do you think we’ll get another music video for this album or nah 

I still love the idea of an IYLDWM video with Father John Misty. Full circle from Ultraviolence/Freak 

 

Don't think that will be happening though 

 

A little visual for Cherry Blossom with her on that swing in her yard would be so cute as well

we’ll get a homemade one 2 years from now in the same fashion as this one except it’ll be for Beautiful and will feature her painting a canvas blue & hanging it on her wall

There will be another one for sure, if not IYLDWM, I bet on Thunder or Cherry Blossom, but also any other song is possible.

[Thunder Revenant 20,936]

Can't believe that lackluster and uninspired epitome of boredom CoCC ends up on all the "Best Albums of 2021" lists, when the artistic masterpiece that is Blue Banisters is sitting RIGHT THERE

I think they're talking about this fanmade version:

It's really good 

Thanks--yeah, it's definitely not a LDR production.

I just watched the Lana Colbert performance. It was beautiful and the vocal performance was flawless, but I don't understand why she always does the prerecorded performances that look like MV. I don't consider it a true live performance since pre-recorded allows for taking multiple takes, splicing them together, pitch correction, etc. I'm not saying Lana does all these things but that's just the impression that it gives when she submits a prerecorded performance instead of sing for a live audience. What's weird is that Lana is fully capable of singing for a live audience and she does it perfectly at her concerts. I feel like Lana is still traumatized by her SNL experience. I hope she can move past that and give a truly live TV performance again. I would love to see her return to SNL to redeem herself.

i played NFR for my boyfriend and he liked it but still preferred BB. my holy trinity is UV, NFR then BB.

I get you. To me, these performances are basically music videos. I'd love a true live performance but I understand why she doesn't want to do it. Though BB live would probably kill me and I know she'd sing that one flawlessy 

[Make me your Dream Life 87,459]

I can totally understand why she'd never sing the title track and more of the album bc it just feels so personal. even the catchier tracks like Text Book and Thunder 
bbs might be toned down, not sure the gp would be for IYLDWM. a performance of Beautiful would be so surreal. and also, exposure would sort of be a bit inconsistent w the theme of wanting to stay away from the limelight, which gets me thinking of more homemade videos waaay down the line. 

the album's incredibly already so solid to not need anything else, but at the same time, it'd be nice to crown it w some more era memories

[Venice Peach 54,289]

The fact that she released her 3 most acclaimed projects in the span of 3 years is so impressive  (even though I'm sure that HM would have been received better if it came after NFR)

And WFWF remains a career highlight 10 years into the game 

[Churchome Rep 3,380]

I sometimes get annoyed by Lana's microphone choices on this album lol

And I'm sure noone would have cared for CoCC if it wasn't for NFR

Yeah, these are just numbers. UV destroys COCC in every possible way. 
Just how mad should you be to listen to 1 - 5 tracks on UV and rate it below 75.

[bluechemtrails 26,509]

It's curious how most critics have completely ignored her exceptional vocal performance, especially in the songs Blue Banisters and Arcadia.
