I want to articulate something, I feel like while I prefer this album immensely over COTCC, a few songs from COTCC are like untouchable. Like White Dress, COTCC, Wild at Heart are just like elite and while BB has serious bangers, they never touch the height of these songs.

 

does anyone have similar feelings? Like BB is a better album/experience, but COTCC has some utterly beautiful songs?

 

Yes! As as whole, I prefer BB, but, just like you said, White Dress and the title track are in another level of greatness.

Other fan bases making fun of Lana for doing only 30k when their fave is struggling on there 3rd album.  I’d like to see Halsey or Billie do next to zero promotion, disable social media still sell 200k on an 8th album…them girls would drop fast.

She practically gave birth to them

Lana literally walked so L*rde and H*lsey and B*llie and all these other flops could run… and they STILL tripped over. Not a single female contemporary artist is even in the same league as Lana.

 I’ll add to that that Billie and Halsey both have strong pop vibes to their « alt », which helps them get played on radio (by the way, no way Halsey could have released her latest in the beginning, it’s her least «accessible » album to date). Lana is a singer songwriter. What she does is art, with very little consideration in making her songs sound like « singles ». She is bold to keep on doing music that she loves without seeking a commercial sound. And yeah, she is incredibly successful when you line up the facts like you did!

Here we go again bashing other female artists just because their fans are being annoying

Once again, I totally agree with you

We are not bashing them, we are just pointing out the immaturity of (some of) their fanbase, and spilling facts about Lana's importance in the musical industry - which is merely objective. 

 

Now, having said that,

Guys. We really do need to organise a streaming party. Is there any way to ask other fandoms to participate?

Dealer & IYLDWM are having their moments. Let's do something for them!!!  If we play the cards right, Blue Banisters might secure its #1 spot on Billboard 200 next week.

I’m so conflicted with Dealer… I love Lana’s part so bad and how sultry the production is, but I really cannot stand Miles Kane’s voice…

I now understand how frustrating it was for the people who liked Breaking Up Slowly but didn’t like Nikki’s voice. At the end of the day, we cannot force ourselves to appreciate every singer in the world, but I wish I could play Dealer more often without having to directly skip to Lana’s legendary screaming part

everyone talking about how we don't have a cherry/cinnamon girl/tulsa jesus freak on the record but that's honestly dealer

Besides 'Cherry' that's only really great live, I never thought the other two were that great tbh—they're just kinda there for me. 'Dealer' is above it all honestly.

Yeah I too wish she was singing more than just the chorus and backing vocals in the outro, honestly with Miles singing on the majority of the song it would’ve fit better on one of his records

LOL Lorde is my bae but didn't she do load-shit of promo before Solar Power, as well as Halsey and every other "alt-pop gurls" who came to the scene after Lana paved the way for them herself.

Plus, this is Lana's 2nd project this year. Her last era was literally 6-7 months ago lol... idk why these twitter stans twinks are acting like their favs could ever dare to do what Lana is doing.
