Henry, Come On - Single [OUT NOW!]

[Pink Champagne]

On first listen, it made me tear up. It’s so beautiful and sad. I completely misunderstood the snippet when I first heard it, thinking it would be about a lasting relationship. But the song is actually so sad. I really love it. 

[Make me your Dream Life]

like it's just THAT good it's got me thinking myself, like hey Henry what's going on man? truly like
henry, come on - ?

This right here says it all. Old Money, Honeymoon, Yayo, all of these songs of which I’d consider her best, would be shit on. And the thing is people say she needs to “go back to her old sound” when those quite literally are her old sound and are just as slow and sparse as anything today. 
 

I agree so strongly with your entire comment. I think the younger fans of media, which you do see the majority of on tik tok, are obsessed with the perceived aesthetic of things and couldn’t care less about the ideas presented when they don’t align exactly with their own. Which is a scary place to be for art. White Lotus and Lana are great examples but it goes way beyond them. 

some of yall are lowkey crazy.. i think there’s a lot of people here who just think all ballads sound the same. because what do you mean you’re comparing henry to something like video games or old money lol

 

there’s a lot more that makes those songs unique. not just bpm girl

THIS SONG IS JUST SO CRISP AND CRYSTAL CLEAR!!! THIS SONG FEELS LIKE A WARM HUG!!!

 

This whole time when I was listening to this song I had a big smile on my face because it somehow made me feel so jolly and giddy but at the same time there was this wavering nostalgia around which can make you a bit melancholic.

 

This whole time I listened to the song, I pictured an image of LA or a Californian town where the sun is setting but in a way how you're facing the sunset and the sea with your back but you, yourself, are facing towards the road, seeing the highway and the houses and the rocky mountains in the golden light of the sunset - these are the new roads you're going to head and discover.

 

I think that the song told me that it's okay to move on AND miss those old times which were confusing and overwhelming. And I embrace it.

 

There are few main positive things I noticed when I listened to the song: the strings were so huge and clear, I'm so glad that they didn't sound muted, Drew did a great job with it. The piano in this song felt very Elton John-esque, as someone who listened to his ballads for years, I kind of recognized some of the piano play parts as very his. The orchestra really reminded me of Disney movies, especially those of the 1990s, it also sounded different from her other songs. It made the song feel very Christmassy or like very winter-y, which would've been a perfect for a January release in my opinion.

 

I didn't really instantly notice the melody similarities between Brooklyn Baby and Miley's Wrecking Ball but I do understand people's perspectives where they come from. Still, I think the song is as original as it is, the similarities aren't that noticeable.

 

None of Lana's other songs reminded me of Henry Come On to be honest. I think it's very Lana-esque and lyrically it really reminds me of her past three albums but I wouldn't tell that sonically it reminds me of a certain track. Maybe some of the pedal steel guitar or some elements reminded me of Margaret's production in that "when you know you know" part.

 

But the strings, which were very Disney-esque did remind me of stems from Love. While it was really different from her other orchestral music uses, I instantly recognized some of the violin twists from Love stems, at some point I thought they were sampled:

 

Overall, it's an amazing song with a beautiful production and great lyrics. Such a wonderful track - it's definitely my third favorite lead single right now, only behind West Coast and Video Games.

i feel like Henry came out directly from honeymoon (If it was a bit more acoustic) I don't know how they see COCC in this... it's literally like If Crazy for You had a baby with yayo

oh were getting acoustic honeymoon album were SO back

[Make me your Dream Life]

it's a very bright song. like sunlight passing through in rays thru grey stormclouds 

[ShadesOfViolence]

some profile photos come and they're gone, they just fly away🕊️

new pfp

[Three White Butterflies]

It’s sooooo lush and also:

Yesterday I heard god say 

you were born to be the one 

To hold the hand of the man

who flies to close to the sun

 

Just fucking beautiful and the way she sings it. Love her. 

[Make me your Dream Life]

it's not even raining but this song makes it feel like it is

i mean they're not really Lana fans, they're Jack Antonoff production fans

No they just expected Chappell roan type of music for whatever reason

told ya. ❤️

im sorry but the music after chemtrails just all sounds the same, mostly boring, to me and i do dislike it 

 

just like Henry, its a another slow whispery ballad with minimal production im tired!! ocean blvd did have some nice songs (like Let the light in) but give me something grand, new, sonically different and huge again!!  

[Crimson and Clover]

Very nice country infused sound, reminds me of the Nashville sound with a nice mix of the traditional pop sound from Ocean Blvd  it sounds very similar to the newest Mitski album (Heaven comes to mind) that Drew also has worked on. I’m sure TRPWS will be a bit more diverse in its sound to separate itself, I’m excited to see what’s next

I think Henry is far from boring. This might become one of my favourite Lana songs (gag), but im sad you feel that way. Hopefully there’s tracks for everyone on Right Person

are you listening to the same song? minimal production? like yeah, it’s soft, but it builds. you’ve got the plucky guitar, that cinematic string section creeping in and then it's center stage, you've got harp, and even that little sand-shaker thing. it’s textural, it's layered, it's giving emotional swell!! production isn’t just about being loud or having a beat drop, it’s about arrangement, atmosphere, movement, and Henry has the range imo.

[wipeout]

Loove the production on this. The way she sings 
 

And it’s not because of you

that I turned out so dangerous 

Is fantastic. Excited to see how the track flows with the rest of the album 

[Cherry Blossom]

i’m so excited to listen to this with headphones
