The Sun Also Rises

i honestly wouldn't be surprised if she had, like, 20 secret accounts  

If she wants to go country she needs to go FULL country. Not some boring vocal delivery with piano in the background. It lacks the spark original version of this song has. Why is she scared of her own voice?! We know she can do amazing things with it 

I want a studio version of Scarborough Fair pleaseeeeeeee

It’s a crazy amount of money for some paper butttt when the resale goes up to £100 like interview did I think we’ll regret not getting it —— actually just looked on eBay and someone’s selling it for £28 including shipping from America

SZA is the leading nominee with 9 nominations! Lana Del Rey received 5 Grammy nominations, including the Album Of The Year nomination!
 
Make your predictions! Who will win and who won't? Who has the better chances and who has no chance? Who is the one who sweeps all the awards? It's your time to guess! 

'was'? for me it's always the current period, what is new

i would also have to agree with 2013, the early ultraviolence sound, so many magnificent songs, like pink champagne, earthquakes, madly, unidentified flying bill, lake placid, fine china, and i talk to jesus were recorded around that time, i'd be happy to hear anything from that period of time  
 
also, obligatory mention of 2007 from me, it's certainly my favorite year of her artistry, at the start of 2007, her music was still very similar to the may jailer sound, she wore dreamy, long white dresses, wavy, blonde hair, and sang her melancholic, haunting acoustic songs like for k, pt. 2, and disco, she cut her hair in may of 2007 and slowly transitioned into more of the classic lizzy grant image in the summer, and started experimenting with a heavier, rock sound with her boyfriend at the time, arthur lynn, as evidenced by their live rehearsal sessions containing rock versions of brite lites, disco, and yayo, two other songs titled me and my boyfriend and it's not you, it's just me, and the live footage of yayo and brite lites that feature a heavier, edgier sound, she also started working with steven mertens, another boyfriend, that year, and with that, came spectacular songs like the mermaid motel demo, pin up galore, trash magic, the ocean, and wayamaya, her amazing and elusive surf noir sound, but steven mertens wasn't a one-trick-pony, he also produced demos that featured a more rural and rock-esque, like his rendition of brite lites and queen of the gas station, and let's not forget that she started working with david kahne in october  just such a fabulous period of time in her career that brought us so much amazing music that makes me feel like nothing else   

according to Universal Music, Take Me Home is a "one-off single", so no album in sight

Excited! Seeing Lana during the middle of my hedonistic summer in Europe is so fitting.

Lana will be playing the 7th -

WHATTTTTTTT it's so beautiful!
 

 
(also not me seeing this on Youtube on all places and thinking it was a spam AI cover at first )

the way I’ve already streamed this 25 times on Spotify… idk what it is with me and Lana’s covers lmfaooo to this day Doin’ Time is still my most streamed song on there

This is excellent. Good enough to be a lead single for the covers album, hopefully... 
 
Also Unchained Melody as final track would be incredible.

This album changed my life

well deserved

2 Billion mark crossed 

I love how you can really hear the 60’s girl group influence in a lot of the songs. I think I can hear this most on LFL, Cherry, and Get Free, where’s she’s doing these little “uhhh” “ahhh” “shoo wop” ad libs in the background. So cute.
 
I’ve been listening to Back to Black a lot recently, too, and I appreciate how both albums pull from the same frame of reference (60’s girl groups, Shangri-Las, Ronettes, etc) and still came out completely different. Lana veered more hippie and Amy ended up more Motown. 

I STILL ADORE YOU LUST FOR LIFE ALBUM SO FUCKING MUCH I'M STILL ONE OF YOUR BIGGEST AND MOST LOYAL STANS IN THE WORLD 

My name is Rorman and it took me 6 years to realise that she ditched the blanket or tarp or whatever she put over the mic for the final lines (past 4:00) of Get Free and they are purposely clearer to reinforce the point of moving out of the black "haze" and into the clear "blue"

Can we talk about how masterful and delicate Byron's playing was? I love him

our girl is trending !! currently #19

i feel like this is a full circle moment for LDR, A decade has passed since that fateful SNL performance where the producers swore they never would invite LDR again, an email also leaked calling her performance the worst in SNL history. now look at her

doing SNL lana justice

 

Love this performance, this beautiful and mesmerizing song, the tone of her voice, her beautiful dress, her hair, her make up, at Elvis home, the Christmas vibe...
Close to perfection for me.

probably one of the top 15 Lana Del Rey career moments ever. something about the performance really just does it for me. absolutely magical
