  1. OUAD was released as a single. It had it's own cover and was released quite a time before the movie. It was even officially remixed. This was not the case for Big Eyes or i Can Fly. Burning Desire was a digital single similar to Carmen, it was never really released in a way that would count as a single. More a promo gimmick. HOWEVER Brooklyn Baby and Shades Of Cool were promo singles, if you count them you also have to count Terrence Loves You, Honeymoon and Off To The Races. I'm not sure if MTWBT is considered a single or a promo single, aswell, but I can't remember it being called a "proper" single. Black Beauty was announced as a single in Germany, but never was promoted or played on the radio or anything. All we have is the remix-EP which forshadows that it was planned as a single but most likely cancelled. And Freak was NEVER called a single by Lana or her management. It got a music video, but that's it. So did G&M, BA and BE but none of them are singles.
  2. The video will be scrapped but then it will be reused for LDR6. We'll have "skating indie girls" in every goddamn video
  3. It was never confirmed that he actually talked about Lana and I don't really consider a hacker who hacks an account and posts childish sh*t like that a relieable source
  4. Don't know ehy everyone's thinking there is a TLY video. Dark Paradis is not to confirmed to have ever been done (like Black Beauty, she just mentined she'd like to make a video). Don't really know where your ideas of videos for Cola and BBY come from either way. So the confirmed non-released vids are HM, PWYC and the original UV
  5. It's a differenc ebetween playing well known songs (Video Games. West Coast. Blue Jeans) and having a setlist that still consists mostly of "old" songs, with both of the more recent albums only having 3 songs on the tracklist. I agree that a nice mix of older and newer material is important, but not if you never stopped performing the old songs. Bringing back Carmen for example would be really nice, if she wouldn't already have played it on 80% of her concerts so far.
  6. Or maaybe it's just normal that you're not smiling all day.
  7. The "Freak belongs with Art Deco" hype is so stupid. The songs are gapkess on HM but apart from that, there is no relation between them, neither sonically nor regarding the lyrics.
  8. What did you expect? We all know she'll always stick to BtD live. I'd also prefer not having Carmen and Ride on the setlist and instead hearing TBD and BBY live but it's Lana. At least she did some "fresh"-er BtD songs (Lolita, OTTR). And I doubt she'll ever drop Cola, BJ and BtD and I'm fine with that since they are nice live. And the Freak/Art Deco thing is so overrated, the songs have 0 to do with each other apart from being gapless on HM
  9. Serial Killer, Lolita, Off To The Races, Freak, HBTB and HM ... What's y'all problem with the setlist?
  10. Love her look! She should keep it. And I really like the playlist. What did y'all expect? Apart from that, it's not even the HM tour. Glad she did Lolita and Freak.
  11. Never liked Alphabet Boy thst much but the video made me appreciate the track. She improved so much with her looks ... glad she's not looking like a clown anymore. The Cry Baby styling was already quite good but damn this AB look is great. The hairstyle is so ... classy.
  12. She looks great. Maybe she wants to let her natural hair color grow back. I hope we'll get a photoshoot. Plus I hope she sticks to the light hair colors, even though I like dark hair light colors just suit her so much better
  13. She's not forced to acknowledge you or give anything to you. You approached her in her private life and even though I can somehow understand you why you did it, you should be happy about the contact you had. You interrupted her privacy and she was polite. She's not owing you ANYTHING, so stop acting as if you are a poor neglected fan. It's so annoying that within many fanbases people think they are free to harass their star whenever they see them and that it's ok to behave super obsessive without considering how creepy this may come off for the star. If you are a fan you should RESPECT the person.
  14. Haha my impact I really love her nusic and I think her first album is her best one so far (I love The Lipstick On His Collar so much). Following her on FB, I wish Lana would promote her new stuff as much as Caro is still promoting her old one The queen of retro sound
  15. She nevr did jazz at any point, she just likes dome older jazz songs and loves to throw the word around. And she seems to be very comfortable with it, they played a jazz instru at the Maide session etc.
  16. I love Nicole's photos but I get what you mean. I also always think it looks off to display LolitaIn The Hood/ Gangsta Nancy Sinatra Lana, when her style changed so much in both a mature but also often much less glamorous direction. On the other side, who can blame them, there are not really a lot of "good to use" promo pics from more recent eras.
  17. The one song on HM where her indifferent lyrics are NOT out of place but actually quite fitting is HBTB though
  18. I agree with you that HM has a lot of great bridges 24 is wonderful and yeah, MTWBT, HBTB and TLY also really stick out. For HM, the bridge is where the song actually seems to lead to. However, I find the Art Deco bridge to be especially ... weak, compared to the other ones.
  19. The music she's creating is alternative pop though. Don't get me wrong, I don't dislike HM or want her to be super-popular (even though I don't mind her being) but her overall attitude during HM was alarming as it tended to be lethargic.
  20. The thing is that Lana is a pop-oriented artist and even if many people here really would LOVE her to be an alternative singer, she's not. And btw, even alternative artists do much more than Lana when it comes to performances, music videos etc. Their stuff maybe won't appear in the mainstream media, but they still usually provide a lot of material APART from the base album for their fans. Lana should care more because a) she is not an established artist in a way that she can go fully non-commercial and b) doing some sort of promo is also related to actually providing your fans some stuff.
  21. The thing is she's not promoting at all. Some super boring instagram pics on an account noone cares about and two sloppy radio interviews are NOTHING. Her music videos seem to be recorded in a way they MOST CERTAINLY won't be played at the TV and her singles get no airplay. On the one side, it's her choice if she prefers to not promote her stuff in order to earn money, but for fans it's really annoying not getting something interesting to watch/listen to. HM just stayed away from the "biggest flops list" because it could still surf on the waves BtD and UV made. If she's not doing SOMETHING for her next album and continues to stay in her super-comfort zone when it comes to music, like she did with HM, her career WILL decline.
  22. He refers to Lana Del Rey as the Edith Piaf of out generation and he constantly talks about what an innovative trailblazer she is ... are you really suprised about this delusion?
  23. Like I said, the parts are most likely from a cult inspired video. But I just don't think they are supposed to lead into this direction in the final product. In the end, it's just some weird red thing she drinks and it could be another reference to addiction.
