for me, the part in The Grants when piano starts playing sounds like California (honeymoon outtake).. I’ve been thinking about what in The Grants reminds me of something i’ve heard before and that’s it

I fear I agree.. not the biggest fan of her high notes especially when idk wtf she’s saying but still it’s cute she’s cute.. 

 

i don't wanns start another argument about it but it does bother me she's not using her low register like in burning desire or blue jeans anymore, they don't even sound like the same person anymore idk how to explain it, her vocals are still beautiful and she doesnt have to prove herself to no one but she has such a versatile voice i wish she would do smth like florida kilos again, not for the sound but the vocal delivery cause

Spoiler

fingertips, grandpa and sweet

definitely sound like the same vocal register.

she also used to do this thing with her voice that she kinda shortly hinted in Wild At Heart again which is the way she sings "but you know i never do just cause you keep me believing"

idk i just wish she would play with her voice again in Ocean Blvd but it doesn't look like it, i'm still gonna love to album tho i'm sure

Definitely don’t see the aesthetic being coquette.. most likely 60s, from the album cover inspiration, her photoshoot with W, the way she styled herself for the billboard women in music.. and definitely sonically.. the backing singers etc really chime in to that old soul sound. Even the shimmy shimmy koko bop reference 

 

I definitely see her bringing out the vintage dresses again 

i don't want to seem like i'm into or defending the coquette aesthetic, i'm just into fashion so i feel like i need to explain this 

 

The coquette aesthetic is very inspired by 60s style, with a mix of French and American aesthetics. it's extremely feminine and pretty much consists of the colors red, pink, and white (and sometimes a pastel blue) paired with gold jewelry. ribbons, braids, headbands, and curls are staple hairstyles and accessories. Obviously there are issues with it that i'm not going to get into, and with all "tiktok aesthetics" it's kind of merged and morphed into a bunch of things, though the basic "coquette" aesthetic is really just a feminine vintage aesthetic. The album photoshoot with Lana wearing bows, a cardigan with a lacy bra, and in her glamorous bedroom is something i could 100% see in a coquette inspiration portfolio/ pinterest board/ whatever.

Do you want children? 

Do you want to marry me? 

Do you want to run marathons at Long Beach, by the sea? 

I've got things to do like nothing at all,

I wanna do them with you...

Do you wanna do them with me...?

Yes I could get with the cardigan and bows from the album cover as falling in to the coquette kind of theme, but I think coquette is too narrow of an aesthetic overall for the album. 
For some reason I don’t see the aesthetic as so dainty- probably just because the songs are raw and aggressive in a way.

I 100% agree, the songs don't really fit that vibe at all lol
