Lana Del Rey - 'Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd'


RideOrDie

Recommended Posts

Oh ****, this album :ghostface: This is a true return to form, NFR, BB and COCC were cute but this is on another level. The amount of various instrumentation, experimentation, the switches, the choruses, the melodies... I'm floored :ghostface: I knew this album would be excellent based on three singles we got but it exceeded my expectations. My trinity is Kintsugi, Grandfather and Candy Necklace, I'm curious if this will change over time.

 

I will be deleting the interludes though... waste of time :deadbanana2:It's a perfect 14-track record.

It’s not really a reach to say Sweet sounds like an elevated BB track

Taco truck is such a flex on her own canon and mythology and in many ways of resignifying her own experiences and songs. The album as a whole feels this way too

Taylor would never have the capacity, intelligence or recklessness to make a Margaret. it truly baffles me the connections drawn to her

Or the vernacular she thinks she possesses

what instruments are in the album aside from piano?

Guitar, organ, synth, beats, some trippy noise effects towards the end, some flute-type sounding stuff that you’d hear in Honeymoon

Just wondering... what kind of relationship do Chuck, Charlie and Rob have with Lana's mother?

 

Because Lana is so close to them and it would be awkward if their relationship with her was just fine

I always imagined Lana brings some old things traumatized her in the past then Chuck and Charlie goes in silence looking at each other saying “oh here it goes again” 

 

pretty much what happens in my family gatherings :thing:

Not everyone praising Candy Necklace like this. The excellence seems undeniable at this point. I need this now.
