YASSSS king

She needed to get Chemtrails and Blue Banisters out of her system. I'm glad that she did, because I really do love those records, but I'm SO excited for what's to come.

Well said! Thank you

Swan Song If I had to guess, you often find yourself perched in a small corner of your mind, turning over ideas simply for the sake of it. You might be prone to existential musings and have a reoccurring mental motif of “What if?” You’re likely a very fair individual, giving many belief systems and people an objective assessment before dismissing or accepting them. You might be inclined to think before acting, sometimes at a cost, but your thoughtful nature defines and supplements not only yourself but those around you. Song Suggestions: Ladder Song by Bright Eyes, Secret Garden by Bruce Springsteen, Dawn Chorus by Thom Yorke

LMAO the drop in streams today.

Lana NEVER disappoints with her album openers. I am not worried in the slightest about The Grants.

Today is a wonderful day for Lana to drop the tracklist

That's fair. I think The Grants will be fantastic and completely unlike Sweet Carolina/Blue Banisters

I love your posts. You always back up your thoughts and beliefs regarding aesthetic craft on this forum with rationality, logic, and fairness. I was more so talking about a general consensus that because Lana is writing music about her family or her personal history, that the music is immediately dismissed or seen as not good because someone cannot relate to it. I can't "relate" to living in a trailer park or any of its lyrical themes outside of Oh Say Can You See, yet AKA is one of my all-time favorite records. I understand where you were coming from completely and do agree with you.

I bought the Amazon exclusive and the standard

Agree with you all counts, but I honestly thought they were production credits at first.

Seriously. It's ridiculous. Not every piece of music needs to be "relatable," or whatever

Complaining about Lana making music about her family history is ridiculous (TO ME! I AM NOT ATTACKING ANYONE. I can't believe I have to even preface with this with how toxic the boards have been over the past few days) because how many times can we really listen to songs about being in love with a bad boy or one of her exes. This is Lana branching out to new subject matters and being extremely vulnerable in her music. I personally love it.

Nope, just that one singular user.

Based on production credits, I think that the only one that will be strictly piano is the track with her and Drew. (Or Jack and Drew, I haven't looked at the credits in a bit lol). Even then, I think we'll still get an orchestra on it

Suffer!

If "AW&J" stands for American Whore & Jack, then I think A&W might be the Bleachers track

The Blue Banisters title track really triggered some people, huh

but then we got a 13 minute magnum opus titled "Sweet," so we raged for two seconds and made up

Exactly exactly

Title tracks for me after some time with Ocean: 1. Chemtrails Over the Country Club 2. Ocean Blvd 3. Honeymoon 4. Born to Die 5. Blue Banisters 6. Ultraviolence 7. Norman Fucking Rockwell 8. Lust for Life

Yes, Bartender is my favorite song on NFR, and I love both versions of How to Disappear

idk why or if there's even any correlation, but this song made me really like Watercolor Eyes

I probably won't listen to the Pastor interlude much, but I'm also not mad about it either. It could be satirical or fit what BoZ described as the album's theme of a girl searching for guidance

Omg...listening to Swan Song right after Ocean Blvd...W magazine interview............ I GET IT
