Gave the queen some promo at the pizza place I ate at today

 
(excuse my messy handwriting; i was trying to give the good sis a mention before my brother left me behind ) 
 
Also, just realized:
 
"I catch a dollar in the wind and I buy a cup of coffee
There’s a place on Valentine that still charge ninety cents"    "To go nowhere in particular Back to work or the coffee shop"    Queen of coming full circle-- "Fordham Road" was recorded in 2005, when Lana herself was a kid "going nowhere in particular", wandering aimlessly to the coffee shop on Valentine-- and now, twelve years later in 2017, she's looking back on those days, and smiling for all the kids who are living it themselves. I love her so much <3

Here are some random editsssss (finally)

finally back with a new edit
 
 
 

Actually, at this moment I've already lost interest. But I'm sure that when the promotion starts (If there's any kind of promotion) my interest will increase to exaggerated levels and I'll be all wet. 

Ooo, Marina posted kind of a cryptic post on instagram. Following two other Neon Nature tour throwbacks, she posted the photo below captioned "1 day I'll write you a letter and I'll tell you everything."

I wonder what it could mean! I can't help but feel nostalgic by this post of her haunting yet intriguingly gorgeous tumblr posts she used to make back in the day of Electra Heart. The way the photo is filtered and the mysteriousness of the caption.. so evocative. I miss Electra dearly, she means a lot to me -- and I don't think I've ever related to someone more that I did her.. except for miss Holly Golightly. I'll be looking at this post for days wondering what it means while soaking up the Electra throwbacks it gives... A girl can dream.

A "Bel Air" themed doodle, based on her infamous "Paradise" album preview...

As the most famous person you've never heard of she really has established herself for the long term. Many times I Google Lana's name to see what may be happening currently. Often there is some review of a new or local artist somewhere and they will say this new singer has shades of Lana Del Rey or enters the same world inhabited by Lana Del Rey. It is now meant as a compliment, something to aspire too. It wasn't always that way.

I want lana to do a punk rock album with her screaming vocals like in Tired of singing the blues cus she actually really suits it

late reply, but thank you

Lana Del Ray front and back cover:
 

 

So, I've decided to not continue in my old thread but use a new one instead.
 
Here's my most recent project:
 
I created an "Essentials" mixtape for people who are interested in Lana and would like to know what she's all about. I included her most well-known and most popular songs. It's sort of like a GH album. Let me know what you guys think!
 
Booklet coming soon(er) or later...

She betta influence those nobodies 

Ok, the title is extra but I've been thinking about this a lot so here's my thought:
 
Lana Del Rey burst onto the pop scene in late 2011, time when music was dominated by electronic, dance pop music by astists such as Lady Gaga, Kesha, Katy Perry, etc. However the music industry needed a change, but it wasn't easy for Lana Del Rey to prove it. As she stated in a T Magazine interview back in 2012:
“I would play my songs, explain what I was trying to do, and I’d get, ‘You know who’s No. 1 in 13 countries right now? Kesha.’ ”
(source: https://tmagazine.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/02/09/a-star-is-born-and-scorned/?_r=0)
After years of trying, finally it was time for Lana Del Rey to get the recognition she deserved, and after the release of Video Games she became a the topic of every music blog around the world, causing controversy and all kinds of talk without really doing anything.
In an era when you HAD to appear in every tv show possible, had to have every radio station playing your song, had to wear the most outrageous costumes and had to get hit after hit, Lana Del Rey was able to sell over 5 million copies of Born to Die with minimal promo, no US hits (except for a remix) and almost no radio play. How is that possible ?
I'm not sure, but however she brought to the table a new sound, a new aesthetic and a whole new idea about what being a pop star really meant.
She took the music and fashion industry by storm, even being called the "anti-gaga" and was the most searched female of 2012 on google.
A big part of her popularity came for sure from all the controvesies she caused, her looks, SNL, glamourizing prostitution and death. But yet again she never really seeked for the attention of the masses, yet everybody was so interested in her and what she did, even when she wasn't doing anything
 
Her impact can still be seen today. Every new alternative/indie singer has cited her as an inspitation (Halsey, Melanie Martinez, Kali Uchis, Ryn Weaver, Troye Sivan, Dua Lipa, MØ etc.), her peers appreciate her music and draw inspitation from it (*cough* Taylor Swift's 1989 *cough* Selena Gomez's Revival *cough) and even some legends admire her work. She's really a trailblazer and if she hadn't been so criticized at the beginning of her career causing her to retire from the public eye to concentrate only on music, she would be one of the biggest artists out there right now.
 
That's all for now, sorry if it's quite a mess but i really just wanted to put this out there.. I'm gonna edit it later

Why a collab? It would be like Chanel feat. Walmart

@ 

Please do not spread the song/snippets through PMs. Warning points will be given to those caught doing so. Thank you x

(how many times do I have to ask this?)

Hope she accidentally posts the album cover while selecting all these pics to post

I love how vague and cryptic she always is it's hilarious

Does Lana care more about feminism than Space X and Tesla now? 

someone has to send her to the strip club with some alt rock band frontmen 

@this thread: You're boring me and I'm already dead

I really don't want it to leak. Can y'all just respect Lana this once?

Me: don't read this thread
Me to me: read this thread
