i have them! i can reupload when i get to my computer later

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

does this fuel the theory that "k" is actually just josh kemp?
 
i've theorized that lana's & k's relationship took place in 2005, possibly mid-2005, considering the difference between young like me (introspective, yet positive & light-hearted) & from the end (features a lot of the melancholic tracks which were later included on sirens) also, for k, pt. 2 reveals that "k" is a musician, also... "the way your hair come down, it make you look older"
 
just something to think about... 

Just in case for whatever reason pics of the album go missing - I took these from an ebay listing for ~$9.47 USD + shipping

Josh Kemp as a bassist; recall these lyrics from “Joshy & I” — when you play the bass, I get this feeling….

All credit to @cartoon eyes for somehow identifying the album that was on lizzigrant.com in 2005 and sharing the info with me.
 

 
The Ordinary – Don't Let Me Die A Waiter

 
I grabbed a copy on eBay dirt cheap and was lowkey hoping to hear some Lana backing vocals or some lyrics that made me think  But no...
There is one interesting thing about it though. The bassist for the band was none other than... Josh Kemp! The World of Warcraft addict who inspired universally lauded Song of The Decade Video Games

 
This is interesting as it suggests his and Lana's relationship goes back further than originally thought.
Here's an article I found on the singer of the band who, surprisingly, is British and from Liverpool???

I ripped the CD for any interested in listening as there's no audio available online. The album is from 2004.
Listen at your own discretion the songs are pretty unremarkable but it's a cool insight into her very early musical inspirations nonetheless

Someone on PopJustice posted the album tracklist months ago, for those who are curious. This is before the addition of whatever the other re-recorded track is.

i cant express how hype i am im sorry era haters

her career is kinda over but at least we still have visions

every time she tweets about ai i want to report her account for harassment 

The new GP is the worst album i have ever heard in my life. Unlistenable pointless trash.

I hope Lana is still working on this, I was really excited to see how this was done considering how much she hyped it up in 2020. We can only hope she has recovered some of the poems and can re write from there.

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

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.
