i thought maybe BB, esp since the vid dropped yesterday..but yeah, sadly in my heart i know it'd always be arcadia

still holding out a little hope that shoplanadelrey.com will have some exclusive merch tomorrow

ok so there's gonna be a pop up tomorrow i assume? wonder if they'll have the ldrvillage merch or other stuff also are we assuming that this means shell be doing arcadia on colbert

well i lost/won bc none of this is cute to me except the candle. my bank account is stoked tho? idk i just feel these designs are so generic and flat seeming, there are artists doing such cute merch out there but this isn't it

The memes, the gifs, the pettiness, the drama…it’s all been par for the course in a pre-release thread and I would never have it any other way it’s called CULTURE baby

maybe tomorrow? but i do hope that there is a new merch drop for this album at some point– it's been so low key march-wise this album though that i don't know what to expect.

not necessarily!

ok you know how chuck posted that lana had a premonition about her child while writing the song BB? wonder if the "chicken's running barefoot" line is that! about chuck's lil baby having the nickname chicken & running around

I’ve only been listening to the previously unheard songs this week and I am super excited to listen to the album as a whole fri! I’ve abstained from listening to BB/WFWF/TB and can’t wait to see how I feel about all the songs once they’re in context of the actual track listing

yeah i kind of want a real lana-head to review this record cuz it's such an anomaly in many ways, what with the unreleaseds etc, wonder what promo info her label is sending out about it and if they'll mention that

lol ok you're right that's kinda brutal– but they mention so much that anything that comes after NFR would read as disappointing so i guess i was taking that into account in how i read the criticism too.

they don't score, but if they did it'd prob ~8 (they like it a lot but there were def songs/things they didn't like)

first review! https://www.stereogum.com/2164650/lana-del-rey-blue-banisters-album-review/reviews/premature-evaluation/

what a fun surprise! chuck's wearing one of the dresses lana wore during NFR-era festival shows right? lovely video, loved the scenes on the john deer

fun! BTD: carmen, national anthem, lolita Paradise: american, bel air UV (standard): old money, west coast UV (UO): cruel world, UV HM (standard): HM, salvatore HM (UO): HM, music to watch boys to LFL: love, get free NFR (standard): MAC, california, the greatest NFR (UO): HIAB, VB COCC (standard): COCC, DTWD COCC (krug cover): WD, WAH

hope this means she'll sing BB on colbert

yesss gimme that literal-ass painting the banisters blue mv

same I’m shocked it’s not a general fav? Has been one of my fav unreleased since I discovered it- such a classic, melancholy, bluesy song, sounds like it could’ve been released in the 70s

same! seriously any song of the record (other than beautiful sorry) would better than arcadia, esp something like thunder which is so much more lively. i love it! just generally love hearing lana use her voice in new/unexpected ways

for those of you who claimed a song based on title before you heard BB, did that song end up being what u expected? i claimed VFR and
