i cannot imagine blue banisters and chemtrails combined as one album, they’re polar opposites for me in my opinion :bebe: where chemtrails is light and airy and sunny and pastel, BB is dark and heavy and humid and stormy. i feel like what makes these albums work on their own is their cohesion—if you take that away, they don’t have much else going for them. even if you took the best songs from both and put them together, i think the messiness of it would actually result in a worse album than either of them are right now :trisha:

i actually agree - it was really more an interesting thought experience more than anything else

relistened to the whole album again for the first time in a year and wow… it aged even worse than expected :awkney: which is weird considering i loved it when it came out and found it miles better than cocc. time the ultimate truth teller after all…

 

it’s a cosmic miracle it still gets the daily streams it gets considering how unnecessarily long and boring the album as whole is. Several songs on their own are pretty good but 14 piano ballads back to back lord have mercy :air2:

Top 5 from BB

 

01. Dealer

02. Black Bathing Suit

03. Thunder

04. Sweet Carolina

05. Blue Banisters

 

 

its really hard for me to put the UV outtakes on this list because they feel like impulsive tack ons. If I were rating honestly though those three would outrank almost all of these except Dealer.

I just realized... the way WW was by far my favourite one of the triplet singles (it was my 5th most listened track 2021), but it's actually the song of BB I have been listening to the least this year... (can't even recall when the last time I listened to it omg...:crossed: while all the other BB songs I listen to reguarly, except maybe not Beautiful and VFR as often lol) when it's actually sooo good, idk I guess it's like that is the one BB song I can't listen to everyday at any give time. Maybe I have to be in the right place and time for that one nowadays.:cuteface:

I asked Asmodeus (the demon of lust) to make Miley Cyrus suffer. I am not happy with these new developments. After Miley rips off Lana's aesthetic, she bullies Lana into changing her release date. It is infuriating.

My top 5 no particular order, these are just it for me. Love BB in general but these 5 are perfection.

Edited by DLT
Attempted to rank them, it's hard: Thunder, Blue Banisters, Text Book, Dealer, If You Lie Down With Me.
