    It's bittersweet.

    This part of In Wendy expresses how I feel about Lana's music.
    It's brought me immense comfort and solace. Thank you so much Lana. If I only had to consume her music for the rest of my life I could with ease and happiness.
     
    I was sure I was made out of stone
    I have lost a lot but you helped me find
    What was really real and some peace of mind
    And I'm awfully thankful and I am so grateful
    I need no one else

    I just don't know how such an inoffensive, harmless song like Beautiful can cause such anger in this fan base lmao. Blue Banisters in general is shitted on entirely too much. Overall, it's a nice cohesive mature record.
     
    Chemtrails is more boring, though it's a nice album as a whole....she missed a bit. 
     
    Both are still good records that this fan base does too much on. For me.

    Beautiful is over hated. The Picasso lyric is not that bad, and I gather what she means more or less; don't tell her how to be, she has agency over her feelings and knows what to do with them: make beautiful music.

    I've never been one to have this sort of opinion on her before but I kinda miss the "old Lana" tbh...like pre-NFR Lana. Even though I love her last 4 albums, her aesthetic, sound, and mystique in her earlier career was so much fun.

    Wow. It’s really crazy that it’s been 9 years. I feel so fucking old. I still remember listening to Brooklyn Baby on my headphones, walking down the street on a hot summer day. This music changed my life. Thank you so much Lana for giving me the soundtrack to my life and enlightening me through your music. 
     
    I spent that entire summer streaming this album, and playing Florida Kilos to DEATH. Wow what an album and what a moment that was. I wish I could experience listening to this album for the first time again.

    Agree! And it’s a shame she isn’t too fond of the creative process she had going on with Dan. I think she said he pushed her too much and she didn’t find it helpful. But the results were A+. 
     
    Being a fan during that time was the best. I wasn’t too involved with the fandom like posting on here or anything but just the media that was coming out about her and the mystique and hype she had after Born To Die and especially West Coast was everything. She was truly the coolest most bad ass woman in music. Still is btw. UV will always be #1 in my heart. She captured true nostalgia which was felt then and 10x harder now.

    wow well i saw this thread on the main page and i just thought i'd say the reception to this album was quite sad to witness i feel like lana has come a long way personally and artistically and this album pretty much sums all of that up (for me)
     
    i dont know quite how to describe what i mean by that, i just think of chemtrails as an album where she was just living in the moment and was at peace. technical critiques aside and i almost never judge lana's work by any sort of technical standard either but i think chemtrails is a fine body of work as is though i think it could have benefitted from 2-4 more songs like an 11 track lana album just feels wrong but we're spoiled, and the shortness adds to its charm in a way so idk...
     
    i go back to chemtrails quite a bit for wild at heart and dark but just a game, i adore both of those
    and not all who wander are lust is a great track, very underrated, songs like this, tnc, ltli are all very similar to me and are some of her best work go stream
     
    while the era was truly a huge letdown especially after nfr it was pandemic times and post-qftc so there were some factors working against it and shes already an artist who just puts it out there and moves on 
     
    all in all i look back at this album fondly all the mess aside the music itself is good, beautiful, and extremely serene.
    subsequently, blue banisters also gets harsh critiques....i think there are some points to be made for that and its less upsetting for me to see bb shade. its majority unreleased and the rest are very beautiful tracks but lacked excitement
     
    songs like violets for roses are beautiful, but listening it the first time just felt a little predictable
    and thats not a bad thing either just saying
     
    she did say this album was where she was where shes going where she whatever, so i take that into account with the fresh material off bb
    still, bb is very enjoyable with some excellent songs i mean the whole album is great i think the weakest is beautiful but still enjoyable.
    more than anything i would like a further explanation of bb and what the intention or thought was behind some decisions made for the tracklist
     
    theres my tangent

    Why does everyone hate Sexcorsism? I thought it was fun. I'm surprised she doesn't have more stans tbh...I would think the Charli/Shygirl/Sophie crowd would support her.

    Kintsugi and Fingertips haters make me even madder when you take into account that these two songs are very personal, transparent and honest. During COCC she made a video talking about how she wasn't going to let people tell her story for her, that the popular narratives were fictitious, and the real story was more beautiful than what they say. Fingertips is the result of this.
     
    Talking about it all: her siblings, being sent away, resenting her mother, wanting a child, suicide, death/loss of a partner.....I mean, she covered so many bases. As a long time fan I'm very moved by it. Like, sure a lot of this stuff we've known or has been inferred....but it's different when she actually sings about it
     
    It's storytelling, it's songwriting, it's poetry. Those just here for "bops" and "cinematic production" or whatever it is they're not getting....you're just not gonna appreciate or understand the true magnificence of the songs if you don't genuinely love Lana's writing and story. I love hearing her sing about this shit, it feels really personal and touching and I feel every word, it's truly music for the soul. Idk how some people cant see how BIG these two songs are for her. They're so important. But thats just me

    That just made me think like, maybe NFR is so loved by people because her songwriting kind of hit a sweet spot....still quintessential Lana style, but matured and refined a lot, the production also reflected that.
     
    Truly a once in a lifetime record.
