Lana from Nylon: "I base the entire record on one song" = Black Beauty. Black Beauty is undoubtedly a 2013 track. Since the three are from December 2012, yes they could be new songs but I don't think they are for the new record. Seems like Rick uploaded them just to say "I produced these" and add them to his portfolio.

 

Starry Eyed seems to have looped verses and SE/Hollywood/JFK do not seem as polished as AFFA. I know Black Beauty still sounds like an electronic demo so any of those songs could be reworked for the new record.

I wonder what a stripped down version of Hollywood would sound like....

I was going through a rough patch, a really shitty patch, and her music really was healing to listen to.

I heard Video Games, and then listened to the Born To Die + Paradise album repeatedly. It was really refreshing to listen to someone actually pour emotion into a song, it felt like there was meaning when I listened. Her voice speaks right to you.

It wasn't until much later that I started researching more about her.

You could?

Ok you're right, im wrong.

Lana said that usually she writes the whole album around one world or specific sound. Like In Born To Die she wanted a dark cinematic sound mixed up with heavy hip-hop beats, that's why songs like KOL and DICWB didn't make it for example. So it's right to assume based on her previous works that songs like Hollywood and JFK weren't intended for a new album, because lyrically and *sonically* they're far away from "spiritual and stripped down" ( how she defined her new songs). But again, the only thing we know for sure is BB

I can agree with that, but like I said, just because she isn't (might not) be using them right now, doesn't mean it won't fit a future project.

This is possibly the most made thread on these forums, how many have we had for just this subject exactly?

Sorry, new here.

I feel like people are really digging deep into "what sounds the same" to determine what songs were meant for an album.

I could make arguments for either side. I could argue that Angels Forever sounds like Dark Paradise, based on the composition.

I have to say that I agree with evilentity on the "receipts" debate. There is always an opportunity to create something new, that doesn't quite fit your project at the time...

What does everyone think about Queen of Disaster , Playground, and Serial Killer? When were these leaked (post Paradise production? or before?)

Black Beauty, Starry Eyed & Hollywood. They all have the same style and they were all on Rick's site together. I'd like the new album to sound like this, it sounds like a natural progression from Born to Die and Paradise. I hope she doesn't put them on the record though and records new songs. I like these but having three out of probably 12/13 songs like half a year to a year before the release makes the new record a lot less exciting.

I really really like "Hollywood" ....I almost get the "Born to die----> album name" feeling from that song.

Out of all of the (more recent) leaks, which songs do you think were intended for the next album?

We already know that Lana intended for "Black Beauty" to be on the album, but if you had to pick other ones, which would they be?

Maybe start the list like this...

1. Black Beauty
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.

8.

9.

10.

(Doesn't have to be 10, just a set number, you can go above or below!)

After finally being able to find and listen to all of Lana's leaked demos/music, this was just a thought that came to mind!

"It's coming you little bitch"

Dead.

@@Yoshi @ go to 'delreymasterpost.tumblr.com' it was just opened.

I am attacking this site like a rabid animal at the moment...hoooly shit!

This is the best thing i've ever set my eyes on. Thank you so much!

Thank you, thank you ! Happy to see you're enjoying it ! Means a lot seeing your comment

Thank me? Thank you! lmao!

I downloaded all of your music from that website (awesome, by the way), and I would just like to throw in that you are legendary for giving us that version of "Heart Shaped Box" live. I cannot get enough of that, literally cant.

Oh and I think i posted about your "Hundred Dollar Bills" remix earlier in thread......but i'll tell you again how amazing it is.

Every time I hear the Jay-Z lyric drop its just like Im done, I cant.

Wowwwwwwwwwwww! I dont even know what to say....this is really good.

*hits replay*

Please dont stop making these

Is there a top-secret lanaboards database that has all of the leaked songs ( and their many versions) ? I really want to complete my leak collection, but can't find a lot of the ones you guys are talking about.

Dude.....

I am obsessed with this. This is the best.

DOLLA DOLLA BILL YALLLLLL

Ok.....to whoever can do this, please move/merge this topic because obviously that seems to be an issue.

Katy Perry thread, yepp! Please move it!

 

 

 

If everybody would think like that   we would have millions of threads here including the same old stuff members have talked about before.  No need that one song gets its own topic.

......

Ok wont happen again.

Made the title more specific. But to LanaBoards: should this be in the KP thread? Or do you like single release discussions? !!!?

 

Anyway I liked it for approx. a day but it didn't move mountains for me.

In my opinion this needs to be its own thread

...BECAUSE!....

This is so different from what we have seen from her, I feel like it should foster comparison discussions.

Also, I really want to see what people think about Katy Perry's "singing" on this song in particular, because she hasn't "sung" a song like this before

She eat your heart out

Like Jeffrey Dahmer

 

lel

 

not rly my thing :/ i didn't like roar either so i don't think this album is going to be for me

I actually wasn't a "HUGE" fan of Roar either, but I understand why other people like it.

She is releasing "Walking on Air" on September 30th, so we'll see what that brings.

Ok you guys, lets talk Dark Horse (feat. Juicy J) by Katy Perry

What do you guys think about Katy's latest release?

I liked this song when she debuted the 30-second snippet, and I was excited to hear the full thing. Now that i've heard the full thing, I have to say I could have went without Juicy J. Instead, Katy hitting some high notes and a few cool runs in a different octave would have been a better fit for that part of the song.

But....

I guess Juicy J's part could have been WAY WORSE, so i'll live.

I've been waiting for Katy to go in a darker direction with her music, and I appreciate the direction she went on this song.

.....and you gotta love a good trap beat.

"Dark Horse"
(feat. Juicy J)
lyrics.....

DARK HORSE IS SO GOOD!

.....I could do without Juicy J.....but whatever.

I've really liked the song since she gave us that 30 second snippet.

Hollywood definitely has a special place in my heart.
.....there have been many days where this is on replay with the bass turned up.

The lyrics really give me that "fantasy" feeling, and I really like that. Also, the way Lana sings this song really brings the lyrics to life.

The imagery I see in my head is also that of a 1960's fantasy. So I guess I see a Lana music video in my head!

My favorite part is definitely....


Oh, oh
C-can you see me
Oh, oh
My heart beating fast
I can feel it chasing in the speedlights
I was built to last

Oh, oh,
C-can you feel that
My heart shaking fast
I can feel that
You're the one for me
You'll be my first
You'll be my last

 

She has the......

"Does it look like I give a shit? Im going to the coffee shop, not prom"


....look on her face

When I first read this, I honestly thought it was a joke or he was just trying to get a rise out of people.

(which the latter seems to be the result)

"I'm mad that Lana Del Rey is on mainstream radio"

* stares into space directly above computer screen*

Gods and Monsters is in my top 5 favorite Lana Del Rey songs.
 

I really like the idea behind the song, and it has some of my favorite lines from her.

Fame, Liquor, Love give it to me slowly

Me and God, we don't get along so now I sing

Cause life imitates art

Ah, Serial Killer just kind of jumped in their by accident.....in that case I would like to revise it to....
