  1. Ocean Blvd (album) and Let the Light In are certified Gold in Canada (40,000 units)
  2. The Grants is one of the best gospel songs ever. Also it's just incredible how life affirming it is. She was ON A MISSION with that song.
  3. Right now it's Zodiac ofc But I also want some unreleased that make us all go crazy and rewrites Lana's history like Pink Champagne. Like we knew it was a UV outtake but we definitely didn't know how different it was.
  4. It’s not entirely bad; I actually found the composition to be very interesting. What made me stop listening were his voice and the suffocating clown sound.
  5. La Nación (Argentina) ranked Lana snub as the worst of the Grammys https://www.lanacion.com.ar/espectaculos/musica/premios-grammy-2024-lo-mejor-y-lo-peor-de-la-gran-ceremonia-de-la-musica-en-la-que-taylor-swift-hizo-nid05022024/
  6. I feel like we need to discuss this much more. Her outfit was so so so Ocean Blvd; to me, she completely captured the essence of the album and made it a look. The moment I saw her, I was like, she looks ready to accept the AOTY. It would've been a beautiful image.
  7. In a different universe, Let the Light In would've won Best Pop Duo
  8. Wait On Our Way reworked actually sounds like an excellent idea... COME ON LANA
  9. Billboard Women in Music 2023 is still the most iconic award show ever on LanaBoards. When she finally received her award and the broadcast stopped
  10. In 2014, Cedric Gervais won Best Remix with Summertime Sadness; Lana was not awarded for this. In 2024, Taylor Swift won Album of the Year, which includes a Lana feature, but again Lana was not awarded for this.
  11. Lana (5), Olivia Rodrigo (6) and Jon Batiste (6) were the most nominated artists without a single win at the Grammys 2024.
  12. I'm really disappointed because, just like most of you guys, I was so confident she was taking home at least one award. I know it's a competition and I don't want Lana to be a victim but this is all so unfair. Everyone was getting their awards, and nothing for Lana? Who was second best selling woman in the world, even more than the people she lost against? Who had one of the most monumental, critically applauded albums of the 2020s? Who didn't stop making the news for her magnetic performances at some of the most important festivals in the world? Who had the most talked-about album of the entire year? Midnights was the Best Pop Vocal Album, why give it the AOTY too? What Was I Made For won Best Song Written for Visual Media, the category it totally deserved as it was, well, the best song written for visual media of the bunch? How does that song reflect 2023 as Song of the Year, and not A&W with its actually thought-provoking lyrics? Boygenius for Best Alternative Music Album; I know The Record was acclaimed too, but in what world Ocean Blvd wasn't the alternative album of the year? The one that's actaully left-field, deeply conceptual, with multiple sounds, instruments, dynamics and lyrics that actually represent the alternative side of music; topics that aren't talked about, that are feared by most, and not as explored as they should. Why give This Is Why Best Alternative Song, when its parent album won Best Rock Album? Couldn't they, really, give anything to Lana? If this is a popularity contest, yes they all deserved... Miley, SZA and everyone else; but 2023 was undoubtedly Lana's popularity peak, and it only seems to rise. How, seriously how wasn't she awarded for that? What does she have to do to have this level of mainstream recognition? She doesn't need it, of course, as she's a critic darling, a festival darling, a GP darling... everyone loves her. She hasn't reached the tip of the "music industry" iceberg, but does she really need to? Prime TV, the Grammys, the Oscars... maybe her fate really is to be a trailblazer, watch all of her disciples come and go, grab the gold and the applause, but she will remain strong and influential, discussed and forever relevant. I love you Lana, and I love you Ocean Blvd; others are thankful for seeing their favorite artists reach #1 and undeservedly break Grammy records; I personally am thankful for experiencing the music, for being part of this global movement that is Lana Del Rey, driven by her pure talent and timeless songwriting. By the way, she looked breathtaking.
