Liz Taylor Blues liked a post in a topic by Stargirl in Billboard 2017 - Cover & Full Transcript of Interview
"Okay, so “crossing the threshold” was actually a reference to this little concept, or diagram, that’s called “The Hero’s Journey.” This writer, Joseph Campbell, came up with this little model. And it’s all about this character who has a lot of trouble at the beginning of the story, and then somewhere in the middle of the story, crosses the threshold to sort of face the monster, or the challenger, and in the end hopefully emerges triumphant once he’s beaten the bad guy or whatever. And I had been talking about that with my engineer, and I thought: I don’t usually use metaphors, but I loved the line “crossing the threshold,” and I wanted to bring it into that song I’d already started writing. So I changed those first few lines, so that woven in would be the idea of the hero’s journey. Because I really liked the idea of changing your own past. I think that’s what I wanted to do. I didn’t really know if I had control over doing that for a long time, and yea, I didn’t know what would be on the other side of me making a couple of really strong personal decisions and statement. Even just using my own voice to talk about stuff, that was different from “Love.” And I didn’t really know how the whole thing would go. But I liked so much that it would be my authentic voice at the time, so I just decided that to write what I was feeling was important enough to cross that threshold in the music. It’s kind of hard for me to explain, because there’s so many different levels to it: like, I’m making literary allusions, but I’m also really trying to make changes in my own life. It’s hard to articulate it eloquently!"

I agree 100% about there not being a payoff. The song literally doesn't even Have a climax. I think it would have been better as an interlude.

The Entirety of BPBP before the 2nd Verse >>>> IMF
"When I love him, get a feeling, something close to like a sugar rush" >>>>>> SB
I don't think I've ever praised BPBP on here before. Just thought I would for once.. carry on

Can we all agree that Heroin, Change and Get Free SHOULD belong at the end of the record?
I see some people saying that Heroin should be in the first half of the album, and I personally think the tracklist works really well, sonically and thematically.
We have Love, LFL, and 13 Beaches at the start, which are quite different but wouldn't really belong anywhere else.
Then we have the "fiery bops" which start with Cherry and end at IMF. Sonically, they're very contemporary and fun, upbeat songs.
Coachella is the bridge from bops to political songs, while having boppy production and somewhat political related lyrics.
Then we have political songs from GBA - BPBP
TNC is another fun love song, but sonically, it wouldn't work before Coachella, nor would it fit anywhere within Cherry - IMF, so it's placement is perfect, esp after BPBP with Stevie.
Then the last 3 tracks document Lana's growth and journey as a human being, so those are perfect.
Heroin is Lana hoping to change and describing what went wrong with her life.
Change is Lana anticipating this change.
Get Free is Lana manifesting her hopeful words into an actual change.

"Long live our reign, long live our love" is such a powerful ass statement. If Lana were our world president serving as an ambassador for humanity across the entire universe, that would be on our flag

I'm not sure whether Sean Ono Lennon sounds like Yoko Ono or a Muppet. I do know however he certainly doesn't sound like his father wtf was that low rate impression on TNC

On TNC he sounds eerily similar to his father though.
