  4. Ok but so on another note, I was reading how the smell of pine, or just pine had all these health benefits, with flavanoids and biof, with antioxidants, and reduce risks of cancer so on. I just remembered 13 Beaches, when she mentioned how she likes spending time underneath the pines. Holistic health queen... I hope she keeps going with this happy place of a concept for the next record. That with surf vibes would just be heaven 


  5. Let me tell you a very melodramatique story.

     

    In June 2014, I was a HUMONGOUS CocoRosie stan, and looking for new music. I was following two guys on Tumblr, both CocoRosie stans. The first had a "honey and tar" tattoo one on arm. It's a CocoRosie song name (listen to it, it's fucking good, best non-Lana album ever). He had "paradise" tattooed on the other arm, because of Lana. He was gay ofc but I was really into him, I was fascinated by how much he liked both Lana and CocoRosie, I thought it was so incompatible for some reasons. I don't remember anything about the other guy, except he was also a stan of both, and also cute, and also gay lol. Anyways - it happens that Ultraviolence leaks on Tumblr, and the second guy reblogs Old Money with the tag "so fucking good omg", I remember it so well the image of my dashboard with the post is embedded in my brain. The three Lana songs I had listened prior to that were Off To The Races, Born To Die and Video Games, obviously. I didn't liked Lana, I had this image of her of 2012 fake girl and also at the time - God forgives - I HATED pop. Oh actually I forgot - I had Sad Girl on my iPod but I had no idea it was Lana lmfao, someone put it on it for me and it was an old iPod nano. Well I don't know what pushed me to click on the play button but it fucking changed my life forever. Maybe because I was into the guy, maybe because I was looking for new music, maybe because I liked the song name, I don't know, but one week later I cried on a Lana song for the first time, in my tiny bedroom, at 34°C in my dirty sheets at 4am in Paris west side suburbs. I was OBSESSED with Old Money, the theme, the melody, the lyrics, the voice. Then nothing. I didn't listened to her at all until September. In September, still looking for new music, I was like hmmm. I kinda like this song, Old Money... I love that guy who loves Lana... What if I give her a try? And then I remember, I was ironing my clothes, watching Tropico, and I was so mesmerized I burned my pants lol. I couldn't understand the way her face was shaped and it was so weird, I had to rewatch it many times to understand her face was asymmetrical. I watched Tropico before listening to any other Lana song. But then, I watched West Coast, and Money Power Glory, and after bleeding those two songs to DEATH, I started listening to only unreleased, and I started reblogging pics of her on Tumblr with the tag "angel", and I stumbled upon Serial Killer and the rest is history, by New Year's Eve I was a full blown stan and I started collecting candids from lanadelreyfan's gallery, and only stopped when I had more than 15000 on my computer and thought maybe it was a bit unhealthy

     

    And now, four years later, the Kristijan remix of Old Money is astonishingly my most played song on iTunes, and Lana was the first girl I kissed, and I have Ultraviolence tattooed on my heart, and I went to Los Angeles, in the corner of Sunset and Vine Lana talks about in Old Money. Life is weird. It's not my favourite, but I'm so thankful for Old Money and I'll never forget what it means to me.

    Wth this is amazing. Thank u for sharing (sincerely) :hearrt: 

     

    I get it tho, I've all these songs that I couldn't listen to for a while bc of guys. I empathize. Glad u got into her stuff tho yeas!!  :yesnod:


  6. The first song I heard of hers was Young & Beautiful when The Great Gatsby came out and I was obsessed with BTD/Paradise and that song for ages but the moment I became a STAN was when West Coast was premiered. Instant stan card when I heard the best song of all time

     

    I guess I was just a casual Lana fan until West Coast came out. That bitch made me STAN :defeated:

    Ding ding! Taste!  :dance:


  7. Title. Could be from her official discog or not. 

    Which song had you obsessed with the artist that is Lana Del Rey? What comprised of that moment when you just knew it was THAT song that you had to hear live, had to see a video for, to be sung in a cappella so on. 

    Born to Die was life changing, her voice, the instrumentals, the topics she'd sing about. I was mesmerized. Paradise came along shortly after, I marathon'd Tropico and waited for UV after her announcement. 

    For me, it was all about WEST COAST. I remember Fern debuting it on the radio, and I'd been waiting to listen to it an hour before to make sure I didn't miss it. It was dark in my room I was just on the net waiting til it came. That song got me OBSESSED. The sensuality of it, the downtempo chorus, the subject matter, the guitar, those synths. It was so beautifully malefic.

    That was the moment I knew Lana had so much more to offer. 

    Watched the live performance of it online at Coachella, the dizzying yellow lights that hit the stage and audience at the bridge. How the colors danced around her dress. Utterly mystifying. The vid's such a dream too. 

    I'm not sure how many times I've listened to the song, and I remember some moments I've played it to extend my experiences but damnnnnnnn. What. a song. I'll stop there

    So. 

    Which song had you hooked with Lana? What might be your favorite or most memorable memory while listening to it? 


  8. this footage makes me weirdly sad, like in a nostalgic way. 2012 was such a fun time to be a Lana fan. 2012-2015.

     

    No I get it. I remember when I first listened to Born To Die, it just transformed my perspective on life little by little. Then we kinda got to see her everywhere for a bit, and it pretty great. The grandiose vids from BtD, how she sated our wonder with Paradise. The fuck you's from UV would make u laugh about life, the lullabies on HM. I remember being at UO listening to the music.

     

    I guess for me, LFL was amazing to the point of the White Mustang vid, the Love posters, all the magazines, some performances. It's funny too cus I think the last record was when I actually got to share how much I love Lana with friends as a kinda group thing, so that was a big deal for me. I mean she's a true stable name out there now, and I personally think she's influenced a wave of singing and style that no one can really take away. So there's that. Good things come to those who wait probs.

     

    I'm kinda hoping she'll change the music game, and elevate it again somehow with the supposed upcoming record.

     

    At the very least, LFL's a great transitory perspective on her part, so hey, that's something she's recently already shared.


  9. So. Anyone else wondering what she might perform? Sarcasm free, I hope Coachella makes a deep impact. and LOVE. I'm actually starting to think LFL might be the most appropriate album to pick tracks from to sing than the others. Since it's the most current . .

    I wonder if she'll have something new to sing, covers, and so on. 


    Imagine her singing Black Beauty wOW
