Hey guys,
 
Wow, I literally last logged on here about 4 years ago! I still fucking adore Lana.
 
I'm so into her unreleased songs at the moment. I found this article on some of them and thought you guys might like it. I seriously adore the way this person writes about her and appreciates her cinematic Hollywood aesthetic.

I love how they put 1949 as number 1 - I have never, ever heard anyone mention even mention it. I personally think it's a little work of art and is what made me read Lolita. Controversial as it is, if you like Lana, you need to read it - it's like dipping into her brain. She references it so much.. "swimming pool", "Carmen"... so many of her symbols come from Lolita.
 
I swear I would have put these unreleased songs in at least my top 20. What do you guys think of them?
 

The line delivery and the way she says "don't be scared" in 1949 is p. great

in no particular order and just random off the top of my head
because all her songs old and new are great and I have never heard a bad song written by Elizabeth Grant
or sung by Lizzy and Lana
 
D A M N you
Pawnshop Blues
 Hollywood's Dead
Queen of disaster
Gramma  (this has always been one of my favorites)
End of the world (cover of the much missed, one of my  favorites, and such a really sweet person all the times I met and talked to her, Miss Skeeter Davis)
Meet me in the pale moonlight
Goodbye Kiss (cover in the BBC lounge)  (tell anyone who ever claims she cannot sing live, to listen to  this song,
(and ain't it so cute how she is so into the song/singing it, she gently bumps her nose into the mike)
Serial Killer
All I need
JFK
 
wish I could hear her doing Leonard Cohen's Dance me to the end of time
 
 
 
btw- I think 1949 is listed first because in some alphabetical listings, the songs with numbers appear before any that start with a letter

Oh my god, I adore these too.. I really can't pick if I'm honest. I LOVE Hundred Dollar Bill (but one version is significantly better than the other). Actually, i had an incredibly vivid dream featuring it last night. How funny. The lyrics are genius though.. "cash comes quick when looks can kill" "nothing more gorgeous than a 100 dollar bill".

they're really nice songs, though not my favorites (only jealous girl + velvet crowbar)
 
my top 10 would be:
playground hundred dollar bill be my daddy resistance you can be the boss dum dum your girl velvet crowbar jealous girl hollywood's dead there are others of course (HIT AND RUN!! PARADISE!!!! and the classic serial killer) but these are my faves i think

I'm glad you're still a fan, how do you like the 2 latest singles?
 
Also let me plug these links - read these articles on some of her unreleased tracks

I'd love to get a risky Lana type tattoo, just a small one saying something like 'Coney Island Queen'. However, I think people have to be SO careful about text, especially if it's someone else's message. Sad and hard to imagine as it is, Lana might very well mean nothing to you in 20 years. Do you really want lyrics on your body about her tough years of degeneration by alcohol -  true, they may be very beautifully written, and I do obsess over her lyrics and write them in books etc., but wouldn't want them on my skin. Also, on somewhere like the side of your hand where the skin can have some of those creases from your palm, it's probably going to stretch and look horrific quickly after. You need to research it so much.
Also, I'm only 15 and realise that I would regret it. I know people say 'surely you shouldn't regret something that made you happy when you were younger', but if I happened to become a doctor or something, I don't think I'd need the added worry at the age of 35 of having to remove a tattoo saying 'Degenerate Beauty Queen', or to have to hide 'trust no bitch' with thick makeup. I know that sounds really uptight and it's great if you have the guts to get a Lana tattoo, or any tattoo, but I'm just too boring and nervous xD!

I am SURE it's "BUMMED IT". that's what you do when you ask someone for a cigarette, you bum it. 

Not likely, because who would pawn a cigarette with someone's phone number, and who would take it?
And also because the next line is "I saved it" 

I meant it sarcastically...

Hi guys,
 
I'm sure there's some variant of this thread out there, but do you guys think Lana still uses hard drugs? I'm 100% sure she smokes top quality weed, but what about harder stuff?
 
I know she had a meth/coke/heroin trailer park (damn) faze a few years ago, especially around the time of "May Jailer", following her teenage alcoholism. 
 
I assumed she'd stopped hard stuff completely, but I can TOTALLY imagine her still doing the "opulent and glamorous" drugs i.e. coke and heroin. "Yayo" means "coke", even if it may be a metaphor, and someone cooks heroin in the West Coast video.
 
It seems obvious that she does hard drugs, because I know from experience (friends) that ONLY people involved with hard drugs talk about them, feature them in art etc. As in, someone who only smokes weed wouldn't make a song involving any imagery to do with heroin or coke. People who don't take hard drugs tend to find them distasteful and not at all luxurious or fashionable, right?
 
Do you think Lana manages to use class As carefully? She seems to be doing well at the moment and looks great. I just wonder because it's impossible to use something like heroin in a sparing, "glamorous" way without becoming addicted.
 
What do you guys think? If she doesn't let it ruin her life it's fine (i guess), but is it really possible to go on that way, lightly using cocaine?

Firstly, I'll start off saying that I absolutely love Never Let Me Go. I always mentally group this song with 'On Our Way' for some reason - mainly because both really show off her gorgeous voice, have strikingly cheesy country song sounding titles (reminiscent of Taylor Swift, but don't kill me) and are both an unusual type of song for Lana to sing, especially in her unreleased list.I think they're absolutely amazing, but sound very polished and, dare I say, mainstream (for alternative music) to be unreleased, if you know what I mean? They're just so smooth and her voice is so velvety, compared to, say, Velvet Crowbar, where she sounds passionately desperate and pleading, Tired of Singing the Blues, where she goes a bit all over the place (but I love it) and Every Man Gets His Wish.
 
In my examples, which are my favourites, Lana's voice is perfect but really varies and for ex., in EMGHW and in Motel 6, you can hear Lana laughing while she sings, maybe smiling at the absurdity of the scene in Motel 6 (for the latter). She really gives you a full, flirtatious image. That's why I love her unreleased music, but it is relatively unrefined in a charming way.  Whilst it's not mainstream at all, Never Let Me Go just seems so polished. I can't think of a better word, but it doesn't match her other music. Some of Lana's best unreleased songs are often a little 'trippy', 'sensual' or so alternative and daring/taboo that you can't imagine them on an album.
 
I think NLMG just really stands out for me because it's so smooth and.. practised? I don't want to come across as a hater because I adore Lana's less technically flawless sounding music, and it's all relative, because she's so fantastic. I just feel like it could have gone onto an album but was probably not dark enough/image inducing enough, or maybe the timing was wrong?

she takes gifts from fans, if she tries signing it or something just be like "no thats for you" and maybe write your twitter name on the back of the drawing?she wont remember/ hear you if you actually say it and also get there a lot earlier i have a feeling LA fans are hardcore
