the redditors but it is what it is. 

 

The album hasn't really grabbed me yet but I do go back a lot to the holy trinity from the album: AW, Paris Texas and Candy Necklace. 

 

I also asked around about the booklet for the album and nope she didn't put any lyrics or any effort into the art design, which means this is the first Lana album I am not physically buying. I will just buy the MP3 album on Amazon. It's just not worth me spending so much on a physical copy anymore. Too expensive for little effort in the artwork/booklet.

The Lana subreddit has to be the most toxic place that exists for Lana discussion
