NO MONICKER YOU NEED TO REMAIN SEXLESS AND MASKED

Also "Nabokov Whitman" on a finger. Only vaguely remember the "die young" one...if so, EEK

Beg to differ...

What if it was a Diet MTN Dew demo, but recorded with the Phenomena?! Thanks Indulge this theory for a second, please, I'm feeling pretty good about it: Lana has gone on record saying that her first three singles--"Video Games", "Born to Die", and "Blue Jeans"--are a trilogy. As a fanbase, it's our job to read really far into this. A safe point to jump to is that these songs are a trilogy in the sense that they're all about the same love story. I readily accepted this for a while and assigned this trilogy to her criminal love story, K. "Blue Jeans" has the most detail of any of these three songs, specifically relating back to "For K", so this as a logical jump of intuition. But if you think about it, really think about it, these songs don't have any particular details in common. Sure, they're all mournful. But it ends there. Just recently, some stalkers insiders made it vaguely apparent that they were positive "Video Games" is about Mike Mizrahi. Mike's story doesn't cohesively fit with the mysterious K's, so we're all left in the dust of that trilogy theory. But that's how Lana herself described it--a trilogy. So what if these three songs aren't a trilogy in the sense that they all connect back to one guy, but that they connect to three separate things she holds dear. For instance, what if this trilogy is about the three most important loves of her life? It makes sense, doesn't it? She cast Bradley Soileau in "Born to Die" based on his appearance, which bears some striking similarities to Jimmy Gnecco's. And just reading this thread, it's impossible not to get the sense that these were Lana's most important relationships--held above Bill and possibly Chris and whoever she dated as a teenager. "Video Games" being about Mike, "Born to Die" being about Jimmy, and "Blue Jeans" being about K. Problems with this: - Born to Die. Very K, right? Wrong. Who's to say that she means die in the literal sense? She sings last thing I saw before I died, and lo and behold, she's not dead. - Bradley Soileau, the model equivalent of Jimmy Gnecco, is also in "Blue Jeans". So that song must be about Jimmy, right? Wrong. See, she was already in a professional relationship with Bradley at that point, and maybe even a less-than-professional one. People were fascinated with his image. Business-wise, casting Bradley was a natural move. She originally cast him for "Born to Die" based on his looks--but did she ever say the same for the decision in "Blue Jeans"? As far as I know, the answer is no. Shower me with praise or comments.

I'm in too deep, I can't even fathom how Monicker, who at least spends a chunk of time here fangirling and not just listening to her album, can't be interested in the digging. Someone call for help Can't decide whether it's for me or for him

How are some of you alright with her being a zombie, though? I know that's a cute question and all but I do not fuck around with the living dead :imbeingsarcasticbitch2:

I like that it sounds kind of shitty--makes me imagine it in, like, a mixtape format. Can you imagine that? If Lana had a hip-hop mixtape? Oy.

Hoping Lana never writes a "fan song" a la Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Ke$ha...basically all the people that have names for their fans. Sets her apart.

Marry Elvis, fuck James Dean, kill Audrey Hepburn. (That's the most content I've ever felt after deciding on a choice in this thread.) Your grandma, your grandpa, your dad.

LIPSTERS That one's just so funny and ridiculous that I like to use it

I see the simple beauty of "I am my only god" getting that praise Wish it wasn't only facial features...I love the heart shape her ass is

You're a genius, like...:), look at this bitch...he wanna fuck the shit outta you...look at you, you gotta be in your late thirties... He'll be, like, squeezing on your buns and all that shit. Doing all that perverted shit.

Honestly where is she? I chose Josh Rachlin because he's really hot and the only memorable part of the "Carmen" video. Bradley is pretty pleasing to look at, at least in the videos he stars in, if you forget his gnome personality. But I'd sooner take Josh to funky town. A$AP is just kinda stupid, but I like to imagine them as friends Unfortunately, out of all four of them (including Jaime :imbeingsarcasticbitch2: ), she really did have the most chemistry with Bradley. So those videos are sexiest.

Lemme put off my homework and do this real quick 1: When did you first discover Lana Del Rey? January 2012, what with "Born to Die" being free on iTunes. 2: What was the first song that made you fall in love with her music? Well I obviously had her album first, and my first "wow" moment came with "Off to the Races"...but I really fell in love with after getting more into her unreleased material and hearing "Get Drunk". That song in particular is way more my style than most of her music, but I've gotten over it over time and would say that all her songs are now my style. 3: Favorite Lana hairstyle: This dark brunette--I love the classic curls and the waves on the "Ride" single cover and the pin-straight look at fashion week. It's just great. 4: Favorite live performance: "Without You" at Amoeba, "Video Games" at the iTunes Festival, "Brite Lites" (heavy metal-sounding version), and the rarities like "Heart-Shaped Box" and "Happiest Girl in the USA" 5: Favorite lyric: I am my only god and the entire bridge of "Every Man Has His Wish" 6: Would you make out with Lana if you had the chance to? Probably not. 7: Favorite facial feature: The little dent at the end of her nose :3 Non-facial? The heart shape her ass is :creepy: 8: What's one thing you don't like about Lana? She's dishonest in some areas--facial work and age come to mind. Also the songwriting style on Born to Die 9: Have you ever met Lana? No 10: Who's you favorite artist after Lana? The Smiths, the Mountain Goats, Placebo, Lady Gaga 11: Would you say you're obsessed or just a really big fan? Obsessed 12: What if Lana was secretly an evil zombie would you still love her? No, fuck that.

Stop double-posting The Killing Type - Amanda Palmer & The Grand Theft Orchestra

For giving me seizures with her sig.

Some interesting connections with Reeve and Jimmy, beyond even Lana: - We've already seen that they performed together, more than once. - Jimmy Gnecco sang a song on the Spiderman soundtrack, and Reeve played Spiderman on Broadway. - Jimmy Gnecco was good friends with Jeff Buckley, and Reeve is playing Buckley in an upcoming biopic. Obviously unimportant, but still--fun

I prefer SitarHeroinFiend. "Axl Rose Husband" is pretty over-looked and kickass. It's lyrics shit on most of Born to Die.

It was Mermaid Motel and Yayo until she came along with Burning Desire.

I intend to, but right now there's some trouble with editing longer posts (that not only I am experiencing). Haven't even been able to update since the "Get Drunk" revelation. PS, could you read Arthur's blog? One post was password protected when I tried accessing it.
