Can't believe it's been almost 2 years since UV came out I miss being obsessed with this album

I have! Mine came about 10 days after it got shipped. It's perfect, and the audio quality is amazing.
 

The "Rich Whores" leak inspired me to look for more of her early stuff and I noticed something kinda neat. Remember that list of interests from Arthur Lynn's flickr?
 
 
According to this site, this was once the biography on lizzygrant.com. We've seen most of this stuff before, about the circus and whatever, but notice one more thing.
 
 
"Yo mama's apple pie?" The Arthur Lynnfluence lives on, I guess. I wouldn't be surprised if Arthur Lynn wrote that biography for her, now that I think about it. 
 
Finally, this one mystery was kind of cleared up. I wondered who the "tags & tim" listed as band members on this Sirens-era myspace page:

 
But a closer look at another myspace era page tells me they continued being her band members into the Arthur Lynn period. So they're old friends she continued playing with for a while. Kinda neat!
 

 
Continuing the Arthur Lynn info dump, I found out that "angiescreams," which was the username he used for flickr iirc, was also a band of his, and that the drummer for this band of his was also the drummer for the Rich Whores, Aaron Brooks! This band appeared to have existed from 2005 to 2009, so it overlaps with the "Rich Whores" period. I wonder if this was how Lana met Lynn? I'm especially curious about the fact that she got one of his drummers to join her band.
 
And for even more evidence that Arthur Lynn was a hugely influential boyfriend, check out the News section on that website...  "9.11.07 G-d bless America. G-d bless our troops." G-d is a pretty idiosyncratic way to spell "God," wouldn't you say? And it also shows up in that biography of Lizzy's up there! Now I really can't help but wonder if Arthur Lynn wrote that biography as a joke. Which she would be in on, of course. Or maybe their cross-pollination was so much that Lana just adopted that much of his humor, spelling, tastes, and interests.
 
Lanalysis is (barely) alive and breathing.

Of course it's better than nothing but the quality is so damn low that it sounds like one of those songs that come out of stuffed dolls when you press them.

Me and my boyfriend
We are a new kind of fun 
We dye his hair black
I dye my hair platinum
We are in heaven
We are trying to be punk 
Elvis and Marilyn
Yeah x4
Hey
 
Me and my boyfriend
We aren't liked a lot 
We don't have it 
We live our life to the song
 
Think I got most of it, I marked the ones I can't really tell in blue.

sometimes I forget how flawless her music is, one of the best. not a dud in her discography.

She has a chameleon soul~

OMFGGG ALL THE TIME I THOUGHT IT WAS REAL UNTIL I SAW IT NOW!! *MIND BLOWN*

I love these. "Vulgar Darling" is my favorite.

Lana Del Ray cancelled after today's events.
 
Ben's art direction for bbtm is gold I had to do it myself for this
 

Ugh this one makes me really wish the song was officially released

all i did was adjust the curves and remove marks on the polaroid 

I hope she does a photoshoot with blonde hair. Maybe for the new album. Give me Lizzy back!
