  1. @RormanNockwell omfg Laura Linney is define. Great choice. For Lana HMMMM if it was a bio pic, Margot would be my vote. TV show maybe Natalia Dyer? Robert DeNiro as Ed Noah Robbins for Jack. ZENDAYA AS AZELIA BANKS The Lust for Life era featuring a series of guest stars and their wacky antics - Meryl Streep as Stevie Nicks, Jamie Foxx as ASAP Rocky, Danny Devito as Sean Lennon etc etc MICHAEL CAINE AS PAPA RICK NOWELLS
  2. Don't feel left out you two!! If you feel bad about missing the scat porn you can always Google it! xx
  3. I don't know what to think about this cover The arrangement is bad. The acapella is so baffling. It seems like they recorded the final track and then suddenly someon*e made a last ditch attempt to get Lana featured on it so she did the take in one go (and it shows) The vocals are a little too strained on Lana, and she doesn't quite know how to control her voice on the descends. I like that she tried and is finally using a whole register. The inclusion - and actually the whole soundtrack - is so naff... who is this for? The footy boys? The gays? BEN??? What's up with that orchestral track at the end? Lana del Rey, followed by indie guitar JAMIE WEBSTER. The pop song opener??? That 'Mazza' song??????? WHAT AND WHOMST IS THIS PRODUCT FOR. The piano is really nice and the choir is good but really really doesn't feel cohesive with Lana's vocals.

  5. @RormanNockwell a kindred spirit! I actually don't mind if she reshoots the cover to reflect her current state of mind, even if it causes a further delay to Chemtrails Over the County Club. There is a certain je ne sais quoi and beauty to the art of delay, dare I say a subconscious critique on our modern tendency to demand closure and instant gratification?
  6. I love her as blonde but absolutely support her she looks simply beautiful wow all hail the brunette!
  7. Lana cover Send in the Clowns, the Lanaboard's national anthem. original by Glynis Johns . . . who proves anyone with a bit of character can sing it!
  8. I can't wait for her to cover Adele, America's greatest living artist, who has produced both standards and classics. Wouldn't she sound positively bitching on Chasing Pavements. Lana sing Cosmic Love.
  9. omfg Llorando is just iconic. I listened to it like every day for a year after I heard it the first time. It's still a total knockout. With No Stars I remember I was really taken by it but I just revisited and it is soooo goooood. Her voice!
  10. Those are the original lyrics in the aria. While the song is a jazz 'standard', The Gershwin Estate actually still wields and exercises an extremely rigorous hold over the rights and performance of the song, which shouldn't/can't be changed without their express permission. It's much easier for artists to just adhere to Gershwin's original lyrics, so most covers include this line. For example - when Sublime used the opening melody of the song they wanted the lyrics to be "Doin' time, and the living's easy" - the request was denied and the use wasn't granted until they changed it back to "Summertime and the livings easy". You're correct however, the word "Mammy" has fallen out of contemporary use and is now considered offensive - it should not be used outside its original historical use.
  11. That's Blake! They both have pretty short hair though. I can't get over how is been 10 years and this band - who have been with her since day one - are finally in a clip with her. It's like an immortalised honour, and really shows that she values them. Plus this is their little project which really highlights musicality and I hope features them really prominently.
  12. The PRODUCTION IS OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZING. The band on the track is incredible!! I literally can't write any intelligent critique because I just love it all!!!
  13. I got like five seconds in and I had to stop, it is so good I had to go outside and scream. I didn't realise how I wasnt ready for it. Omfg this might be the best thing she ever made. I can't believe how beautifully inclusive this is - her band and friends are finally on a LDR record. They're on the cover and in the video. Sad, lonely Lana del Rey is DEAD and loving, wholesome fun Lana del Rey is dancing on her grave with people she loves omg.
  14. Really interested to hear how she will perform this, considering the original orchestration and vocal range. Doin Time samples the opening vocal melody and lyrics of Summertime. For anyone not aware, it's actually originally from an opera called Porgy and Bess.
  15. I can't believe Lana eradicated poverty with
  16. If I replied to everything I would be Man Shrugging emoji. Available in my next beautiful book of poetry from Simon & Schuster, out March 2021.
