    My replacement CDs arrived today, only one was cracked this time :yesnod: I think I’ll just ask for a refund, and use the funds to purchase some jewel case covers. 
     

    I completely forgot to cancel the green vinyl from Drowned World Records (still salty about them not sending a cancellation/notice email, and only having refund info available on the actual listing), so I have a second copy on the way.
     

    Lmk if you’re looking for the green vinyl, I’ll probably sell the first copy with slight corner damage 🖤 Retail plus ship, ofc.

    Finding it hard to listen to anything else right now 🖤 Idk how I’d see Ocean Blvd if I wasn’t navigating the recent loss of my grandma, deep-rooted issues with my mother, and how the two are entwined, along with a couple other sensitive topics explored on the record. But I think it would still connect, perhaps differently but certainly as deep, because this album is pulling up so many other emotions and memories, all while giving heavy/very real insight to Lana’s life and mind. It’s just incredible, no words.
     

    Kintsugi and Fingertips alone cleared the high expectations set by the title track, A&W, and The Grants. Sweet (unexpected fav!), Candy Necklace, Paris, LTLI, Peppers, and TT x VB are also very strong/compelling album tracks. Even the two songs I didn’t care for have grown on me a bit. Especially the “when you’re old your old” verse in Margaret. It’s hard to rank these songs, and the record itself, among her work, but I know they will stand the test of time :wub:

    There's a guy on YT who does individual song reactions for Lana, Forwhateverreason is the name of the channel, and it seems it has completely disappeared out of the blue. Does anyone know what happened? 

    Oh shit, you’re right. Idk what’s going on but I hope everything is alright, he’s def one of the best new reactions channels when it comes to Lana :ohno:

    My picture disc arrived yesterday, wow wow wow is it beautiful. I can't wait to display it next to the vinyl and listening party posters.

    Alt CDs should come tomorrow but I can pick them up today, the Amazon will be here Saturday, and the hoodie box set will arrive Monday :wub:  Love how the annoyance about the multiple drops and shipping charges melts away as soon as the merch starts to arrive hehe.

    Thoughts after the first day:

     

    Would die for: Ocean Blvd, Sweet, A&W, Candy Necklace, Kintsugi, Fingertips, Paris, Texas, Let the Light In

     

    Love love love: The Grants, Jon Batiste Interlude, Grandfather, Fishtail, Taco Truck x VB

     

    Enjoyed, but not as much: Peppers

     

    Not for me: Judah Smith Interlude, Margaret 

     

    re: JS Interlude: I really enjoy the instrumental, and the slightly unnerving vibe of it all. I understand how and why she included this on the record; just listen to what he’s saying and what comes before and after that track!! But I enjoy the record more when I skip it to be honest.

     

    I *love* this record. There are some areas she’s explored that call so specifically to my life that I’m having a hard time fully listening to some of the songs. I just love her so much as an artist and person for being brave and telling these stories. And for making me feel seen as an emotionally-driven, complicated woman when I wasn’t always comfortable being that.
     

    Thank you, Lanita!!! No one does it like you 🖤
