Did you post this to mean that this photo is what the "Daytona Meth Edition" stuff was about? If so, was it just this single photo or others as well? Whose arm is she eating?

HM is her best major label album by a nose over UV.* HM & 24 are fucking masterpieces. GKIT, "Salvatore", & TBD are fantastic, and MTWBT & "Freak" have moments of sheer brilliance. I do not understand the underappreciation. I can only chalk it up to y'all being pace queens. Or being focused more on promotion or videos than the music itself. *The songs on BTD had the potential to be, but the overproduction ruined it.

Receipts? I've seen this asserted many times, but never with any actual evidence. This is not evidence of what you're claiming. Yes, the evidence does not back up Lana's claims suggesting her family is not rich, or that her dad had no role at all. But I've also never seen any actual evidence her dad played any hugely significant role in her career either.

I just stumbled across this. This is the both the worst thing ever and... kind of amazing? Please tell me there's a full length mashup or make one. I need it. (Less Robin Thicke tho.)

Lana should smile more. :troll:

I'm ambivalent about the album cover overall, but I welcome the return of the stylized "Lana Del Rey" logo from the "Video Games" single.

I remember when people thought "My pussy tastes like Pepsi-Cola" was tasteless.

How old is this person?

Receipts for this?

So what's the story on this?

Lana talked about this album being "political". But from this album trailer and the lyrics to "Love", I get that sense that while she might employ some political imagery (like Mt. Rushmore crumbling, Lady Liberty's flame snuffed out) in her videos, aside from a few vague platitudes (like "signals crossing can get confusing", "it's enough just to make you go crazy", "seen so much you could get the blues") her lyrics will be fundamentally escapist. I sincerely hope not. When she manages to avoid cliche, like on QOTGS for instance, she can depict broken-down America very evocatively. She needn't pen an anthem like "For You" (her most political song), but I would love to see her get very political on this album, but through story-telling, painting a picture. I'd also love to see it from a standpoint of personal and artistic growth. Despite whatever withering media criticism she may have endured, Lana has led a pretty privileged life and her music seems like escapist fantasy even when grounded in some reality. I would like to see some lyric-writing that is rooted in the real world even if spun from whole cloth.

While I'd love for it to be a hint about "Ruby Tuesday", I think it's just an example of this expression:http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Only%20on%20Tuesdays

Ahaha... yes! Dr. Evil's Hollywood Lair. I of all people should have remembered.

I swear the idea of someone living inside the Hollywood sign is lifted from somewhere, but I can't place it.

Wrong thread. Just a friendly reminder that this thread is for QUESTIONS. And not just any questions, but FACT-BASED QUESTIONS that are likely to be easily answered and NOT subject to opinion or discussion. Quoting the OP:

*If* the credits are mostly accurate-- in that she didn't write it, and it's not an Iggy Pop/David Bowie cover (because they should credited then)-- that would be the first time she's recorded an original song she doesn't have a writing credit on, no? @EdwardGallegos I just fucked two bitches 'fore I saw you... Fifty Shades Freed soundtrack? The Weeknd's "Earned It" was nominated for the Best Original Song Grammy and Ms. Soundtrack is still chasing that golden statuette...

Pretty much all of her May Jailer/Sirens-era stuff -- Jewel Girl was seriously channeling and influenced by her at that time.

Yes. A waning crescent moon at midnight.

Hmm... interesting question, which surprisingly (since I've checked with other artists) I don't think I'd considered before. But the answer is yes, and until fairly recently too: http://web.archive.org/web/20140903161225/http://lanadelray.bandcamp.com/releases Ugh, I wonder if it would have been possible to buy the Kill Kill EP in FLAC from there. She's since removed the tracks, and also has a lanadelrey.bandcamp.com account that has no tracks.

Of course there are tons of different fan-made edits people have made over the years. And some of the leaks we have may have been tampered with in some way on their way to surfacing. But that aside, off the top of my head, there are only six other fan-made edits that I will keep in my discography besides TMIL: A 320kbps edit of "Blue Jeans" w/ the string intro from the music video An EQed edit of "You're Gonna Love Me" made by @@Monicker A mashup of "Brite Lites" w/ Slayer's "Angel of Death" made by @@Monicker (just because it's hilarious) that I re-upped here A Y&B megamix I made syncing the single, orchestral, and demo versions (mainly because I missed the harpsichord from the demo) A remix of "Cherry Blossom" by Kristijan Majic aka @@butterflies A remix of "Santa Baby" w/ a higher quality version of the backing track by @ Obviously, there's no reason you need to keep these or just these. There's nothing canonical about this. It's all personal preference. But here's something I said before about why I keep TMIL: Basically, we know a recording like TMIL exists and this is the closest thing we have to it for now.

Before y'all run wild with this, I want to caution you to remember to black out names and avatars of private individuals and also not to post any mass dumps of her statuses.

Idk, I'm not even necessarily convinced "For K" and "For K Part 2" are necessarily about the same person.

Is it really only a few? This song came to mind immediately when she talked about that. That's kind of her M.O. She's commented in interviews how she's done that intentionally in some songs. Why would it have to be?
