  7. This is easily in my top-10 Lana songs. It's truly beautiful. I recently introduced my Mum to Lana Del Rey and she told me a story of how her friend was at the same psychiatric ward as David Bowie's half-brother, Terrence (Terry). Apparently David would come to visit him regularly and they would talk about art, spirituality, and poetry (this was during the 1970s, I think). They were incredibly close, and David was apparently extremely down to earth, kind, and gentle. The way the song switches between the story of David and Terry and then Lana and herself, Lana and Barrie — so incredibly heartbreaking. The bridge makes me sob every single time. The bridge: "I put the radio on, hold you tight in my mind Isn't strange that you're not here with me I'm putting all the lights on and the television Trying to transmit, can you hear me?" Reminds me of this part of Fingertips: "To get to you, save you if I take my life Find your astral body, put it into my eyes Give you two seconds to cry Take you home, I, I'll give you a blanket Your spirit can sit and watch TV by my side" Both trying desperately to reach out beyond this world to someone who isn't there anymore ...

  15. Honestly ambivalent towards Nikki Lane and Breaking up Slowly is nowhere near even my top 100 Lana songs but I'm still excited to see what they cook up! I love that she follows her North Star and her passions. I hope their friendship makes something really beautiful and heartfelt.

  17. I actually really liked the song, it's sad and melancholic. Lana's voice when she does the melancholic sound is something special. The lyrics are beautiful, relatable, and perfect for long winter drives thinking about your life, and what could have been, and what will be I like Holly's voice, but I agree that her dictation is slightly off. It's got a bit too much of a slurred "drawl" for me. I think with a little more time she could truly blossom. Lana's voice is just incredible. Lately her sound is so rich and layered, gentle and caramel-y, full of life, and love, and loss. Their harmonies are gorgeous, and the moment at 3:09 is the perfect ending. I just wish the song was a bit longer, honestly. Suburban House is probably my favorite recent feature ... besides Buddy's Rendezvous which is one of my favourite Lana covers/features ever
  18. I haven't been able to get this exact need out of my head since I saw that photoshoot. Any and all of the shots from that magazine would be an instant buy. I really don't know why they didn't make a 7" with A&W .... yet Also, I finally received this update from the Canadian store about the Candy Necklaces picture disc: THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING FROM THE LANA DEL REY OFFICIAL STORE!

  19. The two of them with the sunset, the wind blowing, the beautiful horses and pretty dresses ... idyllic, ethereal, perfection
  20. "I'm flying to the moon again, dreaming about marzipan, taking all my medicine to take my thoughts away" v.s. "Walk in the way of my soft resurrection Idol of roses, iconic soul I know your name Lead me to war with your brilliant direction"
  21. Still no word from the Canadian store, but I did receive my last minute lucky U.K. order today ... only to see this
