Lana Del Rey - Blue Banisters review

 

Blue Banisters is a song by singer Lana Del Rey that was released on May 20, 2021. It serves as one of the three lead singles off of her upcoming eighth studio album, Blue Banisters.

Blue Banisters is a midtempo indie song that talks about the singer's personal life. She opens up the song with a country reference singing:

There's a picture on the wall of me on a John Deere
Jenny handed me a beer, said, "How the hell did you get there?"

On the second verse, she mentions some flowers that were given to her by her former lover with the lyrics:

There were flowers that were dry, sittin' on the dresser
She asked me where they're from, I said, "A place I don't remember"
Oklahoma (oh)

The Oklahoma reference in this song is rumored to be about Lana's ex-boyfriend Sean Larkin, who works as a police officer in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Del Rey then moves on to talking about the man who loves to paint her life blue as she sings on the chorus:

Said he'd come back every May
Just to help me if I'd paint
My banisters blue
Blue banisters, ooh

First of all, I am a huge fan of Lana Del Rey's music. Her voice is so beautiful and elegant. The lyrics, production and the cover are all so good. Blue Banisters just proved that Lana Del Rey is ready to release a new era with her music.
