Thank you, yeah I think you may be right about the “All the things I couldn’t want for him” part, the “never stepped in” lyric from WW might also be alluding to some sort of childhood resentment.
 

As for your latter point, I think it’s both. This song is incredibly layered really I think of different things with each listen. 

Yes exactly! It really does have so much to it lol and now with the context of the lyrics of A&W that Lana shared, its starting to all make sense....that after Lana and Sean broke up, they were still hooking up (Tulsa Jesus Freak), while he was engaged to someone else without Lana knowing (A&W) and that their relationship ended because of their different views (Violets for Roses and Text Book)

 

I wonder if we'll learn even more on the rest of Ocean Blvd...

Sean really stole the spotlight from K didn't he

(This is also very interesting, as she is naturally blond, so this might also allude to her childhood as well as going blonde briefly during her relationship with Sean. I see this line as a question to both her father and boyfriend)

is she naturally blonde? arent the earliest photos of her with brunette hair? (the keds shoot early 2000's)

I believe she’s naturally blonde, but as she got older her hair became darker. 

 

 

 

 

it looks bleached here but it’s hard to tell

It’s kind of wild to think that the number of new tracks (not including covers) made for Chemtrails and BB (16 total) is the same number of new tracks we’re getting for this album cycle 

 

 

Wait how did you get 16? All 10 tracks on Chemtrails were unheard before the era, and 11 tracks on Blue Banisters were unheard before the era, + a reworking of "Thunder"?

the thing that's throwing me off though is that we're only getting 14 new tracks so either 16 was a typo or sis actually did get their math wrong

They're kind of an icon for making us use the 3 braincells this forum shares between all of us and try to decode their riddle

Years from now, when Lana has 30 albums, and we look back, COCC & BB will be regarded as her "worst", more so BB, with COCC having a cult following, similar to HM, but not as strong. They will be looked at as her two most divisive albums ever. Still, Lana's worst is better than some girls best. She's incapable of making truly "bad" music. A songstress supreme

[BartenderDeco 19,645]

imagine lana never used the honeymoon account

that would be horrible omg

[#FreeCandyNecklace 562]

Am I the only person who loves Arcadia and thinks it's one of Lana's best songs 

[cranekiss 9,728]

y'all remember when people unironically shipped larina that shit was crazy people are so weird 

[Daisy Hearted 1,727]

I fell in love with Lana again. I’m going back listening to all her albums. I finished Born To Die and Paradise and I’m gonna go on to Ultraviolence , probably today. What made me me fall in love with her essence and work was when I was listening to a playlist and Love came on. It reminded me of my current state in life and it made me feel as if I am right where I should be. This should have been a blog post LMAO
