I’ve been a Henry supporter from day one but idk I’m just in the mood right now for upbeat poppy music, a simple guitar ballad feels more like a winter/spring of 2024 thing. Not a spring/summer of 2025 song 11 Quote "Don’t forget me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless Pantene meant lyrically? But even then, change fits LFL pretty well lyrically too I took it to mean it's not a great representation of the album as whole. Change is a stripped down piano ballad compared to the rest of Lust for Life which bounces between hip hop beats, cinematic orchestra and a spacey retro vibe. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not a spring/summer of 2025 song I really like the melody of the snippet and I haven’t listened to it so much, so it’s bearable. I have no expectation for this album, which I hope helps me appreciate it more. When I dive into a Lana era without preconceived idea, it’s when I usually love it more. That being said, I must admit that I agree with you and Henry is not a song I would associate with spring or summer either 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

West Coast 45,919 Posted 19 hours ago Neither disappointed, nor surprised that this is the first single, nor am I shocked at the direction she's going for this album. This snippet/single is just giving LMLYAW déjà vu. She's made it clear she doesn't want to take the grand/bombastic road again. Yeah sure once every blue moon she'll ask Jack to throw some beats in there, and he'll use his 2$ drum set to do so, but that's a whole other discussion. Anyways, she's going in the direction I expected her to, which is the organic, understated, stripped back route. She's a seasoned act, and this is her vibe now--and at this point in time, I'm at peace with that. I just wish she'd release this single sooner so we'd get over it quickly and just move on. 10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black to Blue 6,216 Posted 19 hours ago I wish she would’ve just released this as a one off single back when she posted the first snippet like she did with Take Me Home, Country Roads. That way the single could’ve just been released and not tied down to any album 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
