omg stop lying everyone knows she actually raided the store naked with nikki and kept screaming "LET ME SHOW YOU HOW BAD GIRLS DO" and broke her COCC vinyls and CDs 

truly horrifying I hope she's okay 

She must have sampled the sound of the smashing in the outro of bbs HER MIND ?

I still can't find 'Thunder' or 'Beautiful.' Is there anything new that has been done to 'Living Legend' or is it one of the versions we already have? Thanks. 

'IYLDWM' and 'VFR' have erected teepees in my psyche, and started a campfire too.

After finding out that 3 is the crucial number of BB, how crazy would it be to release three singles again together with the album?

 

Spoiler

A NFR-inspired MV with two or three songs tied together would be great.

 

Stormy weather; Lana is walking by herself on the road in the middle of the desert, wearing that gorgeous emerald dress from the BB alternate cover while she's singing the first chorus of Thunder; then she's gradually joined by her best friends, family members, musicians, dogs, cats, and background vocalists for the second half of the song leading to a spectacular climax. Billions of wigs will be snatched I fear.

i claimed VFR and 

Spoiler

i wasn't obsessed on first listen but now it's solidly in my second tier of favs...i wasn't on the BBS or IYLDWM train like many others but those two have turned out to be big time favs, as well as sweet carolina

absolutely!!!! Sweet Carolina, Beautiful, Black bathing Suit, Living Legend & Nectar of the Gods 

[plastiscguy]

Forced my mom into listening to BB and...

 

Spoiler

01. Text Book - She liked it a lot, actually... 

8/10

 

02. Blue Banisters - She liked it, but said she'd only listen to it as a background song, because it's pretty and chill, but doesn't go anywhere  

7/10

 

03. Arcadia - Her favorite, for some reason. She loves the melody 

10/10

 

04. Interlude - No words (like, she had no reaction at all) 

0/10?

 

05. Black Bathing Suit - She was vibing quite a lot until the bridge/outro started

07/10 

 

06. If You Lie Down With Me - She said it's okay, but it feels like a filler

6/10

 

07. Beautiful - "It's pretty"  I'm not sure whether she liked it or was just being polite.

?/10???

 

08. Violet for Roses - "It's pretty" x2

?/10???

 

09. Dealer - She dragged this one  I'll just play it a lot until she's okay with Lana yelling.

5/10

 

10. Thunder - She LOVES this one  ever since the demo leaked, I always hear her humming the lyrics while she does the chores. Her serve! 

10/10

 

 

11. - Wildflower Wildfire - "I don't know. It's cute, but not as cute as the others"  for some reason, she hated it since it was released. Taste left the chat. 

7/10

 

12. - Nectar of the Gods - She didn't like it... she made several points

4/10

 

13. Living Legend - SHE LOVED IT  but didn't have any reaction to the vocal/guitar part? 

10/10

 

14. Cherry Blossom - She almost fell asleep to it, but said it had a beautiful melody and she sounded really nice 

9/10

 

15. Sweet Carolina - She didn't have many things to say at this point. I guess she was bored already, but she promised she liked it! 

9/10

 

Spoiler

Her favorite Lana songs are Salvatore, The Greatest, Get Free and Old Money, btw

Am I the only one that genuinely likes 

Spoiler

the screaming on Dealer? I expected chaotic screams but they actually sound very pleasing to the ears, not just angry

i'm really REALLY manifesting it's anything but arcadia - that song already has two music videos - the public needs to know what else she has. imagine if she puts up the middle finger for the 3rd time lmao

Oh god I didn't think about that. If she's performing Arcadia she's definitely putting the middle finger up (on fucking live television )

For some reason, in the leaked version she sounds angrier? I'm not sure if it's a demo, or what...

 

But yeah, she sounds really good. I want her to yell at me next

Yeah the demo is definitely angrier and more rasp. She sounds much better and clearer on the official, but I’m not sure which version i like more since they’re both great

same! seriously any song of the record (other than beautiful sorry) would better than arcadia, esp something like thunder which is so much more lively.

i love it! just generally love hearing lana use her voice in new/unexpected ways

[blueice]

I first got in touch with Picasso's blue period at the 2018 "Bleu et rose" exhibition of Picasso in the Musee D'Orsay in Paris, so I really got emotional with "Beautiful".

I keep seeing COCC as a side A, and BB as a side B of the same record. 

[WaitForLife]

I downloaded the leak and I had it on my phone. I heared randomly songs and Dealer came on. It's a creepy song. I wish it was Lana solo.
