I think it’s (sometimes) fine when others make jokes about it, but some people genuinely despise Lana’s group of friends for no reason. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve seen legitimate hate to Nikki, Jenny, etc. Blue Banisters (the song) is really a testament to how much they mean to her, so I’ve never really been able to grasp why fans are so critical of them for existing lol because they're jealous twinks who could never be best friends with Lana and they want to be. i mean, in a way, i get it because you could also be afraid they could influence her music and make her music sound weird or bad, but maybe they're what she needs to make a completely new, even better album. who knows lol 7 Quote if i fuck this model and she just bleached her asshole and i get bleach on my t-shirt, imma feel like an asshole Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She seems really kind & down-to-earth; she’s just the first current friend I thought of lol 4 Quote “…and this is all I looked for all my life – to be able to give of my love, my spontaneous joy, unreservedly, with no fear of…misuse, betrayal.” Sylvia Plath Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She said some horrible things to my friend before she passed away a few years ago. I’ve never said anything because I have no proof but she’s not the nicest person. I try to tell myself that she’s grown and changed, like all people do, but she probably doesn’t even know my friend passed away. I’m sure that her and Lana’s relationship are really good and that they benefit eachother in some way, like friends do, but if people are getting weird energy from Alex then they’re right. If I wanted proof, I could message the person who still runs her account and they would probably send me the screenshots of their DMs, but I’m not trying to overstep. I will elaborate on this more if you want me to but this is very personal. edit: nikki lane’s a queen tho I think her husband already publicly ousted Alex and Alex apologised. That doesn't mean that the people involved are obligated to accept the apology, though Unless you mean another situation 2 Quote ur legit gonna look the same stop buying oil of Olay face cream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maysparkle 2,382 Posted October 21, 2021 I love Blue Banisters even more after seeing the video for it; I keep replaying it. I’m curious about the one with Clay….but this one was like watching a calm before the storm. The shots of the weathervane were gorgeous. Her best video of this era so far. Also adds a nice idea to the visual concept of the album as a whole. 8 Quote The Log Lady [to Laura]: “When this kind of fire starts, it is very hard to put out.

bluechemtrails 22,763 Posted October 21, 2021 5 hours ago, takeitdoen said: I think Lana either needs acting lessons, or a proper director because the breaking into smiles is fine but she does it all over the place and there seems to be no gravtias when she is feeling down since the remedy is immediate. She smiles only because she is just having a happy time with her "sisters": Her pain is already washed away or under the surface and she doesn't show it. But if you look closer, she is also thoughtful in some moments. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

triangles19 2,378 Posted October 21, 2021 This video might be my fave with COCC one. It really feels like a short author movie, like a Gus Van Sant movie. The way the feelings are portrayed, the whole visual aspect of it, the cut, the subtle narrative (it's so risky to picture the lyrics of a song on a music video, but here it's delicate and beautiful), plus the very bittersweet ending : the way Lana looks at the camera seems to tell a secret story, that she is still, in a way, haunted by troubles and that she knows the support of her family and friends will not be enough for what she's carrying ; she keeps on painting the banister but it will not be enough to hide the sadness. That's what I saw, and I really liked it. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
