    It doesn’t really matter what you say
    Cause I ain’t gonna quit till the day I die
    I’ll be taking drugs, doing shots
    Making out in parking lots with any little boy I spot
    Baby, you can’t stop me, stop me no
    When I’m hot, I’m hot

    Still Corners is the musical project of songwriter/producer Greg Hughes and vocalist Tessa Murray. The London-based duo signed with record label Sub Pop in 2011 and issued their first full-length debut, Creatures of an Hour to favorable reviews.

    In October 2012, the band released a new single, "Fireflies", which was named 'best new track' byPitchfork Media.

    In February 2013, Still Corners announced that their second album, Strange Pleasures, would be released viaSub Pop in May 2013. The first single, Berlin Lovers, received widespread coverage.

  8. SoftcoreBabyface liked a post in a topic by yu16273947 in Do you think Lana has any psychiatric diagnoses?   
    Elizabeth was very special. She began at a young age to think like an adult. For example : To drink alcohol when you're feeling bad and bored and want to explore life. She did it very early but the question was why she did that. And I think many people (especially interviewers) had not idea why lana is singing about all this (dark?) stuff in her Born to Die Album. It's how some of yours already said : She felt into depressions where she couldn't get away from them because there is something that makes it difficult. Last year my mother fell ill. It was a nervous disease. Something like that Is dangerous believe me. And it was so dangerous that the police came at the end. She went to the hospital for three months and every evening I sat down, hearing to Lanas music and cried. It was terrible and I was kind of standing alone. I felt into these depressions with the time. But I knewed that I wasn't alone. And another question was : Why me ?. I mean why not one of my friends? When she retourned home I wasn't happy at all. I went to the psychologist because I felt wrong and not anymore so like before. But he was an ********, because he wanted so much money (also when the insurance payed it) just to listen and remembering my stories and also talking to my parents and in fact wasting my time. He didn't also even thought like I do. So what I want to say is : People are changing fast. Falling into Depressions too. But getting out not so easy and fast. And that I think a little bit like by lana. There were some events for example the death of a friend, that changed her so much that there became a war in her mind. Oh and sorry that I am a little bit to emotional and sensitive in this text.

    I dreamed only two times of Lana.
     
    So my dream :
     
    It was the day of my life. Lanas Concert in May. I was so excited and my goal was it to get an autograph and to touch her face like scorvi12 did. After or before the performance I saw her on the street and ran to her to get that what I wanted. I hugged her so tightly that I started to cry. But the crazy thing is now, that I cried in the dream and also in the "reality".
     
    Lana I love you :iheartlana:

    I agree. She's really lost all the feeling into the songs and they're too commercial now. Like, she changed them for the radio play. I miss the old days tbh

    Bio
    Sometimes the most rewarding discoveries are the ones that take you completely by surprise. Foxes is one of those discoveries. Arriving unheralded with her Neon Gold Records’ debut ‘Youth’ late last year, it wasn’t long before the song’s resplendent synths, industrial percussion and by-turns-searing-and-soaring vocal were the talk of the town.
    Foxes is in actual fact just one – Louisa Rose Allen. The Southampton-born 22 year-old followed her big sister to London the day she turned 18. She tried her hand at studying music but dropped out when she realised it wasn’t the studying part that she enjoyed. With ‘Youth’ (and its mournful b-side ‘Home’, and resulting remixes) having so far garnered over a million combined Soundcloud and YouTube plays, and 1,250 Hypemachine ‘likes’ between them, it’s unlikely she’ll be heading back to class anytime soon.
    Now she returns with its eagerly awaited follow up, the Warrior EP, led by the dual-pronged attack of lead songs ‘Warrior’ and ‘White Coats’. Foxes will release the Warrior EP on 1st July via Neon Gold Records on 7-inch vinyl and digital EP.

    PARTITION
    In "Partition", the camera takes us inside a palatial estate that almost looks like it could have been the setting for the "Born to Die" video. See the exterior and interior below:

     
    In the first of several scenes curiously similar to ones out of "National Anthem", we find Mrs. Carter seated at an immaculately set table, barely noticed by her rapper husband peering over his newspaper:

     
    In her mind, she embarks on a sexual fantasy. Again she channels Rosalita:

     
    Her rapper husband feels up her leg in a vehicle:

     
    She puts on a show for him, donning a sequined flapper headdress like Lizzy wears in this photo:

     
    Silhouette techniques like something out of "Summertime Sadness" are employed:

     
    Beyoncé pole dances like Lana in Tropico over a sexy French spoken interlude like in "Carmen":

     
    Like A$AP Rocky in "National Anthem", her rapper husband watches her performance voyeuristically, smoking a cigar:

     
     
    JEALOUS
    Beyoncé is a jealous, jealous, jealous gurrrrrl. This video begins in the same estate reminiscent of "Born to Die" as in "Partition". In one scene, the former Miss Knowles is draped over a pinball machine like Lana in "Ride":

     
    In another we see a "tunnel lined with yellow lights":

     
     
    ROCKET
    Like "Blue Jeans", "Rocket" opens on a black & white close-up of a reflection of the artist's face in a ripple of water:

     
    Later in each video we watch the artist submerge her face in water in slow motion:

     
     
    MINE
    Like Lana in the poster for Tropico, we find Beyoncé re-enacting Mary in the Pieta:

     
    Also, is that another Shaun Ross cameo?
     
     
    XO
    In "XO", Beyoncé orchestrates perhaps the largest NYC land grab since Dutch settlers bought Manhattan Island from Native Americans for 24 bucks, stealing the famed amusement destination from the Queen of Coney Island herself:

     

     

     

     
     
    ***FLAWLESS & SUPERPOWER
    Since I can't find any Lana plagiarism in either of these videos, I'm just gonna go ahead and assume they must be borrowed from the "Dark Paradise" and "Cola" videos that never materialized. @@Ultraviolence Watch these. One of them may be the closest thing you'll ever get to your precious "Cola" video.
     
     
    HEAVEN
    Here we have the biggest plot heist since Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds ripped off Gremlins. In "Heaven", Beyoncé portrays a woman mourning her deceased female bff in a series of flashbacks. Sound familiar? Of course it does. It's the plot of Lana's "Summertime Sadness" video. Not content to copycat one Lana video, "Heaven" filches from a few. A shot in a church mirrors the chapel in "Born to Die":

     
    In a flashback, Beyoncé's girlfriend sprays alcohol at a campfire party echoing scenes in "Ride":

     
    And we see her and her gal pal riding in a car like Lana & Jaime King:

     
    She only barely tries to disguise her copying Lana's recitation of the Lord's Prayer in Tropico by saying it in Spanish. Oh, and speaking of Spanish, here's Rosalita yet again:

     
     
    BLUE
    Sure, there's another "tunnel lined with yellow lights":

     
    The sequined bra is back:

     
    And she evokes Lizzy's showgirl style:

     
    But most saliently, this song is about Beyoncé's, uh, baby Blue love, the black baby daughter she had with a rapper. What a blatant "National Anthem" ripoff!

     
     
    GROWN WOMAN
    Last but not least, the video for "Grown Woman" consists of home footage of Beyoncé's childhood performances, a clear homage to Lana's DIY videos.
     
     
     
  21. yu16273947 liked a post in a topic by evilentity in Is "Beyoncé" just a big rip-off of Lana Del Rey?   
    Beyoncé is certainly no stranger to accusations of plagiarism in her videos. Considering the large number of videos comprising her eponymous visual album, it would not be surprising if some of them were less than original. Did she copy Lana Del Rey?
     
    Compare the album cover design and font to a Paradise box set booklet:

    With Tropico, the "Ride" video, the "Blue Velvet" promo for H&M, and the "Song of Myself" promo for L'Officiel set to the intro to "Cola", Lana released some sort of video for almost every song on Paradise. One could argue that even the idea of releasing videos for the entire album is derivative. Now let's look at those videos.
     
     
    PRETTY HURTS
    Much like the opening bars of "Ride", the opening bars begin with the image of Beyoncé singing into a slender microphone, wearing a mostly white dress against sparkly blue stage curtains:

     
    The song's themes—eating disorders and the dark side of being a beauty queen—are straight out of "Boarding School", "Brite Lites", and "Pin-Up Galore". Indeed, here we see Mrs. Carter in Ms. Grant's short-cut meth-haired beauty queen style complete with sash accessory:

     
    Beyoncé also replicates Lana's arched back & cupped hand underwater poses from the "Blue Jeans" video:

     
    She not only borrows Tropico co-star Shaun Ross, but doubles down on the African albinism by casting Diandra Forrest. To top it off, Beyoncé even has the audacity to lift Lizzy's iconic trademark sequined bra:

     
     
    GHOST
    In "Ghost", Sasha Fierce is not herself, assuming the identity of Lana's Rosalita alter ego from her "Song of Myself" video for L'Officiel:

     
     
    HAUNTED
    The "Countdown" singer's video for "Haunted" begins with a hauntingly familiar countdown straight outta one of Lizzy's DIY "Gramma" videos:

     
    Then in true diva style, Beyoncé makes her male servant light her cigarette for her like a little bitch like Barrie at a Lana show:

     
    The whole video imitates the imitated Lynchian style of Lana's "Blue Velvet" promo for H&M complete with the requisite Doppelgangers:

     
    Yet it borrows scenes from "National Anthem" & Tropico. Black guys gambling? Check.

     
    Strippers giving lapdances to white businessmen? Check.

     
    People in whiteface? Check.

     
    Bubbles? Check.

     
    Originality? ...Anyone? Bueller?
     
     
    DRUNK IN LOVE
    In addition to lyrics that sound like a first draft of "Brite Lites" ("Flashing lights, flashing lights, you got me faded, faded, faded"), this intoxicating concoction's potency is poured from "National Anthem", where Lana grinds on another snifter-wielding rapper, A$AP Rocky:

     
     
    BLOW
    The cotton candy confection of the music masks Lana-like lyrics ("Every time I close my eyes", "I'ma let you be the boss of me", "Give me that daddy long stroke" and an interlude in French) in a video easily summarized as "pin-up girls at the roller derby". We also see a close-up of a disco ball a la her DIY "Yayo" video:

     
    And Beyoncé perched on the hood of a car in a fuck-me pose like Lana in the "Born to Die" video:

     
    In this case, we're lucky that "Blow" doesn't Soileau. Bradley sucks.
     
     
    NO ANGEL
    In an inversion of Lana's "angels forever" refrain, the "Halo" songstress proclaims, "You're no angel either, baby." She asks, "Tell me do you want to ride?" Like Lana in "Ride", Beyoncé is Queen of the Gas Station, knocking off Lana's hot long curly hair and cut-off jeans look. Unlike Lana, at least she's responsible enough to only be figuratively smokin' at the pump.

     
    We see chicks on the back of motorcycles:

     
    Tacky word bling:

     
    And pole dancers making it rain:

     
     
    YONCÉ
    In "Yoncé", she continues the ghetto theme, banging around with her gang of ghetto girls like Lana in Tropico:

     
    Who does Beyoncé think she is to appropriate all these signifiers of ghetto culture from gangsta Nancy Sinatra? Rather uppity if you ask me.
