It's just- Spoiler the HORNS at the end ugh something i've been wanting more of since HM-era sax dream...it really takes the song to a whole other level and was so unexpected! btw the only songs i think would've fit seamlessly on COCC: Spoiler sweet carolina (seriously, can't you hear it coming after for free–or in place of it ) & to a lesser extent violets for roses (the strings aren't very COCC-y) 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slenderpup 91 Posted October 15, 2021 Spoiler Is it just me or does it seem like she's comparing herself to her mother on the 2nd verse of bbs... ... Promise you it's not 'cause of you that I'm mean It's my afterthoughts And what I never said, why there's a price on my head It's nothing to do with them, it's my karmic lineage So I'm not friends with my mother but still love my dad ... Like she's destined to be unlikable to everyone (her boyfriends, the public & critics) because her karmic lineage is to be like her mother, and her mother is apparently mean/unlikable. That's just my take though, idk! 17 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's just my take though, idk! That’s how I interpreted it, too. Consider songs like Text Book, Arcadia, BBS, Beautiful, the mask line in VFR, Dealer, the second verse of Sweet Carolina… there’s a definite “I don’t give half a fraction of a fuck” energy throughout the album, in a good way. It feels like raw, unfiltered Lana incorporated into the music she wants to be making, even if some people find it boring or safe. There’s a slight… unhinged energy to it all, which I’ve always loved, but feels especially potent here. 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's just my take though, idk! Spoiler And also I just thought of this... it's kind of every girl's dread that they become like their mother. Like I'm almost 32 and the last two years-ish I've found myself becoming more and more like my mom. And it gives me a bit of an inward cringe, not because she's an awful person cause I adore my mom, but she has difficult characteristics about her that are annoying to deal with but I see myself slide into those at times and it's like omg yikes, lol. So I can't imagine Lana examining herself and thinking "yuck maybe I'm too much like Patty and that's why people hate me and I'm still not married" (no shade to Lana but I wouldn't doubt if she's ruthless to herself sometimes like we all do) 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DCooper 34,645 Posted October 15, 2021 Spoiler This album is so dark and sad but also so hilarious and joyful. What a fucking RIDE through her mind, she is a genius. There is literally no doubt about it to me that she's the greatest artist of all time, in any medium. I felt that way long before this album of course, but this just once again really cements it in yet another new way. 15 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rightofjupiter 15,906 Posted October 15, 2021 Spoiler btw knowing the BBS was prob recorded most recently i hope she gets into this sound more– love that in both TB and BBS we get this big sonic shifts from section to section, which is obvs an evolution of her exploring that on DBJAG & DTWD 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
