The baby line has two meanings. She means she met her husband/fiance “baby” and bc of their love maybe they might have a “baby”. Wordplay and the talk verses are influence by the Streets aka Mike Skinner who she references in Club Classics
Bro I lost it when dude said Bon Iver and Sampha should work together I’ve been thinking that since they were both on My Eyes by Travis Scott. A collab album of those two would be peak music
Fuck I love watching these album reviews. I don't know a single human irl that likes this album. Listening to other people gush over it, feels like I can finally gush about it too. This is my favorite album of all time.
makes me happy when someone loves "white light" as much as this; it shows you're understanding the whole album. imagine if "white light" was at the start of the album, it'd be almost off-putting....
This album is very personal and experimental, but it’s also very beautiful. I love this album so much and it’s my favorite that Lana has made. I think for you guys to enjoy Lana’s music more, you should start by listening to the lyrics a little more closely so that you can try to understand the nuance and storytelling rather than just focusing on whether you like the beat
it’s ok i didn’t get the hype around the album until i saw how it correlates with some of my favorite pop culture moments. i then started listening to the songs that went viral and i loved them. i will admit i only like the remixes of talk talk and von dutch😭
Im a fans of this album and this is my best and fav album ive ever heard. Its really hard to listen. It took me 2 years to listen to it and finally liked it
Lana said she wanted nobody to listen to this album except her fans because she just wanted to tell them where's she at in her life. Ocean blvd now man that's a masterpiece.
Black bathing suit in the end she talks about and also in a frustrated voice about how people talk about her ( her gaining weight ) and she says that they might talk about her body and how they know her better than she does and even tho they talk about her shes still making money from that talk so she just thanking them
please don't just listen to the album, you really have to take in the lyrics, maybe check out Genius while listening to it. that was a big reason this album wasn't as good to you lot as other albums have been. Lyrics (like Ocean Blvd are personal to her and if you know nothing about her life during that time period, it just ain't going to hit). Truthfully reading lyrics and getting a touch of Genius is a MUST for Ocean Blvd album. Otherwise I'm 100% sure it's going to go over y'alls heads.
When listening to Ocean Blvd (and any Lana album really) please read the lyrics while listening! Otherwise it's easy to miss the meaning, which is the main point of her music imo
This album can seem messy by the lyrics to people who really dont understand her backstory and love life in a way and whay happened in 2020-2021 but i feel like you guys should’ve have at least looked at the meaning behind the songs because this is like a first time lana really opens up about her life and she continues it with ocean blvd but truly this is an album that people should look into the lyrics yk cause its such a personal album.
