Chloe and the next 20th century is such a good album like I'm not joking. I think you all may be miserable haters. Unlike me who is a hater but in an intellectual way
#like 'everything must change but none of us here will see the promised land'#he references and utilizes musical trends from the 20th century throughout his whole discography but like Chloe is him reflecting on the#history of that music with the events it took place during and realizing that all of this is just a horrific cycle and he's raising his#daughter in the world that made him the way he is. as much as we can be like 'mason murders were bad but we got Lou reed' there's no way to#justify the tragedy even if it Eventually led to greatness because we keep doing it. honeybear also uses a lot of grand orchestration#similar to chloes for this purpose to obscurify his embarrassing stories and declarations of love but the storytelling on Chloe is#purposefully vague and NOT related to his personal life (aside from funny girl which is somehow not anachronistic despite it being about an#actress and being written in 2011) because he would rather resort to escapism 'give you the love songs' rather than insert himself#personally into his art because there's an extended history of that and its accompanied mess. ANYWAUS SORRY
