This reminds me of when you're talking to someone from high school that you haven't seen in a while and they're very insistent on wanting to catch up with you 

PLSSS kick the gay out- you could see in her eyes she wanted to do it so bad

Who is this twink 
 
did she even mean to add him in screaming

I really don’t understand not using her official insta but using Honeymoon, like…..ok…

Up to 80 on Metacritic!

yes

Ageee!!! Jack really did iconic work with her. I don’t get the jack hate however I think what suits Lana best is switching  up producers often, since she is very dynamic.

you’re all really dragging Jack like nfr! wasn’t in your top lana albums
 
(I love Jack, glad he did what he did in nfr! and cotcc. And I’m glad he wasn’t involved in this album. Both opinions can co-exist)

Okay, completely bawling my eyes out after Sweet Carolina. Seriously, crying like a baby right now, so I'm fighting back tears as I write this.
 
This is probably a bit personal for me to share, but I spoke about it a little bit ago last month when I shared a GoFundMe link for something regarding this.
 
At the beginning of this year in January, one of my best friends announced an unexpected pregnancy with her fiancé. Our friends & I were surprised, but told her we were there to support her through every step.
As a bridesmaid, I watched her walk beautifully down the aisle to marry her husband in June, knowing their baby would be shortly on the way. Was fighting back tears then too. (& didn't do a very good job at it based on the pictures.)
I then got to attend her baby shower in August, reveling in her excitement and nervousness. I even helped her set up the crib afterwards. She was so scared, not feeling completely prepared, but she was so excited for her new child.
She gave birth to her lovely baby boy on August 28th after a 48-hour labour. A perfectly healthy baby. She was so happy and we were all happy for her, and it was the beginning of a new chapter.
I don't even know how to write this next part, again as I'm still crying here, but her son unfortunately passed away just 9 days later in her arms suddenly from SIDS. She had texted me in the middle of the night about it as her son was airlifted to the hospital.. not really having much hope from the doctors.. until he was eventually declared braindead.
It was like the world had completely shattered in front of all of our eyes.
Some friends flew in for the funeral, and seeing her once more walk down an isle.. this time completely heartbroken and empty inside.. I don't think anything has ever broken my heart more.
The first time I saw her since the funeral was two weeks ago when her, her sister, and I went up to the mountains for a little birthday celebration for me. She was laughing and having fun, showing a little of that old side of her joyous self that had been completely wiped away after the tragedy she faced. 
I love her so much, and this song makes me think of her.
 
We love every hair on your head
Love you like God loves you
& you say that you're scared
Might be unprepared for havin' the baby blues
Baby blues
Baby blues
If things ever go wrong
Just know this is your song and we love you
 

I love you, M x
 
 

The entire album has audio problems on spotify 

Congrats, you'll finally listen to it! 

What the HELL? 
 
 
 
 

This was so obviously made by a Born To Die stan  

remember when we all made thinkpieces detailing the meanings behind each single cover for blue banisters, text book, & wfwf, talking about how all of the details made sense for each song & her journey of telling her story & subtle revenge? those were the days!

California / Thunder
 
..Ying and Yang...

Remember when we thought this was gonna be the album cover? Time flies

Well, I can't talk for everyone, but I'd rather have Arcadia than Blue Banisters tbh

we're closing off another pre-release era, filled with laughter, fights, delusions, chaos, trolls, shitposts, & friendship!  i get a feeling we won't immediately enter another pre-release for "ldr9" right away  it'll be weird not having a full-fledged pre-release era for a main lana del rey album immediately after this one is finished, but for all we know, lana could hint at ldr9 through instagram, or her tv appearence tomorrow!  i've had so much fun with you all, not just for blue banisters, but also chemtrails!  we'll always be a tight-knit, amazing, exciting community, always having our gifs handy whenever we need them!  and if we don't get the pre-pre-release thread for ldr9 right after, we always have the covers album thread!      

MY SIGNED COPY FROM BRAVADO HAS SHIPPEDDDDDDDDDDDDDD 
I WAS SO SCARED OF A DELAY YOU GUYS DON'T EVEN KNOW
I CAN'T
I LITERALLY CAN'T

I'm just an angel ... looking to get fcked hard

spotify knew what they were doing when they decided to play ads straight after violets for roses to make me frustrated and moody in preparation for dealer next 

u brought the chaos to thread when were starving for some news, so thanks for that, by the way... i'll pray for ya
