Blue Banisters - Pre-Release Thread: OUT October 22nd, 2021

[Fingertips 72,043]

The problems I have this record are almost like an inverse of Lust for Life. These are all mostly incredible songs, but there is something about the track-listing arrangement or maybe an addition of too many older songs that makes it feel like a collection of songs rather than an album

Took a bubble bath

and some pills

, ordered Italian food and spritzed myself with French perfume, now I'm going to lie down in my Violet merch & pearls and luxuriate in the sounds of the album. 

 

Thunder, If You Lie Down with Me, and Sweet Carolina... here I come bb's.

I love every hair on your head

I love you like God loves you

And you say that you're scared, might be unprepared 

For heaven my baby blues

Baby blues, baby blues

If things ever go wrong

Just know this is your song 

 And we love you

 

You named your baby lilac heaven

After your iPhone 11

Crypto forever screams your stupid boyfriend

Fuck you, Kevin

so…. now that lustforlife’s illegible ramblings were proven once again fake (for the 10th time this year alone) can we finally all come together and bully his dumb ass off the site?

Sweet Carolina is her worst closer, even though it's a great song. Tbh, it sounds like a middle of album track.

This I disagree with. Sweet Carolina is a highlight for me and is up there with Get Free and hope.

not releasing Thunder as the lead single and sending it to radios was a huge missed opportunity tbh

Spoiler

with the reworked production its a superb pop-ballad and it couldve seen success lbr

I missed the receipts, what happened 

[living legend 3,171]

ok…seeing how this track seems to be a lot of people’s favourite, please don’t attack me right now BUT, black bathing suit sounds unfinished? the verses and the chorus do not sound cohesive and its her weakest vocals on the record IMO.  

“email me when you get the BLuuUUuEeSssS” ?

Just rich with love for Lana. 

[Fingertips 72,043]

Black Bathing Suit is bad and Beautiful is the worst song on the album. I'm sorry. I see what she was trying to do, but she didn't quite get there.

do parts of IYLDWM share the same melody as American or am I hearing things??

 

Edit: also loving the "dance me around the room" throwback to smarty
