  1. For like over half a year I thought in Heroin she was saying "grandma bought me the ribbons in my hair" like she was reminiscent about being young and innocent when her grandma got her ribbons. The realization 8 months later when genius called me a dumb bitch cause the lyrics were actually "grabbed me by the ribbons in my hair" :deadbanana:

    Well basically I think some creepy shit probably happened to her when she was a kid/teenager. It feels very groom-y. 

    I think a lot of people actually speculate that. When she was at the boarding school or whatever when she was a teenager didn't she get close with a teacher? They introduced her to Nirvana and Guns N Roses or something. I remember reading someone saying somewhere that she said that in a interview, but said the teacher was a woman. But when people looked into it no female teacher had that last name but they did find a male teacher with the same last name who was on the younger side or something :tsk: And apparently the way she spoke of them was a lil too fond so you know :awk:

    Spoiler

    I may have gotten wrong information or misread it so take it with a grain a salt. Its just speculation anyway so :hoe:

    Taste!!!! Sad Girl is also my favourite song from UV & still my favourite song she’s officially released so far. Religion is also in my top 3 from HM. Underrated masterpieces xx

    Yes!! Ugh legends only :hooker: I guess objectively speaking West Coast, SoC, Brooklyn Baby are some of the best songs off UV but something about Sad Girl is just much more special than them in a way, to me anyway. Same with Religion but I have to say some of the other songs off HM are at the same level such as the TBD. As you said they really are underrated masterpieces.

    sad girl stans uniting i see :nails: religion is great. i didn't know people hated it? i feel it's one of the stronger songs on the album. then again, i do prefer the second half of honeymoon over the first half (minus don't let me be misunderstood). not to say i don't enjoy the first half, but i really like the darker undertones that start with the burnt norton interlude

    Sad Girl getting the recognition shes always deserved :nails: Honestly I like the second half a lil better than the first half of HM too. Honeymoon (the track), TLY, and Art Deco are some of my favorites off HM but I feel like the second half is better collectively and has amazing songs like Religion, Salvatore, TBD, etc.


  4. Sad Girl was my favorite UV song when I first listened to UV and still is my favorite UV song now. Its just so sexy yet melancholy and the production is just so good. And the last part of the bridge when she sings "hes got the fire and he walks with it hes got the fire and he talks with it" for the last time is just so chilling how it goes quiet with just the guitar and her voice :legend:Religion is the same way for me aswell from Honeymoon. Another amazing song that people tend to dislike over other songs on the album. To me though they're the best songs from each album.


  5. This was just so stunning :defeated: The sonics kinda reminded me of those old outer space 90s (80s?) educational documentaries on VHS tapes they'd show at elementary school and it just felt so nostalgic and warm. The poems were so raw and the storytelling was just so stellar, she was so vulnerable. My favorites were LA Who Am I To Love You, Sportscruiser, Tessa DiPietro, and the last three poems (such an amazing way to wrap up the album) I honestly thought this was gonna be just a cute project that I'd only play it once (some clown shit really :flop: ). Like I really didn't expect to be hit in the back of the head with a bat so hard :deadbanana:


  6. Oh I see and I get that too. Maybe you can make an NFR album on iTunes with different versions of the songs. So that would be songs like the alt. version of FIILY and HTD and make it maybe a demo or alt. album with the alt. cover? That way you can enjoy the song better. Could even use the LFA from Instagram. I put that into a demo album for NFR just bc the lyrics were different in that

     

    Omg wait theres a Fuck it I Love you alt? Like I already adore FIILY but I would love to hear another version. Sorry I'm out of the loop, I dipped from the board once the leaks first came out like a week into August since I wanted my first listen not to be spoiled.


  7. Didn’t everyone complain about it being “another piano ballad” at the Apple thing though??? I don’t get it it’s one way someone says it should’ve been the other, then it’s opposite and people still don’t like it. I just don’t understand. I get you have your opinions and that’s fair but I just don’t get the point of why people flip flop so much

     

    Maybe other people complained about it but I honestly love piano ballads haha. If I remember everyone complained about the first snippet of cinnamon girl because they found it boring while I was bopping to it. I personally think that a stripped back version would've made the song better but in time I think I'll like the official release. It just took me by surprise that they took another direction with the song LOL.


  8. Here are my thoughts

     

    Norman Fucking Rockwell: shes cute

    MAC: Literally still one of the best songs on the album I love it

    Venice Bitch: I love Venice so fucking much its still like the best on the album

    Fuck it, i love you: Its a really cute song I really like it

    Doin' Time: It doesn't fit honestly but like whatever

    Love Song: I'm really sad because it disappointed me the most, I found everything past the snippet boring

    Cinnamon Girl: I think its really good the very end gives some BtD vibes honestly

    How to Disappear: Literally the worst production choice for the song ever LOL. Its an emotional song, it should've been stripped down and raw like the apple performance. Literally so bad

    California: I honestly didn't care for it at all, whenever I hear the the pre-chorus I keep catching myself expecting her to start singing fuck it i love you 

    The Next Best American Record: She should've kept the original  :creep:

    The greatest: I honestly found the song boring when it first came out and I still feel that way oof

    Bartender: My absolute favorite song from the album that we hadn't heard yet, its so fucking good I literally creamed

    Happiness Is A Butterfly: Not the biggest fan but I love the second half of the song, mostly the ahhh part before the 'happiness is a butterfly' part

    hope is a dangerous: I think it could've been a good closer if I liked the album more but I wasn't feeling it by the time I came to end of the album

     

    I wasn't really feeling this album but I bet it'll grow on me eventually like any other album, I'm just disappointed on my initial listen. Maybe I was expecting too much? idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I really hope the rest of you guys liked the album a lot more than I did cause it was like a year long wait LOL
