    Her albums would be better if she avoided fillers and "killed her darlings".

    I think BB is another fine addition to her discography. BBS and Dealer are my immediate favorites so far, but everything else is really enjoyable (as is usual for me). Anyways, BBS seems a brilliant companion song to Black Beauty, which is interesting, given the old leaked songs (which I'm highly in favor of) are kind of a positive "referendum" on Barrie. Don't think they'll be getting back together; however, that's no reason not to work together. I refuse to conceive of Dealer as anything other than a hilarious topic for a song (i.e., pop fiction, unless somebody has impressive receipts-- i.e., none of this ambiguous "it's my story" type statements). It's both Lynchian and Lizzyan at the same time. Her "screaming" is impressive AF and is similar, imo, to opera divas having a really bad day in some modern work (i.e., as a kind of singing/acting). 
     
    Another thing I like her doing is the greater compositional involvement in the production, as in the horn arrangements (and she's also credited with the arrangement of the Trio; so that wasn't just Mike Dean messing around). In the center of the CD booklet there's some music score, with some lyrics, which I can barely make out as from Arcadia. I can't read the music, but if it were for her horn arrangements for that song, she would seem to be making the point: "I did this". I would have rather seen the impressive horn outro for IYLDWM; however, that wouldn't have had lyrics to ID it (so I wouldn't have been able to guess what it meant). It makes me wonder whether all the horn-guitar noodling that ends the White Mustang video (which I've never seen a credit for) is hers too. 
     
    Finally, I'm totally compulsed to say: it's a harmonica, damn it! (that she makes her voice sound like on LL).

    Accidentally listened to the radio for a while today n went with it and I think part of what separates Lana’s music from pop radio music is that it’s infused w genuine emotion, and isnt afraid to be slow. It’s infused w nuance and is real rich w its cadences and isnt afraid to sound how it does. It has an original soul
     
    the album’s on a tier of its own n im sure time’ll treat it well

    After digesting the album I truly feel that the standard album cover is perfect for the entire record.

    Glamourising tf out of my life rn.. I’m currently filming at a hotel for a movie and they just broke me for a moment because I was too seen in the last shot, so I’m just dancing alone in a beautiful dress that I could never afford to purchase, in a hotel room that I could never afford to stay in, to Blue Banisters (which I purchased 9 copies of.. so that’s why I can’t afford anything else)
    Thunder just hits different when you’re dancing alone on nothing but a Wednesday night hangover & good vibes x

    Blue Banisters: Nectar of the Gods, Cherry Blossom, Living Legend (this album wouldn't have been so unwieldy at 12 tracks only)
    Chemtrails: Breaking Up Slowly, For Free (Breaking up slowly has zero chord progression and For Free is just a throwaway cover)
    Norman Fucking Rockwell: The Next Best American Record (makes the album unnecessarily longer and does nothing to add to it)
    Lust for Life: Coachella - Woodstock on My Mind, Change (ugh, hate both these tracks, especially Coachella)
    Honeymoon: Freak, Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood (Freak is one of her worst, laziest tracks, and Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood I played once or twice)
    Ultraviolence: Sad Girl, The Other Woman, Guns and Roses (some of her laziest cuts)
     
    Song I wish she never released in any context: You'll Never Walk Alone (her worst track ever)

    There's a nice explanation on genius.com
    From this perspective, the song is even sadder.
