Dark Angel

if it were ANY other artist releasing nearly FIFTY "variants" of their mid, bland album, especially in order to prevent other fellow artists from hitting #1 on the chart, something arguable meaningless anyway, they would be dragged to hell and back by the entire world it's beyond embarrassing for any artist to do that and it's also beyond embarrassing to see people defend her and act like it's no big deal, it's pathetic (and that's not to say that charli or any other artist shouldn't want to be at #1 or shouldn't want to succeed, but it's just so silly and ridiculous to see how desperate taylor is to stay at #1 even though it really doesn't mean all that much, ESPECIALLY since it ISN'T organic, in the slightest, in that case, it's pretty much meaningless)

sirens is my 2nd favorite lana del rey album honestly... <3 so many INCREDIBLE songs, and some of her greatest lyrics can be found on sirens, despite it being recorded so early on in her career it really reminds me of my hometown on cloudy days in late fall and early spring, when the grass has lost it's vibrant green and the trees are completely bare, genuinely an underrated folk gem that deserves more love and recognition i have many favorites that i especially adore off of sirens, but peace is my #1, it just touches my soul so painfully and wonderfully <3

When you switch on the news at six Do you believe what they say? Rock and roll heavy metal baby Like a broken record, it's all the same And sadly I'm mad I want you to take me tonight In blood diamond, blue velvet nights Jupiter rising, dawn past daylight Hollywood Jesus my own faux comfort Crying in your arms when I'm hurt I have ten million questions With no ease by your divine interventions I want to fly Beyond the veil where angels glide I want to understand Is there peace on the other side Is there peace on the other side When you switch on the news at six Do you believe what they say? Hollywood starlet overboard It's crazy they say And sadly i'm mad I want you to take me tonight In blood diamond, blue velvet nights Jupiter rising, dawn past daylight Hollywood Jesus my own faux comfort Crying in your arms when I'm hurt I have ten million questions With no ease by your divine interventions I want to fly Beyond the veil where angels glide I want to understand Is there peace on the other side Is there peace on the other side I can feel it coming in the air tonight See you walking on that blue Pacific I can see you bathing in the summer light Glimmering down it's almost mythic You got game boy You got game boy You got game boy When you switch on the news at six Do you believe what they say?

OMG what a surprise! when we get new honeymoon themes for it's 10 year anniversary next year in september

i don't how to properly dedicate an entire, full-fledged post about my love for ultraviolence, despite how much i do love born to die and honeymoon, it really is my favorite lana del rey album besides sirens and AKA, the fact that it's just so hard to have one favorite tells you how strong and wonderful her discography and her artistry is ultraviolence is a magnificent album with an incredible, irresistibly dark atmosphere... conjuring vivid, alluring images of late-summer storms, beaches, cigarettes, expensive cologne, cult leaders, dark eyeliner, and leather... songs like cruel world, west coast, and brooklyn baby will pull you in like waves of the ocean, not letting you escape, songs like pretty when you cry, fucked my way up to the top, and flipside crash down dry, hot, and hard like bright thunder against a black sky... and songs like old money, guns and roses, and is this happiness leave you in a smokey, intriguing haze of sorrow, fear, introspection, and nostalgia... the perfect album for sweltering, hot summers with stormy, gray skies

AKA GREATEST ALBUM OF ALL TIME ALBUM OF THE CENTURY ALBUM OF THE MILLENIUM I WILL SCREAM IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS FOR ALL ETERNITY!!!

friendly reminder that guns and roses is in fact one of her best songs and you all will DEAL!

currently bopping to telephone FT britney spears... i might like it better than the album version i fear!

perhaps lasso will feature some minor, subtle elements of country music, like the dark, warm guitars featured on born to die, on tracks such as blue jeans and summertime sadness, or perhaps the general sound and cadence of the songs will be reminiscent of country music, sort of like how she described video games and ride as country songs, or, it may be more experimental, taking influence from a variety of different sources, almost like AKA, which undoubtedly features a country, folk, vintage americana sound, in songs queen of the gas station, oh say can you see, raise me up (mississippi south), and pawn shop blues, but even the songs that do not sound country or anything under that umbrella have that sort of feel, somehow, mermaid motel sounds way more reminiscent of the sea, or flashing, neon lights at an amusement park, but it fits in perfectly with the flirty americana of queen of the gas station, or the agricultural vulnerability of pawn shop blues, although she did sneak in a southern accent in the second verse of that one, i think it would be really cool and interesting if lasso felt reminiscent of AKA's wide scope of sounds and influences, vast, yet cohesive

omg i love the fan's look! how cute!

OMG I LOVE THIS AESTHETIC it's so southern gothic trailer park midwest deep-south nostalgic summer tuesday in 2011 very me!

and it will feature a cover of spanish caravan

omg this is so amazing! i would be SO incredibly nervous if i had this opportunity, one-on-one lunch with THE lana del rey? i couldn't eat, i could hardly speak... i would just be so nervous and stunned and starstruck... hopefully you manage to keep your cool lol!

lana del rey when BCC news asked her about taylor's career and success instead of asking her about her own career and success

nobody here HAS to like her, and we should be able to express our opinions, especially when they're clearly warranted, this is lanaboards, not taylorboards or anotherotherartistboards so we honestly should have the right and the ability to express our thoughts freely on other artists, however we see fit, as we aren't on a platform dedicated to them i can agree that for the most part that just simply going into a random artist's thread and talking shit about them for no reason isn't really good form, but the last time we did that was when she was releasing 390294092 versions of her album just simply because she couldn't fathom another artist (another female artist at that) being at the top for ONCE she's very clearly money-hungry, greedy, and selfish, and it's especially egregious considering the state of the world right now, i'm not saying she's the worst of the worst, and i can't act like every artist i listen to are magnificent people, i mean, nobody is anyway, but we have every right not to like her and we have every right to call her out on it, especially so since so many people practically worship her

at least she can somewhat recognize that she's a money-hungry turbo-capitalistic who only cares about herself

not necessarily when i feel tired or want to sleep, but whenever i don't feel my best (physically), my head hurts, or when i want to listen to music but don't want to hear anything too loud or energetic, i often listen to songs from lana's may jailer era (2005/2006) her acoustic and laptop demos, and old, acoustic folk songs, like from nick drake and such i was actually planning on making a playlist for songs like that, i'll have to do that today

we really do need him
