  1. Since the album is coming I’m manifesting an album trailer and more movie soundtrack songs. It just feels like the perfect press or promo that allows for exposure while also just being able to chill cus it’s for a movie

  3. “We’re all gonna marry the love of our lives” well, “you’re” but lets spread good vibes
  4. I dunno like I don't care but I can just feel something coming
  5. The strings as the bridge ends on Young & Beautiful always echo and resonate dazzlingly, and very few people realize this when they try to sing it live. Also, the father tell me if you can lyric, that sort of respects the fundamental laws of godhood in the bridge, when she says if you can, not, "that you can". the West Coast single version has a higher pitch to it's backing vocals than the album version and for me gives it separate feels. White Dress' vocals are just too fucking hauntingly beautiful, and are a lot harder to emulate/ sing than a lot of people realize to capture the same effect and precise sound. It's such an intentional whisper and intentional choice. like, the key is almost as if transposed by it a bit but not really that makes sense. Candy Necklace being a lot more dynamic and engaging after a good while of more subdued music from previous albums. the way she sings Rockafella is sung flutteringly beautiful and perfectly. the actual option of thinking about how Religion can be dichotomous in it's meaning/tone at the same time just gives prime mutable zodiac sign energy. the way Freak just spills out feeling like an actual movie showdown, final boss in video games energy. it sounds like the world put in inverted colors mode. it sounds so fucking inevitable. the wind instruments billowing in it just make it sound so epic about it too. the way her vocals sound like slow curtains billowing that add to the songs inherent vampirism. and then the ad lib vocals towards the last part of it. take it to the back if ya really wanna talk, then to the submerging feel of it at the end. masterpiece. the way Sad Girl sounds like an actual old church hymn song that's been revamped for a vegas show, it's made a lot more apparent at it's bridge. she's singing about a gangster a lot more earnestly here and I love how it's skewed. the level of almost, worship regarding him is like a one-two punch at how she elevates him to this platform as she positions herself in contrast as well is a good writing technique. since it's ultraviolence it makes you wonder about the overall frame of mind about it, but it works so well when it comes to the storytelling aspect towards that dynamic and archetype. it's a good revelator of a song that probably preludes black bathing suit's creation when it comes to public image and being able to play with it. pretty sure there's a lot more but I'll stop there for now.
  6. Hmm just wanted to actually say that on the other side, no one in particular but just in general, people can be really annoying when it comes to music or listening/choosing to music to listen to. I get that people have that right ofc, and if it’s not for them, then it’s not, simple, but more like, people can be really like up in their asses about it, making it personally cultish for those that they like, lowkey this is lanaboards self aware lol but like, harder. or more like, when people listen to it, they’re like ah well, this has nothing to do with me so I immediately don’t like it, making it less about the actual understanding of the song or whatever’s being shared. Understandable to a degree, but sometimes it’s like a bit much. love how there’a an eagerness towards connection, and affliating w who or not w personality, but it can just be weird when an individual’s sorta sucked up and swallowed by someone/music group that probably doesn’t even know they exist. Also, likability matters a lot more to people than the actual music sometimes, so it’s like, maybe the plot might’ve gotten lost at some point.

  10. I remember thinking the main overarching theme of this record would be renewals, but I'm wondering what self-preservation might come into play as a concept in it to be too. info that she mentioned to cut away from the noise of uncertainty, what I remember is, the songs are stripped back, don't want them half-baked. simpler. the stagecoach performance songs still ringing towards renewal personally. she added change? on lfl last minute. california on nfr. she's definitely had more than enough time from her secondary update announcement on the album to think about more of what she wants it to be like, at least a bit better than before. from an average person's perspective. i think objectively, a good thing would be to do a regroup, re-listen of what she's done w things on her own personal level, and move from there if she hasn't already. I'm perfectly content with waiting and it's nbd for me because life, but I do think she should follow her gut instincts, and maybe show a bit more leadership for the fans towards her project. the shows recently are great for building fan momentum, so it would be a good easier time for an update as well.
  11. I think a lot of it can really just be warped online, and definitely not to dismiss the terrible things happening, but from person to person. Unless you know people in the govt or military etc however that goes, you've just got a lot of factors to have to maze thru public opinion, propaganda, waves of hate coming and going from both sides so on. I think it just defeats the purpose, and if you're another average person like a lot of people are, we don't really get to keep up to a practical point where we're all living our lives to the best of our ability on our own. I think people need to sort of just remember to interact with others as if they were in the same physical space. You wouldn't really be acting in this sort of way in person, and odds are, you might just have a discussion and come to an agreement of where your views are, and what points you agree or disagree, but then what? You're going to flamebait, or slap someone with a glove? Like no. A lot of this is above our pay grade, obviously we know what wrong's happening, but we shouldn't really let it get to the point of impracticalities. It's more than upsetting to the point of having to shut off, and it might be sad to say, but for a lot of people, we can't just glue ourselves to the screens, get mad at people, and then what? have our bodies be affected of stress to having a conniption? It's good to reflect on your values, but also, realistically speaking, move past the virtue signaling and into actual helping of the causes, it needs to be calm. what needs to be done practically? how do you also foster service to yourself to be able to do that for others? the way this is, is truly a storm. you might not be first responder qualified, but you can help volunteer what little you might have as an average person trying to go about your life. or, if you actually have major influence, do what you think is comfortable for you. that's what she's doing. and given her history of being ganged up on online, move past the entitlement and it's actually a big thing that she wanted to at least speak about it in a way that she feels comfortable with. at the end of the day, from our perspective of people that ofc want to see things get better bc we're not shit people, those are the only responsible options that we can take. forget about what the people on the internet might want you to react and respond to, or the keyboard warriors (I'm self aware about this, but the motive is really to just get practical about this) wanting to spar it out. be smart, do what you think is comfortable and right for you. it's a heavy situation, I get it, but it's kind of a weird privilege to shame people for not knowing the entire thing, when we all honestly have lives that we might need to actually focus on and do our best to work on our own lives. that's not the way towards negotiations and diplomacy for better outcomes and even awareness. these tactics don't help anyone. and for what? so you can get brownie points online? making good points and spreading awareness of things is great, but don't lose the plot. it's good that she thought about speaking about this entire thing if at all. the truth is, I myself can't really grasp the situation past the heaviness and the scale of it all just happening, I know myself to either, actually do something better in person with no fanfare, or try to just log out because even if it's far away, it's genuinely upsetting and even more knowing I can't personally do anything to change things for the better from a practical standpoint. we're all dealing with our own things and it's good to at least remember that to some degree. and it's good to support however we can, but being yelled at online doesn't really help anyone for anything lasting of good. not a lot people if most, don't think like that, and we can't just demonize or shame them to the point of bullying to do so. I don't think that's the way to bring people to your cause. it might not be the best of answers that many people wanted to hear from her, but at least she spoke about it using her celebrity status. how that goes into the machine/ atmosphere/ world stage and what it has to do with us, is a completely different story. and it sounds shitty to say but, after a certain point, what can someone personally actually do? find your time to better the cause if you have it, donate if you have the means, be more human about your approach to spreading awareness sugar, not vinegar when it comes to newer people. you'll be surprised at how good people can genuinely be, but acting like you're foaming at the mouth waiting to fight with someone online etc. doesn't foster trust and connection. and then you blame and pigeonhole people as your enemies bc they didn't get to process it in their own way. this is all being done for the sake of people, human lives. the clearer you can be in your person, the better service you can be at being more efficient in helping. the chaos only serves as a distraction from people who actually have the power to do something about it, but because many people are acting like pawns, it just means that they can get away with more. so what do you think that means when it comes to the efficacy and directions of wanting to make a more lasting awareness and move towards actual betterment for everyone? don't forget the actual plot, and might be a highly unpopular opinion, but be smart about your passion and don't lose yourself in the process.
  12. I remember watching the new mean girls movie not knowing it was a musical, well, had low expectations for it anyway but, we were all kinda just laughing at it in disbelief and I still remember that watching experience making it so much better than what the movie actually was. some people decided to even just walk out which made us laugh a bit harder
