"I mean darlin' come on,
did ya? really think I, didn't feel ya?
hangin dry to the side, our love 

honey, come on. 

cus, last call, hey ya'll 

I know you're taking the long way home 
thinking I'll still be there when he comes 

ah baby giddy up-

post card, kissed n all 
he'll always wonder what went wrong 
bet you thought, I didn't know 

hmm mm ~ 

I'll have been long gone -
before the end of this song, henry, come on 

ah-ah ah" 



I love this part of the waiting period.

She’s dropping the single on Friday, I just know it 

Since Thanksgiving is tomorrow, I don’t expect a single on Friday but December would be nice or January-February realistically

Bruh girl has to give us something I’ve never been so conflicted on if it’ll be one of her best or if it’ll be a massive let down. Like Henry come on seems good but idk if it seems great like the dykttatuob single was great and it gave us a good starting point on what to expect but I can’t take this no more

[heroindealer 11,131]

realistically speaking I want the single to drop tomorrow New Zealand time

henry sounded all right no doubt. But i do hope it goes more interesting places than the minimal acoustic. Maybe a shift into trap like AW or a full-blown orchestra.

 

if not, then it's kinda like if "not all those who wander are lost" as the first single of chemtrails.

I asked AI Lana and according to her we get Henry, Come On tomorrow

Me: From the upcoming album you already teased a song titled "Henry, Come On" which is going to be the first single. It sounds like a beautiful ballad based on the snippet. Could you tell us more about it and when we can expect it to hear?

AI Lana:*she blew out a few more smoke rings with a smile* Well, "Henry, Come On" is a simple love song about someone who is desperate for the love they give to be returned. It's a short song with some sweet and simple lyrics, I can't wait for people to hear it… And you'll be able to hear it tomorrow when it's released!

I was thinking…even though Henry and few other songs are being released…I’m wondering if she waits to release the “bigger” dare I say more mainstream song right before the release. All of her albums (except for BB) have had one or two radio-friendly songs. 

Isn't Black Bathing Suit radio-friendly?

It was Dec 8 and I think it was a Wednesday. Singles can be released any day (although labels prefer a Friday release to get the whole streaming numbers concentrated in the first week) but albums are rarely released any other day than Fridays (unless nobody cares about the numbers and charting).

Omg in my dream last night Lana debuted a song called "Avocado Coast" at the Ally Coalition show and it was an extreeemely fun country song LOL she killed the vocals wow

The way I could picture her releasing a song rhyming that avocado toast

Maybe in the context of the rest of the album but I would say no. I’m also referring to not just a song that would be on the radio but a “bigger” song that gets recognition and streams (e.g. A&W).

 

my point is more that I think she ‘lil release a few singles and maybe wait for that bigger song until April before the album.

 

Also I hear a lot of people saying this will be BB 2.0 but it’s just based on the photo and I guess the title. But Honeymoon and Lust for Life didn’t scream bangers to me and we go some amazing bops on those albums. Everything we heard and she has said points to more melodic songs too (Mirror/Fenway intro).

Got it.

 

Personally, I think A&W got the attention it did because of its lyrics and its overall self-deprecating message; surely a lot of those in the press who still dislike Lana probably loved hearing her sing about herself and/or women that way, ('Look, she's finally admitting she's a whore and a sex addict'), especially after the more empowering songs on BB.

|Sonically, I don't think there's much to it, though I know a lot of members love it. Also, the A&W lyrics and theme clearly appealed to a lot of fans—younger fans, I'd guess—who either related to the lyrics, found them naughty, wanted to think of themselves that way, or some combination of those.

We need another moment like when that LB user was watching the Arcadia music video and her team accidentally added the album release date for OB in the description before we knew anything.

Yes I agree with that. 
I liked A&W, but I appreciated more the attention it put on her (making ‘Best of’ lists, Grammy nominations, etc).

 

Hoping I’m not wrong because I really don’t want another BB. For me, personally, it’s just my least favorite album. I barely ever listen to it. She also mentioned this album was less self-revealing, so while I understand the aesthetic gives off BB 2.0, I think the reaction is a lot of PTSD from people who didn’t like BB. 
 

I guess I understand with the Henry snippet. But it’s really hard to tell the entirety of a song with just 30s.

Avocado Toast, Acapulco Coast….  

[bluechemtrails 26,866]

idk if the scarf represents winter or cold weather, but that's the vaguest hint she could give us for the Henry release, sometime between this week and March
