Loved this, very beautiful and Old Hollywood. Glamour meets grey gardens, as others have mentioned old money and fine china vibes for sure from the shoot and interview. I also loved how she discussed/referenced Honeymoon. I do fear those people looking for the "bops"/return to a more energized sound are going to be very disappointed from what was revealed about the music.That said she always has a track or two that is a mood/vibe piece you can really groove to. I screamed internally when I read orchestra! Orchestra, raw, and reverb... I am ready lol. Hopefully the music is sooner rather than later but if it is still untitled then maybe just maybe some of these recent outings/events/life living in Italy will find there way into the music. We know she works fast no matter the circumstance. I also found the part about how ideas are harder to come by now very interesting. How she said she really no longer can write when alone/needs to be forced into the studio.I still think she is a free flowing well when compared to other artists especially but the fact that she shared that insight is just kind of very revealing and super insightful.

Has been on repeat all morning/since I woke up. It always speaks to my soul! Currently blaring while getting ready for a trip, for reference it is 4:40 in the morning lol! Sure my neighbors love me since the backdoor is open, for the pups.

Preliminary ranking for me. Def subject to change. Love every track though, no skips. Serving, period.

Loving this album. So sooooo good. The album tracks are just **chef’s kiss.** Best record since Pop2. Everything blends and flows so perfectly. Really vibe with all the tracks. Will def have on repeat!

Yes, loving this new EP, it is so good. High Alone just instantly was a fave when it was first released for me and remains THAT song. Loving all the tracks though. It’s certainly a vibe/mood. She doesn’t disappoint!

Norman Honeymoon Blue Banisters Ultraviolence Chemtrails Lust for Life Paradise Born to Die I find myself gravitating more towards her recent work. As others have stated it just feels more real, honest, and relatable. Being closer to her age and kind of growing/maturing with her as her albums have been released has allowed each album to have it’s own time for/with me. That said we all grow, change, and move forward. While Ultra and BTD are staples in her discography I have found them less relatable as I have gotten older. That said Honeymoon and Ultras compositions and just perfect concepts/execution keep them up in the rankings. Both Chemtrails and LFL have some real classics/highlights but as a whole just are not as impactful as the albums ranked above. I personally have always preferred Paradise as a whole vs BTD itself. I just think it is the better executed project. Not to say BTD is lacking by any means but just weighing the albums in full Paradise hits more for me.

As always everyone is entitled to our own opinion but I really don't understand the mass hate/disappointment lol. Okay, okay.. the lack of a bridge could be upsetting when told about it but that is why we don't always listen to insiders lol. I think it was pretty obvious where this song was going based off of the snippets, but that's me. I will say I do believe there prob is an alternate version. Maybe it is a version that was intended for an album or still could be intended for an album, we don't know. I can see them shortening it for the show and also for better/more easily accessible listening/replay value. Anyways for me this song is so dreamy and atmospheric. It's a flood of emotions and imagery! The melody and lyrics are just so beautiful! I personally think it is a great song and will be streaming the fuck out of it lol. I def think she accomplished what she needed with this song for the show. May be unpopular opinion but I also think that the length is perfect. I don't even notice how short it is lol. It honestly feels longer than 3:30 but it is 3:30 so that makes it perfect to listen to again.. again....again.....and again. I love stanning such a prolific and talented artist, we are truly a lucky fandom. Nobody has done and continues to do it like Lana but again that's just my opinion lol!

I slept through New Years but just woke up and am listening to our girl on shuffle. We started with Ride and now have moved to Cinnamon Girl. It’s going to be an interesting year!

Aura is wistful and focused lol!

I know she originally wrote and gave Better Man to Little Big Town but let me just say this version is it! It is my favorite vault track too. Soooo good! Also ATW10 adds a lot more layers and interesting lyrics that further add to that story and experience. I really love that deeper dive and enjoy it very much.

I really haven’t followed Taylor very closely since Speak Now and Red but I did revisit this version and I must say it is a breath of fresh air and nostalgia. I’m really looking forward to a TV Speak Now. That will always be my fave TS album so very interested to see how a redone version with unreleased tracks will be. Taylor truly is a magical artist when you think about her growth and development. Personally for me she went in a direction that I just wasn’t as invested in with her releases after Red but you cannot deny her catalog and the talent/drive she exhibits and exudes.

Blue Banisters - Post-Release Discussion Thread + Poll
DLT replied to Elle's topic in Post-Release Threads
Very true! She’s still going to sell the same amount but it will just be spread out. While she may not be recognized as successful by “gp” standards she still does very very well for the type of artist that she is. Literally nobody else could do it like her with the same circumstances lol! -
Blue Banisters - Post-Release Discussion Thread + Poll

Main issue is the vinyls being delayed. The social would have maybe helped some but the nail in the coffin so to speak is the lack of her primary physicals this first week. -
Blue Banisters - Pre-Release Thread: OUT October 22nd, 2021
DLT replied to Elle's topic in Retired Pre-Release Threads
I know I’m the minority here but the string version of Beautiful didn’t do too much more than the piano to me. I love the original one honestly! It’s such a wonderful track! So excited for the album to officially be out though! Very very curious to see how the media and gp react to it. Should be very interesting! -
One of my fave songs off this album and one of my fave videos. The simplicity and beauty of it paired with the song itself makes something magical. Love how you catch instances of her sadness but then she kind of pulls herself out of it knowing she has her sisters there. Love the kitchen/cooking scenes and just seeing her and chuck play around. Tex or Mex also making an appearance, just yes!
