Sweet Carolina is actually dedicated for her sister Caroline (Chuck), whom was pregnant during the making of the song so that’s why she says “baby blues”, if she ever has post-birth depression, lana will be there for her. Also, living legend, nectar of the gods, thunder and Cherry blossom were all unreleased tracks before this album, from around 2014-2017 and dealer feats the last shadow puppet member, miles Kane

[@YupOkayThx]

I actually really like how long the album is. She's referencing old styles of music in the production and instrumentation, so it makes sense that the songs would be comparable in structure and length to songs from the time. An hour long album is not unheard of. It's just not as common today, where the trend in current pop music is 2-3 minute songs. Also, I just have to say, I don't think any of us were prepared for "Dealer."

[@2MakeALongStoryShort]

I hate how songs have gotten so short, they feel incomplete. this album length was pretty standard just a decade ago.

This album is utterly flawless. I cannot choose a favourite track. But, God, I will forever get goosebumps when she sings the line “mail me when you get the blues” in Black Bathing Suit. We do not deserve this woman’s voice - it is just beyond incredible.

[@matthewmilligan8306]

Living legend sounds like Lana is singing to her future unborn child. The title track and sweet Carolina have themes of having the baby blues. Cherry Blossom is a lullaby. The album as a whole is Lana wanting love and a family and sisterhood getting her through the rough times after she realizes she’s back to square one after another relationship falls apart

[@michellebastiani6470]

When I first heard some Snippets of this album I started thinking she was pregnant. But actually she just became an aunt so maybe it's that.

[@marlonvond]

Cherry blossom is for her future child, living legend is dedicated to a friend of her, and sweet carolina is for her sister that is having baby blues

[@matthewmilligan8306]

@@katelynsandoval7550 yeah but that was back in 2014 and the fact that it’s on this album now could be something deeper than just randomly putting it on the album because she had nothing else. The title track has the lyrics “give me children, take away my pain and paint my banisters blue” so the lyrics of Living Legend could mean something totally different in the context of this album. The title track is the title track for a reason. When I really think about the lyrics on the title track it could give us a sign as to why these songs are on this album now. Sweet Carolina says writing credits from her sister and dad but that does not mean the lyrics are about her sister. The lyrics could actually be from her sister and father to Lana and Lana is just simply singing them as the narrator. Cherry Blossom is a lullaby and again the lyrics could be interpreted completely different than how they were originally intended. She talked about being annoyed that those songs leaked bc it’s difficult to explain why they’re on this album now and that could possibly be the reason. If we never knew those songs existed and they were on this album they would tie in to the themes of the title track. When it comes to living legend people automatically assume she’s singing to a child bc of the lyrics “Blackbirds will sing in the same key As you play in the shoes that I bought you And sweet baby Jane don't know a thing About my songs” and “you never cared about my name” and the wahhhh wahhh part she does at the end is so torched and emotional. Im not saying im right it’s just a theory but it all stems from the title track. Her sister is pregnant and Lana has something missing and this time around it’s not just because of a man this time.. it’s much deeper

I LOVE it too!!! It has such a classic, timeless sound. It's hard to write songs like that, and we rarely hear that type of song these days. It's beautiful.

[@Aurem15]

Chery Blossom is a lullaby, that's why it's so stripped down. Also, CB, Nectar and Living legend are from 2013 Ultraviolence sessions. Thunder and Dealer are from the Last shadow puppets' scrapped collab album, the same one California was from. Sweet Carolina is for her sister Chuck, and it has writing credits from her family, which makes the lyrics quite touching knowing it was by herself, her dad, her sister Chuck and a family friend.

[@zachbaillargeon2888]

Perfectly said by BILLBOARD: "Few new artists of the 2010s emerged so fully formed, with a voice and image beyond their years. To her devoted fans, she inspires near-religious fervor, like a millennial Stevie Nicks with the aura of Princess Diana. At her best, a Lana Del Rey song is intangible, like magic -- a fully realized world that feels like it’s always existed."

[@Estartae]

Lana could’ve been speaking metaphorically, but I’m 99.999% sure she’s in recovery and substance use is a big part of her past. Side note that’s not needed for this album, but I thought it was interesting: In “hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me” she talks about “serving up God in a burnt coffee pot for the triad” that always reminded me of being of service at meetings by making coffee, greeting, and setting up chairs etc. I don’t know if that was what she was referring to that’s just my interpretation.

[@incie]

no you're right! she had a problem with alcohol and during her last instagram live she said that she attends meetings(probably AA). btw i love LOVE that song 🤧

[@paradisetropico4977]

I think you are spot on... yesterday in her livestream on Honeymoon she referred to herself as "alcoholic" and then corrected herself to "recovering alcoholic" which I had not heard her admit to in years

[@incie]

@@paradisetropico4977 i was so shocked when she said the word alcoholic because like you said she hasn't mentioned it in a while. also did you catch when she literally said "my breakup with Sean"? she was very open + honest

I dont mind too much people comparing albums, I mean certain albums just set the bar for people for albums to come. Not in a way to say that an album is bad because you don't like it as much as another, but I think it's fine to say that you don't like one album as much as another.

Violets For Roses and Nectar of the Gods are my favorite songs. Can't stop listening. The queen gave us not one but two perfect albums this year. 👸 👑

[@gh0ulgirl]

nectar of the gods was written for ultaviolence, the chorus even calls back to cruel world, but that’s why the lyrics are kinda dark and it mentions heroin, it’s because it belongs to a different era of hers also, sweet caroline is dedicated to her sister who’s name is caroline. the songs deals with postpartum depression which is why she sings about the baby blues, as her sister just had her first child
