I was surprised to see Text Book as an opener at first, but I do really enjoy the song and it sounds like another great opening track in context. It opens the more autobiographical tone of blue banisters

We need some leak or insider info cuz some of y'all show off awful taste when you're bored 

Why did y'all decide today was the day to display bad taste?

WFWF is a career highlight 

This reminds me of a comment on this video
 
it says "Lana's style isn't singing consistently like someone who's classically trained. She uses her voice like an instrument, and I love it. No, she isn't for everyone, but to say she can't sing is a fallacy." 
 
I'm glad you said this about BB because it makes me appreciate it more.
 
 
 

dealer is 
 

that guitar solo on shades of cool 

Share my body and my mind with you
That's all over now...
 
Haven't listened to UV straight through in a while. Whew, Cruel World is an opener..

Wildflower Wildfire and Text Book really hit Rob hard and he said delete your socials baby, dad’s promoting this round 

Rob really said "If they don't release the production credits I'll leak them myself" 

Sweet Carolina session. That’s Drew Erickson and I’m not sure who else

I'm getting so hyped about Dealer seeing those descriptions 

No 

I hope I got this description right omg, English is not my first language. I don’t make the news, I just report them! 

I think this line is often misinterpreted. She's only citing a contemporary event. Citing is an important part of her artwork, recently I've read an interesting essay about it (in german).

Every time it turns to May

what the fuck

Why is it you who determines that for her? I must have missed the obvious personal connection you have with her that fuels how well you know and understand her actions.
 
Frank Ocean never promoted his work and always released it without any social media fanfare. He used to post music on his tumblr account for heaven’s sake. Does that necessarily mean he doesn’t care about it enough to put on the work and promote it like someone like Selena Gomez or Bad Bunny? 
 
She announced the date. Her deactivating her socials probably mean a lot of things: mental health issues, exhaustion from all the attention (negative and otherwise), a request from her team to let some steam off of her, etc. Why are we still insisting on the “this showed lack of interest/professionalism” just because most artists use social media to promote their work? Given how much she looks up to an era in which it was all about the music and not much about this type of industry machinations, it makes perfect sense that she would eventually want to take a break.
 
There are so many layers to this situation and yet some of you always seem to choose the oversimplifying interpretations and not only insist on sticking with it but also even go as far as wishing for a leak because YOU determined she doesn’t care for whatever reasons and therefore all of a sudden we’re allowed to minimize the release date she and her label decided. Make this make any sense…
