Also I would love to take a moment & write a few thoughts about every song on this album down. Text Book : In my opinion this is one of her best songs. It's a stunning opener for this album & the production is phenomal. Love the lyrics & the fucking outro is so gorgeous, it literally makes me transcend everytime Blue Banisters: The title track has grew ALOT on me. I love it now, it's so beautiful. Love the storytelling. My favourite aspect about this song is the instrumental & the outro. It puts me in a trance Arcadia : There were times where I was a bit bored of it but in the last few weeks it started to hit. Such a beautiful beautiful song. The strings & the trumpets Interlude - The Trio: I don't mind it on the album bc it slaps actually Black Bathing Suit: 11/10. My favourite song from this album. The chaos, the lyrics her VOCALS, the intro, the drums, the tempo changes she snapped with this song so hard. Song of the year for a reason!! If You Lie Down With Me: It aged so beautifully & is definetly one of my faves. I said it already but I say it again, I want this song to be my wedding song the last chorus is everything, obsessed with it. The outro is a highlight !!! Beautiful: More of an unpopular opinion but I love this song a lot. I love the message & I'm still obsessed with the raindrop piano Violets For Roses: Another one of my faves. I can relate to it alot but somehow it makes me feel good & it's giving me major self love vibes which I needed. It sounds beautiful & classic Lana & the pre chorus is truly phenomal Dealer: This song slaps Might be my favourite Lana collab along with Stargirl!! I'm a fan of the Arctic Monkeys & enjoy some work from Miles Kane & The Last Shadow Puppets & I get a simliar vibe to them from Dealer. Love Miles vocal performance but Lana is clearly the highlight on this song. Her fucking vocals are everything what I ever wanted to hear from her & more. The outro is sexy. Also this song hits when you feel mad, tired or annoyed Thunder: In my opinion this is a classic. It's such a beautiful song , one of my favourites songs from her. The build up is gorgeous, the strings were such a great addition. Her vocals are everything in the second part of the song. Love the drums & the little e-guitar riffs Sometimes I listen to the demo which is still so good. But she truly made Thunder even better Wildflower Wildfire: This should be considered as another classic. I live for her vocal performance on this song. Lyrically it's one of her best for me. The melody is everything & then the explosion of the song towards the end Nectar Of The Gods: I'm so happy it found it's home finally. It's only Lana & an acoustic guitar but this song has something special about it. Within the album somehow I appreciate Nectar even more & I already build a strong connection with it over the years Living Legend: I have to admit that I sometimes skip it when I don't feel good bc this song hits me so much , it's quite an intense listening for me. My favourite part is the bridge & the why why part , sometimes I start to cry so hard during the why why part I still haven't figured out after all those years why it hit me so much but it does Cherry Blossom: I don't even know why but very recently I'm obsessed with CB. Such a beautiful song. Everytime I listen to it I wish someone would hold me & sing this song to me Sweet Carolina: This is still such a sweet song. Sounds almost like a lullaby. I have to admit that I started to listen to this song before I go to bed. It's so sweet & calming. Rob is so good at playing piano. It's also the perfect closer for this album -

Ok since this album is out now for a few a months I want to share some general thoughts. It aged beautifully for me & it has become one of my favourites albums. Maybe my favourite album of hers along with Honeymoon Also Honeymoon , Blue Banisters, Ultraviolence & Chemtrails is my holy quartet I can see why the flow might be not perfect for everyone. Thunder would have been a more nicely sonically after VfR & Nectar was sonically a choice after WFWF but I don't mind it actually. I got used to Dealer after VfR (it's somehow iconic when the drums kick in after VfR) & in Nectar she starts with " What cruel world is this " after she realized how cruel the world is in WFWF. So I can see why Nectar comes after WFWF. Also the beats remind me of some lasers & sth burning & then the oooh intro of Nectar paints a picture in my head of a landscape that got burned & destroyed, like you sit in some ruins, with your head in the hands contemplating about this "cruel " world. I don't know if it makes sense but this is how it is in my head lol. -
