at the 1:30 mark of tunnel under ocean blvd there’s that signature noise from the BTD that sounds soo good, it feels nostalgic

one single with 0 promo that no one knew would come out yesterday vs the lead single of one of the biggest tv series ever only for it to end up barely getting 100k streams more 

[Beautiful Loser 46,069]

First time hearing the single on radio! 

[Venice Jesus Whore 4,456]

So, given I haven’t had time to follow this thread much since the release, what’s the consensus on the song here? 

[Make me your Dream Life 83,217]

the song hits harder if or when you sing it yourself 

[Make me your Dream Life 83,217]

i consider myself a fortitude of emotional strength n resilience i know who i am, and w that, listening to this song holy shit. tears. its like u can feel her pain and u just wanna walk w her and get her a pick me up or something to make her feel better

i wanna rant and argue at whoever made her feel like shit and then we'll give her a coconut w the cute umbrella straws 

[Ocean Boulevard 39,080]

Also I played the title track for the first time in the car today and it was so good

Really trying to not listen too much to it but it's hard ,  there is sth very addictive about the song 

[Make me your Dream Life 83,217]

this song has me compartmentalizing like what, but when she sings about wanting her turn, not to forget her its like u know those moments when someone is vulnerable w u and u see their inner child and u just wanna protect them ohmygod 

[Yameena Khatri 3,131]

Took me a while to understand the lyrics better but it feels like she's pleading us, fans, music lovers to not forget her & her artistry just like how forgotten the Jergen Tunnel is 

[the ocean 67,621]

i think that it's more about not forgetting HER, elizabeth grant, not forgetting she's a real person

that's my interpretation though - and i love how it can be interpreted differently it's a very interesting song

Also I shouldn’t be embarrassed to admit this but I actually cried listening to the title track & I never do, much less with a song I don’t identify a ton with???

 

Maybe it’s just end-of-the-semester stress, but the song is just so raw. The vulnerability is palpable, and comparing herself to a forgotten tunnel in a world where millions feel they understand her is heartbreaking, really. It almost has an existential undertone like that of Landslide as well. 
 

It really goes to show how much she’s grown as an artist by being able to move people with fairly obscure, highly individualized life experiences in a—by many current literary standards—successful poetic fashion. 
 

I genuinely believe she’s making the music that fulfills her, and it’s really inspiring seeing how her old covers of tracks like Chelsea Hotel No. 2, Goodbye Kiss, etc. are reflected in her music today.

I agree, and I teared up listening too!  On a personal note, I (and likely so many others reading this) have felt so caught up in the fast currents of life and feeling like I’m on this never-ending path of climbing a ladder that only has more rungs, that I’m just like, God! When’s it gonna be my turn? The turn to truly live and be seen for what you are, which is exactly what I see Lana grappling with on this song. It’s tough out here for us all, but this song and record hopefully make for a companion that reminds us that we can thrive <3
