Beautiful Loser

Mine was "Dum Dum"
 
Once you've had something
Something so beautiful
You’ll never be the same
Once you've had a taste of heaven my way
You’ll be forever changed
 
It's basically Lana foreshadowing the fact that once you listen to her songs you'll get so addicted to her special flavour of heaven that you won't be the same person you were before you heard her.
 
ONCE YOU GO LANA, YOU ARE BOUND TO GO BANANAS
 
I remember listening to this song thinking how blessed I was to listen to this angel singing!!
Oh and her vocals in the chorus are soooo heavenly

I know, I discovered her unreleased stuff just last year

There are a lot of old reviews about Lizzy here as well https://www.sonicbids.com/band/lizzygrant/press

Someone should make an Instagram full of vids of fans saying happy birthday and then try to get her to notice it or something, that's probably the easiest way, idk. Imagine someone trying to crowdfund something huge for Lana's birthday LOL.

Can we please please please send her a cake or something? A booklet with messages? Or am I being too much of a k-pop fangirl here?

I MAY BE COMPLETELY WRONG HERE AND A BIT DELULU but I'm 99% sure that the Swedish radio stations played Queen of Disaster a whole summer on repeat all days long, and I liked it - a cute song about love with a fun beat. The radio stations almost made me sick of it though, they played it so often.
I had no idea that it was Lana back then, I wasn't interested in her songs yet (I bet I hadn't even heard her name yet) and can you imagine how surprised I was when I found out some time later that my favorite artist Lana Del Rey was that singer they played all summer??
And I suppose the radio stations found out that it's unreleased because they haven't played it since. I guess someone just found it online and then played it on the radio one summer, lol. Ah, the royalties she could've gotten..!
 
Is there someone else who's Swedish and can confirm this? Because... I'm pretty sure I heard Queen of Disaster that summer! Or am I having made up memories??

Dark Paradise (Demo) [i've got the ice], it came up on my youtube one day in 2012, and I was hooked

Is anyone doing anything for Lana's birthday this year? Other than getting the hashtag trending like ever year lmao.

Omg this just in!
The next release off Lana's upcoming record Lust for Life will reportedly be a buzz promo single "Spinning Around (feat. G-Eazy)", a cover of Kylie Minogue's dance-pop/disco hit from 2000, which won the 2000 ARIA Music Award for Best Pop Release. With lyrics like "I'm spinning around/Move out of my way/I know you're feelin' me 'cuz you like it like this/I'm breakin' it down/I'm not the same/I know you're feelin' me 'cuz you like it like this", it'll be interesting to see if Ms. Del Rey has managed to turn the cheerful hit of the Australian pop diva into a moody declaration of moving on with possibly a sound similar to her own track "Freak" from the 2015 album Honeymoon, or keeping it joyful with a more psychedelic twist with the American rapper G-Eazy throwing in a completely new verse of his own.
The cover is supposed to drop on June 19th which marks the 17th anniversary of the original Minogue song, along with an official preorder for the new record Lust for Life, out July 21st. See the official cover art and the music video for the song by Kylie Minogue below. Only time will tell if the two are working on a visual and if we'll see Lana hopping in Minogue's iconic golden hotpants grinding against G-Eazy in a more or less smoky club scene!
 

 

 
sorry if I gave anyone a heart attack   xo
 
 

And we thought there wouldn't be depressing songs on the album

this shook me to my core

what was the first unreleased Lana song you ever heard?
 
mine was 1949, back in early 2015. i came across it on youtube and was SHOOK that it was lana. keep in mind i didn't know lizzy grant or may jailer even existed yet. i sent it to my then lana-guru friend who said "it's cute. sounds like lizzy grant" and mentally i went "whomst'd've?". to not look like an idiot i googled her and i was SHOOK x2 and replied nonchalantly "yeah, but i'd love if she rerecorded it" (note: this was before i even knew paradise yayo was a revamped AKA yayo. so at least it seemed realistic to said friend)
 

 
right after that i listened to axl rose husband, and i think serial killer. axl rose husband is still in my top 10 unreleased, but 1949 holds fond memories of that summer for me, depsite it being knocked past #10 by other unreleased tracks
 
i'm so grateful for it though, i would've never gotten as into lana had i not found it! at that point i was still just casual BTD scum with some UV faves, and i probably would have forgotten about lana if i didn't discover her massive unreleased discography. it keeps things very interesting, and i'm also so grateful that it all led me to this community 

throwback to two weeks ago when we thought we were actually getting the album 

I can't help but feeling a bit sad because she's teasing us so many snippets but I don't know if they all will be there when the album is done.   I hope this one will make it though, I feel like she has something she wants to share with us, her thoughts and feelings.
 
But then again, I hope all the snippets will make it to the album.   

I think she's revealing snippets because, before LFL was delayed to be extended, I think the plan was to reveal the trackless through interviews, but now there are more tracks, there may not be enough interviews to reveal the extra tracks, so she is putting snippets on IG instead.
 
Or maybe she's bored.

I was not ready for it to end with Santa Baby. xD

I can't believe that in a months time we're still not going to have this album

 

I went out last night and woke up to the Change snippet but didn't watch it for some reason and fell back asleep. So when I actually woke up I thought I dreamt it omg. Its so good & its real! I really hope she's not teasing songs that are left off the album. I'll ne really upset and disappointed.

If White Mustang didn't make the album I don't know what I'm gonna do. But I really doubt she would tease all the songs that didn't make the album. She knows how her fans would react.
