I can't wait for the star interactions, and I hope they interview the shit out of her, JUST MAKE HER TALK TALK TALK
(but seriously we need more Lana interviews no?)

 
Taylor would hit him on the head with the microphone this time, you did see what she wrote on twitter right?

She actually refers to her actual life and the life she lives in her mind. If you listen to her interviews she often mentions that she has a developed inner world.

Well it's nice to have you back

You are crushing my delusional fantasies about Lana's fame

So in gangster that basically translates to "Hey there, you sexy bitch."?

You were joking, but that twirl was iconic :twirls: :twirls: :twirls:

I think both countries have interesting cultures.
America is lucky because WW 1 and 2 didn't hit it as hard as Europe so there was more cultural development in the 20th century which, musically, is really interesting to look into. Like '50's and '60's music.

Oh well...her version would have been a disgrace to Lana anyway.

You were joking, but that twirl was iconic :twirls: :twirls: :twirls:

We would never get to see it because of endless copyright problems

SNL

"Am I glamorous, tell me am I glamorous" in without you. Also "Can you picture this, babe the life we could have lived" the way her voice sounds when she sings that live ;alsfkja
 
In Y&B orchestral version when the bridge starts (dear lord...), the orchestra sounds amazing + lana's voice, I get chills every time.
 
In dark paradise demo, the one that sounds completely different from the album version, the part where she says "i got the stuff TO TAKE you higher" the way she says TO TAKE i'm just i can't even explain
 
everything about live versions of summertime sadness. when she sings "i got that summertime summertime saDNess" the way she emphasizes the dn part of it. also when she sings "OH MY GOD" and "kiss me hard before you go oooooh summertime sadness" the oooooh she started doing on paradise tour ---------> here   2:04 i can't get enough of it
 
in brite lites, "i'm waving on the silver screen" part makes me laugh every time because i can't help but think about the music video...
 
in blue jeans, when the bridge starts and her voice gets super low
 
in video games, this version in particular, the piano on the last chorus, when she sings "i tell you all the time" gives me goosebumps just thinking about it
 
in born to die, when she does the "aaaah aaah aah" at the end when she sings it live 
 
in TRASH the part where she says "he said, lana rey will you serve me lemonade and i said YES bill i will" the way she says YES makes me smile
 
oh god, also in burning desire, the pre choruses, where she's kind of whispering-singing like the "have to touch myself to pretend you're here" aksf;as'asg

Watch this performance from 1:25-1:34....you will not regret it
racES, racES

Isn't it weird that we don't have a thread for this? Our girl brings us many wonderful videos to look at, so I thought before Tropico slays us forever we could discuss the best things about her videos so far.
 
So vote, tell us which is your favorite video and why, what you loved about it, you know how it goes

The variety of the votes just show how she always delivers
 
My fave is Born To Die - It is the video that made me fall in love with her, and even after all this time, I still think that she in that throne is the best look she ever had. So damn beautiful and elegant. Plus if you watch it enough times you actually get the message of the whole thing which is a nice extra.

That version of the song is just ughhh, so good
 
And wow, she looks like a Siren in that video with all that flying hair. Very cool.
 
I'm happy that someone gives love to Blue Velvet too, such a well-made one

I thought we should keep it about her videos post-breakthrough, plus there aren't that many voting options.
You can just say Other and then write a comment

Here's my list, first place is my favorite, to last place - my least favorite:
1. Blue Velvet (The one I voted for) AMAZING. So old-style-glamourous-lana-ish perfection. I just love evereything about it.
2. National Anthem - Beautiful video. Lana looks so good on it, and the story of it is genius. Perfect. I especially love how Lana dances there at some parts
3. Summer Wine - CAN LANA AND BARRIE GET ANY CUTER? They're the perfect match, I swear.
4. Chelsea Hotel No. 2 - I remember how I fell in love when I watched this video the first time... She looks beyond beautiful, I love this mature-dark Lana. Really love the black hair.
5. Blue Jeans - Brilliant directing and filming, so damn stunning with the water and everything! I love Lana and Bradley, they make a great story together.
6. Carmen - Brilliant editing by Lana! Again, just love everything about it. It really fits the feeling of the song.
7. Ride - Just tellls the story of Lana, I'm obsessed with the intro, great acting by Lana, so free and emotional.
8. Born To Die - Again, that connection between Lana and Bradley I love so much. Plus, the feeling it gives, it amazes me.
9. Y&B - I adore this classy-20's-old-fashioned Lana. Simple yet beautiful video.
10. Burning Desire - SO SEXY I CAN DIE, she's just beautiful there, her moves... Gosh.
11. Summertime Sadness - She's beautiful as always, love Lana and Jaime together. Too "Instagrammed" though.
12. Video Games - Her first, Her less Mature, yed beautiful video. you can feel she means the words while singing them. Iconic.

Blue Jeans.
 
I just love everything about it. The cinematography is gorgeous imo, and both Lana & that one dude who talks way too much look very, very sexy in it.
 
Honourable mention for National Anthem though, which is my close 2nd; I like the concept, it's beautifully shot + it features A$AP Rocky.

This tbh...I think a honest/helpful critique should always be valued.

Two days ago it leaked, with Midnite Dancer Girlfriend (which leaked separately from the rest), Black Beauty, JFK, Starry Eyed, and Hollywood () AFFA and BB were for new album, however.

Sometimes I am so surprised at which song wins...we have varying tastes :airplease:
 
Ridin Vs Happiest Girl In the whole USA

It's really good, but you really should've used a better instrumental imo. this one lacks depth. also i don't know if it's intentional but at some points you are off tempo and that makes it sounds weird   oh and also, I know it's a cover, but the the way you changed the melody in the verses makes it sound like a completely different song - remember, you're doing a cover of lana, not christina aguilera! also at some points you sound kinda out of breath; maybe take another look at your singing techniques? lastly I think the vocal effects you added might be a little bit too much.
 
sorry for all the criticism but I know you can do better and I really want to hear it!

A++ for effort though
