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

[whitelungswhitepalms 9,661]

Y’all Lana will always be eating good she gets so many streams and she’s still sells very well for an alternative artist that does zero promo

 

plus the charts literally mean nothing in terms of quality of album and we all know that so why do we care
 

nfr was the last album I think she did a lot of promo with radio and events so I think we’ll see that from her again once things open up fully but that could be years lord help us

 

anyways sweet Carolina I’m claiming you as my song out of the ones that I haven’t heard I can’t wait to hear you baby

Best case scenario: Lana releases a more radio-friendly/accessible single when the album is officially released (Thunder would be a cool pick) + gets NFR-level (or close to it) critical acclaim. These could help secure some longevity + streams. If not, well, she could still debut in the top 3 / top 5 on the first week and stay there for a second consecutive week due to physicals being shipped a week later. 

I can see dealer trending on Tik tok  thanks to edgy teens

the fake album leak stage i LOVE this part 

[Three White Butterflies 26,308]

the day lana collabs with billie or taylor or katy perry is the day i check out.

 

i'll keep authenticity over a fake / sloppy attempt to get streams which in reality does not matter.

It's something, but doesn't have much album credtis tho

What is this?

[Get Drunk 17,475]

So if Lana flops on release (which she will without physicals) could we expect a new peak on the week of physicals shipping? Who’s releasing that week 

[WaitForLife 4,982]

Won't the CD be out on release date?

What's wrong with Billie? She's mad talented and both her albums are good.

Why would she not have physicals?

Right now we're in the "everyone is lying about the album leaking" phase, so that should be coming soon if it hasn't already started 

[Fingertips 72,056]

Um...anyways....12 days!

Will Blue Banisters debut at #1 in the billboard chart? From what I know there aren’t big release that day

 

I highly doubt because as far as I know BTD is her only 1# album and the other ones are #2. We all know that BTD isn't her magnum opus but the public thinks that everything after that isn't worth listening. Also, Adele is coming soon and people are super hyped since even middle aged James Bond stan dads adore Adele. 

I bet it will be #2 again and it's solely because of record sales.

Okay ladies now let’s get in formation….. 

IT’S TIME TO BUY BLUE PAINT!!!!!

[PatentLeatherDoOver 25,803]

Does anyone else have any expectations on the tracks we haven’t heard yet based on their placement/the title?

 

I know it’s not much to go off of, but the thread is moving slowly, so..

 

5.) Black Bathing Suit: The Tulsa Jesus Freak of the record—a little less emotionally heavy and maybe the most “sultry” track on the record. 
 

6.) If You Lie Down With Me: I picture it as a track with the lyrical sentiments of Love song and the soundscape of Text book’s verses…except more bluesy. 

 

7.) Beautiful: I have no idea, honestly! Is it about her life? Her lover? Is the title deceptive & we’ll actually get a lyric like with Change’s, “I don’t feel beautiful or stable”?

 

8.) Violets for Roses: It’s an interesting title, and I feel like the respective meanings of the flowers will be important. Maybe she’ll say something like, “I traded my violets for roses.”

 

15.) Sweet Caroline: I’m 99% sure it’ll be Lana paying homage to her relationship with Chuck. It’ll be the best piano accompaniment she’s released, but fans will be divided by the track: some will call it one of her best closers (I like to think that it will be), but others will deem it boring because of its production. 
 

What does everyone else think??
