The two top spots for Ocean Blvd come from non-music media, so maybe we shouldn't get our hopes up too high. But there are still many lists to come, it's not even a third of what it was last year.

Title! Speak for yourself only, what would she say?

I'm only a mild fan of OB, but I'm glad the world is finally waking up to Lana's work and giving her the props she deserves.

Tbh it is pretty surprising to me.
Ocean Blvd has its idiosyncrasies but I think it should be clear to anyone, especially someone calling themselves a music critic, that this album is not only a new height in Lana’s own career, but conceptually something few if any current musicians would be capable of envisioning let alone executing.
You can like the music or not and I don’t care if some magazine ranks the album lower or higher, but in my opinion not even including Ocean Blvd in a Top 50 albums of 2023 list shows a complete misunderstanding of the current music landscape and what art is fundamentally.

I just checked AOTY site and their total list for the best album and even though Lana is 3rd so far I just see that critics want to give this title to some one era wonder again. It's the same old about giving all the flowers to underdogs and sure, it's probably even good but I just don't understand how these albums are on the same level with Ocean Blvd. I maybe can understand the hype around that Caroline girl, even though her music is not for me. But I can't believe that out of all albums critics and Grammys decided to praise that 3 boring girls album. It literally sounds like any Spotify Indie playlist you'll put as background music. It's not bad at all, the hype is just so random that it makes me dislike the album.
And let me not even start with that Avril Lavigne tribute album at 1st place...

Stereogum did the same thing. Ocean Blvd has actually missed some pretty big lists so far. Definitely not as strong as NFR was among end of year lists but that was to be expected.

I think she can easily take home at least 14

Lana Del Rey was supposed to go on tour with Taylor Swift but that was scrapped because Lana had to release her cover album and LDR10 and also re-record some unreleased material and also re-record AKA Lizzy Grant

NPR did NOT have Ocean Blvd in their top 50 albums of 2023, but they did have room for Sexyy Red's Hood Hottest Princess on the list. I mean, who at NPR is selecting these? Almost every other major publication has Ocean Blvd in their top lists. I guess taste is loss on them.
No offence to any Sexxy Red fans in the audience
Edit: They do have some good contenders on their list, don't get me wrong, but leaving Ocean Blvd off is an insult to the art of music and lyricism.

Lana has also secretly leaked all her songs, because they were rejected by her labels

Lana is the one who is responsible for the AKA Lizzy Grant vinyl bootlegs but she does it secretly because her Polydor contract forbids releasing things not through them

One of my fav guilty pleasures is Christmas Tree Farm... it's a bit corny but it always puts me in a festive mood!
I really like the Old Timey Version better than the OG
This is great too!!!! I love Laufey sm
I love this one, it's not technically a Christmas song, but it has that vibe
