The theatrics though >>>

Well she sang her self described country songs Ride and Video Games

01. Off to the Races
02. Born to Die
03. Blue Jeans
04. Dark Paradise
 
Listen in this order
It feels like each outro literally transitions to the next song's intro 
It just blows my mind
How is this possible 

Happy 12th to this beautiful baby..! Can’t believe a person’s age is equivalent to this album’s age… it’s either time moving too fast (2007s entering college still boggles my brain) or born to die just feel that old… love it

This song sounded very girl-group, 60s-esque to me and upon further research, I realized that The Shangri-Las had a song titled “Past, Present & Future”.
 
 
Lana revealed in 2019 that some of her early work with Jack before they settled on a direction for NFR was similar to the LFL title track and she referred to it as “hip-hop girl-group” - so I wonder if this song was borne out of those early 2018 sessions and was revisited/reworked more recently for Lasso. 

The lines “we both shouldn’t be dealing with him” and “don’t make me say it again” are PEAK fuck me moments in this song like
 
 
Both lyrically and her delivery in those lines are top tier like she really did that they really shake me to my core in the context of the song like 

 
There’s an urgency there, a command, a revelation, a clarity that it’s time to GO bluebird henny hurry bitch!! 

Why is it not allowed to have a Lana song that’s not favorite, especially on Twitter? Can people not voice their opinion. This is a flawed thinking. Because why are people allowed to hate on Guns and Roses but not Bluebird?? Favoritism. 
 
I truly wish not to come off as rude but sometimes I think the people who barked back at people who’s unsatisfied with Bluebird are newer fans… newer fans who don’t understand Lana’s full potential. It doesn’t have to be another banger, no. Banger is not Lana’s foray def. But make the ballads more creative… Terrence Loves You (the sound. Not the lyric), Yosemite comes to mind
 
Edit: saying this as someone whose favorite Lana album is literally OB

Hey besties
Just joined lanaboards a couple days ago
I haven't posted yet so I decided to create a topic as my first post
So I made this list
Lana stuff intentionally released on specific dates
Obviously a lot of you guys know most of it but I thought a list was necessary so we can add future Lana stuff to it and to just see all of it altogether as a list
If I'm missing something please let me know
And share your opinions
Which one was satisfying/interesting to you personally and still is to this day?
And Which ones you weren't aware of?
 

Yeah I thought the song ended abruptly. Maybe it would flow into an another song? And I felt like the bridge “These country singers” part starts and ends little disconnected with the next chorus but anyways. i love her vocals sm yoooo. Reminds me of her 2011-2012 baby vocals actually. I like this song! Would actually listen to it over and over again. 
 
edit: and dang what’s with insiders earbuds really… saying this song would be as bland as change from LFL. Like the way they said watercolor eyes would sound like fuck it i love you and dark but just a game…

Yeah, when will we learn to stop listening to these insiders about the quality of the music...

INSTRUMENTS WE HAVE INSTRUMENTS 

Sza would sound good for a remix… truly the beatdrop reminds me of good days

thinking about how batshit my trip here was. it
 was my first time traveling alone outside of my state and within the first two hours of being there, i lost my hotel reservation  i almost had to just sleep on the streets of the city until i found an inn that was able to take me in for the night. then i wandered around the streets of boston for like 8 hours with my ihop pancakes. then the concert almost got cancelled. 
then lana came on looking beautiful as ever and we got two new songs debuted. i flew home with a higher blood pressure than i came in with, but if i had the chance, i would do it all over again

Norman is really lana’s fav album of her own… and rightfully so

It should be known that the lyrics are actually
 
"He's Bonnie on the side, Bonnie on the side
Makes me a sad sad, girl" 
/
"He's money on the side, money on the side
Makes me a sad sad, girl"
 
*She cuts the "that" and "it" in the final version, but they're not present in the second verse which means the lead vocal was done mostly in one take! there's some obvious cutting through...*
*bridge to final verse was recorded separately, for those interested in how she recorded the song* 
 
It's not "His bonnie on the side" / "His money on the side"
