The hate for it 6 years ago could very well have been my villain origin story. 

Hi everyone!
Here is a promotional poster for Blue Jeans that I edited, picture included. Hope y'all like it!

I’ll never forget where I was when I heard Terrence Loves You for the first time — I was staying at one of those lonely hotel inns for the night in the stretch between the city and the sea during a road trip along the west coast. It was the perfect setting to take in such a thoughtful, contemplative song. That was a surreal moment, and one of my favourite memories of experiencing the music in real time.
 
I love the idea of beautifying your life and doing things that make it feel pretty — experiencing that song’s release the way I did was one of those instances where I felt like life romanticized itself on its own, and this entire record definitely encouraged me to create moments like that from then on. 

Gross, this man using her line as a joke :/

wendy? IN WENDY? may jailer is COMING!  

Inspired by the new RSD exclusive!

Happy birthday, Paradise! I've always wished this project was a full length album rather than an EP, so here is that album in honor of Paradise turning 9 years old today

 

 
Note: in this version, it was released in 2013 rather than 2012. I tried to Nicole Nodland that cover, but I'm not a very good editor when it comes to that stuff lol
 
 

I'm back with another one  I actually somewhat shared this when UFB leaked, but here is Melancholia, inspired by those first UV songs 

Tracklist:
1. I Talk To Jesus
2. Angels Forever, Forever Angels
3. Unidentified Flying Bill (with Barrie James)
4. If You Lie Down With Me
5. Your Girl
6. Living Legend
7. Nectar of the Gods
8. Cherry Blossom
9. Yes To Heaven
10. Fine China
11. Chelsea Hotel No. 2
12. Riverside (with Barrie James)
 
Notes: The version of ITTJ used is the superior one that uses actual instruments, and the version of YTH used is the "Honeymoon" version that leaked a while back. Also, I included If You Lie Down because it's from this time period and it honestly just sounds really good after UFB
 

I made a status about this, but I decided I'm gonna share some Lana concept albums that I've been putting together lately. My main focus is the tracklisting and making it cohesive/like an actual album, so if you judge any of my cover arts, I will simply pretend you didn't  They function like an album, but also like a playlist if you ever wanna take a listen for yourself 
 
Here's the first one that I'll share which also happens to be my favorite that I've done so far: Teenage Wasteland
 

 
Tracklist:
1. Prom Song (Gone Wrong) 
2. Take Me To Paris
3. Television Heaven 
4. Puppy Love (Marilyn Monroe)
5. BBM Baby
6. Queen of Disaster
7. Dreamgirl
8. Hey Lolita Hey
9. Resistance 
10. Diet Mountain Dew
11. Afraid
12. Last Girl On Earth
 
Note: the version of Diet Mountain Dew I'm using here is the third demo. 
 
That's all for now, excited to share some more of these soon 

what if we (lanaboards) gathers up money to make the documentary ourselves... It would be super cool

I know that a lot of people say Born to Die is her most “commercial” album but I don’t think the songs are inherently “commercial” at all — while it was her most commercially traditional album cycle, I actually think that while the lyrical themes and stylistic choices resonated with people and garnered attention, it was really the image that was kind of painted for her by the public that made everything feel more “commercialized”.
 
I’m not saying that Lana and her team didn’t capitalize off of that for the sake of establishing a career — it is quite essential to becoming as well known as she is, and from a business perspective, it is quite genius — but I genuinely believe that it’s still as authentic of a record to her as the records that followed it. I rewatch and reread interviews from 2011 and I truly do see a woman who wrote songs for the simple joy of it and recaptured moments of her life in musical form. And correlating songs to real events and people in her life just reinforces that (not that we are entitled to knowing those things for the sake of actually believing in the merit of the music, it’s just amazing and lucky that we have those things to back it up). 
 
She quite literally is a creative genius who created a never-done-before soundscape through which her lyrics could come to life. I don’t think the “grandiosity” of the record compared to her later work negates the realness of her creative output, and it’s a shame that the record — while being lauded as an iconic trailblazer — is somewhat seen as “stale” by some parts of the fanbase. I listen back to the record and I hear so much stardom and interweaving of different places, things, people, and emotions to create a world that is just so immersive. Nobody did it like her, and nobody continues to do it like her. 
 
This is just my rant about how Born to Die as a record really is the mother of so many things. I have so much respect and appreciation for it and really want to help restore its legacy to the actual music and the things that have made Lana such an enigma, icon, and legend, but also a friend, nurturer, and comfort in music over the last 10 years. That record is innovative to the nth degree and its classics like the title track, Off to the Races, Blue Jeans, and the song that started it all — Video Games — are history. 

I reverse the curse on your bloodline for being tasteless
It doesnt have to

Kevin:

back cover leaked:

Bummer lmao
Hope the final is similar to that demo then (I still don't think they were the ones who leaked it tho- most of the time, ppl just like to leak and put the blame on someone, as a joke)
