I’m really looking forward to if you lie down with me

It sounds sexy. It's gotta serve sex. How can it not.

[missamericatrash 796]

So I just have to sayyyyy,

 

I'm honestly so excited for this album, and I was so excited, & pleased, with Chemtrails. And I know that a lot of people expected more from Chemtrails for production reasons etc, (also understandable) and were a bit disappointed, but I was very happy with it.

 

SO to see what LANA has up her sleeve (ya ballads n yada yada, but probably more too?), I'm not even sure what to expect!!!! She is unpredictable.

 

For some people, its easy to rank her albums, this one is superior and this one isn't (Ultraviolence is my #1: probably nostalgia, L4L: last BUT I still love it) but for me, its more about adding another amazing album to the Lana discography to listen to. Like, I remember when I was 23 and only had b2d, Paradise, and Ultraviolence (+any unrealsed I had discovered at the time) (ya I'm old) to listen to, on my Ipod. And now I have all these songs + poetry.

 

Anyways, 4 singles have been on repeat, n LOVE u all! Blue Banisters in 20 days (and I haven't listened to any of the unreleased, so...... )

[Make me your Dream Life 82,783]

if u lie down with me can be about having sex down a grassy hill and tumbling down literally and figuratively into a nice spring pond or like that one couple who got suctioned at the beach for doing it the notebook style the sex gods hopefully approve alrite so did the vinyl designs leak yet

If You Lie Down With Me is either gonna be really sultry or really sad. Or maybe saltry

I would have died. Lana was the first "celeb" /singer/writer that I ever gave a fuck about, and needed to keep hearing her thoughts, so I could grow as a person too... 

 

When I first heard Dt Mtn Dew, I was like, "I didn't evening know this sort of music could exist" .. and here we are 

[Alison by Slowdive 26,015]

stream 'coast of carolina' by jimmy buffett to both celebrate 'on & on' and anticipate 'sweet carolina'   it's a song about reconciliation 

From the bottom of my heart
Off the coast of Carolina
After one or two false starts
I believe we found our stride
And the walls that won't come down
Hell we can decorate or climb or find some way to get around
Cause I'm still on your side
From the bottom of my heart
From the bottom of my heart

Dancing alone in my room to Blue Banisters songs

[IanadeIrey 60,573]

I keep thinking about how in an early 2019 interview in promotion of the Gucci Guilty campaign, Lana said that the two songs of hers that best represent her are Cruel World and Shades of Cool — and more specifically, what that says about songs from 2013 appearing on Blue Banisters. I have always loved Ultraviolence and have considered it a very important and favourite record for any true fan like the users on this site, and I feel like the events leading up to it being written are significant years down the line as Lana is recapturing her story with this album.
 

I feel like the Ultraviolence — Blue Banisters pipeline (and in a more succinct, retrospective way, everything in between) is symbolic of Lana at her rawest and most existential. This is the songwriting that will see her legacy live on and on and on.

Her saying that about those songs proves nfr was influenced by barrie at least the love songs

She actually once said she was having a creative block before writing Norman, so she listened some music by “an ex boyfriend”, who is definitely Barrie, to get some inspiration, so you’re right!

Going to avoid listening to any Blue Banisters tracks we have so far, because I really want to listen to the album as fresh as possible on release night
