5 from each! well I don't consider BTD and paradise two different units. they sound the same, the lyrics are similar, the aesthetics are identical, they were released as a tie -in so... BORN TO DIE - PARADISE Born To Die Video Games Million Dollar Man Yayo (although lizzy grant version was better...still live the song) Gods And Monsters ULTRAVIOLENCE West Coast Cruel World Pretty When You Cry Old Money Brooklyn Baby

Guys chill. Making comparisons is totally normal. I think it's healthy for newcoming artists to examine the trends of their era and letting some of them influence their vision. No one's vision is a brick wall. It's extremely rare for artists to create a trend of their own. It sort of happened with Lana mainly because popstars of the time (Gaga, Katy) had reached eccentricity and provocation to the extent where there was no way back. Lana and other alternative pop artists brought simplicity and vulnerability back to the market. It was fresh and appealing back then. Now... I'm angry at people that think Halsey, for instance, owes her life to Lana. No she doesn't. She's got a talent of her own. On the other hand, I'm angry at those who act like they don't see the slighest similarity, It's like they're closing their eyes to the whole picture. Give credits to the one that should be given and then enjoy the music. That's all. Welcome Melanie and Halsey to the Family. They're the 3rd generation if I'm not mistaken. Lana and Marina being the first. Sky and Charli being the second.

I feel like I'm moving back in 2012... I am getting a Born-To-Die-like Badlands and an Electra-Heart-like Cry Baby all at once in the same month

you mean Elvis?

so....next possible day for the single release? i know it's not gonna be this one either but i want to soothe my pain somehow SO GIMME FAKE HOPES PEOPLE

YES YES YAAASSS!

I am mostly into sad/sappy music to be honest but idk I want her to go different on HM...I'm here for the Florida Kilos/Diet Mountain Dew type of feel even though they're like...my least favorites... I'm weird

goooosh stop. 8 1/2? La Strada? La Dolce Vita? Life couldn't get much sweeter?? Sorry I got carried away

50s vibe, jazzy with a soft grunge influence, noirish, more colorful, inspired by Mark Ryden, Picasso, Fellini, more similar to Born To Die, future-retro etc etc

HOW THE FUCK CAN U TELL THE SONG IS FILLER MATERIAL JUST BY LISTENING TO A LIVE ACAPELA SNIPPET??? I mean honestly...a live acapela snippet!? Think of your favorite song as a live acapela snippet! Can you even judge? Gosh... The way she described this record makes it feel as if she has put special effort to it and I don't know...this time I have the feeling it's going to be different. We'll see though!

As if everything else in this messy thread is on topic I wasn't comparing. I like both obviously. Flo is just really multitalented

Typical Florence fucking Welch offering lessons on songwriting, lyrics, performance and aesthetics once more...that woman's talent aahh

Yeah I thought more people would make that connection... For me, Froot was the first thing that came to mind when I read "futureretro"! Maybe cause it's recent

!

that sounds like froot to be honest... it would be interesting though
