Okay 

That's interesting. You're allowed to feel that way!! Please don't feel like you aren't allowed to feel any way or criticize her music! You're ALLOWED to thats what makes the discussion fun!
 
In some way, I agree with you that it's deeply personal but more blunt than Hope which is strange to me. But it also is so real and honest that I like it a lot. Who knows, maybe once the "my story" era is over we'll get another record that's different. This one for me though, so far, is giving me some sort of discomfort and anxiety. I can only listen to the songs at certain times because of that. Which kind of evokes UV feelings for me because those songs felt so personal too, but this seems even more so I think. Even though it makes me uncomfortable, I can say at least it's VERY well written and I love the lyrics from all 3 of the songs we have so far

I love all songs but Wildflower is my fav 

the artwork is her artistic vision, whether others like it or not is irrelevant, it was her choice

I think this is specifically true about Wildflower Wildfire. The more I listen to it the more I realize how personal that track is. The first couple times i heard it i didn't care so much for it but now it makes me tear up, i actually love that song. Which I can say is the first time a LDR song made me feel that way in years 
 
Then again, she was trending with over 80k tweets the day the songs dropped. So who knows, maybe she was testing to show her management that she doesn't have to do much, all she has to do is drop songs and albums. 
 
That could've also been a test phase for a surprise album release like shes said she wanted to do in the past. 

Tex and Mex are in the bay 

omg this thread is taking another turn now
i nominate this thread for 2021 lipster awards - the most chaotic thread. i think we have an award for this, right?

thats exactly one of the things that makes Lana so unique, no? No one else is giving us that.

Can we just stay real close to jesus
 

I also agree! I just want to add that I‘m still convinced that these three singles tell one story. One about being hurt, one about learning to control yourself and one about healing with your friends / chosen family. It cant be a coincidence that the covers of TB and WW have the wounds at the exact same places on her chest. And it can‘t be a coincidence that the background colors change from only blue to red and blue to only yellow. Also that her right eye is so big on the cover of TB and WW while it‘s normal sized on the cover of BB.
 

It‘s beautiful

what if she's releasing the next three singles on june 1st, with rock candy sweet being the lead of the three...
the way blue banisters was the lead for text book and wildflower wildfire?

chemtrails is a hidden gem, it's grown on me a lot, i normally see her previous albums in a different light when we step into a new era, cocc is my comforting nanna 

I can’t wait for this album! I feel like
“text book” is such a culmination of all her greatest melodies/progressions.
 
These one won’t make sense until you sing it in your head (do it!) but...
 
TEXT BOOK x BORN TO DIE

You got a Thunderbird
My daddy has one too
Sometimes love is not enough 
and the road gets tough
I don’t know why
Keep makin’ me laugh 
Let’s go get high...

TEXT BOOK x CHANGE
 
And there we were screaming “Black lives matter”
In the crowd by the Old Man River
(conceptually NOT a match but sing it into this melody...)
Who am I to sympathize when no one gave a damn?
I've been thinkin' it's just someone else's job to care
Who am I to wanna try? 

 
 
 

Blue Banisters gonna top NFR! I fear

Can we just stay real close to jesus
