I thought I'd make lyrics threads for the fan-made full length version's of the Paradise songs. Please note that these aren't the final, official version, it's just to keep you satisfied until the release. Words in red means I'm unsure what they are, and '???' is where I have no clue. Feel free to contribute. In the land of gods and monsters, I was an angel Living in the Garden of Evil Screwed up, scared, doing anything that I needed Shining like a fiery beacon You got that medicine I need Fame, liquor, love: give it to me slowly Put your hands on my waist, do it softly Me and God, we don't get along, so now I sing No one's gonna take my soul away I'm living like Jim Morrison Headed towards a fucked up holiday Motel speed sprees and I'm singing Fuck yeah, give it to me This is heaven, what I truly want It's innocence lost Innocence lost In the land of gods and monsters, I was an angel Looking to get fucked hard Like a groupie, incognito, posing as a real singer Life imitates art You got that medicine I need Dope, shoot it up, straight to the heart please I don't really wanna know what's good for me God's dead, I said, "Baby, that's alright with me." No one's gonna take my soul away I'm living like Jim Morrison Headed towards a fucked up holiday Motel speed sprees and I'm singing Fuck yeah, give it to me This is heaven, what I truly want It's innocence lost Innocence lost When you talk, it's like a movie and you're making me crazy 'Cause life imitates art If I get a little prettier, can I be your baby? You tell me, "Life isn't that hard." No one's gonna take my soul away I'm living like Jim Morrison Headed towards a fucked up holiday Motel speed sprees and I'm singing Fuck yeah, give it to me This is heaven, what I truly want It's innocence lost Innocence lost

Hi Spivey, we understand that some people may or may not have The Paradise Edition, and that's fine. But, when people start advertising the fact that they might have it, is where the issue arises. It's best if you just keep quiet about it, then we can prevent drama's occurring such as the previous one. However, the issue has been dealt with and the posts have been deleted, you must understand that threads like this just keep it going? We're also not bothered about what goes on in other fan forum websites, so we'd also appreciate it if users could stop shouting out accusations of "he said, she said, on this/that forum." I am going to lock this thread, so that people understand the rules.

It's so cute! I wish I had one like it.

OH GOD! Why do this to me? Born To Die

Out of all the Lana songs, the Blue Jeans bridge is my most anticipated part, "We went out every night, and baby that's alright, I told you that no matter what you do I'd be by your side, Cos' I'm a ride or die, whether you fail or fly, well shit at least you tried. When you walked out the door, a piece of me died, told you I wanted more, that's not what I had in mind, just want it like before, we were dancing all night, then they took you away, stole you out of my life, you just need to remember." It get's me everytime. Also the bridge of 'This Is What Makes Us Girls' is just stunning too. "They were the only friends I ever had, we got into trouble and when stuff got bad, I got sent away I was waving on the train platform, crying cos I know I'm never coming back." I must have a thing for bridges because the Backfire bridge is another one of my favorites. I also love the piano in 'Every Man Gets His Wish', it's definitely on of my favorite elements to the song. Bridge of National Anthem, "It's a love story for the new age, for the six page, we're on a quick sick rampage. Wining & dining, drinking & driving, excessive buying, overdose and dying." The opening like to Born To Die, "Feet don't fail me now, take me to the finish line. oh my heart it breaks, every step that I take, but I'm hoping at the gates they'll tell me that you're mine." I also love the orchestra in that song too and the end. So many good musical moments!

1: When did you first discover Lana Del Rey In December of 2011 whilst watching the Born To Die video, I will never forget that moment when I first laid eyes on her. 2: What was the first song that made you fall in love with her music Born To Die was the first, and I had it on repeat for a while. But then i heard Without You, and that was it. 3: Favorite Lana hairstyle Ash brown / auburn beehive 50's style. But, I do ador the big, glamourpuss dark hair she has in the Ride video. 4: Favorite live performance The 'Without You' performance in California, oh God. 5: Favorite lyric That's so hard. I guess it has to be, ugh there's too many. "Everything I want I have, money, notoriety & rivieras" Always sticks out in my mind though. 6: Would you make out with Lana if you had the chance to? No, I think that would be awkward. But, I'd hold her tight, and never let her go 7: Favorite facial feature Her eyes, there so beautiful. They're full of so much sadness, yet so much joy at the same time. 8: What's one thing you don't like about Lana? That she smokes, quit baby you don't need those fags. 9: Have you ever met Lana? No, but I will before I die. When I see her in concert though, I'm going to scream "I love you Lana" so fucking loud and jump up and down that she will have to take notice of me :) 10: Who's you favorite artist after Lana? Amy Macdonald, she has a different writing style to Lana, but it is equally as beautiful. 11: Would you say you're obsessed or just a really big fan? Borderline obsessed. I just have so much love and respect for her. 12: What if Lana was secretly an evil zombie would you still love her? Of course I would still love her, I will never stop. But, that doesn't mean that I can't stop liking her. And, if it came to it, yes I would kill her if she was an evil zombie.

24. She wants to take me down to Paradise and lick me like Vanilla Ice

who is she up against?

Yes I actually forgot about Burning Desire for a moment, aha. Updated OP with new details.

Okay guys I'm changing the date to Friday 9th November, same time Try not to listen to the album before then.

Oh really?!? Have you got a source, because if that's true then we need to re-arrange the date.

Wait maybe I should do it on Reydio, then everyone will hear it at the same time, but there would be no talking from me, just the whole album the whole way through. I'd create a separate chatroom though.

Wow! That's amazing. I hope she knows that we will be buying the album, and most of us have pre-ordered it. It's just better if we have the listening party as soon as the album is released so that we can all enjoy it at first together, then once we have it we can enjoy it for the rest of our lives.

There are more legal issues me downloading the songs then uploading them to another website, then playing them when I don't have permission to do so, than just playing the songs other people have uploaded to Tumblr.

Hey guys, so I made a thread about this before, but we didn't have much information on the Paradise Edition back then so I just wanted to re-create a thread to let you all know that I still WANT this to happen really bad. Okay so the first country that the Paradise Edition is released in will be is Australia on Friday November 9th. I want to have a LanaBoards listening party of the album when the it's released so that we can all listen to the awesomeness in unison and maybe Lana will hear it all at once with her angelic ears and will know of our existence! We would start with Born To Die, Off To The Races right the way through to Bel Air & Burning Desire. Please state your country below and I will try and work out what time it will be for you. Some of you may need to stay up really late, but you know we need to sacrifice our lives for Lana so it will all be worth it. I'm thinking that we create a tinychat and chat for about half an hour to wait for everyone to get here, then we play the album! We can discuss it REALTIME! Times First country that it will be released is Australia so we will have the party about 24 hours after its first release. London (United Kingdom) - Nov 10 @ 11:25pm GMT Los Angeles (California - USA) - Nov 10 @ 3:25pm PST New York City (New York - USA) - Nov 10 @ 6:25pm EST Berlin (Germany) - Nov 11 @ 12:25am CET Dallas (Texas - USA) - Nov 10 @ 5:25pm CST Sydney (Australia) - Nov 11 @ 10:25am EDT Paris (France) - Nov 11 @ 00:25am Now I know some of you want to wait until your copy arrives, so if you still want to join us then feel free but you will have to squeem and suffer from the descriptions of the songs Now I think the way we'll do it is through Lana Del Reydio. So after half an hour, once everyone is in the chatroom (link will be provided closer to the date) we will go to www.spreaker.com/show/reydio and that website will play the album the whole way through, it just makes it so that we can all listen to the album at the same time is all. I will be taking down the songs straight after the party, because I'm still expecting you all to buy it Remember the link: www.spreaker.com/show/reydio

Yeah I was going to say, it's obviously a cigarette. Anywho I'm going to leave this thread as those girls are making me super jealous right now as I've not even seen Lana in the flesh and I think I'm about to cry so bye.

I guess it depends on which way around you heard of her. If you heard her voice & liked her music then saw her, it wouldn't matter because you enjoy her writing skills and songs so her face is just the face that is attached to that. However if you watched a music video of hers on mute and she was really ugly you'd probably close the tab, however because she's stunning, if you watched a music video of hers on mute you'd be captivated by her beauty. I remember listening to Sia for the first time and never seeing her, and I just fell in love with her voice. After googling her, I didn't find her face matching to the beauty of her vocals and artistic skills, because she's not very conventially beautiful. But like other's have said here, if she wasn't beautiful then the way people may have treated her throughout her life could have been different. Therefore the way she turned out could have been different, which wouldn't be the Lana we have today. It's a bit like The Butterfly Effect, you go back in time and kill a butterfly and all that... could change everything. She most certainly wouldn't have gotten into modelling which seems to have been the start of her media career so things could be different. Thinking about if people would still like her if she was ugly... I think many people wouldn't because they wouldn't have given her a chance, which makes me sad, but it's a part of life. I don't want to go into too much detail but I will use Lady GaGa as an example. I don't think that, without the fecade Lady GaGa is all that beautiful at all, physically I mean. But, she uses costumes and props to get people to notice her so that they can notice her music, and look where that got her, she's the most popular star on the planet.

So cute.

^^ Yeah I feel kinda uncomfortable watching the dry humping on the pinball machine, maybe if the guy was hot, but he's old, fat & greasy looking, ewww :/

It's just flawless, I don't.know.how.to.explain.how.i.feel.but.its.fucking.awesome

Aw, this sounds so heavenly. I'm glad you got to meet and touch her, it sounds very cool.
