    fingertips is now my favourite track on the album. it took me two weeks to find my way into it but when it clicked, it fucking clicked.
    the melody of "exotic places and people" has been spinning in my head for five days. I can't help but imagine if the vocals were recorded with quality mics and there was a little more instrumentation, maybe hints of ocean sounds when she talks about the waves/drowning herself etc. but overall its an incredible track.
     
    really goes to show sometimes you just have to sit with art before forming an opinion and your first impression (while important) isn't always correct.
     
    I know people see it as a stream-of-consciousness poem that she put music to, but to me it feels like an opera. Like imagine an opera singer on stage singing it with classical strings, on a stage like this:

    We have to wait for her to vaguely mention a project concept in an interview, and then someone that smelled her shampoo in an LA coffee-shop or held a tissue she spit her gum in will come forward as the next insider that just "knows things they can't tell you how but something's coming."

    Don't worry, it'll happen very soon babes.

    current things im obsessing over in this album:

    - her voice on the line: " I'll give you a blanket, Your spirit can sit and watch TV by my side" in fingertips
    - her lockjaw-vocal styling in candy necklace on the word "feelin super suicidal" and on Ocean Blvd "only silver mirrors running down the corridor". she sounds so numb and medicated, giving bell jar
    - the reverby low end piano on the second "rockafella" line in candy necklace (2:24) and that strained string wailing in the background
    - "I can be violent tooOOooOOoo (UGH)" moaning sound effect in the background of taco truck, at 1:01
     
    thank you for coming to my ted talk

    I wish she just censored it in the same way she censored for (Amy) and for (Whitney) in get free, and "...got a (cop) who turned..." in A&W.
    I like that being a little motif in her music, that she just blacks out certain words that are too sensitive, like a redacted document.
    the starry sparkle vibe over fingertips is too distracting

    Only song I need to skip on the record. Sounds half Taylor Swift half High School Musical's credits song and the lyrics ...
     
    (Deeply loving the album still, but this concrete song is too corny. Like, too much.)

    I don’t know why I’m feeling like such a hater on this one but Margaret is so corny and schmaltzy to me. I can’t listen to it. 
     
    Especially by the time she emphasizes the party being “DECEMBER 18th” then is like “let’s waltz this out kids”…im ready to tap out.

    Controversial opinion but I actually agree with most of what he says about her records for a technical standpoint, like what he actually says makes sense from the prospective of someone who doesn’t really like Lana. I do obviously disagree with mostly everything he says on a personal level, I don’t think she has ever had a record worse than a 7 (or even dare I say an 8)
