Blue Banisters - Pre-Pre-Release Thread

i cannot BELIEVE i missed the I Can Fly discourse that song is my fuckin BABY and the only thing that’s been keeping me from spontaneously shattering into a million pieces for the past three months 

 

you guys are probably right that it would’ve been stupid to have it on the new album since it’s already released and easily accessible on spotify, but there’s a tiny part of me that would’ve just loooooved to see that underrated gem get some more shine <33 also the possibility of having a live performance of that song WOW

I read the lyrics why do you think that the song reiterated the mother/daughter theme?

 

it's a song dedicated to her friend jane powers, who she's known since her lizzy days

some girlies would really be mad if BB isn't the opener of the album cuz of her consistent #1 and #2 flip flop of the title track on each album. it would ruin the tradition. 

 

but honestly, i'd love for BB to not be the opener this time. it doesn't have that good, signature instrumental intro that lana openers do. i hope she breaks this tradition. 

I am one if these people my biggest pet peeve is when people make a tracklist for the upcoming album and it doesn't have the flip flop 1, 2 thing and if she broke that tradition I don't know what I would do.

I was convinced without a sliver of a doubt that Arcadia was coming today and now it’s like… not so I’m just having a lot of trouble processing this… help

As @Surf Noir mentioned, the song is dedicated to Jane Powers, a friend of hers since 2008! Some of the lyrics also seem to suggest that Jane was a bit of a mother figure, when Lana otherwise didn’t really have one, perhaps internalizing accusations of being a “wild child” by her own mother (“but you never cared about my name, and darling, I never meant to defy you” “I never meant to be bad or unwell, I was just living on the edge - right between Heaven and Hell, and I’m tired of it”). The chorus speaks directly to Jane, whereas the bridge seems to shed light on her own mother.
 

There’s also a distinction between who is being addressed in the verses and the chorus, as Lana mentions “sweet Baby Jane” in the same verse wherein she speaks directly to someone else. But then in the chorus, we know she’s speaking to Jane, so again - there’s that dual perspective. Hope that makes sense!

Sometimes I wonder what if BOZ is lying to us or Lana's team managed a way to keep info secured or leak fake stuff to mislead insiders?

It would be so fun if the tracklist comes and it's nothing similar to what we expect.

Imagine Lana doing 50 different tracklists with each one having random unreleaseds to fuck with people 

(I know he's reliable and probably right tho)
