    I want to pretend nothing is going wrong and that we are all fresh happy stans. So... when did you discover Sky's music and what did you think and which songs did you like the most?

    Quote me pls, I want to read everythng

    I remember when she was trending on YouTube with Red Lips and I liked her look and her voice and I thought the song was cool but there was a DAMN SPIDER and I couldn't go thru with it but I went back maybe later that year or in 2014 and I fell in love with Lost In My Bedroom and I thought it was so dreamy and it kinda describes my state of mind at the time. But YNTO and NTMT captured me and I became a fan ever since

    13yo me was obsessed with burning desire :fabcat:

    I remember when I was having a minor asthma attack  in gym class back in the 9th grade and all i could think about was burning desire. It had just dropped and I was mesmerized.

    Me,  slightly DYING on the bleachers: "i'm driving fast *heavy breathing* flash everyone kn-"

    Within Lana's fanbase, I think that Summertime Sadness tends to get overlooked because it's popular with the general public even though it's an incredible song

    That song seriously inspired me to write poetry and songs, I still do 'til this very day. I thought it was beautiful when I first heard it.

    "Your lies were hot kisses in the summer
    I was dreaming of a lake
    Dreaming of the water where I'd rise like a phoenix
    Or an iron from the fire'
    I've got things to tell you like I know that you're a liar" 

     

     

    Spin me 'round, kiss me in your Chevrolet
    I love you more with each and every day
    Top down, gonna make a getaway, top down
    Spin me 'round, kiss me in your Chevrolet
    You found me when I had lost my way
    Foot down, we're going all the way, touchdown
    Gonna make a getaway, top down
     

    "Think I'll miss you forever
    Like the stars miss the sun in the morning sky
    Later's better than never
    Even if you're gone I'm gonna drive (drive, drive)

    I actually liked the songs and had no problem. Around that time i was kind of venturing into more alternative rock music so that came out at a perfect time. The only thing i remember being disappointed about: the music video for ultraviolence. It was cute, but i really wanted something more grand. Although BTD is special, I think UV is more classic and I relate to it more as I age.

    Carmen is such a well-written song. There’s the obvious storytelling about its namesake, but there are also two extended metaphors related to addiction and actual substances that make it such a genius, layered piece of poetry. 
     

    The interplay between —

     

    1. The verses + bridge (that detail Carmen’s experiences, perhaps as a user)

     

    2. The chorus (which analogizes Carmen — the user — into the actual substance, with lines about potential effects [“cartoon eyes”, “butterflies”, a “mind like a diamond”] and “white lightning” being a likely street name for a substance that Carmen gets compared to)

     

    — is so enriching to listen to. It’s a tragically beautiful song and is just so eerily glamorous. It’s one of my favourites off of Born to Die and it’s so, so underrated.

     

    I think there is so much more to this song than people give it credit for, and what I’ve just written here barely scratches the surface. I could write a whole dissertation on this! 
     

    The live version she did for NPR in 2012 is probably my favourite version. The acoustic arrangement makes it more haunting and lonesome, and her vocals shine beautifully here. The “weaknesses” are the strengths. They convey the true depression and pain of this track that I find to be absolutely beautiful, real, and raw.
     

    This fan-edited music video is perfect for this version too, and conveys its bone-chilling beauty. I recommend that everyone who comes across this post gives it a watch — I’ve seen this for years but it’s so worth revisiting. 
     

     

     

    Carmen holds a special place in my heart and I'm glad that I know other people love this song. I remember being 14 and I was having a hard time and really goin thru shit and I couldn't bring myself to sleep bc I'd have awful nightmare's but one day I clicked on Lana Del Rey's Carmen, and that song made me fall in love with her lol I'm so sappy
