Jerome back on .fm posted this once, and I love it. It's a whole new style to the song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J6TIpptvb1U

Could've sworn the date for Sirens from ldr.fm was 2006, and the only thing prior to that was "Money Hunny".

Does anyone else love "Bedroom Hymns"? I'm worried it's overlooked.

See my flawless signature. Bandwagoned that shit like a mug

That is huge! How exciting!

More Cure fans! I don't know precisely, I'd guess 87-89.

Mr You're on Fire Mr - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Love her, can't wait for her album. My favorite songs are "Luxury", "Fierce", and...well, the whole of the 1991 EP.

I remember that interview, I kinda of assumed she meant going from her sweet, angelic Sirens voice to her Lizzy Grant-era voice, but it just seems to keep getting deeper as time goes on. With the help of a studio or intimate setting, it's convincing, but live she really goes for those LOW notes and it sounds more like a groan. That isn't to say she can't sing well with this style--Goodbye Kiss, for instance--but she shouldn't push it to the extremes as much as she does.

You know you're right, what with...is it "baby" in the DY snippet? I think I meant more "studio enhanced", if not necessarily autotune.

Wonder which country will get it first...

I don't want them on the release, don't get me wrong. The more I listen to Born to Die, the more I see it's theme as "dark side of the American dream", in Lana's words, than just glamorous, heartbroken woman. Those two would totally fit with this. I think they would have been very appropriate on BTD, in fact, but perhaps they were left off for a reason. Imagine DY and HD alongside Without You or Radio. It's fitting. And the more Lana insists on forcing her voice to go deep, the more autotune we'll see.

ednafrau, you're so insightful! If I ever forget to listen to anything, it's usually BTD tracks ("Diet Mountain Dew", I literally forgot about it for so long) or demos. My master Lana playlist covers several eras and I listen almost every day.

Interesting--I've heard things about Lana's age not being quite exact, but never that she physically looks to be in her 30s. I don't see it. I'll keep the opinions going: Her deep voice is forced as hell, she should drop it. I want to hear "Blue Jeans" sung in her natural AKA voice, so she doesn't sound like she's barking in concert.

Need this mix now :imbeingsarcasticbitch2: It's really different and interesting, but fits right in with songs like Mermaid Motel. It could have been a reject, as it was recorded in a real studio and not acoustically. However, it seems the only information we have on it are the dates.

Someone get Dale Cooper over here, he has the best Lana .gifs.

I will consider this

Can we get a "new content" button? Disappeared in this last update.

But you've only heard one song. I think there's bound to be more than stuff like ISTBE. If it's a final statement on Born to Die, which includes upbeat songs like OTTR, NA, and DMD, then why shouldn't we expect something similar? Even "Will You Still Love Me..." seems more subdued than dramatic. I think ISTBE is a pretty dark song, but maybe it's to the Paradise Edition as Carmen is to Born to Die. Pretty dark, but not out of place. I think those two sounds, thematically, fit in perfectly. However, I don't think they'll be on this release.
