she should've asked her about all future release plans in detail and her 10 year career plan and political views and aka lizzy grant and go go dancer!

+ "unreleased" write in down on the picture with the writing of born to die 

if it's not part of an unreleased collection i dont want it 

i think this is her best album i want lana rerelease this album officially 

My fave lyrics from each track of this absolute GEM. It's probably my fave album to listen to from start to finish
 
Kill Kill: Love you, I do/ Stay here, I won't/ The stars fade from your eyes
 
Queen of the Gas Station: Look at you smoking in the neon lights/ Under the thunder/ Yo you look so nice
Oh Say Can You See: The night time is almost ours/ To wander through alleys/ And look at the bars/ Nighttime is almost ours (her delivery of these lines )
Gramma: Don't cry, honey, crazy girl/ Don't you know you are the world?
 
For K Part 2: I like the way you wear your sweater off your shoulder/ The way your hair comes down and makes you look older/ How'd you so handsome, my boy?  

 
Jump: Palm trees in black and white/ You are a junkie on your window smiling wide 
 
Mermaid Motel: Maybe we could go to Coney Island/ Maybe I could sing the national anthem 
Raise me Up (Mississippi South): I can talk what I want/ How I wanna/ I don't have to talk taste for your mama/ No, no, no  (PLS this song goes so hard)
 
Pawn Shop Blues: Well, I pawned the earrings that you gave me/ Golden metal flowers dangling/ And I almost cried as I sold them off
Brite Lites: 
Put Me in a Movie: You can be my daddy 
Smarty: Say I make you feel like/ Like you did, like you did, when you were thirteen/ Say I make you feel like/ When you were the dirty heavy metal king
 
Yayo: It only takes two hours to Nevada/ I wear your sparkle, you call me your mama
 
 
Lizzy Grant you'll always be famous ♥

they'll never understand and appreciate AKA like we do

facts - don't let tiktok destroy this underrated piece of art

AKA’s arguably one of Lana’s best works. The lyricism, vibes, experimental/grunge sound… she put her whole methussy in this record. When i listen to QOGS i feel like I’m actually inside the song, actually it’s a perfect soundtrack to a roadtrip. We have to gatekeep this one 

Anyway I hope it happens and she puts "Velvet Crowbar" and "Tired Of Singing the Blues" 
thoughts ?

if she does do any random songs i really hope it’s not just 30 second acapella snippets where she sings as fast as she can and reads the lyrics off of someone’s phone  

I want electric guitar and drum driven Candy Necklace because deep-down I'm an Ultraviolence Whore.

Yes, that's true, and we've discussed it here many times. Like so many musical artists that began their careers and found their success while young or youngish, she's matured. She hasn't remained static by choice and or circumstance. She's in early middle age, let's face it. Priorities change, and if she marries and has a child soon--one or more--we're very likely going to hear a lot more songs like 'Sweet Carolina' and 'Grandfather' and a lot less like 'Ultraviolence,' 'Honeymoon,' and '13 Beaches.'  
 
Lana said long ago that she "sort of grew up in a Carly Simon household,' and I said here a few years ago that that Carly Simon influence is coming through, whether she realizes or intends it or not. Songs like 'Arcadia,' 'COCC,' and 'VFR' are very Carly Simon-like, as are even 'Hope' and the 'NFR!' title track, and Simon made an entire career of singing about her famous husband (James Taylor) and lovers (too numerous to list here), her privileged upbringing, her paralyzing shyness, her siblings, and her children Ben and Sally. Lana and Carly are both Cancers, by the way--family talk and obsession comes naturally to them. 
 
Being older than some here, I wasn't nearly as thrilled by the 'UV' production or sound, especially on 'Cruel World,' as I'd heard many songs like that before. But I realized then that, for many, 'Cruel World' was something like their introduction to that sort of a sound.  

Lorde is fun to listen to but looking back she looks soooo bad saying allat. Her criticisms about Lana mean nothing in the long run. I'm not talking about streams or success really; I'm talking about the long-lasting legacy Lana will leave behind... and Lorde's lack of it. Lana changed pop culture and has cemented herself as one of the best singer-songwriters in American history.
 
Ultraviolence is another sound that I wish she'd return to, I admit for nostalgic reasons, but I remember hearing it for the first time and having a moment with myself and thinking, "Music can sound like this???" I was youngggg but even ten years later I really haven't heard anything like UV. Cat Power's Moonpix maybe, but there's something about UV's psychedelic production, mixing, lyrics that really nothing can compare to. And quite frankly I don't even want to listen to an album and think "Oh wow, this sounds like Ultraviolence"–– it can stand alone and be its own thing.
 
In terms of Ocean Boulevard, I don't really know why people are convinced that her lyrics and ideas are so different from how she started. I'm gonna have a hot take here (if you disagree pls don't flame me but I've been thinking about this for a while) I think Born To Die / Paradise is a collection of songs chronicling the epitome of naiveté and youth. Her music is NO LONGER NAIVE. She's wiser. I think this is why people claim she's being pretentious in her new music... when really, I think people want her to stay young and stupid forever especially in a society that celebrates youth. She has different priorities now, and even in her more mature age, she STILL sings about those similar ideas

I need to play the Hollywood Bowl again it was the best  I'm too old for these nasty festivals

I need to play the Hollywood Bowl again it was the best  I'm too old for these nasty festivals

I need to play the Hollywood Bowl again it was the best  I'm too old for these nasty festivals

Even this song during the 50s sequence 

Dynamite for barbie movie please

even after 9 years after its release I still know why it's my favorite lana album, all of the incoming leaks are just blowing my mind like the OG album ... Dan's production is pure heaven! I really love her pre-poetic writing. It's crazy how they ended up using just 11 songs for the standard album (16 in total) when the they recorded 30+ Songs for that project. Ultimate dream would be that they'd release 10 or 15 Annivesary Edition on a 2 (or even 3) CD Set with all well produced outtakes and some demo's. I also prefer Pink Champage over the COTCC Version (it would fit so well after MPG & before FMWUTTT or before Flipside). I mostly prefer her OG Songs over the re-produced ones (Thunder, Best American Record). Would love to hear the UV Version of If you lie down next to me (even tho I love the BB Version as well).  I also wonder which songs her label and Adele's Producer heard, the final tracklisting or maybe some outtakes as well? god bless this album!

would be amazing if she released a special edition of uv on its tenth birthday… 
including demos, yes to heavem, all the other barrie songs, etc.  
 

It's insane that songs like Fine China, SYTH and Your Girl didn't make the cut but at the same time there isn't a single song I would want to replace on the album cause all of them are so excellent and showstopping like... even Guns and Roses! The ultimate option was to make it a 20 song album  quality AND quantity iktr! But sacrifices had to be made I guess.
