something that upsets me about this album is that it's not about Cry Baby at all even tho she really tried to convince us that it is
 
looking back at the lyrics from Cry Baby (album) the songs had a very very specific storytelling and you could very much tell she was painting a picture, a child who is born into a toxic family, even the kidnapping part is very specific.
 
k-12 it's were the story starts cracking aka she got tired of CB and wanted to say smth more personal, wr still got very specific lyrics that serve the storyline (namedropping Kelly, Brandon etc) but also tracks like Show & Tell where u can definitely tell it had nothing to do with the storyline and it was smth from her personal pov that she tried to force into the album, making feel unchoesive.
 
but Portals is were she 100% dropped the whole thing, even when she personally described the songs she didn't even mention CB or the events that happen to her in this album, cause there is no storyline, like, she is reborn and then what?
everything is clearly Melanie related, you couldn't have CB (album) without the storyline but you can 100% have Portals without it being about CB like she claims, it's pretty obvious she wanted to get rid of the storyline but i'm sad she lost track of the story and basically dropped it without a proper ending

sweet, paris, texas & let the light in are the spring bitches of the album yup

Good morning to Sweet stans only.

Oh you know they’re already writing their lazy ass thesis’s on how lavender haze is about her actually dating [insert woman she’s interacted with]

girl teasing book 2 already while she hasn't even finished book 1  masochism coming 2024

Her post on IG stories 
 
the good news is PORTALS seems like the end of this concept/trilogy/saga, and that there can only be new beginnings from here 

Praying that Atlantic doesn’t approve her film budget so we can get more videos 

Hi all, so I'm new to Lanaboards and I just saw this thread, I'm so happy to see all of the support for meemaw, I've been a stan since Golden Age came out and I honestly think she's the next big voice in alternative music, maybe that's why she's been compared to Lana which I think is kind of ridiculous tbh. I mean Lana has been an inspiration for probably every pop/alt artist since 2012 so comparing ethel to her is basically the same as comparing Billie to Lana... If you listen to lyrics, production, aesthetic etc she's very different from lanita. 
 
On another note, I'm so happy and amazed about how quickly she became big like it's kind of insane, in December 2022 she had 90k on Insta and 500 000 monthly listeners on Spotify and now she's at 200k+ and 1.8 mil listeners. She's doing runway shows, magazine covers etc, I just know she's gonna be even bigger after all the festivals she's gonna do this summer. I'm also very interested to see how she's gonna play festivals. Her shows are so intimate, unique, she finds her strength by creating a safe bubble and connection with the public which is so different from festival shows so can't wait to see how she plays that. 
 
Also, she is the nicest human being frrrrr I've been a journalist for 2 years now and I've met and interviewed other artists and honestly she's one of the kindest I've met, I usually spend 20 min for an interview and we literally chatted for an hour she's very cool. I'm so happy we got to talk, I knew she would be big and I feel It's just the beginning
 
Anyway, stan Ethel, stream preacher's daughter and we are NOT ready for preacher's wife, I think It could be her breakout album.  
 
 

Thinking of the collapse if she released N&T and Garden as the deluxe tracks, like those two are some of the best from the album sessions. PLANTED A SEED AND RAN, HEY WHERE DID THE WATER GO? LAY ME ON A BED OF DEAD ROSES THO   (Very grateful we still got Sirens though)

when someone leaks stitches to go along with all this new mel material
