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

[GetFree 1,861]

Beautiful might be a highlight.

 

Usually her melodies are beautiful already, so a song called Beautiful must even be more beautiful than normal.

I still don’t know what’s she’s saying ‘my lips like the falicks of bay veiw’ ???

It’s probably life is beautiful

“My hips, San Gabriel all day; // My lips, like the fire licks the bay, if you // think that you know yourself, you can come over // Lay your hands on me like you’re a land rover “

 

pretty sure it’s this; the “view” you’re hearing is actually the “if you” of the next line. Beautiful use of enjambment

Can't tell if Claypole is being serious or not ? is he still salty that they broke up? 

[Furor Poeticus 16,403]

I can't imagine Beautiful as anything but, well, beautiful

My lips like the fire licks the bay

If you think that you know yourself

You can come over

 

She sings "fire licks" and "bay if you" without pausing between words.

I can't make up my mind on this, but do y'all 

think Text Book works as an opening track?

I think it should be Arcadia - Blue Banisters - Text Book

arcadia would work beautifully as well! the only reason I vote for WW is because she starts with "here's the deal... 'cause I know you wanna talk about it" idk it would be iconic as the first line of the album imho just like "we both know that it's not fashionable to love me"

[Thunder Revenant 20,977]

I think TB is a wonderful opener. The huge build up, the tension, ...

Yes! To me, it’s perfect. It starts the album off on quite a simple but stark note with the line, “I guess you could call it text book....” - almost as if she’s prefacing everything she’ll discuss on this album, like this is my story that you’ve been skeptical of over the years, here’s what it really is and why it’s been polarizing - it’s a classic text book case but maybe that very fact is what you need to realize to understand me. Plus, sonically, I think it probably foreshadows the sound of this album (a perfect blend between something bluesy and something more piano-ballad-driven).

I think it does my only complaint is her albums usually have beautiful instrumental intros that sort of set the tone for the record and text book doesn’t

I didn't think it would at first, but after listening to the first four tracks of the album, it's works surprisingly better than I expected. I still think that BB or WW would've been the better choice, but Text Book is actually a pretty good opener too. And it goes right into BB really well. 

[lustforlife 19,008]

Text Book its the open track because she says: I guess you can call this textbook and she is not talking about the song , its aboht the album, that talks about her life in he own vision

sweet caroline is her best closen track so far... also, she recorded a little home video when Chuck was pregnant but idk if she will release it with the song 

 

I think Rob also played the piano on that song too... So emocional 

 

that's actually so cute must have been such a special moment for them  I imagine their joy when chuck found out she was pregnant, especially lana's!

Rob just moved for Los Angeles to stay more with Chuck Lana and Charlie... I think Lana is living her best moment

I'd cry like a baby if it was a compilation of videos starting from with the announcement that chuck is pregnant and as it goes we see her belly getting bigger and bigger until we see them holding a baby ?
