And how do you feel about Miss TB and Miss BB now? 

TB is messy and blm lyric makes me cringe but BB is good and i love the small piano during green and grey and the haunting single piano at the end but i hate the chucky doll birthday cake and nokia lane lyrics MM 9/10 BB 8/10 TB 7/10

i agree with you but i do want to clarify that when i mentioned those themes in her early music it's because she sang and wrote about those things because they were relevant in her life at that moment. born to die slaps and it makes my soul orgasm but what i'm just trying to say is that certain sounds and styles lana had went with the themes of her music, it would be disingenuous for her to force something like that when she just doesn't feel it anymore! 

 

i agree! that was mostly a general statement and honestly i only see people say that about her music outside of this forum, but it's still really frustrating when people act like her music is solely about sugar daddies, drugs, and depression, when it's a lot more than that! regardless, i love her music and every era/album is special <3

Also I don’t want to start drama but can we not do the “since she’s 35 now...” thing..... asking as a 22 year old woman. We shouldn’t have to have this convo every pre release lmfao 

yes.. this leaves a bad taste in my mouth whenever people say this it feels like "she's old now so she can't do something fun" yall forget she made a trap pop song in 2019 lol

and i don't want another btd from her, i'm happy with the music she's making now but don't rule something out just cause she's older

I loooooooved it when the main aesthetic of her music was about honoring lost love and I don't care what anyone says! Those songs still give me all the feels.

So... is wildflower wildfire just Dealer reworked?

[landofGodsandMonsters 1,723]

The way I am OBSESSED with Wildfire. The others haven’t hit me yet. Maybe they need a few more listens 

[Flowerbomb 65,558]

Not the best song from BB being about Sean

no... did someone say that?

Just realized that Loved You Then And Now is Rock Candy Sweet and that was ment for Chemtrails.

So Rock Candy Sweet could be another piano ballad by Jack

i feel like it’s a mix. it’s obviously about her dad, sean is the first verse, but the second verse i feel like is someone else from a long time ago

[Vanilla Icy 29,592]

and on this topic even tho it's off topic for this thread but this is where the conversion is happening 

people seem to usually to bring up songs like tiwmug and others referencing drugs and exclaim how juvenile they are and she doesn't need to continue with those themes but the entire point of lana's question for the culture is that she wants to write about whatever the fuck she wants without being crucified whether is drugs, her relationships or whatever that people have deemed immature or romanticized by her. if she thought she was above singing about that kind of stuff then i'm sure she wouldn't have expressed how those criticisms deeply affect her.

Please my eyes won’t dry up, but I can’t stop listening too  almost cried in the grocery store during BB help what‘s going on with these songs 

[Make me your Dream Life 83,473]

the songs get amplified when u think of kasabian's "this lifestyle made us" lyric from goodbye kiss and it's heart-aching heart. aching 

[Surf Noir 191,051]

the fact that every song is a stand-out and everybody has their own favorite... i find that really special and it's evident that she really did a great job <3

She says heres the deal like 10 times and sounds like she's negotiating with someone

unless it was reworked, no, because zach wasn't a producer of that track

damn I never thought about that it makes so much sense 

but I hope dealer is still another track

zach produced dealer and probably co wrote some of it so if it was reworked im sure his name would be somewhere

Okay just making sure lol, i mean chemtrails was quite a cohesive record lyrically so maybe BB will have a bunch of internal references as well
