The song definitely carries a lot of meaning but it shouldn’t have been a song on an album imo. At least not in this shape or form. It easily could have been restructured into a wonderful piece of music but the way it is right now? Easily interlude material… Edited March 18, 2023 by fishtails Added spoilers 1

Lust for Life 5. Norman Fucking Rockwell 6. Honeymoon 7. Ocean Blvd 8. Chemtrails 9. Blue Banisters I mean I definitely appreciate it from a lyrical standpoint but when I listen to music, I always pay attention to melody and production first and then lyrics. The song's production and the "non-existent" melody are what throw me off cause it isn’t particularly intriguing imo. But that really just boils down to subjectivity. Some people care more about lyrics… My ranking on the bottom is the same. Ob is better than cocc/bb but worster than the Rest of her albums 1

Easily interlude material… Spoiler is it going to be a track that gets played frequently? probably not because it is more like a spoken word. but i just hate to see the comments of people shitting on fingertips completely especially given the material covered within the song sure, say that you’re not a fan of the track. but to say it “doesn’t belong on the record” is just tasteless Edited March 18, 2023 by fishtails Added spoilers 2

In my opinion, the song wouldn’t get nearly as much shit if she scrapped it from the tracklist and saved it for a second poetry project.

Fingertips Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 I've listened to the album 5/6 times now, I'm confident this will be my official ranking. Candy Necklace will probably push #4 and #5 down one or just #5. I can't imagine my top three changing. Spoiler 1. Fingertips 2. Kintsugi 3. Let the Light In 4. Fishtail 5. Grandfather... 6. Taco Truck x VB 7. Did you know that there's a tunnel under ocean blvd? 8. A&W 9. Sweet 10. Peppers 11. The Grants 12. Margaret 13. Paris, Texas 14. JB Interlude 15. Judah Interlude 7 "You can't be a muse and be happy, too. You can't blacken the pages with Russian poetry and be happy." - Blue Banisters Quote 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.
