    The more they talk about her the better, let Lana be a part of their mind, haunting them like she is haunted by K every time she closes her eyes (cuz you know, it's like a dark paradise :come2: )

    I think it's pretty cool that she is on the fourth place ! Look at the other artists: Rihanna, Taylor, Beyoncé and Selena are all huge stars in the USA !
     
    I even voted for Lana and wrote her name in the special field

    I hate to break it to you, but Beyonce lived in 2013, and also wore things and went places with cameras! I know.. it must be really hard to understand.

    reminds me of this
     

     
    although i think it would be interesting if we had a thread discussing lana's (current and continual) influences on the music industry. i read in an article somewhere about how the current state of pop has become more melancholic, or "inward" and immediately thought of her potential (unspoken) impact 
     
    also, as a bit of an aside, is just me or do people use the word sonic like all the fucking time these days? outside of this forum, and without irony! seems like its become such a blog-worthy adjective in the recent year or so. i swear before 2011 i never saw that word being used unless it was followed by 'the hedgehog' 
     
    (unless i just never paid the proper attention)

    PARTITION
    In "Partition", the camera takes us inside a palatial estate that almost looks like it could have been the setting for the "Born to Die" video. See the exterior and interior below:

     
    In the first of several scenes curiously similar to ones out of "National Anthem", we find Mrs. Carter seated at an immaculately set table, barely noticed by her rapper husband peering over his newspaper:

     
    In her mind, she embarks on a sexual fantasy. Again she channels Rosalita:

     
    Her rapper husband feels up her leg in a vehicle:

     
    She puts on a show for him, donning a sequined flapper headdress like Lizzy wears in this photo:

     
    Silhouette techniques like something out of "Summertime Sadness" are employed:

     
    Beyoncé pole dances like Lana in Tropico over a sexy French spoken interlude like in "Carmen":

     
    Like A$AP Rocky in "National Anthem", her rapper husband watches her performance voyeuristically, smoking a cigar:

     
     
    JEALOUS
    Beyoncé is a jealous, jealous, jealous gurrrrrl. This video begins in the same estate reminiscent of "Born to Die" as in "Partition". In one scene, the former Miss Knowles is draped over a pinball machine like Lana in "Ride":

     
    In another we see a "tunnel lined with yellow lights":

     
     
    ROCKET
    Like "Blue Jeans", "Rocket" opens on a black & white close-up of a reflection of the artist's face in a ripple of water:

     
    Later in each video we watch the artist submerge her face in water in slow motion:

     
     
    MINE
    Like Lana in the poster for Tropico, we find Beyoncé re-enacting Mary in the Pieta:

     
    Also, is that another Shaun Ross cameo?
     
     
    XO
    In "XO", Beyoncé orchestrates perhaps the largest NYC land grab since Dutch settlers bought Manhattan Island from Native Americans for 24 bucks, stealing the famed amusement destination from the Queen of Coney Island herself:

     

     

     

     
     
    ***FLAWLESS & SUPERPOWER
    Since I can't find any Lana plagiarism in either of these videos, I'm just gonna go ahead and assume they must be borrowed from the "Dark Paradise" and "Cola" videos that never materialized. @@Ultraviolence Watch these. One of them may be the closest thing you'll ever get to your precious "Cola" video.
     
     
    HEAVEN
    Here we have the biggest plot heist since Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds ripped off Gremlins. In "Heaven", Beyoncé portrays a woman mourning her deceased female bff in a series of flashbacks. Sound familiar? Of course it does. It's the plot of Lana's "Summertime Sadness" video. Not content to copycat one Lana video, "Heaven" filches from a few. A shot in a church mirrors the chapel in "Born to Die":

     
    In a flashback, Beyoncé's girlfriend sprays alcohol at a campfire party echoing scenes in "Ride":

     
    And we see her and her gal pal riding in a car like Lana & Jaime King:

     
    She only barely tries to disguise her copying Lana's recitation of the Lord's Prayer in Tropico by saying it in Spanish. Oh, and speaking of Spanish, here's Rosalita yet again:

     
     
    BLUE
    Sure, there's another "tunnel lined with yellow lights":

     
    The sequined bra is back:

     
    And she evokes Lizzy's showgirl style:

     
    But most saliently, this song is about Beyoncé's, uh, baby Blue love, the black baby daughter she had with a rapper. What a blatant "National Anthem" ripoff!

     
     
    GROWN WOMAN
    Last but not least, the video for "Grown Woman" consists of home footage of Beyoncé's childhood performances, a clear homage to Lana's DIY videos.

    Not to mention she straight up sang "National Anthem" in front of a whole nation without ever crediting the real artist. I mean look at the dates:

    This should air everywhere and become a huge scandal so Lana will have some controversy and ppl will talk about him and then she can release Body Electric and it can slay the world, like it obviously would

    Have you see a Kansas sunset or an Arizona rain?
    Have you drifted on a bayou down Louisiana way?
    Have you watched a cold fog drifting over San Francisco Bay?
    Have you heard a bobwhite calling in the Carolina pines,
    Or heard the bellow of a diesel at the Appalachia mines?
    Does the call of Niagara thrill you when you hear her waters roar?
    Do you look with awe and wonder at her Massachusetts shore,
    Where men who braved a hard new world first stepped on Plymounth's rock?
    And do you think of them when you stroll along a new York City dock?
    Have you seen a snowflake drifting in the Rockies, way up high?
    Have you seen the sun come blazing down from a bright Nevada sky?
    Do you hail to the Columbia as she rushes to the sea,
    Or bow your head at Gettysburg at our struggle to be free?
    You ask me Why I Love Her? I've a million reasons why:
    My Beautiful America, beneath God's wide, wide sky
