how does everyone feel that the era has been extended to 2024? do we think she's gonna do more for the album? is she going to be super meta and release the unreleased album to go along with the themes of being forgotten like the tunnel? or is she going to pull an arianka and shoe in a new album while the tour continues

ocean blvd the song needs a cute tour video too
and maybe let the light in could be one of those cheesy 70's videos
(but a video for peppers or fishtail wouldn't be so bad
)

21 minutes ago, honeyslow said:Though the title would go on to inspire many jokes about its lengthiness, Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd is a massive creative triumph for one Elizabeth Grant. She and superproducer Jack Antonoff hit their stride as partners on this Grammy AOTY-nominated project, with the alt-pop titan mustering some of her most vulnerable and thoughtful lyrics ever while somehow managing to maintain her trademark campiness throughout (see: that perplexing four-minute spoken interlude from pastor Judah Smith). While her earlier work gives way to more dramatic proclamations and aesthetics, Ocean Blvd takes a softer, more introspective approach to Lana’s longtime muse — Americana — that’s achingly feminine, full of yearning, and underscored by clever references to male figureheads such as Leonard Cohen, John Denver and Bob Dylan.
What a weird review blurb this is from Billboard lmfao tell me you didn't understand the album at all without telling me you didn't understand the album at all... Judah Smith interlude being her trademark campiness like WHAT
yeah cuz like where is the bob dylan reference? (forgive me if i missed it lol)

i feel like when she said things would be simpler she meant with the subject matter. the last two albums featured some of her most personal songs to date and she had never explored some of the topics on ocean before - maybe slight teases on blue banisters. this album was monumental for many reasons and one of them was the story it told. i'm so proud of her like this was the closest she could challenge norman and I KNOW she has it in her to decimate nfr!
about the standards... well lana does have her own standards but yeah guess we might be getting the covers album after all

Also Unchained Melody as final track would be incredible.
i'd sell my soul for that cover to be put into streaming it's so haunting
