(About the record) But I really love it, I’ve got a couple of songs on there like ‘Coachella’ that I love the production for

She's gotta be joking. Surely.

Lmao. Hey if someone is selling a copy of her vinyl L4L limited edition, please let me know, I didn't get a copy in time.

I'm hearing that Lana debuted with 103k or 109k in the US, not sure which is true but wtf is taking Billboard so long to publish the official report

I wonder why Lust For Life flopped

I wonder why Lust For Life flopped

I believe wrong single choices and no tv performance or interview..

I don't blame it

Imho the singles were fine except for Coachella and Groupie Love (I really love GL though), Cherry and White Mustang would've done better and they wouldn't have caused so much negativity and low expectations for the album like Coachella did

Totally...13 beaches too according to the Spotify streams

If I remember correctly UV only had the now cancelled Letterman? And the singles for UV lacked any real promotion imo

Really? Then maybe 13 Beaches instead of White Mustang, that would've kept everyone excited.

you call a #1 album on BB a flop?

UV had that hype from BTD

Yes..but BTD (music and era) had built a very big hype for UV and high expectations..

UV sold well bc it was her big second record after BtD, Young and Beautiful, and probably most importantly the Summertime Sadness remix. With an artist like Lana who doesn't make radio friendly music, saleswise it's always going to be diminishing returns

103k units for a fifth studio album? Yes, thats a flop

Lana still had Paradise so its not like Lana was just coming out into the music scene again with Paradise, but that's just all imo

Makes sense

But it's fine, I mean, if you look closely at the 1960's - 1990's top charts, none of those artists are really remembered, only the good ones are remembered (as cheesy as this sounds I think it's true).

Not when there was barely any proper promo. I'd say that for her, this number is amazing.

For her style and music she does she is impressively well known
