Random, unhinged, long musings about Cherry Blossom that I may or may not delete...

Me trying to explain how much I love this album

I wish she had added some vocals to the trio

Me trying to explain how much I love this album

yeah, i've listened to it enough times by now to say this is officially my favorite LDR record, with too many reasons to write out at the moment. Sorry, Honeymoon  

this album is timeless

I don’t wanna liiiiiiiiiiiiive (gasp for air)

This IS her BEST album. No question about it. Just a few songs from here blow any other album of hers out of the water. I thought she would never top Honeymoon but here we are. WOW

ok

Well I definitely appreciated beautiful at my first listen… I thought it was really cute and melody was very pretty..
but, oh boy… 
I’m listening to it right now and crying…  it is filled with so much emotion. 
Don’t tell me to be glad when I’m sad… damn she gets me… she gets mee… she is really a mother yall 

she makes us cry the whole album and last 2 tracks are lullabies

There were flowers that were dry, sitting on a dresser... She asked me where they're from, I said a place I don't remember

So don't write me a letter
I'll always be right here
Closer to you than your next breath, my dear 
 

The way some insiders said that Dealer was the worst track and now it gonna literally save the album 

“Blue Banisters” is such a perfect and iconic title.
Blue = sad  : Banisters = something we hold on to —> sad things in life we rely on/hold on/ not ready to let go. 
It’s basically a reflection of the album’s inner meaning.
 
Her mind 

I was travelling by train today, listening to this album, and thinking how good BB suits to this october/november time. I was looking through the window at the colorful forest for almost an hour. The weather was beautiful, day slowly changed into evening, and it all mixed so well with every song. I'm glad she released BB during this time. Amazing experience. 

I feel like Lana really loves the blue-profile album cover. It seems to have some sort of significance to her, as she commented “A picture is worth a thousand words” on Neil’s post of it, and only that photo. She also told Brian, the fan in the livestream, to not worry about getting the vinyl, and to get only that vinyl variant if they had to.
 
Looking at it, it is such an impactful, defiant, and stunning shot — but upon closer inspection, you can see it looks like there’s something out there in the distance that appears troubling to her, and I think that perfectly sums up the place she’s at in this record. The album is a portrait of her, essentially, and is born out of her experiences, so I actually think this cover is a direct representation of the record, and is worth the thousands of words she wrote on this album. 

this album has brought me to tears several times and that didn’t happen to me with cocc! it is really such a masterpiece. i love how authentic lana is being even though a lot of people may seem to disagree with her current promotions, (or lack thereof) lyrics and visuals

I love these thoughts. I almost think of her whole relationship with the media/pappz/critics as one giant bullying operation. And if any of you can relate to that (I know I certainly can) bullying, especially one that is so consistently thrown at you, it really starts to dominate your whole being. You start thinking that “maybe they are right” and before you know it your world succumbs to those attacks. I’m not sure if Lana’s world ever reached that low point - I can only imagine it has because she’s human. But what we’re witnessing with the release of Blue Banisters is that she always bounces back. It signals to me that she has this artistic confidence in putting out record after record, but what we’re seeing is really only scratching the surface. At face value we know she went through shit, and she came back. But we’ll never fully understand how bad things got for her which is why, in a way, I want to throw out a plea to her haters to give her the benefit of the doubt. She has so much good in her…she has so much to offer and so much to say, and of course she’s making reparations as she can too. She’s learning and growing just as we all are every day, and if BB is truly a sign of where she’s headed it’s going to be a beautiful ride 

This album is so so good. I can’t even pick my top songs because they are all so worthy. Listening on repeat all day, every day. 

I have to confess that Beautiful has become one of my faves now. I love the message a lot & it's such a beautiful song the piano in it is so beautiful & interesting,  I'm kinda obsessed with the piano in this song
