    Damn, Lana removing her IG and all made me remember just how interconnected the world is via social media, and how easy it really is to disappear and become anonymous and vague by going blank on socials. Like eventually, nobody outside of close friends etc. would know where you are, how you are, even who you are anymore.

    i'm wondering how it'll be different around bc of her absence from social media. they're not gonna look so good bullying a woman who already never really liked the fame, that or they're just gonna look plain stupid for changing things up to make themselves look sweet. 

    they have a lot of word hurdles to do.

    Text book as the opener is so perfect it's one bass guitar note three seconds of silence then one her best lines ever "I guess you could call it text book, I was looking for the father I wanted back" a one sentence answer to the daddy issues question hello????????? Hello??!?????

    Well well well... after lurking on LB for over 2 years I've finally decided to create an account lmao 
    I guess I've kinda been a part of this community for quite some time now already... but now I FINALLY get to be a part of the discussions (and the meltdowns)!!!

    Anyways, I'm as excited for BB as y'all are - and I'm SO glad Text Book is the opener since it's really become one of my favorite Lana songs over the past few months

    several songs! Arcadia felt the most serious & final to me about her leaving LA tho. LMLYLAW was more like “wanna get out of here and drink pink champagne” lol

    Chemtrails is so underrated and misunderstood, truly a sublime masterpiece. It's both gentle and dark and tells a beautiful story of her ultimate rejection of fame, which makes perfect sense given where we are today with this album's rollout and what she said Blue Banisters means to her. The story she's been telling since day one is so incredible and intricate and I really feel so lucky to be witnessing it in real time. In the future, at the end of the her career, people will be able to look at everything as a whole and see how amazing it all is, but we are the lucky ones who get to see her life's story unravel as it goes, and understand all the little moments of where she's at in the moment that Lana infuses into each chapter.

    It very much pleases me to see everyone finally coming around on Lust For Life, I honestly feel like that was probably our last truly *huge* era. Sis was EVERYWHERE.  We had collabs with modern and classic artists, interviews and magazine shoots left and right, a TOUR +lollapalooza. High budget videos. Radio play. Omfg it was like crack and we were snorting up every last GRAIN. And Thunder is truly the exact type of song that Get Free and LFL (title track) made me crave. That sultry 60s bop with background vocals. UGH. But I digress. Counting down the days until she knocks me on my ass with Black Bathing Suit

    NFR literally have 2 olds demos on it and songs that are 2-3 years old before it release and its her biggest album (so far) the drama

    I am so excited to see "what it's like now", too! I think the closing track "Sweet Carolina" will answer some questions especially because it was co-written with her father and sister. Another user pointed out the album starts out with "I was looking for the father I wanted back" and ends with a song written with her father. A full circle moment

    Listening to Text Book this morning and reading this thread and I have some thoughts. Just a note, this might be a COMPLETE REACH but 
    First, the lyrics "I guess this is really the end I've never felt jealous before this year but I'm jealous now" really hit me differently after her announcement last night. Maybe she's referencing the experience of watching her friends live a normal, fame-less life on Instagram. We know she wants privacy more than ever and is probably sick to death of the trolls commenting on her posts. Her thoughts, body, music are all open to be critiqued in the comments of her posts and I'm sure she has read some hateful things. I don't see this announcement as spur of the moment.  @lustforlife said BB is "the end of Lana Del Rey". Maybe de-activating her socials is just the first step down a road of seclusion and letting the music speak for itself. 
     
    Secondly, we know Text Book starts the album. Lana said BB is about "what it was like, what happened, and what it's like now".  The lyrics "and then there was the issue of her I didn't even like myself or love the life I had"  stuck out to me. I see these lyrics as young Lizzie speaking about not liking herself or the emotionally unstable home she lived in as a young girl / teen. In some ways, the creation of the Lana Del Rey persona saved her from that life (or maybe it felt this way to her in the beginning): it brought money,  instant adoration and freedom to build a new life for herself. Years later, though, the "Lana Del Rey" name has also brought a ton of baggage: think pieces, 0 freedom or privacy, twitter hate, etc. Maybe deactivating is just a way for her to begin tearing down this image of Lana Del Rey and only letting the music shine through. I could see her being very reclusive (like Fiona Apple) and popping out for interviews once every few years. 
     
    I don't think she will ever retire from music but this record is definitely a turning point for her. I'm excited to see the story she paints in BB and hoping it all comes together. 
    And maybe this is just me dwelling too much on the fact that I won't get a "Lana Del Rey posted" push notification for the foreseeable future
