been re-reading her old interviews from 2023 and found this:

As such, she has plans to write an album of standards — classic, simple songs that could reach even more people than she does now. A bit like the gorgeous, piano-led cover of Take Me Home, Country Roads by John Denver that she released on Friday, or the Elvis Presley version of Unchained Melody that she recorded at Graceland for a Christmas TV show. She is a star who not only finally feels understood, but also finally understands.

so, when she was living in nashville in late 2023, she was writing an album of standards (i don't really know what that could mean but the journalist brought these country roads and unchained melody covers as examples). and what we also know is that she was in nashville with luke laird whom she wrote henry come on with. so those "classic, simple songs" could basically means songs like henry come on. which i wouldn't mind but i have a strange feeling that the song might be...scrapped. 

 

honestly, it has been "difficult" (it's not really the right word to describe but you'll understand) last months in terms on music and news. like i know we've been fed these last five years with a lot of albums and songs and content but for the first time as a fan i just...do not have a great feeling about this album's fate. something doesn't add up, especially jack's latest interview where his "tone" was more pessimistic than in previous months where he was talking about lasso. i know that she just recently married, is on her honeymoon and wants her privacy - and i respect that. 

 

the era hasn't really started properly as well, we did have snippets and jack-being-hyped-interviews in nfr and cotcc eras but everything about lasso era feels so dead and lifeless. i need news so bad, i'm desperate for that. i want this forum to be alive and full of energy like it was earlier this year when lana announced lasso. the only thing we're holding onto is the southern gothic themes and two-more-singles-by-the-end-of-2024 thing. i don't think these were tough remixes, she never cared for remixes. so this last week of october, november and december are our last hopes for singles and news - and i really want to me optimistic and this might be my another case of delusion - but i really really hope that at least one single is released in those months. that "country yeehaw" photoshoot which her stylist molly teased is quite vague as well since she works with a lot of celebrities. but i do hope it's for lana. if it's not for an album maybe it is for a magazine or a brand. there's this stagecoach show and rumoured liverpool show too but i don't know if shows can indicate anything, we got nothing new this year besides that "past present" intro song - which i hope which will be released some day. we can still hold onto that "cool non-lasso" thing which pantene teased as well...

I've been a hard-core fan since the home-made Blue Jeans video. 

 

Tough aside, this is by far the most boring time to be a Lana stan.

 

By far. Maybe it's not the longest period without music or news, but it feels like the longest.

How captivating is Jimmy Gnecco's voice ?!? No wonder Lana was such a hardcore Stan of Jimmy. I really wish they collab. Just imagine if Lana sang on the track I've posted above with Jimmy...How heavenly it would sound

Like Lana, like fan.

[UltraviolentJack 2,811]

yeah i don’t think those two singles are coming this year. she’s too busy with that old man.

[Make me your Dream Life 87,782]

I'm keeping optimistic. She's getting to know the alligators better so she can have them feat background vocals in the songs. in true fishtail swamp style form

If anfield is being announced can she hurry up whilst I’ve just been paid 

[Thats why they call me Dita 9,765]

Also I’d kill for a Lana football top lol, so I’m fully believing this random person through pure hope and delusion

I remember seeing it on his story at the time and fully believing it too and then things just got more silent than I thought was possible and all hope died 

 

the new potential insider has reignited my delusion tho 

[ldrzodiac 1,281]

My whole family are Liverpool supporters and I will DEFINITELY be going to see Lana if she performs at Anfield!!!!

[honeymoon is alive 21,156]

you’ll never walk alone live performance is coming 

[motel six 3,358]

celtic and liverpool girlies pulling up to anfield for you’ll never walk alone live performance by our queen

[SalvaWHORE 34,006]

what the fuck is an "Anfield" ? it better be a song title

It's the first time I don't care about a Lana release. I care for her music since 2011 but something's really off with Lasso. And something's off in general but I can't really say what.
I really like when she creates with her own guts and collaborators and not based on a musical tendency like country music (if Tough is a sample of what Lasso can be I'm pessimistic).
