    Hey first time posting here. Does anyone know if Lana has always followed Mike Dean on Instagram or if it is recent? Hopefully he worked on a few songs for RCS. 


    Causing a meltdown on LB with his/her first post. A legend :ma:

     

    Edit: Our names :tommy:

     

    Edit2: Look what great image the New Yorker used:

    Midway she's saying her line, she figures out it would fit best as a lyric for RCS and she just steps off the set to go quickly record a melody on her phone. :eartha::hottie:

     

    Maybe it has already happened and it's the reason we got the "You're killing me Joe" line on WAH :eartha:

    The Sputnixmusic review is so horrendous it’s worse then any of the shit Lana is currently upset over.  It’s so vile


    It‘s funny how I keep finding more of these reviews, even though they are already older:


    „Lana Del Rey cant sing“ https://www.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/blogs/blog-on-the-tracks/10192394/Lana-Del-Rey-cannot-sing

     

    „I hate Lana Del Rey: Del Rey is an overrated, wannabe hippie that glamorizes drug and substance abuse. And on top of that she cannot even sing. But hey, she does write some catchy lyrics: “Will you still love me when I’m no longer autotuned and faking my hipster attitude?”

    this scares me the way he worded it... like after her "music career" she could go into "acting" :((((((  like im sad about it, so weird if she went to become an actress :/


    She once said that she can‘t act. So I dont think there will be the 100th remake of A Star is Born with her :creep:

     

    Edit: All these Wendy GIFs :deadbanana:

    Translated most of the article except  for page 40 which is just a rundown of her discography, maybe @COCC is gonna translate that at some point? :creep: 

     

    Translation is a bit shaky at certain points, I didnt revise it at all but its still better than Google I suppose

    here you go

     

     

    Thank you so much! Let me add page 40 then (took some freedom here and there):

     

    Spoiler

    Deceptive American idyll

     

    Kill Kill (2008): On her first single, released under the name Lizzy Grant, Del Rey shows already the essential elements of her later aesthetics: The whispery singing, doomed love and self-stylization as American icon. In the music video she edited herself, she wraps herself in an American flag while wearing a Monroe wig. In between, she add grainy home videos of other people, shows amusement parks and crowded beaches.

     

    Video Games (2011): Lana is born: The video, shot by herself, shows her, apparently filmed with a laptop camera in front of a white wall, amidst a quick-cut collage of old Sunset boulevard images, vintage beach scenes and paparazzi shots of stumbling starlets. In contrast her singing: an elegy.

     

    National Anthem (2012): Del Rey whispers “Happy Birthday Mr. President” for Asap Rocky, who is acting as JFK. Then sun-drained Super-8 footage, home videos of the presidential couple, she plays Jackie Kennedy. It ends how it has to: with a shot at the car, panicking cops and the shock in Del Rey’s face.

     

    Ride (2012): In front of a monumental desert panorama, she swings in an old car tyre. Wide land, no longer in the hands of the natives: Bikers roam around, loaded with guns, sleeping in shabby motels and drinking at the gas station. Del Rey is the biker bride who is groped at the flipper machine. She’s wearing a feather head piece while her boys are making a fire.

     

    Ultraviolence (2014): In her wedding dress, she walks along a garden path. There’s a man with her, but all we can see are his hands. The invisible groom feeds her with cake and puts his fingers in her mouth. The shaky camera shows his perspective, he walks behind her, follows her into an empty church, and gets closer and closer to her, like a character in a horror movie. The lonely wedding is the beginning of a nightmare.

     

    High by the beach (2015): The Pacific glows blue, Dei Rey stands on a terrace in a bright robe in Malibu. A helicopter appears and is hovering menacingly in the air in front of her. She retreats to the apartment, flees from the noise and the downwind, but the flying paparazzi won’t leave her alone. So she climbs down the rocks, pulls out a guitar case, pulls out an uzi and aims. Happy ending.

     

    Freak (2016): She puts an LSD paper on FJM's tongue, he turns into a cult leader who is slowly swarmed by white-dressed women. They drink the Kool-Aid and disappear into a paradise underwater world. ,,Baby, if you want to leave, come to California, be a freak like me, too. ”

     

    Lust for Life (2017): Glamorous lives end in tragedy. The actress Peg Entwistle jumped from the “H” of the Hollywood Sign to her death in 1932. Here The Weeknd and Lana Dei Rey dance on this H, beneath them the night lights of the city, above them an impossible starry sky. Zooming out at the end: the Earth is a lonely planet.

     

    Doing Time (2019): Lana is about two hundred meters tall, pulls palm trees out of the ground like it's grass, climbs over the city highway like a Carrera track. It's the plot of a B-movie that is shown in a drive-in cinema. The gigantic Dei Rey descends from the screen like “Purple Rose Of Cairo” and disciplinedly rebellious (not sure if that's the right word...) spectators.

     

    COCC (2021): An American idyll in Technicolor: the sky almost as blue as the swimming pool, the old car blood red, ice cubes in the glass, the fruit from the market. But then: wolves and a hurricane, all eyes glow demonically, and Del Rey turns with her friends into bloodthirsty creatures of the night.

    I tried to order this from the German rolling stone website and all was well using google translate until the payment part. I’m not really sure where to put my credit card number, etc. based on what google translate was giving me. I’m going to try ordering it from somewhere else that might be easier lol I feel so stupid 

     

    Give me your credit card number and I will order it for you :yesnod:

    Just kidding

    why'd they have to use that frame for ride :air: 

     

    Because "she is in front of a monumental desert-panorama (...) that doesn't belong to the indigenous people anymore (..) She wears a feather headpiece while her boys make a fire". :creep:

    i started yesterday but got kinda frustrated w/ the article halfway thru, might continue translating tonight :rip: the author really isnt a fan of periods and translating gigantic mammoth sentences is pretty exhausting 

     

    We can share the workload if you want :umadney: Even though it's really not that interesting

    Lucky me didn't see the scat porn. Halsey going mad in COCC-prerelease was already enough for a modern day gay man with a weak constitution like me. But then again I want to be part of this community and stand by your side through all sh*t we have to go through :defeated:

     

    Anyway your vinyl covers are just gorgeous! Lana fire that lady already who created the lmllaw-font  :trisha:

     

    Also I don't think Lana is going to sing about her critics. I guess she will just continue to sing about the things that triggers those people (abusive relationships and so on). To show that she doesn't care what they say.

    I KNEW jack was holding Lana back I KNEW IT. The way she had to do the bare minimum for TWO albums cus he was scared of taking risks, and to think we could've been getting heavy drums and electric guitar masterpieces this whole time but instead we got tinny piano songs with no punch and no bass for a solid 3 years straight 3 YEARS STR8..
