I want the return of the puppy backpack this era

I want an album closer for Honeymoon along the lines of My Best Days.. it seems really fitting in my mind. Like, I'm definitely here for some happier Lana songs, but the longing & reminiscent vibe of My Best Days would be such a great way to close an album with the title Honeymoon in my opinion..
 
Also some of y'all are so rude ew.

I saw this in the Ultraviolence music video comments on YouTube; thought it was interesting and thought I'd share, but I don't know if this is reaching, or personal interpretation in it's own right.
 
"Man, the symbolism behind this video...I totally understand it. Lots of complaining in there about the video being boring but the kids just don’t get it. The symbolism behind this video is really beautiful…I totally understand it. The symbolism of this song, why Lana wrote it, why she made the music video this way is all part of her story of Jim Morrison and Pamela Courson. She is a Morrison fan as most of you should know, she must know the story behind Jim’s relationship with girlfriend Pamela Courson. He whisked Pamela off her feet at 18 years old and pretty much “raised her up”. Jim was a brilliant poet and great singer for The Doors but he was also quite a womanizer and when Jim drank he could be brutally violent. Pamela could have been described as Deadly Nightshade or Poison Ivy for the way she treated men to get back at Jim. Lana’s lyrics describes their relationship perfectly especially this part: ” We could go back to New York, Loving you was really hard, We could go back to Woodstock, Where they don’t know who we are..” Loving Jim Morrison was EXTREMELY hard from everything I read over the years. Read any bio book on him. Then add Jim’s fame with The Doors which made it even harder for their relationship. Something else in this video that grabbed my attention was that Pam begged Jim to marry her. They always got the marriage license and have that ready to go but Jim would buckle up and never go through with it. In the end, they never married. Jim died of a heroin OD at the age of 27 years old. In his last Will he left everything to Pam. This is why Lana appears alone in this video wearing a 60’s style wedding dress. Lana has a very fragile look throughout the whole video. Very little makeup. White. Hair straight and flowing down. Reminiscent of the way Pam looked during the Bronson Caves photos. Like Pam, Lana is alone in the end of the video. She reached the alter and no one is there. Jim died. She’s alone. In real life, Pam died 3 years later of a heroin OD as well. She too was 27 years old. Thank you Lana for putting so much thought and effort into your videos. That’s why I always love her work. I hope her fans could just dig into them a little more then just scratching just the surface."

"We usually don’t cover red carpet events, but this outfit was too interesting not to write about it.
Yesterday Lana Del Rey attended the Golden Globes 2015, where she was nominated for her Big Eyessong from the Tim Burton movie soundtrack. She stunned the audience wearing a vintage Travilla seafoam green dress, a dress I would have identified with my eyes closed. 
William Travilla designed most of the costumes worn by Marilyn Monroe in her films, including the infamous gold pleated dress, originally intended to appear in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953). In the movie you can see the dress from behind: it was considered too racy because of its plunging neckline, so it didn’t get a front shot.
By the way, Marilyn wore it at a photoshoot with Ed Clark and to receive an award from Photoplay Magazine, thus disappointing the costume designer, who thought the dress was for a movie, not for a public appearance. The dress was created out of a single complete circle of gold lame and sunburst pleated. Every pleat lines up with the back seam and there is an iron V build in the centre of the dress from the waist to the bust, creating the moulding effect.
This isn’t the only pleated evening dress Travilla designed, but it’s definitely the most famous."
 
 
thought this was interesting 

I feel like this would've looked better, it's like an expensive-looking version of Lana's dress.

Still gorgeous though!

she looked so happy, healthy and really good!.......except for the dress. her face & hair make her look really sophisticated and mature but the dress is kinda mermaid-style and just doesn't really suit her upper body appearance. perhaps if she'd gone for a darker colour it would have suited her better, idk.
 
oh well, she still looks absolutely stunning!!

I think it's really exciting how soon Lana has begun this new record, "fickle muse" my ass. It was the same with Paradise after BTD and Paradise is one of Lana's best records.

before y'all come at me, but I think that OTTR will be a one-time event in Lana discography. I will eat my words if she suprises me. I have never ever heard a song like that. Such a rollercoaster-ride, at least that's how I explain this song to others. But I rather think that by the way how she described the writing process for this record, it ain't gonna happen, lyrically. And the song had this great production on it, it was insane.

If we get some uptempo's like Off To The Races Ill be so happy, that song is pure gold. Or even just one upbeat song like OTTR's, its a standout track.

You literally read my mind.I'd love it if the whole album had a summery vibe to it (On the beach maybe in Hawaii or the Caribbean relaxing in a cabin taking the view in and looking at boys  ). 
 
Along the line of what type of flower Lana might use I was thinking of this - tropical hiblscus
 

 
Loads of bright pastel colors this time too and as I stated before more Photo-shoots like Lana did for clash magazine where you can see that she is clearly naturally happy.       

Just keep her away from nightclubs where producers hang out.

I don't know, I think you are/were overreacting a bit. I went back and re-read and there was plenty of speculation on how Mark being a producer would affect the sound/would the hip hop beats come back, how we hoped she had moved on to a different place lyrically, and even some people talking about how they hoped she'd find her vocals. There was some talk of image, but no more than any of the other parts of the album and even the people talking about it knew it was a little silly. You kind of made it sound like this thread was pages and pages about her clothes/hair/makeup and it really isn't. Most people care about the musical content of the songs; if they didn't they wouldn't be here because if we cared about "the package" alone we all would have left when UV didn't pan out.
 
It's also not really fair because we don't have any lyrics to dissect and we can't talk about the cultural impact because there is nothing to talk about. Sure, you could with BTD because it was already out when the forum was made. I think the deep-thought stuff will come when the album gets here, because that is what happened with UV and I'm assuming Paradise (I wasn't on here when it was released). But to criticize people for not being analytical about an album that we only know the title and two song titles to is probably a little much. That leaves us with just being able to speculate about things and I don't think it's wrong to talk about what we hope the album will sound like (or what we don' want) or any of that.
 
Sorry, please don't take it personally, I doubt you meant anything rude to anyone and did make some good points that might be applicable elsewhere, but you came across to me as slightly condescending to the people posting here and I just didn't think it was fair. 

"the girl from Interscope" 
French Blah Blah Blah shut the fuck up !!! Her name is Lana and she's much more popular than you little pussy !!
 
I think you should know who you're collaborating with !
Lana, please don't record a song with him, you're to genius and wonderful for that     

wtf

Pictured: Lana reading this thread after she finishes recording 10 minutes jazz songs with her whispering on a children's microphone while Mark Ronson languidly plays the sax.

omfg. She needs to cover Elvis though. Get that legal team to work and cover Can't Help Falling In Love

What I like the most about this album is the fact that no label or record producer forced her to write a specific type of music or appropriate lyrics. Lana Del Ray represents her music taste back in that time when she sat in her trailer park and wrote it. The sound is super unique and 100% Lana. In my opinion it reveals much about her personality, her affinity to kitsch, lolitas and death and was an important step on her way to success. I wish she would embrace this masterpiece instead of denying it but I guess she would get in trouble with Interscope if she played songs out of that album live. Nonetheless imagine mysterious songs like Mermaid Motel, Jump or Kill Kill on stage   While BTD, Paradise or even UV might appeal to a broader audience, Lana Del Ray has an undeniable authenticity to it and makes me believe that it actually reveals Lana's deepest thoughts uncensored (at least those she had back in 2008) since she didn't really spend a lot of time wondering what the public is going to say about it. 
I think there's no need to talk about amazing lines like "Palm trees in black and white, last thing I saw before I died" (this opening line has the same effect as "My pussy tastes like Pepsi Cola" in some way but on a higher level imo) or "I said it's nice to love and be loved but I'd rather know what God knows".

I know a guy who interviewed Daniel Heath about Big Eyes yesterday and I got him to sneak in a few questions about his involvement on her next album.
 
He is sending me the audio from the interview later, so I will let you guys know the tea as soon as I listen.

What I find so interesting is that the music of this album doesn't fit the time it was released...this album doesn't feel like it was recorded in 2008 or released in 2010 while electronic music and Adele & Rihanna were topping the charts
 
This album is not just from another era but another universe
