Raise Me Up (Mississippi South)
2012: 35th place (52)

It's the voodoo, Mississippi south
69 million stars
Birds are flying out of my mouth
Spirits creeping in my yard

Hold my head, it's tilting back
Something dancing me around
Putting crystals on my neck
Lifting my feet off the ground

Ray-ray-ray-raise me up

Us Against The World
2012: 54th place (52)

If you want a good surprise,
I can do that for you.
If you won't believe your eyes,
I can do that for you.

What do you need to get high for,
When your baby's so die for?
Quit your job let's make a ride for,
It's us against the world.

Television Heaven
New Entry (52)
 
The future's lookin' bright as black tonight,
You tell me that our love cannot endure.
Baby, if it's wrong I don't wanna be right,
Oh, I don't know a thing, but this I'm sure.
 
There's nowhere on this Earth I would rather be,
Than in your bedroom breathin' heavily.
The way you're smilin', it's so deadly,
Honey, you are heavenly, t-television heaven with you.

Mermaid Motel
2012: 50th place (52)
 
Maybe we could go to Coney Island
Maybe I could sing the national anthem
Buy a white sweater for the last white day of the summer
Buy my purple wig for my mermaid video
Walk back to where we live in my motel
On Neptune Avenue
 
You call me lavender, you call me sunshine
You say take it off, take it off
You call me lavender, you call me sunshine
You say take it off, take it off

Heavy Hitter
2012: 63rd place (48)

I was lounging at the Chateau Marmont
Glimmering by the swimming pool
My man walked in like a slow-motion movie
I said, "You're so cool."

I heard a man screaming, "Lights, camera, action!"
I c-c-can't remember what happened
I overdose, you throw me over your shoulder
I was dying, you were screaming
Open up that Lamborghini

Dynamite
2012: 84th place (47)

You’re dynamite, I’m ready to blow
Take me out tonight
You’re dynamite, I’m ready to go
Touch me to ignite
Boy, you're a wild thing, rocking on my heartstrings
I can see the stars collide
Baby, hold me tight
Oh, you’re dynamite

Catch and Release
New Entry (46)

If you got the cash, lock it down tight,
I got the looks, you got my heart right,
And you love me, 'cause I'm just like neon,
Lighting up your night.

Give it to me, give it to me, everything,
You know how I like my world on a string.
I didn't want nothing from you,
Just to be like you, my king.

Fordham Road
New Entry (45 points)
 
I don't know why it is that I wanna stay
I don't know what it is that makes me feel this way
But I'm not gonna do what I hear me say
I'm just gonna walk, I'm gonna walk away

Jump
2012: 52nd Place (44 points)

Palm trees in black and white
Last thing I saw before I died
Palm trees in black and white
Was the last thing I saw before I died
Right line, right man
Right mixture of cocaine and heroin

Do you wanna jump, jump, jump?

Gramma said she'll leave the lights on for me

There will be no tied positions this year. Songs with the same number of points will be ranked depending on the highest vote for that song. For example, songs A and B both have 10 points:
 
Song A has: 5, 2, 2, 1
Song B has: 3, 3, 3, 1
 
Song A would rank higher in the Top 100 because it ranked higher in somebody else's personal favourites list. Please keep this in mind when viewing results.

All of these tattoos are a fucking nightmare. Never touching my body

I guess I should include this~ Fiona is nothing like Lana but she did stand up for her
 
http://www.muumuse.com/2012/06/fiona-apple-talks-new-album-lana-del-rey-to-interview-magazine-and-releases-new-song-werewolf.html/
 
I should also say that Fiona really hates the Criminal video and didn't want that to be her big hit, so if that's all you know of her definitely look into her other stuff.  The record label wanted her to be more like Alanis Morrisette and after Tidal Fiona completely did what she wanted.. (therefore, Tidal is v different from her other albums) she didn't want her career to become something based on a corporation or something she didn't believe in, I suppose.  I mean, look at those gaps in between her albums.  She has so much control over her music..look at the titles of her albums- "When the Pawn" set the record for longest album title, with 90 words. (She even shot the cover art for 'Extraordinary Machine' and drew the cover, a self portrait, for 'The Idler Wheel') In 2005, Epic wasn't going to release Extraordinary Machine because there wasn't a hit song on it.. but it mysteriously leaked online and actually got radio play and they were pretty much forced to. She basically has a label as a means to get her work widely distributed but it seems like there is always some sort of problem w/ releases, like apparently they backed out of promotion w/ "Dull Tool" which was used in the movie This is 40
 
Anyway, I am sad that it will probably be years til we get more stuff from her, especially because of what just happened at the Louis Vuitton show, but quality over quantity. 

no more old songs, enjoy them, they are old, they leaked, we can get over them, we need new material! right?

It doesn't surprise me that she has chosen this title. It just reflects the last two years of her career. She used to say everything was nice and easy, but since VG came out everything has changed for better and, equally, worse. Ultraviolence is the perfect title, I'm looking forward to listening to her ultraviolent swing.

And honestly, I think she puts out a new album so early on because of the terms of her contracts... Am I the only one?

idk ultraviolence seems like a pretty upbeat title to me. i kinda want her to introduce a completely new sound if that makes sense. that would be cool. like something thats nothing like btd/paradise

2013 is almost over (wow that was quick!) so now, it's time for the annual...

LANABOARDS ULTIMATE SONG RANKING 2013

It’s almost the end of the year and Lana’s song library has surpassed 200 tracks. Every year, Lanaboards holds an event when we, the members, vote for our favourite songs and then the results (The Top 100) are slowly published on New Year’s Eve/Day.

Last year, Ride, Yayo and Blue Jeans took the top spots but with the influx of new many leaks and unreleased songs this year, anything can happen in the Top 10. This is a great way to get involved in the community and to discuss Lana’s many songs. If you’re not a member of the forum yet, join this growing community and vote for your favourite songs today!
 
         
 
The Rules:
Only Lanaboards members can vote (signing up is easy!) You may vote +up 20 tracks and vote -down 5 tracks (for a total of 25.) Only votes via PM will be counted, please do not post your votes in this thread. But feel free to discuss. Please do not vote for remixes; they will not be counted (not even Summertime Sadness CG Remix). Live performances of one off songs are okay to vote for*. You can vote for demos but please do not vote for multiple versions of the same song** (exceptions apply***.) Voting period:
Voting starts December 11th 2013 Voting ends December 30th 2013. Reveal:
Results will be posted in a 100th to 1st countdown format some time between December 31st 2013 and January 1st 2014. While the counting is happening, members are encouraged to participate in a group discussion about the songs and their ranking. While the Top 100 songs are being revealed, I will reveal one of the Flop 10 songs after every ten is revealed; revealing the best and worst at the end of the countdown. Songs in 100th to 11th place will have a banner made by @@Ultraviolence. Songs in 10th to 1st place will have a typographical poster made by @@Rebel. This thread will be locked after the deadline, and the countdown will happen in a different thread.  
Participation:
Simply send me a private message with your song ranking by December 30th. There will be enough time to think about your list. Maybe you could consider listening to a few unreleased songs that you are unfamiliar with or re-listen to AKA and Sirens until your ears bleed! Tell all of your friends about this and please encourage members to vote! The more people who participate, the more accurate and interesting the final results will be. Click here to see last year's results!

 

 
What Not To Do:


 

 
Notes:


 
Prizes:
Since it's the holiday season, every person who votes will be entered to the Lana Del Rey x Jack Daniel's shirt giveaway! A true original, since I designed the print myself. I have an abundance of them since I have been selling them for a long time and I think it would be a great way to persuade everyone to get involved.
 
If you want a chance to get one, be sure to vote soon! I will also make a mixtape CD of the Top 10 or 15 songs in the ranking and send it with the shirt. Keep it or give it to a friend, it's up to you!
 
   
 
HAPPY VOTING!
HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
