  2. I'll just record it, hopefully she wins something.
  3. 3 minutes until we start, head over to www.spreaker.com/show/reydio and refresh at 25 past!
  4. It's just my brother is a complete a-hole and always uses my computer for 'webcam time' with random girls at night and I just don't think i'll have access to the computer.
  5. I don't think i'll be able to make it to my computer in time.
  6. Firstly, I would like to say how much of a good job Lana has done on this record - it truly showcases her amazing songwriting, vocals & the production, par from one or two songs are great. However, compared to Born To die, I'm unsure. Born To Die still seems so fresh and new & unique and totally different to anything I've ever heard, it's really hard to compare it to Paradise. I mean, I know it's meant to 'finish it off' in a way, but I feel like the songs are SO different on Paradise they shouldn't have attached it to the album - but I guess it was just a marketing strategy on the labels part. I don't know if it's just me, but Paradise just seems to be over so quickly, like many of Lana's songs in fact, they're all very sudden I find myself having to repeat them over and over to understand - but that's art I guess. Anyway let's move on with song rating: Ride 4/5 - Overall it's a good song, not one of her best, but it's good. I don't know if it's just because I'm bored of it as it has been out for ages, but I always find myself skipping this track. The lyrics are good and it has good elements of production, but I don't know how I feel about it - I actually find it the weirdest single choice EVER, but then again so was Video Games and look what happened there. American 5/5 - This, for me personally is my favorite song on the EP. Lyrically it's not amazing although it does have some beautiful lines, but it's the melody that really draws my attention & the chorus just fucking slaps bitches right in the face. It really connects with me in a personal way, because it's one of those songs I can feel like I can relate to - Even though, like any Lana song, I'm not 100% sure what she meant when she wrote it, I feel like i have my own interpretations of it that I can fit into my own situations. The only thing I don't like about this song is the line "I don't even know what I'm saying" - I just dislike it very much, it's just as bad as the line "I'm writing this song for you" that some artists feel that they have to put in at least one of their songs - NO JUST NO! Cola 5/5 - I wasn't looking forward to this song as much as some were, but once I listened to it I must say I have joined the "Cola Craze". I have had the melody stuck in my head since i've listened to it and have been singing the line "my pussy taste like pepsi cola" out loud in classes all week i probably look like a right weirdo, but it's infectious & seductive & it makes Cola. It's definitely a guilty pleasure. Body Electric 3/5 - I loved this song when we first heard it live, and now we finally have the studio version I feel like time has passed and that I don't really like it anymore. Don't get me wrong overall it's a blazing song and it is a very well thought out piece, but personally I can't feel the connection. Blue Velvet 4/5 - It was a perfect cover for Lana and it just kills, I twirl when I hear it and that's always a good sign - it's a nice little breather from all the emotional lyrics from the other songs, so I'm kind of glad she has included it into Paradise. Gods & Monsters 5/5 - For me it ties with 'American', I just can't get enough. I don't really know what to say about it rather than it's one of the most electrifying songs that i have ever heard from Lana - it's a masterpiece. I've seriously been thinking about getting "Life Imitates Art~Life Isn't That Hard" tattooed somewhere on my body in a few years, it's just so simple yet so true. Yayo 4/5 - I like Yayo, I really do. I'm not going to write much about this - But I'm just going to say that i prefer the AKA version, simply because I don't really like her dramatic vocals on this version - too overproduced. I'll stick with the AKA version. Bel Air 5/5 - "You're divine, didn't anyone ever tell you that BEL IS A FUCKING MASTERPIECE OF A SONG, THE PIANO OMFG, THE LYRICS OMFG, BEL AIR OMFG". Burning Desire 4/5 - I just feel like this & 'Ride' should swap places, that is all.
  7. To be honest, I think "American" & "Bel Air" should be the only singles from Paradise to follow "Ride" - I love "Gods & Monsters" & "Cola", but I think they should be kept exclusively to the album because I don't know if they would do that well - "Body Electric" is great, but I'm getting a bit tired of it & I just don't think it's single material - "Yayo" I'd love if she made a video for, but yeah I don't think it should be a single, it's too long, and too special to be popular. "American" & "Bel Air" - definitely yes.
  8. Feeling happy, healthy & energized for the day.
  9. If doors open at 7pm do you think arriving at 2pm is too late or should I get there earlier?
  10. Who cares about single sales it's all about album sales these days fawk you Rihanna Lana knows how it is.

  12. If I get to go I will probably turn up at about 2pm/3pm and wait till 7pm I know it's not that hardcore, but i wanna look pretty for Lana lol.
  13. Yeah, the other thing I would look forward to if I was going is meeting new friends! As I'd be going all on my lonesome, and I would wait in the que from the early hours, talking to true Lana fans for the first time would be fucking awesome! Does anyone know the rules for wanting to run to the back of the building after the concert to wait for her to leave so we can see her?
  14. But I don't have any money and I'm worried that if I don't buy them straight away as soon as they go on sale they will sell out Plus if I can manage to squeeze £25 out of my parents and the tickets are like £30 then I'm screwed. The wait until Monday is going to be excruciating.
  15. OMFG just died*~ Does anyone know the price because I'm broke right now and need to squeeze some dollar by Monday for these damn tickets! I'll go to the Glasgow one, even though it's the other side of the country and 15 hours drive, but it's because my Gran lives there and she'll feed me & pay for my bus journey LOL! I'm dying....
  16. I think it might be "Motel speed, squeeze & I'm singing"
  17. Yes, they're better suggestions
