COLACNT

lulz. can you imagine them on like, stage together? fireworks shooting out of gaga's tits, before she starts cavorting on one end of the stage, while lana shuffles around awkwardly, perhaps twirling on the other

she's beautiful, strange, and wraps herself in american flags. i'm pretty sure the japanese feel positively about her

They seriously look and sound like someone face-fucked them for 3 hours straight.

Okay, I need major sources for this news of a video for Radio and a video for Dark Paradise directed by Woodkid. That would be fucking flawless. I feel like I do remember hearing that- maybe during her interview with Ferne? Maybe I'm just pulling shit out of the sky... idk. Honestly, she should make videos for all of these before she ends Born to Die:
- Cola
- Dark Paradise
- Off to the Races
- Radio
- American
- This Is What Makes Us Girls (I have SO many ideas for this one- a short slasher horror film would be incredible)
- Body Electric
- Yayo 

And with her doing so much film work now and perhaps taking time away from planning a third (second?) album, she SHOULD really delve into making videos for these songs. I would actually really be happy if that became a focus for her for a while. Really fleshing out concepts for videos and working on some editing. I'd love homemade versions (like Carmen) for all the songs because i think they offer such an in depth Lana-unique perspective to all her songs. When she makes those videos, they are made of the clips, colors, images, themes that SHE sees in those songs. I think thats amazing. Thats what captivates me about the homemade videos. I think Carmen is my favorite.

i'm always impressed with how great she manages to make the clothes look

"After a dinner meeting in Los Angeles last spring, he saw her kick a cab that cut her off as she was walking away. "She cursed out the cab. I saw her do it, but she didn't see me. She was very New York in her reaction. It was irreverent and funny. She epitomizes the loose-cannon star."

brite lites -- it gets better and better every time i hear it. she's singing like a strung out beauty queen with only one goal in mind (fame), which i think explains the repitition of the lyrics. there's hints of desperation and vampishness in her voice, and when she throws in the the verse with the 'trampoline', she adds an additional layer of tragedy / tainted innocence. simple, yet complex. not to mention its catchy as hell and seemingly impossible to get tired of

Hmm, it's been a while since i've read a post in which i am in complete disagreement with every single aspect and detail, as well as the way in which the opinion has been formed.
 
It seems to me that you're projecting your thoughts and values on aesthetics onto her process, and assuming that she was attempting to approach her music videos in the same way you would have made them. How do you know her point was to a) take into account cinematographic considerations and quality in the same way that a director of photography on a film set would, and b) "convince the viewer that the overall odd scene is taking place in an ancient, somehow vintage-ish, setting"?
 
I've always taken her videos as a melding of old and new, past and present, and i think that point comes through pretty clearly when watching them. There is a considerable span of time and culture that is seen throughout all her videos. I don't see any evidence anywhere that she is trying to hide or distort time/era/place in the shots of herself. Also, did you forget, perhaps the most telling and obvious example, Video Games, which is replete with footage of skaters, paparazzi shots of young actress Paz de la Huerta, and, of course, contemporary video games?
 
As for the hooker wigs, you may have missed this detail, but Lana Del Rey and kitsch are inextricable.
 
I've said this a few times on here before and i'll say it again because it pertains exactly to this: Lana Del Rey is a quintessential postmodern artists. That whole "vintage" aesthetic that people love to reduce her to is stifling and, most importantly, not even accurate--there is no way that someone like her could have existed in any other time but the present. She's not just rehashing old tropes. I wouldn't be here right now if that's what she was about.

I love the homemade videos the are so interesting and so unique like no other artist would do that

I've never really been a true fan of like, anyone, I don't think. but I feel a bit of a connection with her, in terms of her visual style, her overall demeanor (awkward, but often misconstrued as bitchy or even worse), and her whole 'world' in general (what with the various shades of narcissism, girlish emotional torment, and daddy-heavy love). My focus in school has always been science, but I feel as if she's allowed me to tap into a more creative side of myself (re: fan art). ultimately, despite the depressive and often fucked up undertones, I think she's made me more optimistic about life, and people in general. no easy feat.
