Anything not slow paced from the l words so far?

Spoiler

Peppers is seemingly an uptempo bop, Grandfather is very lively and dynamic although definitely in ballad territory. Other three are more slow paced, but not snail paced

Lana went deep on this album... based on the leaks alone, it's going to take a few listens for some of yall to wrap your heads around these songs. Very dense. 

I love to hear this, because that’s when Lana shines- when it takes 10 good listens before the melody even breaks through but then it takes 10 more YEARS for the songs to get old cuz they just keep aging like fine way. Whew!

 

Can’t wait to hear it LEGALLY in 3 weeks. No crime here!! Fries Eating GIF

The Fingertips lyrics are pretty dark. Her mental illness, family member's suicide, rape, her ex-boyfriend dying, dragging her mom...

When I look back

Tracing fingertips

Over plastic bags

Thinking I wish I could extrapolate

Some small intention

Or maybe just get your attention

For a minute or two

 

Will I die?

Or will I get to that ten year mark

Where I beat the extinction

Of telomeres 

And if I do, will you be there with me?
Father, sister, brother

Charlie, stop smoking

Caroline, will you be with me?

Will the baby be alright?

Will I have one of mine?

Can I handle it

Even if I do?

You said that I might

It’s not fair, or so they said

To carry a child

I guess I’ll be fine…

 

It wasn’t my idea

The cocktail of things

That twist neurons inside

But without them

I’d die

 

They say there’s irony in the music

It’s a tragedy, I

See nothing Greek in it
 

Give me a mausoleum
In Rhode Island
With dad, Grandma, Grandpa, and Dave

Who hung himself real high

In the National Park sky

It’s a shame

And I’m crying right now

To get to you, save you

If I take my life

Find your astral body

Put it into my eyes

Give you two seconds to cry

Take you home, I

I’ll give you a blanket

Your spirit can sit and watch TV by my side

‘Cause baby, I

Ran through a time when I felt you were doing it
I couldn’t handle it
I was in Monaco
I couldn’t hear what they said on the telephone
I had to sing for the Prince in two hours
Sat in the shower

Gave myself two seconds to cry
It’s a shame that we die

When I was 15, naked

Next door neighbors did a drive-by
Pulled me up by my waist
Long hair, to the beach side

I wanted to go out like you…

Swim with the fishes
That he caught on Rhode Island beaches
But sometimes it’s just not your time

 

Caroline…
What kind of mother was she to say
I’d end up in institutions?

All I wanted to do was kiss Aaron Green

And sit by the lake

Twisting lime into the drinks

That they made

Have a babe at 16

The town I was born in and die

Aaron ended up dead and not me

What the ****’s wrong in your head

To send me away never to come back

Exotic places and people

To take the place of being your child?
 

I give myself two seconds to cry

Let it crash over me

Like the waves in the sea

Call me Aphrodite

As they bow down to me

 

Sunbather, moon chaser

Queen of empathy

I give myself two seconds to breathe

And go back to being a serene queen

 

I just needed two seconds to be me

 

 

Wowowowow the poet jumped OÜT. You got the other lyrics to the leaked songs? I’m savoring.

I think I will wait for the official release but from the opinions I've read here it looks like this album has the potential to be her magnum opus :WAP:

literally, its a tradition

 

The Grants could be her best song

Fingertips is.... Woah :monkey: that was incredibly sad and raw, and the orchestral background is giving very classic Disney ost. Luuvvvvvvsssss it. The Grants is a great starter, the melody is already stuck in my head lmaoooo. And Sweet is giving wait for life meets love song

 

Will try to hold myself back from the tagged songs nnnn but I'm reallllllyyyyyy loving what's out there so far

Can't believe this is really leaking lmao

 

I heard someone on twitter saying that The Grants sounds like Terrence Loves You??? How true is this because now that peaked my interest (mostly because I hate TLY)

Please love yourself

Idk why but I expected DBJAG 2.0 from The Grants and Beautiful 2.0 from Sweet and that was… not what we got :toofunny3:

 

Can someone who listened to the Peppers leak pls tell me if Angelina is actually the sample used?

FINGERTIPS IS THE BEST SONG I HAVE EVER HEARD

 

Sweet >>>>> Love Song

 

 

The Grants is really gorgeous!!

 

AHHHHHH her magnum opus! So dense and overwhelming in the best way possible.

Not politically charged, but Fingertips is very, very dark. Probably her saddest song to date. Sings about rape, abuse, suicide, her estranged mom, etc.

Love song is a really cute song, I love it, and Sweet is sort of the same vibe, but infinitely more developed, deeper and touching

whew! Love Song was something that grew on me a LOT over time (Cherry Blossom did the same) and i love how almost all of her albums have a piano ballad like that :heart2:
