This. I am so happy we have an official vision (so yeah she also lowkey agrees that it should not be on 1 version of the album) without that horrid interlude. The people who like it are just pretentious.

I don't even like the interlude, I just choose to experience the album that way, people can do whatever they want with the tracklist. I guess that if she released the album without that interlude on streaming I would listen to that version.

i already forgot the interludes exist tbh  i deleted both of them and it's such a pleasant experience

 

this might be her best album, it keeps hitting me more and more everyday

Hot take: I prefer the Jon Batiste interlude over Candy Necklace 

[TrueBlood]

I agree that the interludes are part of the album "experience", but deleting them made me truly realize how this is her second best album ever.

[ScorpiosGroove]

i’m all for deleting the Judas **** Interlude cause it’s mostly nonsense and too long (and should’ve just been an instrumental with some talking at the end) but the Jon Interlude is pure excellence  

 

her great gig in the sky teas, we need 8 of those but with more actual singing 

[duybeeGAshantiGA]

The album is perfect this way, 1 interlude being the Jon Batiste is a perfect amount. Now it can finally be on par with NFR as her best albums. Im not sure which one is better yet

That is a hot take...but I really like it as well. Hope she continues to work with him because I'd love for her to explore this sound even more.

 

Anyway, let me pre-order the boob cover along with the other online store variant. This woman will stay robbing us with her art

Idk, I feel like CN is a) too repetitive and b) strangely reminds me Body Electric for some reason

The repetition and Jon's voice echoing at the end adds to the eerieness for me. I don't think any other track does that for me except the Judah Smith interlude so I get why it's right before this track. I'm curious to see what she planned for its music video.

Peppers video when?

[Ice Cream Skies]

Yeah, I can sit through the interludes because I’m not a little *****.

None, the only other video will be for Margaret and it was shot on the iphone by her while Lana and Jack were working in the studio.

The pastor interlude wasn't deleted from the b00b vinyl  he's still listed on the inner sleeve and the UK store has it in the tracklist, one of the interns must've just made a typo

Where’s the inner sleeve? I would like to see it

 

And idk anything about this Judah person, but I like that the production flows right into Candy Necklace. That almost fast paced playing of the piano is used in Candy Necklace and that moment where it starts to get really eerie and speeds up like the pivotal moment in a suspenseful thriller >>>

[VeniceBeach]

The album is rising in streams 2 days in a row 

[ontherocks]

Obvious post release songs to push

 

Peppers

Paris, Texas

Let The Light In

 

C'mon Universal, it can not be THAT hard

[CottageHore]

Being pretty is knowing that deleting the Judah Smith Interlude but keeping the John Batiste Interlude is the best way to experience this album

Still the biggest female debut week WW in 2023

Our universally successful queen. Not everybody has THAT 

[stjosephprey4us]

The Interludes are not that bad, you gays are kind of being annoying. I don’t go out of my way to listen to either of them, but when I play the whole album I don’t skip them bc that is the way Lana meant for the album to be played and they make sense in the melodic narrative. Judah Smith (if you ignore the religious bs, which tbh why would you even have to? Religion has always been an element of Lana’s discography) just reminds me of the Violet Bent Backwards atmospheric speaking tracks, and Jon Batiste’s is actually genuinely pleasant to hear (I just wish there was more of Lana singing and less laughing/talking)

Miley numbers are tragic

[TYMPS]

the tea is lana put the interludes on the album for a reason, but hey

 

maybe if everyone likes something, it's not that good 

[Big Bad Wolf]

Daily reminder that Kintsugi and Fingertips are the best songs on the album and are career highlights. 
 

Lately I’ve been listening to Fingertips more. But I really exhausted Kintsugi the past few weeks whew. Both are complete masterpieces.
