I loved the album last night but I didn’t finish it until midnight and I’m 30 years old and that’s past my bedtime..

 

But this album is really making my wig fly off on 3rd and 4th listen today. 

 

so many masterpieces. We have truly been given a gift.

I always need at least a month to solidify an albums place in my ranking tho. Cause it either grows on me or I lose the new release excitement and it goes down😭 I love so many songs on this album though I think it can only grow on me more

[Crimson and Clover 22,485]

I swear if she sings Blue Jeans instead of Peppers or something on tour

& possible musical references in lyrics imo:

"thats how the light gets in" - Leonard Cohen, Anthem - Kintsugi 

"I'm folk I'm jazz I'm blue I'm green" - Blue In Green, Miles Davis - Grandfather

more of a reach but maybe "on the stairs, Ella Fitzgerald in the air" about Stairway To The Stars by Ella Fitzgerald - Fishtail

 

 

n then obviously there's the Tommy Genesis , PT & Grandfather samples,,

as well as all the times she sampled/referenced her own work but i cba to type these out like when you know you know.

 

 

I'm probably missing some so if you think of another quote a girlie & help me complete the lists..I think Kintsugi might have some other ones ?

 

Spoiler

I rly doubt she’s intentionally referencing Enya in fishtails lol but Caribbean blue is one of my favourite songs to feel… not violent to 🥲 so in my mind it fits 🥲

sometimes I think people just like visual eras more than the actual music which is why UV stans are so hard to please….if Ocean Blvd actually had visuals it would definitely be at the top of people’s list….cause the music is objectively better than NFR. I said what I said
