To the recuse clearly isn't a song title.
 
Overanalysing. "Lana Del Rey to the rescue"

i hope there's a song with these lyrics, i think about them a lot    https://twitter.com/lanadelrey/status/33956541799337984

not sure if i'm gonna get in trouble for this but 
 

 
:mj3:

Hahahha is Chuck still alive

Woolridge is a strange name 

I'm a little uncomfortable with the extent of stalking of people peripherally connected to Lana taking place on the forum lately. It's one thing when Lana basically outs herself as an AA member and we just put the pieces together, but do we have to out other members? It's called Alcoholics Anonymous for a reason. It's also one thing to figure out information like this privately and use it as a lead to figure out other stuff, but is it really necessary to post every last detail publicly on the forum? There's a reason I redact most names when I post Facebook screenshots. What exactly do we expect to gain by this?

Jane's profile is where a lot of the "new" old photos are coming from. If you notice Jane is in almost all of them lol.

Is it just that outfit that's won her 4th place lol

aww lol

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.
 
 
 

I REALLY don't understand why any intelligent person would send their child with an addiction problem AWAY. If that were true, I'd understand if Lana held resentment toward them in the past.

Saw this on Tumblr. Real or fake?
 

I really do believe that Lana would only ever want songs released by herself that were written by herself (obv covers don't count). Now all that other random stuff, stuff that doesn't seem to be intended for any albums or that sound pretty far apart from her own music, THAT is what I think she'd have written with other people. Because I think that sort of thing was only ever intended to be sold on, so who cares.

Watch them registration sites like greedy hawks

"I also believe the reason she went away to school was for music" - the lie her parents told everyone or maybe she really didn't start drinking at 14?

I don't think Lana is really that interested in selling the most records or her record being Number 1 for 14 weeks like other pop artists are. She had that with Born to Die and it was probably stressful having to promote it so much and having to deal with the backlash to something you love like she did that record. She barely promoted Paradise and in general, we haven't been hearing that much professionally from her this year. I hope she focuses on creating a record she loves and is proud of instead of making something she likes and that will sell well and make her beloved.

A lot of people have been talking about if Skyfall is still eligible to be nominated and why other albums, such as ARTPOP and Bangerz, were not nominated. Skyfall is still eligible to be nominated because the time frame for this upcoming Grammys is October 1, 2012 to September 30, 2013. Skyfall was released just in time for this years by being released October 5, 2012 and ARTPOP and Bangerz weren't released in time with ARTPOP being released November 6, 2013 and Bangerz October 4, 2013. Adele made it in the nick of time and Lady Gaga and Miley Cyrus weren't snubbed. Hoped that cleared some stuff. 

you guys are literally insane believing any decent looking thirsty gay online
 
i emailed UMG and they responded this morning saying they don't have that edward guy in their system 

i'm gonna start telling everyone i wrote black beauty since y'all believe anything 

he produced bel air, blue jeans, the orchestral young & beautiful and i think the score for tropico (and maybe other stuff as well) so yes it's good!

im glad i wasnt the only one with the crazy theory that he was just some hardcore stan trolling all of us. ... im sure theres at least some truth to his story but i couldnt help being skeptical about this. so weird

she's working with Daniel Heath again btw

Now what's the likelihood he'd work on both Live or Die (old) and AFFA (new) without ANY of us ever hearing about him? Have you guys not met evilentity?

Just thinking, I hope she actually goes to the award ceremony!
