Atlantis

other than the obvious bartender melody resemblance at the beginning, i always felt like some of this song’s other melodies sounded familiar
i was listening to græ by moses sumney the other day and i finally realized that it is bystanders that reminds me of fingertips!
the part when he sings “gifted to see between astral planes, now you plead to be plain” sounds like “it wasn’t my idea the cocktail of things that twists neurons inside” 
 
i still feel like i’m completely missing another more “obvious” song that has this melody, it really reminds me of smth for some reason and i don’t think bystanders is it
did anyone have the same thought and perhaps it figured out?
 
btw if u don’t know the album pls listen to græ, u won’t regret it imo

Chemtrails scarred us for life

i heard that elusive singer-songwriter and coney island enthusiast lana rey del mar will be attending

so margaret is officially breaking up slowly of this era confirmed, the worst song from the album yet the most performed 

I'm tired of ranking Ocean Blvd because every day my list changes. 

She's a cute girl but it's just not on the same level, to me, as the other tracks
and it's also very Taylor-ish meets COCC

Wearing nothin' but the summer bruises on my knees 

i had no idea she even said anything 💀

IF YOU WANT SOME BASIC BITCH GO TO THE BEVERLY CENTRE AND FIND HER 
  

I have good intentions even if i'm one of the last ones

i really enjoy each song individually (with a few exceptions) and i like the concept and narrative of the album as a whole. even though it has different sounds and themes, it has a specific journey that makes sense (at least imo)
but tbh the only “issue” for me is that to actually manage to go through all these moods within like one hour i literally have to be in a psychotic vibe 
and that’s not healthy at all even tho it can kinda make me happy 
i just find myself listening to some songs of the album in a random order and that’s it 
 
and this is the order in which i like listening to it:
 
1. the grants 
2. ocean blvd 
3. a&w
4. judah smith interlude
5. sweet
6. candy necklace
7. jon batiste interlude
8. paris, texas 
9. fingertips 
10. kintsugi
11. grandfather
12. let the light in
13. margaret (skippable, could have been on blue banisters after cherry blossom)
14. fishtail 
15. peppers 
16. taco truck 
 
also imagine the serve if the jon batiste interlude was more polished and was merged into candy necklace as an outro…
