believe it or not, a lot of thought goes into each release n they obviously reproduced it and took out the bridge n drums for a reason. she consciously chose to not keep those elements in the song. people can be frustrated with that. 

Somehow it really hits seeing it officialy released on streaming,  after almost ten years of in & out & back again into the trash can , SYTH finally made it 
Just listened to it in the car and it sounded really good,  I could even hear the details 
 
I mean it's kinda sad she stripped down the drums & I was attached to them but after a few listens I got used to it & this version is still beautiful & dreamy , it's giving summer breeze vibes somehow,  definetly can see myself listening to it on a chill,  relaxing summer evening outside in the garden.
I think they added a bit of a new guitar riff at parts,  which I love,  the xylophone , the caracas,   the bit of strings,  it's pretty & there is still some sort of bass/beat / drum or whatever you call it 

Confirmed festival set list song now lol
i agree that this new version is beautiful and feels fresh. I still hear some drums in certain parts. I love it

I love the title track but I wouldn’t describe it as the sound of summer lmao 
 

A&W is also in there

the song that grew on me the most is The Grants, it's seriously soo beautiful. It has her best vocals on the album, alongside American Whore 

Good morning to Sweet stans only.

Where are the livestreams???? Where are the pictures??? Why do we only have two pictures and a 5 second video 

Please lorde is a pretentious little turd 

She says the following words out loud in the song:
 
Father, Sister, Brother , Grandpa, Grandma
 
and only thing missing is mother. 
 
it’s truly a statement.

take it to the lorde thread

Hi Lorde welcome to lanaboards girl!

this album is not a grower for me sadly, loved it when it came out but it got so stale

people saying ocean blvd feels like the true follow up to norman is just like back in 2017 when people were saying lust for life felt like the true follow up to born to die. but we all know that's not true and it isn't this time either. i feel like all lana's albums have something special and important about them even if some of us don't like some of them. i don't think ocean blvd could've existed in its current form without lana getting thru chemtrails and blue banisters first. 

I’m feeling like Kintsugi might be the ultimate LDR song. It’s one of those songs like Hallelujah and Take Me Home, Country Roads, like the pinnacle of classic songwriting. That chorus is straight from God and the collective consciousness

there’s a name for it Japanese it’s kintsugi

 
Kintsugi has slowly been creeping up to be in my top 3 from the album. Kintsugi soty

VOID is on TTH and all the big playlists. Lana playlisting was so bad and still is now. Doesn’t matter because she still did great despite the lack of support. Also Melanie just a released a deluxe version in the middle of tracking week. That should boost sales by a lot. I was actually hoping for something similar with Lana with the “surprise” and that never happened. Melanie is the one doing it instead and honestly she deserves the high sales because she’s hustling/working very hard. She also did a bunch of meet and greet in different stores throughout release week which should boost sales. Before the album release, she performed the songs live, teased it with proper visuals, music video ready. Like Melanie did A LOT. Mind you, all in that ridiculous costume. And she’s feeding her fans well with a constant stream of new music this week, and they are supporting her back.
 
Lana can’t even show up once at her own pop-up. 

The locals are gonna be SO thrilled. 

bad move then, all the tiktok hype would be vanished by that time. Release it closer to Ocean Blvd would be better to boost the streams (still manifesting that deluxe version)

The locals are gonna be SO thrilled. 

The locals are gonna be SO thrilled.
