  1. Lana is such a unique case in that many people seem to love her unreleased vastly more than her released… I heard playing dangerous in a makeup ad the other day- wtf? So random
  2. They’re real but Patrick stem edits Just ignore the word fake it means Patrick
  3. A YouTube rip with strings and piano with the original production lowered but it could work in a messy way like thunder- I like it despite the obvious laziness

    Poppy

    She does it in secret but was exposed on someone’s IG We saw the pics at a party
  5. I mean it was made in late 2014, I guess it depends on how you look at it- originally she was planning to expand on UV and those songs certainly are more in line with that than what is on honeymoon.
  6. That’s not what some of the insiders have stated They stated specifically that this wasn’t for Honeymoon

    And in revenge we let @1000Times album flop back to the Costa checkout Charles Like humble yourself girl
  8. There is no leaked honeymoon version, that’s a mistake- that’s the UV version with the loud drums Honeymoon version is unleaked
  9. It’s not nostalgia- earthquakes doesn’t have the same chord stems as dozens of the others from the last couple of eras It’s all opinion but we love an unmuffled vocal I am kinda biased though because I find all of jacks peaks with Lana just plain bland except the chemtrails title track which is very lovely and cutely arranged Jim is fun to listen to sometimes soloed
  10. The way something will probably be on dbree by the time these shows even happen.. a chaotic mess

    Aw, like what you want dude- no album is for everyone sadly
  12. People were converted by this album? what would they be influenced by on this album? I’m genuinely not trying to be sarcastic- it’s not a new sound, just her trying out how to blend unconventional song structures into her world. we will see I guess
  13. A Uk top 30 hit Not that it matters but it shocks me
  14. We fighting over lorde and the album now? It’s released, it’s dead, it’s over- bring on the tour

  16. An interlude is bigger than any song post UV
  17. more interestingly 10. National Anthem Released: 2012 Official Singles Chart peak: Number 92 Total UK chart sales: 320,000 Money is the anthem, god you're so handsome. On Lana's big 2012 summer single (the more propulsive demo version is the biggest single she never released), she leaned into the enigmatic allure of celebrity for the first time; spinning a tale of scandalous Page Six romance told against the flash of paparazzo cameras and devotion to the American flag. Its music video, casting Lana as the Jackie to A$AP Rocky's JFK, is perhaps the ultimate distillation of her first album persona; corrupted, beautiful and totally dedicated to her man. 9. Stargirl Interlude (with The Weeknd) Released: 2016 Official Singles Chart peak: Number 73 Total UK chart sales: 336,000 Despite being less than 2 minutes long, Stargirl Interlude has become one of Lana's most popular tracks in recent years, thanks to TikTok. With the recent success of The Weeknd adding Ariana Grande into a remix of Starboy single Die For You, it doesn't seem a stretch to imagine a fuller version of Stargirl arriving at some point. 8. Don't Call Me Angel (with Ariana Grande and Miley Cyrus) Released: 2019 Official Singles Chart peak: Number 2 Total UK chart sales: 357,000 While it was perhaps surprising to see Lana team up with Ariana and Miley on this Max Martin cut - she had been steadily dipping her toe into more commercial chart prospects for a while, hooking up with both Martin and Benny Blanco on tracks for Lust For Life - the biggest shock on Don't Call Me Angel is how the song stops in its tracks to accommodate her, proving that even when she was masquerading as a Big Pop Girl (Don't Call Me Angel is still Lana's highest-peaking song in the UK), Lana Del Rey will always be Lana Del Rey. 7. Doin' Time Released: 2019 Official Singles Chart peak: Number 42 Total UK chart sales: 372,000 A cover of a track originally released by ska-pop band Sublime, Doin' Time is by far the biggest single to come from Lana's confident and assured Norman F**king Rockwell! album, which properly established her as her generation's greatest living songwriter (ironic, then, that Doin' Time is a cover). 6. West Coast Released: 2014 Official Singles Chart peak: Number 21 Total UK chart sales: 394,000 Ultraviolence is Lana's magnum opus, and bruised and brilliant sophomore records that abandons the aggressively enshrined aesthetic of Born To Die and, track by track, slowly strips the Lana Del Rey character away. It's lead track, West Coast, is most indicative of this; helping Lana set fire to her old persona and leave New York, setting out on the open road. 5. Blue Jeans Released: 2011 Official Singles Chart peak: Number 32 Total UK chart sales: 505,000 With hindsight, it's easy to see just how Born To Die and its singles helped to influence the ebb, flow and feel of pop music for the next decade - but Blue Jeans is a succinct reminder of the sometimes under-played effect hip-hop played on Lana's early career. Indeed, her flow, bars and cadence have been just an influential on mumble-rap and SoundCloud-core rappers as they have pop stars like Halsey, Billie Eilish and Selena Gomez. 4. Born To Die Released: 2012 Official Singles Chart peak: Number 9 Total UK chart sales: 757,000 One criticism levied against Lana early in her career was that she was too overly morose. And, yeah, we have to give it to her - Born To Die isn't what you'd listen to for a little pick me up. But fresh off the success of Video Games, Born To Die burnt a very depressing trail back into the UK Top 10, establishing Lana as one of the biggest breakout stars of her time. 3. Young and Beautiful Released: 2013 Official Singles Chart peak: Number 23 Total UK chart sales: 813,000 A swooning orchestral masterstroke, Young and Beautiful was originally meant for Lana's Paradise EP, but found its home on the original soundtrack for Baz Luhrmann's adaption of the Great Gatsby. And so it should; its focus on the trap of materialism perfectly melds to the film's themes of lost innocence in a world that's obsessed with image and status, and how they will both, inevitably, fade. 2. Video Games Released: 2011 Official Singles Chart peak: Number 9 Total UK chart sales: 1.4 million Quite simply one of the most brilliant and influential debut singles of the 21st century, Lana Del Rey entered the culture as a fully-formed being, with a definitive point of view. The fact that it was also a chart success here - Number 9 peak and over 92 million streams to date - is a testament to Lana reading the temperature of pop music in the early 10s and setting out defy odds and subvert expectations, something she still does to this day. 1. Summertime Sadness (Lana Del Rey vs Cedric Gervais) Released: 2012 Official Singles Chart peak: Number 4 Total UK chart sales: 2 million In its original form, Summertime Sadness is evocative and stirring. Its big rave-up remix courtesy of Cedric Gervais certainly sands down its edges (just take the tracks Sapphic music video, cut up and edited out of all meaning) but was an unqualified success. Up until Don't Call Me Angel, it was Lana's highest-peaking single in the UK, and with over 2 million total UK chart sales and a staggering 158 million streams, it diluted Lana's image and message for the masses brilliantly. The story goes that Lana wasn't even aware of the remix's existence until she heard it on the radio one day. For an artist who has never willingly forsaken her artistry for commercial gain, you can certainly believe it.
  18. Since when is gods and monsters a Uk top 40 hit and west coast at 21 on the charts- I’ve seen this chart before and it wasn’t this- honestly feel like I’ve stepped into a parallel universe. https://www.officialcharts.com/artist/7180/lana-del-rey/

    @1000Times aka charli ain’t leaking shit, we love her but she only gives us existing song stems
  20. Oh I’m not saying it will happen and again I think there’s a difference between what’s on Lanas records and amp clipping? But even still clipping is just bad practice generally and her engineers get paid to reduce the likelihood of this when recording her vocals.
  21. I mean you can research yourself- I agree the songs take precedent but again do you want to damage speakers you’ve bought for a song you like? Clipping occurs when you’re overpowering or overloading a signal which is not healthy for electronics
  22. It happens a lot now unfortunately even on some Kanye songs- too many artists on recording iPhones aswell which shouldn’t be used for recording vocals because they’re not programmed for it.
  23. I just don’t think she cares about clipping anymore tbh- I will say blue banisters as an album is the probably the worst case for this technically with wildflower being the worst case rendering it unlistenable it’s kind of meta though because clipping in high amounts like that can damage your speakers so really she’s saying fuck you to the consumers who purchase ha music
  24. Wait I did hear some vocals when I was listening intensely that slightly clipped on the highest points very quietly- is this the issue?
