I’m still in shock about the hate the boards had for Sweet when the album came out

 

i still think it’s one of her most important and beautiful love songs.

 

the lyrics and vocal performance are so thought out and impactful.

 

still my fav (with let the light in) from this album.

 

 

 

Sweet was the first non-single that I got obsessed with. I just could not believe the beauty, and how a lot of people just didn't see it. It's an amazing and as you said important love song.

This entire album should’ve sounded like Buddy’s Rendezvous imo. Too many churchy piano ballads. This church girl ass album…

It needed that and some Honeymoon-style production.

only song from this album I don't go back to is Fishtail and that is ALL on that muffled ass mastering/production/mixing WHATEVER IT WAS it ruined that song for me fr bc it legit sounds like the Zodiac leak.

My feelings about the specific preacher aside, I actually liked the sermon interlude

I still think about those heart shaped boxes she was gonna give away

Listening to the Kintsugi instrumental all by itself in a gently lit room is such a calming, wonderful experience. A beautiful song and the whole thing just oozes peace. Oh Lana the eternal gifts you give us!

sometimes I forget that this album was her most recent one cus there's just so much material being covered in it. in a way, it's still so fresh. 

originally came in to mention the genius of AW, but this album is just so special.

Happy Birthday, dearest Did You Know That There's A Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd! I still remember the day when it was released and Candy Necklace blew my mind! I was that ashtonished that for a short period of time it surprassed Honeymoon and became my favorite Lana album of all times! Such a beautiful work of art from the start to beginning. What an emotional rollercoaster! It has so many amazing moments such as the singles like the title track and A&W. Brilliant and shocking perosnal lyric moments from Fingertips and Kintsugi. Stunning melodies from Let The Light In and Margaret, The Grants and Grandfather. Great bangers like Taco Truck, Fishtail and Peppers. Just many awesome moments. The whole photoshoot was so gorgeous as well like all the album cover art variants, so intimate and cozy. One of her best albums. This album is a multiple Grammy winner in my eyes. I love it so much. Such an incredible album! This era was so fun as well, so many concerts and magazine photoshoots, also event appearances where she looked absolutely stunning. The Grammy campaign period was so cool to witness. Ocean Blvd was also the era when I joined LanaBoards, so many special memories for sure! Have the happiest Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd day, everyone!
