I wonder why Jack said "that's a story for another time" when asked about Lasso in October. Maybe it's because he knew Lana was reworking it into The Right Person Will Stay? I'm nosy and neeeed some BTS gossip 

Its because Lasso is still coming late 2025 and TRPWS is actually the surprise @Pantene123 was talking abt, iktr

100% it’s not random, she’s chose the QFTC date to prove a point; even if she knows the album won’t be dropped that day.. she’s made her ideas/intentions clear and has prompted the thought for people to connect the dots 

this is the same woman that put up a billboard about a performance over a decade ago she still to this day gets criticized for. Queen of petty she never forgets

Yeah, and the fact she has booked all her UK stadium tours over the top of Glastonbury after the Glasto saga where everybody ripped her apart and called her a nobody 

 

petty af and I’m here for it

so we have now six months to think about why she chose 'the right person' instead of 'the right one' for the title

I wonder whet she blackmailed Ben with this time so he agreed to not release this album on Friday

it's more powerful because it leaves the other party with a sense and of more personal agency by humanizing them, rather than being more of a concept or half

Good point. HIAB is a great example.

i don’t love the title of the album…and I definitely hope she has better cover art.

 

she did this with the BB singles and with the NFR singles too. Remember Mariners and VB cover art? Totally different than the album cover…so I guess it’s to say there is so much that will come. I don’t think this is all final (except maybe the album title).

I don't think it's the album art either, but for someone who photographs so well, her album art is, to me, generally poor/disappointing/third rate. 

 

I'm hoping for Henry and 12 entirely new songs, no Country Roads, no Prettiest Girl in Country Music.

I love the photo. it's giving American Whore single cover, but she decided to spruce it up more

I think it’s simply classic Jack behaviour of talking almost nothing of an album until the artist started doing so. But then again, maybe there is some drama behind the scenes 

[GeminiLanaFan 49,165]

About the Wednesday release, I don’t think it will happen on the 21st, because labels usually don’t release albums on days other than Friday. Usually. 
The National surprised dropped Laugh Track on a Sunday night. Ethel Cain will release Perverts on a Wednesday (I think it’s because it is released through her independent label and everybody knows this project has zero chances of doing well in the charts, even if it seems like an artistic tour de force from what we’ve heard). 
as for Lana, unless her label and her are sure that there is no fat chance of a possible good spot in terms of charting, The right person will stay will be released on a Friday.

Then that's a plus for me, as I love 90% of the new or previously unreleased tracks on BB—it's her early middle-age Carly Simon album. I don't mind Beautiful or Sweet Carolina either. 

 

I wonder though how much we can trust or rely on that as any kind of a marker—to me, for example, COCC, supposedly partially or greatly made up of NFR! scraps, to my ear, doesn't sound anything like NFR!

 

I miss your old member photo. 

I don’t mind it either really, I’m not sure I personally needed them just now however….but as she’s worked on these songs 4 years she probably just wants to get them out already and done with.  I liked the energy of the mirror/lake placid song from her last tour so I hope the album isn’t completely stripped back.
