We did just get an album a month and a half ago  
 
I wish she would have just not announced the album the day after Chemtrails came out because we’re all on the edge of our seat when we should be content. She should have announced Blue Banisters in June or July (since that’s probably when we’ll get the single) and gone from there

the way i literally forgot it was a month ago and not like 3 years ago 

I've been waiting for more of this bitch. Lana Bond. where is she. 
 
 
 

she said June 1st? I'm waiting til June 1st. benefit of the doubt. cmon mama  it's also just a bit soon. maybe like mid may

blue banisters in 3 days

so…what was the point of “announcing” blue banisters??

Lana when it's June 1st and we ask her where's the album:

Even if it gets delayed like Chemtrails it's not like she's going to stay silent for a year. We got in August (I think) the bts video of the chemtrails MV and that a song was coming before that, then in October we got LMLYLAW and then in december the preorder and MV announcement. I expect something (at least an announcement or snippet) sometime in May/June.

I hate this era already
 

watching other fanbases get music

2 members browsing this thread and one of them is me... rip 

The only big reuses was the melodies on WAH, and DBJAG being part of Bird World. 

even if the rumors are true that NAWWAL was for NFR, LMLYLAW was for UV, and knowing Yosemite was for LFL, I don’t feel like the album was over recycled. They’re good melodies and I’m glad they found a place
 
I’m sure working with Zach inspired her and got some really good revenge songs out of her 
 

I would just like even 10 seconds of blue banisters, with a release date announcement (like when she randomly posted “two end of summer singles out next week” and then posted MAC. Iconic.)

people are allowed to not like the album as much as others, I could say the same about LFL because it’s my fave and everyone hates it 

my problem is

1: the wait soured the whole era for me. Having snippets of almost every song for over a year was overkill (which I get is my own fault for listening to them)
2: I felt like the songs didn’t live up to their potential. MAC/VB/DT I loved the second I heard the snippet and the full songs made me love them more. Love Song, Cinnamon Girl, and Happiness (and even a little bit of title track) just didn’t go in a way I thought it would, and the full songs disappointed me
 
(The party dress I’m a mess line in LS still irks me to this day. The melody is cute but the lyrics feel so overdone. And the fact that we basically had all of CG in 18 and the last minute is such a tease because the ending instrumentals outdo the song itself)
 
I like the album more as joint songs (MAC/VB, CG/HTD, FIILY/TG, HIAB/Bartender) but as a whole it’s my least favorite collection of songs. The flow is super weird (LS following DT is a super weird choice as well as TNBAR in between California and TG)
 
edit: not to mention the demo of BAR fits more thematically than the version she put out (‘you did it all for fame, tell me how life treats you now’ fits the theme of self inflated ego artist more than ‘I’m taking off my bathing suit’)
 
edit again: like personally, HIAB hurt me SO BAD. I loved each and every snippet she posted and have never been so hyped for a Lana song, and then the full song came out and it is the most discombobulated song she’s ever released. It sounds like 3 very different songs shoved together in one. It doesn’t flow and they don’t fit with eachother 
 
Again; this is all my own personal opinion and we can all like and not like songs 

@ItsaWhale89 mentioned the NFR livestream she did and I watched it and I have THOUGHTS. So I’m spilling them here 
(I took notes and I’m just copying and pasting them and a little edit)
———————————————-
The background vocals in the chorus 
Redeeming her high notes

Jack “do you remember how the song (NFR) started? The old version :)”
Lana: “Mm. No.”
Jack “you don’t? :(“
Queen of knowing none of her lyrics!!
*Jack continues to sing the original version while Lana laughs and repeats him trying to remember*

She is so over sing the chorus by this point
 
*Jack continues to describe MORE of the song because he remembers the whole thing while she can’t remember any of it*
Lana: “yeah. That was cool.”

I LOVE hearing DBJAG demo. Still top 3 for me
 
Omg she has to sing the chorus AGAIN
 
I love how you literally watch her create the old song again, she gets SUPER good when she stops caring and just freestyles (that “you’re back in the bar again, hanging OUT with you stupid friends” sounds better than the whole first half of the livestream 
 
“They said the service is looking gewd” like! She’s incredible. 
 
L: “Fuck.” 
Two seconds later “thank you Jack you’re the shit”
Jack: “oh you don’t wanna sing more?:(“
Lana: “no” starts laughing at that outrageous assumption 
“I’m happy it’s (NFR) not a big secret anymore” Jack is over the fans harassing him, too. 

Lana: “do you remember the first song we did?”
Jack: “of course” silence. 
(Coming from the man who knew 95% of Bird World. He was waiting for her to say what it was because it probably wasn’t Love Song. It was probably LA who am I or some other random outtake)

I love that they call NFR Normie 
 
Mentions the triple video MONTHS before release 
 
WHERE IS THE BEACH INTERVIEW LANA

Oooh she described the beach interview as “interesting” while sounding a little annoyed
 
She described Love Song as “stark” and is “the kind of song you have to have a video for” 
 
Jack: “do you have a video?”
Lana: “I do. I’d like to paint it” add that to the thread of LIES

She realizes CG is the “sauciest”
 
The being “fucked up in Boston” time period inspired a lot of HTD and CG lyrics (and probably some of the poetry (sugarfish at the top of my head))
 
Jack: “Lana. What’s your favorite song”
Lana: *long pause while glaring* “Norman 
Jack: “Why”
Lana: *long pause* “I love ur chords”
 
She says Hope is eerie and weird to put out when you don’t know what your next record is going to sound like and you have no idea what your next step in life is. 
So when she said she wanted to surprise drop a new album in 12-13 months after NFR, she was just being hopeful
 
Lana thought Norman could have been completed when doing Love Song and Hope (which apparently were also the first two songs so that would have been a super short album)
 
L: “If they still made albums that were still A side and B side, we would have so many joint gems” YES!! I always say she would do best releasing dual singles

“Nobody is spilling shit Allison, fuck off” has me rolling
 
L: “Do you have any pets? No I do not. I was going to get a family of 2 German Shepard”
J: “don’t lie.”
L: *nervous laugher* “okay it was 4”
Jack is ROASTING Lana so hard omg
 
Now she has 2 cats and chickens love the growth 
 
L: “Chuck, what was our first show? When we went ice skating? In the arena?”
C: *confused look*
L: “shania Twain!” Ugh yes Stan Queen shania 

Love how Chuck seems just as clueless about things as Lana
 
Why the secrecy??? I wanna know what someone at Fish left behind that got them banned from lack placid 
 
“Do a video figure skating” I blame that person for her broken arm 
 
C+J: “I was obsessed with shania” “who wasn’t?”
Laura: “me.” Well fuck you bitch 
 
Mentions the three part video AGAIN
“Out in October around all of our shows” LIE
 
L: “Make sure I sign off before I say something FUUUCKED UP” 

*disconnects*
 
L: “I Fucking hate my fans” (I’m assuming)
