I’ll see y’all in 9 days! Xoxo

Yeah, all of the somewhat clashing perspectives has me super pumped.

I love that we have so much information on the album and three different points of view on each song and yet I have no idea how it's going to sound because I just can't imagine it that's why I don't give fuck about reading what the insiders say.

Let the Light In sounding like
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
HELP
 

Are we surprised? FJM and Lana gave us Buddy's Rendezvous, ofc Let the Light In was going to be incredible  
 
And y'all doubted it 

I'm so intrigued about that song cus you don't know how much I love VB instrumental 

I think "Let the Light In" will collectively destroy us all. It's the ONE song besides A&W that has been highly, highly praised by everyone who's heard this record.

I didn't like them at first but they're so camp, the tracklist is giving mess and magnum opus. 

I love all the song titles. I feel Ike they give absolutely nothing about the songs away 

Right, and I think he was saying that rhetorically and not literally - coming from the standpoint of the thematics rather than the aesthetics - and that’s probably why Lana went with Ocean Blvd too (since it poses a question that is immediately evocative - and all her album titles have been more evocative than direct).

I hear where he's coming from, but titles are very important to me, they carry a huge amount of aesthetic weight to my enjoyment of albums, and I don't think I would have enjoyed this upcoming record if it was titled The Grants. Did you know that there's a tunnel under ocean blvd is incredible and really constructs the depth of this record.

BoZ saying that the album should have been called “The Grants” carries more weight now - since Lana said to Billboard that the album is all about family of origin…curious to hear that one the most now. 

i have been campaigning for the grants since the name was confirmed i knew she would be that girl 

I have to laugh when we start to doubt if we’ll like the songs because of what the insiders say. As the stoics say - don’t suffer imagined troubles. Be completely static until you actually hear them and you’ll be way more at peace! ❤️

These wildly different rankings have me SO hyped, there’s definitely something for everyone and seems like most, if not all, of the songs are ~quality~. Another career-defining album incoming
