i honestly think lmlylaw is classic. it's like a ballad from another era, which is perhaps why ppl stomp on it for being boring or whatever

Let Me Love You Like a Classic, indeed. 

Anyways, Chemtrails is a wonderful album 

[Make me your Dream Life 87,836]

when i think of LMLYLAW it reminds me of miss peregrine's cover photo for florence's wish that u were here, but also at nite where its like an edgier hallmark movie and the moonlight is bathing the farmland and there's like colder szn banging and everything's happening so fast and gravity is playin with us and then ocean balconies and caressing and then the pink sunrise and like tractor fun and driving off playfully and wagon rides and open skies and chewin hay riding at the back of a truck w full clouds against a blue sky

A daily remind that yosemite is a top tier

[Super Movie 51,689]

I've been saying that Chemtrails is the next Honeymoon in terms of fan reception (hated by most at first, but eventually becomes a fan favorite) 

[lustforlife 19,008]

And a daily remind that i said on page 20 that it would be a honeymoon situtation and ask for streams but nobody listened

Spoiler

 

lowk i stay a yosemite hater bc the poetry is not rlly up to her current standards. prob bc it's lfl era and her writing improved a lot in the time of a few years. 

som about her rhyming change with change right out the gate

anddd

"We did it for fun, we did it for free
I did it for you, you did it for me
We did it for the right reasons
We did it for the right reasons"

don't scalp me

Same here! Yosemite is my favorite song on Chemtrails, so you can imagine my shock when so many people didn't like it  It's so beautifully intimate. The lyrics, although simple, hold a lot of emotion in them where you know Lana means exactly what she's singing. It doesn't need to have extravagant, metaphorical lyrics for it to get the feelings across. Waiting for Chemtrails to release this song was such a good choice - it fits into the album perfectly

This whole album has been a masterpiece since day one so it's lovely to see people coming around  The legacy of Chemtrails will continue to grow forever

The constant repetition and same-y instrumental throughout the song is actually my favourite thing about Yosemite. It matches the message of the song and her storytelling about things not changing at all. But I understand why some people wouldn't care about the song that much tho

[Fingertips 72,037]

Honeymoon, Chemtrails Over the Country Club and Blue Banisters are cult classics.

i've tried so hard but i still don't like this album.... it's LFL tier messy to me

 

i vow that one day i'll come around and i'll love it

huh i hadn't thought of that at all. i acctually love this interpretation although its not my fave song

[Venice Jesus Whore 4,471]

Breaking Up Slowly always hits different and is one of the best songs on the album. Don’t @ me.

white dress, chemtrails, tulsa, wild at heart it works as a 4 track ep

lfl does too tbh with 13 beaches, cherry, summer bummer, groupie love

I really want to live in this album. It’s so beautiful and confident in a quiet way. The production is delicate and graceful, and Lana’s voice just shines. I love it so much, I’m so happy this record was released the way it was because it’s really a gorgeous, cohesive, 11-track piece to just get lost in thought with.
