Late 2010/Early 2011 Lana teas // // // Just kidding don't scalp me please
-
The video is extremely beautiful, definitely my favourite from this era so far. Although, I can't help but imagine what these clips would have looked like in what they were originally intended for. You can tell the clips are really old based by her hair as well as her pale blue nails, which match the July 2014 Rolling Stone cover. I guess Lana really wanted these clips to see the light of day, so she chose to match them with Freak.

I believe only the first half of her show was professionally recorded and posted on soundcloud by a radio station. I wish the whole show was, it was her best performance of FMWUTTT.

Yes, it was once on YouTube and has since been taken down. There's a screenshot of the thumbnail somewhere on the boards of what the video looked like. From my memory she was sitting with another person and had a guitar (?) & had her long, wavy blonde hair. Edit: This is from the 2007.01.22 @ The Bitter End thread: Also, "Don't Be So Blue" is from I Want to Sing I'm glad to have contributed!

More notes - she has performed For K Pt. 2 live and there is footage of it, we just don't have access to it. She also sang a few words of Kinda Outta Luck if you want to note that for an ~interlude~ lol. For covers, she also has sung I Want to Sing by Regina Spektor during on stage soundchecks quite a few times & sang Happy Birthday Mr. President live to fans a couple of times.

She performed Lolita for her 3 dates at the El Rey theatre in 2012 & Irving Plaza. She covered Do Right & Chelsea Hotel No. 2 during endless summer. She also sang Old Money at her Hollywood Forever Cemetery show along with a couple of other shows & sang a snippet of it during Endless Summer in Atlanta. You Can Be the Boss was a common song on her set list on her really early 2011 shows, and I'm pretty sure she only performed it on the first date of Endless Summer, but I'm not positive x Also, these youtubers have good recordings for the following album sections: 2127Jojo1 - Endless Summer Lucile Fradin - Ultraviolence tracks Madmanlanadelrey - Paradise Tour

It's nice to know she still uses "lyrically and melodically."

It may not be fashionable to love you, but those who know you well shouldn't be scared. There's nothing to lose. You make your own rules and your eye for aesthetics is incredible. Stay elusive, and stay unique. I agree with this. ~stays elusive~

The cover is beautiful. If someone could be so kind as to ship me one I would very much appreciate it! Of course, I'll pay for shipping (duh) (pretty pretty please?)

Awh thank you! So are you! I'm always crying at how gorgeous you are in the Pictures of You thread.I found the dress by searching around on eBay. I just searched different variations of essentially "Topshop white lace dress" and would find some in the mix. I'm sure the dress is on other resale sites as well because there were definitely a few listed on eBay. Good luck!!

Your Favourite Song from Each Album's Track-listing Placement
Elle replied to delreyfreak's topic in Lana Thoughts
Some of these are just too hard to choose one. The ones I'm counting in my final total I'm putting in bold, if something's underlined that means it's also a top favourite. Italicized means I could barely make the decision lol. Kill Kill ---- Born to Die ---- Ride ---- Cruel World ---- Honeymoon Queen of the Gas Station ---- Off to the Races ---- American ---- Ultraviolence ---- Music to Watch Boys To Oh Say Can You See ---- Blue Jeans ---- Cola ---- Shades of Cool ---- Terrence Loves You Gramma (Blue Ribbon Sparkler Trailer Heaven) ---- Video Games ---- Body Electric ---- Brooklyn Baby ---- God Knows I Tried For K Part 2 ---- Diet Mountain Dew ---- Blue Velvet ---- West Coast ---- High By The Beach Jump ---- National Anthem ---- Gods & Monsters ---- Sad Girl ---- Freak Mermaid Motel ---- Dark Paradise ---- Yayo (Paradise edition) ---- Pretty When You Cry ---- Art Deco Raise Me Up (Mississippi South) ---- Radio ---- Bel Air ---- Money Power Glory ---- Religion Pawn Shop Blues ---- Carmen ---- Burning Desire ---- Fucked My Way Up to the Top ----- Salvatore Brite Lites - Million Dollar Man ---- Ride ---- Old Money ---- The Blackest Day Put Me in a Movie ---- Summertime Sadness ---- American ---- The Other Woman ---- 24 Smarty ---- This Is What Makes Us Girls ---- Cola ---- Black Beauty ---- Swan Song Yayo (AKA version) ---- Without You ---- Body Electric ---- Guns and Roses ---- Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood AKA - 4 BTD - 1 P - 1 UV - 4 HM - 3 Some of these decisions were really hard to make, but I'd say this is accurate. When I'm generally ranking these albums, UV & AKA are my favourite albums, P & BTD end up being my least favourites compared to the others, and Honeymoon sits kind of in the middle. rip to Lolita, Florida Kilos, Flipside, and Is This Happiness who were snubbed -
I've officially taken my Lana obsession to the next level lol. I've tracked down some pretty memorable outfits Lana has worn - the dress worn in the Ride video (as well as a few other appearances) and the shirt and skirt worn in the Born to Die cover shoot thanks to some posts in this thread. The Ride dress and the shirt worn in the BTD shoot were relatively easy to find. I only found one of the BTD skirt, but I was lucky that it fit even though I was worried it might be too big. They were all for a great price too - I paid a little over $10 for the skirt & about same for the dress, but they were both out of the country, so shipping ended up costing more than the items themselves. I found the shirt for $20. My photographer friend is going to do a shoot with me in a few days dressed in my BTD outfit, but I had a friend take some quick photos of me in the Ride dress with a flag so I can channel my inner Lana lol.

Honeymoon - Pre-Release and Discussion Thread
Elle replied to ilovetati's topic in Retired Pre-Release Threads
For me personally, I agree with this. I was extremely underwhelmed with Freak compared to the snippet we had in the trailer. Now hearing the whole thing, I'm really disappointed and kind of let down because I expected a lot from it. I don't really like the production and the whole song is just kind of messy in my opinion. I love Guns and Roses, though. As repetitive as it may be, I think it's absolutely striking. The verses are beautifully written and her vocals in the bridge are indescribable.. It's easy to listen to and it's just so beautiful. It takes me somewhere else. I don't understand the hate for it, except I do know a lot of members here are bothered by choruses that are too repetitive. please don't hate me for my opinion, fellow Lana friends -
Out of the four singles we had from the album before we heard audio from UO, Honeymoon was my favourite. Now having heard MQ in-store, Honeymoon is still in my top 5. I don't understand the constant hate for it at all. Her vocals, her harmonies are beautiful. The simple production amplifies it. It's very jazzy and classic, and brings me back to a different time. Especially the last half of the song I think is exceptional.. "dreaming away your life.." It's one of my favourites off the record and I wished more people recognized its beauty. Also - I don't want to set this in stone since I've only heard MQ, but I'm not too fond of Art Deco and I am extremely underwhelmed with Freak compared to the snippet.

Honeymoon - Pre-Release and Discussion Thread
Elle replied to ilovetati's topic in Retired Pre-Release Threads
Off of just the initial listen in store and replaying some snippets I had put on my story (so not listening to the full song more than once) - The Blackest Day God Knows I Tried Honeymoon Religion 24 High by the Beach Salvatore Music to Watch Boys to Terrence Loves You Freak Swan Song Art Deco Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood This will most definitely change after I listen to the HQ audio when it's released. -
Lana will be at Rough Trade Store in London for a Honeymoon signing.
Elle replied to naachoboy's topic in Latest News
Someone should ask about her tour plans - When she's going where and such. I'm a little paranoid she might not tour the US since that's the only place (besides a few Canada dates) she toured for Endless Summer, although at both of the shows I attended she said "I'll see you next year." Either way, I'd like to know what locations she's doing first, if she's still doing amphitheaters, etc. I'm always looking forward to the next time seeing Lana. Also, congratulations @@annedauphine!! I'm so happy you get to meet her, you seem like a lovely fan -

Minor General Questions that Don't Deserve Their Own Thread
Elle replied to Monicker's topic in Lana Thoughts
Yep, it's been pretty much confirmed it's Josh. Apparently Video Games was written about him as well (he low-key mentioned it on social media, plus he plays World of Warcraft often, which when a fan asked her "what video game was he playing? League of Legends?" she replied "World of Warcraft." Also, based on social media, all of her family pretty much still keeps up with him. -
I'm going to snapchat it for this same reason. I'm going to post my snapchat in the thread or the status updates so people can be updates & that way my battery won't die before the event is over lol.

Elle replied to ilovetati's topic in Retired Pre-Release Threads
I'll be blowing up my snapchat on the day of the UO event with recordings, so I'll probably put my snap id in the status updates in case people want to follow it (I would periscope, but it drains my battery ) -
@@luckyonewithoutyou Here are the pictures of the posters I took: Possible at select locations since some UO stores don't seem to know about it. Free lithographs given with pre-orders made at the event.

Honeymoon - Pre-Release and Discussion Thread
Elle replied to ilovetati's topic in Retired Pre-Release Threads
The UO is in Atlanta GA (and I know a few other LB members live here too!) although I've confused a bunch of members about this poster with my location saying LDN lol. I'm originally from there, but I've lived in Atlanta for about 4-5 years. -
