I swear like 75% of the candids we've got of her in 2016 have been of her going to a hairdresser

I'm here for this haircut back and I'll fight every single one of you   I'm living a perfect delusion

hey @@Trash Magic, 
 
have you done any other vhs-ish covers with the similar aesthetics to this one?: 
 

 
i love it so much and am using it for my unreleased album, and really want covers with a similar vibe for my instrumentals and demos albums. 
 
thanks in advance

Oh I just understood what you meant..
The post you quoted was my vote.

Immunity lasts for one round, Flipside won't have any immunity next round (unless it gets the most immunity votes this round).

So I don't paint anymore mainly because its to time consuming especially with the lifestyle I lead at the moment and i constantly nitpick at my projects etc. However sometimes I see an image and I'm inspired.This took about a month and a half to do but it was worth it in the end. This feels like my magnum opus to be honest

I relate to Lana on a much simpler level than a lot of you, but I think I'll still post it here-- also, kudos to everyone who shared on this thread (especially those who were so brutally honest about themselves! That's not easy  )
 
The aesthetics of Lana's music and visuals are what initially drew me into her music, and are likely what have held me the most fascinated-- like Lana (and especially Lizzy!) I've always been fascinated (read: obsessed) with kitsch, Americana, and white-trash living-- probably why songs like Trash Magic and Pin-Up Galore rank among my favorites. Maybe it was growing up in a mobile home (in the American South, no less) that gave me this fixation, and so I connect very deeply with the images that run through her early work. I don't think it's any coincidence that trailer-trash Lizzy is my favorite era of Lana's work, and that the happiest time in my life was when I lived in a trailer that we decorated up with Christmas lights year-round. (No kidding-- looking back, we also had a hallway we called the "Florida hall" because it was so beach-kitsch-- and it looked straight out of a Lizzy vid-- teal walls, curtains with palm trees and flamingos all over it-- the works.) 
 
So, videos like the ones for 'Gramma' give me an almost painful sense of nostalgia, not only for the times when I lived like she did, but also for a time I'll never get to live in-- the same idealised, past world that Lana has written about-- one where JFK is still king, the open road is still alive, and motels still have their own seedy glamour, among other things. Maybe it all sounds pretentious, but I am so genuinely happy that Lana has recorded and created such a wealth of material that speaks to me on such a personal level. Do any of you connect to these aesthetics and visuals the same way? (If so, hit me up, because we're moving into the nearest trailer park ASAP )
 
Now, y'all better start leaking some more 2007/8 Lizzy for me after this heartfelt piece of work-- I need white-trash Lana in my life 

Hi there everyone! After like 5 days I finally finished my Be my grandfather cover! I've probably worked on 7 different covers for this one song but I know for sure it'll be worth it. Waiting for the full thing to leak is brutal. I remember I was so intrigued by the title when I first saw it registered, I automatically contacted John to find out more about the song and he gave me some info on it and then basically told me to fuck off lol. Ever since then I lowkey lost hope but thanks to Mr Hakan he made it possible again! It sounds like everything i've hoped for it to be. A complete, sexy, upbeat, trashy, playful BOP. I'm so ready! Haha I also wanted to take the time thank @Eclipse for giving us songs/ snippets that we honestly thought we'd never hear! Thanks to @unleaked on twitter as well for rural songs! You guys are so dope! we def appreciate you! Anyways I wanted the cover to be playful, sexy, and electric. She originally had cat ears and a tail but this is what i settled for .. Enjoy XXX

I agree! Ever since finding out from @@Eclipse that two of my favorite Lana tracks, Trash Magic and Pin Up Galore, were produced by Steven, I've been dying to hear what production he gave to AKA, as it's my favorite album! It'll be a match made in heaven 
 
And, I don't believe there would be a version of Smarty-- I'm pretty sure that was one of the two tracks, along with Gramma, that Lana and David wrote in-studio.

While Lana Del Ray (commonly known as AKA) wasn’t Lana’s first studio album -- that honor goes to Sirens -- it was her debut on a record label, and her first album to be sold commercially. AKA’s history was turbulent, which probably owes to much of the mystery and misinformation that surrounds the album today:
 
 
As noted above, the formation of AKA brought about many demos and outtakes that didn’t make the final cut, including Lizzy’s collaborations with producer Steven Mertens. Below is a helpful guide to the AKA demos, along with information on unused tracks recorded with both Mertens and David Kahne:
 
 
Lana’s promotion of her music during the AKA era included interviews, frequent live performances, and perhaps most distinctively, the creation of self-assembled music videos for most of the tracks on the album, much like the “Video Games” visuals that would propel her to stardom in 2011. Below are a selection of these videos, plus relevant fan creations: 
 
 
 
Lastly, here are some helpful links for further info and exploration of AKA:
 
 
 

I love the fact that in her everyday real life she wears similar things everyday. Jeans and a tee and her abuelita sandals. she's not into the whole fancy fashion label crap. I adore this woman.
 
Her hair is on point. The color is really nice. The golden tones is great on her skin. I hope she doesn't run to the salon and goes dark brown or black again. Leave it alone Lanita!
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I LOVE it when she puts her hair like that!
