Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd - Pre-Release Thread: OUT March 24th, 2023

[Topanga 1,384]

Luckily for me I go feral over anything Lana does so the album could be god awful (even though we know it’s not) and I’d be still hypnotised 

[hotshot2am 18,795]

Yet this isn’t a work of reinvention. ‘Candy Necklace’ meanders through some familiar Lana themes, depicting Gatsby esque visions of high society.

 

This is from the Clash review. First glitch-pop and now "Gatsby esque visions of high society"? Did we listen to the same track?

Candy Necklace is definitely Gatsby/Fitzgerald esque for me. That part is accurate imo

The eternal struggle of an artist and the narrative of critics: to stay faithful to what made you famous or to « reinvent » yourself

I guess the Rockefeller mention is all they remembered so they thought this is a song about high society.

Candy Necklace to Let the Light In

Peppers is a prime example of why lyrics shouldn't be taken out of context. Reading the covid lyric I was kind of dreading it because it sounds so dumb on paper, but the chaotic fuck you energy of the song makes it work. She really doesn't give AF by the end of this album lmao 

 

[evalionisameme 13,899]

okay here’s the first mixed review-

There is a good album in there somewhere . There’s also a lot of filler, and times when it feels as though she crosses the line into parody

 

It is wordy – and those words are also delivered breathily and sometimes deliberately obscured. If you don’t get your ear around them in time, you simply won’t know what they are unless you can go back and/or consult the lyrics.

 

You’ll have to make your own mind up on this one: I suspect that’s exactly how she wants it.

so weird to be in this limbo of us having listented to the album but waiting for the rest of the world to do so when it comes out

Interesting, I have interpreted it as a song about her and her boyfriend at the time who was struggling with addiction. I guess I can see it with the dancing and Rockefeller lines and the strings in the instrumentals, but it's not what came into my memory when listening to it.

Oh, definitely not lyrically, I more so meant that the song gives off the vibes like something straight out of a Fitzgerald novel like Gatsby. Idk I could be way off but it's how I envision the song in my mind
