me opening spotify on midnight of friday the 22nd fully ready for my back to be blown out by none other than blue banisters 

black bathing suit = st tropez 
if you lie down with me = flipside / hey you
beautiful = how to disappear / honeymoon
violet for roses = sad girl / terrence loves you
sweet carolina = bartender / wayamaya
 

If she needed a break why couldn't she just log off for like seven months like I did. 

I still can't believe how solid this tracklist and album is looking in general. I love that she added some of her best unreleased songs. I love that she's adding a wildcard like Dealer. I love how weird/campy yet beautiful her lyrics are. I love the album cover. I love so many things about this album so far and it hasn't even dropped yet. I'm so excited!

...manifesting cute hawaiian t-shirts merch (imagine baby tee fit!) 

ohmygod i'm just gonna say it but what the HELL are we gonna do on here for 16 days and a midnite 

That was me and it was literally the best moment of my entire life. I still haven’t recovered. I didn’t want to post about it here bc I was embarrassed about how I look, but since it’s here… Lana is seriously the best. 

Better be.
I really can't imagine having The Trio fade into a piano ballad.

we only know that Thunder was reworked so far

Literally within 5 minutes of me finally getting my cell service activated and working on my new phone, Lana reactivates.. my power xx
i was also just about to go take a nap but not anymore LOL I’m wide awake now waiting to see if she’ll post anything

It’s going to get harder with each record to rank them because none of them are bad (yes, even LFL and COCC). Norman remains my absolute fave, HM or UV in second (can’t decide), but BB sure will have more diversity and oomph than COCC for sure, a bit more passion. 

Please stream COCC and Honeymoon twice because the numbers of they are tragic

For @Whore of Tropico's idea to do a weekly streaming party of each Lana album, counting down to the release of Blue Banisters on Oct 22nd!

hey yall
 
i've been just as intrigued as most of u and i decided to do a quick lenormand reading for this situation and i want to share it with u all :
 
1. Why is Lana deactivating her socials?
 
Letter+Cloud+Mountain+Scythe  - Anchor+Tree+Star
 

 
 
So starting with letter (communication) and clouds (no clarity) it seems that her message came across as confusing or unclear on the specific underlying issue. Clouds cover the clear sky and if they are covering the letter then indeed she is covering some stuff. There are lots of misunderstandings about the why of the deactivation. The mountain is a blockage/stop and could lead to the silence in communication (letter+mountain) so these first cards kind of show the general situation. After the stop (mountain) there is the actual cut off (scythe). So: To be completely stuck in a problematic, confused situation. There is a possible secret no one talks about.To sum things up (for someone else); to state clearly what's what. To inform someone about a conclusion one has made / to be informed about a final result. 
 
The why: Ancor+Tree+Star - especially because the scythe continues with the anchor, she is ending the status quo; cutting off one's fetters; to abruptly untangle herself from restraints (anchor). This seems like a well-deserved or self-caused hold-up/break from boring routine or from something that was stopping her from doing what she wanted to grow (tree) related to her celebrity status (star,  the last). But anchor+tree could also mean focusing on health or just taking a break in nature to feel a very strong sentiment of safety and stability. Routines (or pauses) dictated by one's nature (e.g. sleeping cycle). Stopping, pausing, helps to replenish one's energy reserves. The tree and star together are interesting because its exactly the contradiction: pragmatical, materialistic world view, and an esoteric, spiritual one. She might want to find a balance between health/body and spirit.
 
In short: I think there is something that did not allow her to grow as much as she wanted in a specific direction (mountain), so she cut if off (scythe), because it was weighing her down (anchor) and she could not grow (tree) in the direction she wants to as a star but also the star is about hopes so she might have other dreams and wishes. Also just really taking a break. I believe she communicated with us in a confusing way (letter+clouds) and we cant see everything about it but i really dont think this is a bad situation. With the tree, I think she wants to be a down to earth person and live more modest and peacefully
 
X

I’m sure public figure accounts with millions of followers are subject to other terms and services ruling.

i understand that it’s sad that she’s “leaving” socials as it’s a way we connect with her but why r people punching the air so hard? she’s a grown woman, let her live out her troubled poet phase x
 
(plus she’ll come back with some cryptic post in a few months)

I don’t love how her comments are filled with these “stans” that write such backhanded things like “what is this bestie” or “I thought you were deactivating” - stuff like they know her personally and they have the authority to talk down to her or make light of some of her more personal posts - I would want to deactivate all my accounts too

For those asking "how are we going to get updates now???!!"
The way we use to get updates 20 years ago before social media existed - by the artist's official website. Just go to Lana's official website and see if they added updates in there. https://www.lanadelrey.com/homepage/
No biggie.
Also, some of you are getting too hysterical over this. She's not dead nor is she retiring. She's just deactivating and living her life. Believe it or not, social media didn't always exists. Back in the 90's when I was a kid, we got updates straight from the radio, VH1 and MTV.
Lorde and Fiona Apple aren't on social media, and look how well they get their music out there. Nothing to be so worried about.

her sad girl era revisited

I love her so much. This takes me back to OG days when we barely knew anything about her.. if she wants that privacy & sense of safety again, she more-than deserves it. Can't believe people are crying over this lol... I mean first of all, there's no doubt in my mind she'll return to social media in some form within the next year. Secondly, she's a person like the rest of us - we'll be fine without her random selfies and updates??? She made it clear that she's not quitting her career. There is still poetry and music to come. Just no social media presence for now, which is fine... it's about the art anyway - which I think is her point / some of the reasoning behind her decision. I don't blame her at all & honestly I'm surprised she didn't do this sooner.
