it's funny - 4 albums in with Jack (counting Violets) and zero hits on Billboard 100 as a solo artist. Meanwhile, an unreleased with Rick drops and it's charting for 3 weeks - longest since High by the Beach. Something's fishy with that.

 

We know he can make hits for Taylor etc. not inplying he's not pulling the weight, they're collabs are fire, but I wonder if lana would have bigger songs if she got back w rick or hayne

The songs that song Rick did on NFR are the least listened to on that album. The majority of people also don’t seem to care that much about Yosemite or Cherry Blossom. Yes to Heaven was an outlier since it had already blown up on Tik Tok before it was even released, so it was kind of guaranteed to chart. It doesn’t matter what producer she works with, if her songs aren’t promoted and released at the beginning of a tracking week.

With you. No Yosemite nor Cherry Blossom slander in this household. Eternal faves.

i want her to showing i'm so random personality in terms of sound and lyrics. chaotic, unhinged, many switches up, transitions, random moments, quirky vibe, absurdal funny lyrics. album like that would be iconic.

NFR is currently her third most streamed album (just short  behind UV), was on top of many year-end-lists and got a grammy nomination. Chemtrails and Ocean Blvd had good critics and Ocean Blvd is one of the best selling female albums in the US this year as far I know. Also Chemtrails vinyl broke a sale record in UK 2021.

Me too! They are just both songs that people were crazy about before they were released and then went mostly ignored when they were actually released.

Let's not get carried away. syth was dropped on a Friday. A&W debuted in the bubbling under chart while it was released on a Tuesday. Plus SYTH was super popular on tiktok and the Gram. If A&W had the same playlisting and announcements it would've gotten Top 50 BB100 easily.

so true

I just want her to make iconic music & give us the quality of music videos that we got in the UV era. Shades of cool, west coast, UV & the UV album trailer eat down to this day

so, it's Ben's fault then? Just curious how this works.

[blackenedrussianpoetry]

Lana’s music is too weird for us people to hold/follow hope in having her on the charts nowadays…

Why do you care about the charts or promo or hit songs though. This isn't a race lol. Lana's music and how she wants to publish it is all about Lana, these are her wishes and we need to respect that. She isn't held hostage, don't worry about that.

 

also omfg i just found out that care and race are anagrams

A new album w Jack full of just upbeat songs would destroy the charts idc

 

omg imagine an album packed with songs like doin' time, national anthem, radio, high by the beach, music to watch boys to, etc.

 

yes i know antonoff didn't produce any of them lol, but antonoff plus lana's lighter mood = diamond ?

[Psychedelic Pussy]

If she thinks she can serve us a country album and not her trip hop psychedelic rock masterpiece….. honey… there will be RIOTSSSSS

[West Coast]

The people that produced/worked on Candy Necklace & Let The Light In and throw some Rick Nowels songwriting/bridges in there.

I’m unmanifesting this 

[Eugene]

I would love an album with the sound of Terrence Loves You and Salvatore. Lana's enigmatic songs are always the best.

 

I think Candy Necklace is the closest thing she's done recently with that vibe.

[Embach]

Today I'm manifesting some random cool weird shit:

 

Industrial metal album 

Long form visual movie directed by Lana Del Rey

An album where each song had a long ass shocking bridge

Psychedelic jazz songs

Chaotic themes

90s trip hop vibes

Screaming

High quality crystal clear vocals

Honeymoon original concept disco album vibes

1920s NOIR JAZZY SULTRY ART DECO DAVID LYNCH VIBES
