I guess this is MPG, you know, the lyrics have something "cold" about them and Money Power Glory sounds like a song about ruthless upper-class people ^^

Lyrics from that poster could be from the same song on the last postcard

I can read the word 'blue' there...

[Lad 8,801]

I can read the word 'blue' there...

And 'divine' too

Yes I can see this too. The flower one also looks like West Coast

I can't find Lana in the iTunes column browser, did anyone see the writing credits for Is This Happiness?

Herself and Rick Nowels iirc

[Jean 4,117]

And writers for Flipside? Are they revealed? There are no writers on wiki

 

Edit: I've seen it already

I lost the thread with the crazy Mariah fan, but Lana's back at #2 in iTunes and MC is #3 :]

So the Tracks with explict-content will be Cruel World, Brooklyn Baby, Pretty When You Cry (wonder what will be explict about this one, or if it just will be something like "f*cking crazy"), F*cked My Way up To The Top (suprise!) and  Is This Happiness. All the other ones, including "Flipside" will be "clean", at least concerning the words she uses ^^

I'm assuming Pretty When You Cry will be a VAST cover (and I'm dying at the thought of it, I mean the song was literally made for Lana) - it has the lyrics 'I didn't want to f*ck you baby, I didn't want to f*ck you but you're pretty when you're mine'. 

 

I was kind of hoping Ultraviolence would be explicit though.

So on twitter I just saw the Japanese itunes will be gettin both Flipside and Is This Happiness tracks. Flipside is going to be a long one! Like over 5 minutes. They're lucky.

So I saw that 'cold cash divine, cashmere, cologne and white sunshine' UV promo poster on tumblr and couldn't find it anywhere in hq so I made this bc it's just so gorgeous and ultraviolent.

PWYC was written by Lana and her guitarist tho... so it's safe to say it's not a cover

its not

[LittleFool 1,912]

When I think about it, Pretty When You Cry could easily be slightly sappy, or something really dark. I almost imagine it along the lines of Ultraviolence ("he hit me and it felt like a kiss") where there could be explicit abuse and someone is getting physical (or verbal) and telling her she's prettier when she's crying. I dunno. But I think it could potentially be monstrously fucked up.

Well, even if it may sound weird, I really want songs like this on the album. I mean, it's called Ultraviolence, so it shouldn't bee all fun and games and just about "failed relationships" or something. UV itself .. yeah, it fits the theme, but I want more songs with "ultraviolent" topics, so Lana shows us she's not always the flower-crown-wearing girl with lovesongs.

I saw on twitter that UV had leaked? Idk, might be someone trolling.
