Happy 1st Birthday to my favourite album by my favourite artist wow what a blessing to say that, to have been alive and have it coincide with my life in such a synergistic way. I could go on and on and on about it but Ocean Blvd has been the most satisfying and rewarding gift as a Lipster. After so many years of stanning we are blessed by this radically raw peak of songwriting, a naked exposition of her soul, the most gorgeous sound palette, randomness & humour, peppered with so many treats and some of her best songs ever. Every time with Ocean Blvd still feels like the first time Oh Ocean Blvd......you amaze me

Coachella with Lana as a headliner will be such a big event. It would be very wise to drop a single shortly beforehand.

ok but imagine a twangy reworked Unidentified Flying Bill

I find it relieving how good this album is cause it allows me to comfortably admit that both COCC and Blue Banisters were both letdowns and I don’t really find myself going back to them, Blue Banisters less than Chemtrails, and still I deadass have bad associations with both eras cause of how Lana wanted to act during them like Blue Banisters really does just reek of her being butthurt over her image and I think the themes that she wanted to discuss on COCC and Blue Banisters are done MUCH better on Ocean Blvd. I think mainly due to her not fucking herself over with imaginary deadlines she wanted to hold herself accountable to But neway Ocean Blvd really was the next BIG lana album we got after NFR! and in many ways I consider this album the true successor to Norman and better than Norman YUP I remember BOZ describing it along the lines of a diary of a woman who’s lost in life, and I feel like that really describes how the album reads especially with how many different sounds there are and how truthfully blunt she is with us for the first time about her personal life. I think as a longterm fan this album is the most satisfying listen because of how deep and forreal she gets mixed with her fun “im so crazy 🤪” moments. This album is definitely up in my top 3 Lana albums with Honeymoon and Ultraviolence like she’s just that girl. Track by track: The Grants: DYKTTATUOB: Sweet: A&W: Judah Smith Interlude: Candy Necklace (ft. Jon Batiste) Jon Batiste Interlude: Kintsugi/Fingertips: Paris, Texas: GPSOTSOMFWHDSF: Let The Light In (ft. Father John Misty) Margaret (ft. Bleachers) Fishtail Peppers (ft. Tommy Genesis) Taco Truck x VB: Whew that was a lot of writing and most of it is probably worded poorly but idc lmao

Time really fucking flies! Happy 1st Anniversary to dear and THE amazing album Did You know That There's A Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd!!!!! One of the greats for sure, a very complex, huge and mountain moving album!

.

Happy bday to her best album <3 OB has it all & further solidifies her as one of the greatest songwriters

Not ya’ll showing up to a queens birthday party and talking shit about her… Anyways, happy birthday to Lana’s greatest album that has hits such as The Grants, Ocean Blvd, Sweet, A&W, Candy Necklace, Kintsugi, Grandfather, Let The Light In, and Peppers

Oh wow it's been a year? Her most impactful, heartfelt album <3 Singular in its ability to so gently explore the topics of family and life around it Thank you for writing The Grants, title track, and Fingertips because it's been guiding me through emotionally tough times.

Happy Ocean Blvd day

Happy birthday to a top 3 Lana album This album got me through such an exciting year, and it’s still one of my favorites to go though!

Just gave tunnel another listen on a sunny afternoon in my room with a glass of wine and incense burning Truly such a magical album, her vocals and lyricism on this one are as beautiful as ever. Perfect delivery, gorgeous visuals/vinyl variants and the whole record was cohesive while covering her different sounds. Will always love this one to death

a deluxe to celebrate this bday would go well, just saying!

And to think, not too long ago, none of us knew that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd.

I hope she brings back doin time on the set list, would be perfect with summer festivals

i remember where i was when i first listened to it happy birthday to one of lana's best albums

A very likely scenario is that her reworking an unreleased song from NFR - OB era for Lasso. Then the demo of it leaks and everyone hates the released version.

Happy birthday to OB My second fave from her… The healing album I didn’t know I needed. There are so many wonderful songs on it, including the title track. I never tire of this album.

oh shittt its the year anniversary already? im gonna make a long post talking about my thoughts on each track later tomorrow after I sleep cause I love this record so much truly top 3 moment for sure I think its her most satisfying listen as a long term fan

~it comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb~ 👀💋🫀🧊

If VG was arranged exactly the same way, but on acoustic guitar instead of harp/orchestra, it would definitely be country.

Very true. Also A&W was easily the best track released last year.

I will NEVER get over this album not winning album of the year - not because I’m a Grammy purist but because the sheer content, artistry, instrumentals, visuals, lyrics, delivery, compositions, etc etc were truly unmatched. Lana outdid herself with this album and tbh it’s tied with UV for my favorite album. Just when you think she can’t top herself she really sneaks up on you and creates something so incredible that continues to age like a fine wine. Happy birthday Tunnel

I interpreted it as it doesn’t exist. But like, why even make a listing for it? “Wasn’t mean to go live” so like you’re just playing pretend in your shop? Fantasizing?? lmfao the thought has me cackling, but also annoyed

Happy Judah Smith Interlude day everybody

Happy Birthday to our Queen!!! Ocean we love you so much!!!

you know what, lana's never done an illustration as cover art. So why not. although this concept with neil crueg = magic

I’m betting that she’ll definitely perform one or two AKA tracks, 2 or 3 unreleased, one or two new upcoming tracks, LTLI, YTH, and at least two collabs with guests.

Maybe she’ll perform a new song but won’t get released until June?

🎻🥀⛓️

oh wow, a year already? i still remember using a japanese VPN to watch candy necklace on youtube a day before release since it hadn't leaked with the rest of the album that week truly a time

“It’s a beautiful life… remember that too for me…” got to examine this woman’s 38 years of living and also the album that birthed the song… ocean blvd i love you Celebrating this baby’s first anniversary right on the day im confirmed as a Catholic..!

this IS her best album and i SAID WHAT I SAID

I’m guessing this is them doing damage control because it sounds like they are trying to backtrack lmao It is bizarre that they would literally name a specific photographer if it wasn’t real lmao

wait so is it real and they released it for pre order early or is it not real at all?

Received a refund too

Little miss lil shawty the baddest yeah yeah and she got her ways kinda ate I can’t lie

im bored, when will we get the tracklist?

i remember this day so vividly. listening to kintsugi and fingertips back to back for the first time was truly an experience. happy birthday ocean blvd

taco truck x vb sent us into a frenzy on this day

One year later and the lyric is still I’m Gonna Take Mind Of You With Me at the start of The Grants

Happy first birthday Ocean Blvd... I can very easily say this is my favourite album by Lana. It's funny but something genuinely shifted when I saw her sing the title track live

.

i think so, she performs unreleased songs from time to time and it never counts as a release

AG literally posted this on TikTok lol I don’t think this is a leak

one of her best.

Happy Birthday to one of the all time great records. I think that like BTD, it's legacy is only going to grow and become stronger.

She called video games and ride country so who knows what country really is for Lana

The standard cover reminds me of 2 paintings, one is "la Liberté guidant le peuple" by Delacroix, which also inspired the sculpture for Miss Liberty, if I remember right. Somehow both artworks were related. So standard and alternate cover really form a unit. Besides I recognize a Napoleon painting. And the vinyl colors are US/French national flag colors combined with Black. Lots of messages, lol. It's like mixing Miss Liberty with Botticelli's Venus. Love it. (I feel like she's copying me, lol. I am a photographer and have done a lot of these Black people as ancient paintings photo shoots. 😂)
