love these sm the mtwbt reference, one of the most relatable lyrics on the whole album and a catchy line from my fav song!

7 minutes ago, burthday kake said:no def same.... like that line is SUCH a punch once it comes in considering in the first half of the song she mentions all her other family members by their "title" in a positive light- basically saying she wants to be with them in life,death&whatever comes afterwards... "will you be there with me father, sister brother?" "give me a mausoleum with dad, grandma, grandpa" so you start to anticipate when patty will b addressed n once she she is..yeah like i said !! A PUNCH !!
WHAT KIND OF MOTHER WAS SHE
exactly!! and the way it's delivered is def one of the emotional highlights of the song that gets stuck in your head along with "all i wanted to do was kiss aaron greene and sit by...", "and dave who hung himself real high". i understand there's some significance to that choice but especially having heard the original version this one seems off

peppers is such a wild ride with that surf rock break

do all streaming versions of kintsugi and fingertips have these weird parts with something like a static sound?
-
candy necklace is so good it gives me goosebumps it would've been perfect on ultraviolence but at the same time it's even more eery and more mature. it also ties the interludes together so neatly, they sound much less out of place with it between them.
it's so unusual to write this without a spoiler we made it!!!!!
-
Spoilerjust heard candy necklace for the first time and i'm SHOOK tbh.... it's the closest she's come to ultraviolence in forever i hope it's not the last we've heard of jon batiste..

Spoileri love more available, light-hearted songs, but i also love when music demands a certain level of attention and thinking to fully understand it. dig deeper into the lyrics, fully process them, the feelings and emotions words and music convey, listen to the songs multiple times. you really have to feel the poetry and the melodies in your bones
-
Spoilerone day people will realize fingertips is one of her best songs ever and it's on a completely new level any artist has barely ever reached and explored

Spoileroof i definitely hear it too the whole song is very beatlesque, esp the guitars, i just thought they remind me a bit of the guitar in here comes the sun? i also thought that ltli is like a continuation of tomorrow never came, or rather a story of something that happened before it. they sound very alike too. i'm surprised insiders didn't compare them
-
Spoileri love the mtwbt reference in let the light in sm and it's one of my all-time fav songs cause i love to love to love to love you, i hate to hate to hate to hate you

whats your big 3? I'm a Candy Necklace sun+moon & Sweet rising
The Grants: Cancer, "I'm doin' the hard stuff, doin' my time, I'm doin' it for us- for our family line"
Ocean Blvd: Virgo, "in a world preserved, only a few have found the door, it's like Camarillo, only silver mirrors runnin' down the corridor"
Sweet: Libra, "if you want someone then just call me up & remember where I'll be, sweet in barefeet"
A&W: Aries, "do you really think I give a damn what I do after years of just hearing them talking?"
Candy Necklace: Scorpio, "& I'm obsessed with this, all his candy necklaces"
Paris, Texas: Gemini, "when you know, you know- it's time, it's time to go"
Grandfather: Capricorn, "I know they think that it took somebody else to make me beautiful as they intended me to be but they're wrong"
Let The Light In: Taurus, "I love to love to love to love you, I hate to hate to hate to hate you"
Margaret: Pisces, "like Hollywood & me, that diamond on your ring, the soul that you bring to the table"
Fishtail: Aquarius, "palm trees in black n white, I see in technicolor- maybe if I take my glasses off I'll stop painting red flags green"
Peppers: Sagittarius, "take a minute to yourself, skinny dip in my mind, I'm in love"
Taco Truck: Leo, "imagine if we actually gave a fuck, wouldn't that be somethin' to talk about for us"
& yes I left out Kintsugi n Fingertips (as well as the interludes for obvious reasons) despite them being two of my very faves on the album cause 1) there are only 12 zodiac signs anyway but also 2) there is just so much going on in those two songs n honestly they are ultra personal to Lana yet also SO UNIVERSAL so i could never figure it out,,, not saying other songs aren't also but you know what...im not explaining myself further.. #ifyouknowyouknow
Spoilerlet the light in sun, a&w moon, taco truck rising love the way you practially guessed my sun sign lmao even though i know nothing about astrology
-
Spoilerthe 4-7 tracks section seems the most unhinged to me and now i'm even more intrigued and a little afraid to see how candy necklace fits right in between this madness

SpoilerI AM............... shaking
-
Spoileri'm afraid my neighbors will call the police the way i'm screaming crying and throwing up at this whole album but especially the beatles line in let the light in song of the century
BUT that is... i like the bop section, esp peppers much more than i expected to? and paris texas and grandfather and the whole 8-11 tracks sequence i cannot put into words. it made me need therapy
gotta listen to the whole album a few more times to fully digest it one thing i know we haven't been fed so good for so long
-
-
i'm SO excited by everyone's reactions to the LTLI snippet but i don't really wanna listen to snippets the three untagged songs are so much to digest already.. this album will be a collapse

Just now, Fingertips said:SpoilerIT IS! in all ways it's a career highlight. the music and the heavy, extremely personal, even intimate lyricism comes together in this song perfectly
-
Spoileri miss all the drama as usual but i'm just here to dump my feelings and there are A LOT of them bc it's physically painful to listen to fingertips but it sounds so beautiful, the melody and the orchestra, i can't stop.... kinda makes me wish i didn't understand english lmao.
find your astral body, put it into my arms
give you two seconds to cry
take you home, i'll give you a blanket
your spirit can sit and watch tv by my side

i love fingertips so much i've memorized pretty much all of the lyrics by this point and sing along to it
also the fact she actually posted a pic of uncle dave in her stories so now when i listen to it i think of him too, not just of those i lost...
