hope is... found dead

You roll like thunder - and it all comes down to make the sound of our...

I don't know why some of you find weird that she namedrops people in BB. She's been doing that her whole career (The Jims, The Ks, the Johns... even Chuck in Motel 6) it's just that this time we actually know who she's talking about but it's not for the sake of authenticity it's her way of writing.

I agree. She's painting a picture, using actual events from her life here, an idea there, a sudden inspiration or feeling here again. She's writing impressionistic stories or prose poems and placing them to music. It's a mistake to take any song or lyric literally. Whether it's 'Text Book,' 'Wildflower,' 'Old Money,' 'Honeymoon' or 'Cola,' we--the audience, the listener--get the idea and set of emotions she's conveying. She's not a more literal storyteller like Bobbie Gentry with 'Ode To Billie Joe.' 

I don't think it's about authenticity - it's more about her feelings about this person have changed and this is something that happens all the time like I know for a fact I wouldn't leave in a song meant for someone I just broke up with on my upcoming album 
 
The anecdotes aren't her pushing an authenticity narrative it's more of a storytelling device (and it paints a picture in our head) and even if she is sticking to her telling her story or what not it seems like she's doing a good job so let's wait for the album 

Flipside tier closer 

IT'S BECAUSE JAZZY ELECTRIC QUEEN IS BACK 

obsessed w her dark hair omfg it's electric guitar season bby!!!!!!!!!! 

Manifesting 1 min long outros like on I Talk To Jesus 
 

Once we get the album we'd be able to tell if the album scrapping was because of the break up or not - we know that the three singles we got mention Clay in some capacity (and that this album was about recent events according to her) so yeah and the fact that she added Thunder to this album... 
 
Since she claims she's telling her story on this album it's gonna be interesting how she's gonna flip the whole thing about Clay but whatever we'll see 

I think tnbar's chorus perfectly encapsulates the dissonance of a bad relationship n how things are different from one setting to another. and adds to the overall theme of dissonance btwn them in him more externally and her probably more internally so it gets u questioning the overall synergy of said updated chorus to said islands to cinnamon's spice n title track n so on. and it's duplicitousness only compliments it's hollow. it's a chasm and fulfills its role well imo. 

it's been transmuted but the update made it a lot more clever while taking on it's older meaning of a song thru and w it's added guise. 

n mentioned before earlier/other pre-release in how hope to bartender, to woman on chemtrails. to hole in her heart, to further introspection n healing to being tempted to learning. 

I really want to know what comes after BB's track. 

Can’t wait for Lana’s response in “Fresno Himbo Anthem” 

Don't be shy Elizabeth drop Sierra Madre 

This. I find it sooo weird that some people (on here, on twitter, on internet in general) just start hating on a person in Lana’s social circle because they a) get a bad vibe from them or b) just don’t want a kind of music they think they’ll get from Lana’s interaction with them. Or, c) hoping that they’ll break up so we’ll get another “ultraviolence”. We really don’t know much, if anything. It’s just so, so weird to me how some people can be so strongly opinionated about someone they don’t really know.
Lana’s an adult, I’m pretty sure she can make her own decisions who’s good for her to be with and who isn’t. If her friends make her happy, we should be happy too. I would never wish for her to go back to being depressed again, never. I’m here to listen to whatever she writes, and I might not always love every single thing, but I’m here as long as it’s good and as long as I’m interested.
Sorry for going off topic, I guess.

Okay, this (the “news” that she is single a again) makes sense why the album could still be named Blue Banisters, even though BoZ said it was renamed: the song makes SOOO much sense in the context of a breakup…

What's with the constant Nikki slander? Not talking about you but the inside jokes everyone's making and some genuine haters. I was pretty late to the COCC party. 
 
On some other thread people found some "proof" that Lana broke up with him. I always find it kinda sad when anyone breaks up unless it's a toxic relationship. I expected Lana to become a mom soon since she mentioned her own non existent kids in COCC and BB songs if I remember correctly. To be honest, her music was better when she was less happy but people shouldn't say it often. The same people probably whine about Kurt Cobain killing himself and other musicians dying, so not glamorizing artists struggling with mental issues would be nice for a change. 

Listening to Blue Banisters and realizing how depressing the track is in retrospect given her alleged split with Clay. I always figured the “…man that’s still right here” was him. I legitimately feel so bad she’s in that situation 

I was just thinking this, and it makes sense considering how recent the alleged scrapping was.
 
Then again, I’m sure Lana has released music for relationships she’s ended in the past, but I dunno. 
 
While we obviously don’t have access to her personal life, I do feel that her relationship with Clay seemed like one of her most serious ones, so I wouldn’t blame her for scrapping songs potentially centered around him. 

In response to being unfollowed by Clay: “There’s always turmoil and upheaval and in the midst of it - there’s always beautiful music too. I’ll be channeling these feelings and more in my next album, Red Hot White Hot and Blue Hot, out Aug 1st ?”

Hoping that the county vibes are clay influenced and now that they’re broken up she’ll shift away from that. It was okay for one album but all her eras are usually more distinct. 

Maybe this is why she scrapped half the album 

She's gonna talk to us now. Chuck is busy with baby, Charlie's in a dumpster somewhere, and Jenny is up stairs stealing her jewels. We're all she's got. SINGLE INCOMING

Let's manifest:

- 8 different album artworks to cashgrab us mercilessly since this is LDR8
