    BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL.
    The monologue reminded me so much of a visual form of "Carmen" - it was so goddamn beautiful I broke out in tears while cleaning my dog's poop. This music video is a masterpiece IMO. National Anthem can't hold a candle to this in my opinion, Lana was so raw and so stunning in this video - I felt like I was watching a real film, a cinematic adventure - this music video deserves all the praise it can get. I saw flashes of Lolita when Lana was getting her hair brushed, and in the white dress at the motel, it just seemed like she had so many Humbert Humberts in her life.
     
    God bless Lana Del Rey

    I felt sad because of the way she's forced to think, especially in light of her fame...I think the monologue basically said she finally felt happiness and freedom after watching all her dreams and expectations of fame turn into something else entirely. A good perspective, but sad that's she's driven to that.
     
    I'm glad there wasn't any death. Years from now, when she better still be making music, I want to look back at the deaths in the Born to Die videos and feel fond of the theme--because that was the album, Born to DIE. I don't want it to become a schtick, which it would if she kept doing it. But for the whole era in a grand scheme, it was pretty cool.

    She's really projecting herself in this video tho- like.... it's so autobiographical and organic, don't you think? But it's a carefully constructed type of organic- the kind that says "i'm telling a story- this is important" but at the same time, feels natural

    They betrayed her. Hollywood accepts her with open arms.

    Or is she among us? Beware, Lana stans! Look at what happened to lanadelrey.fm and CG, then Ahmed, that's what the future holds for us all: The curse of Lana's past :creepy:

    Okay, here's my unpopular opinion.
     
    "Carmen" is the best song on Born to Die. If it wasn't for that song I probably wouldn't love Lana as much as I do right now. When I first heard that song, it gave me chills and the image of Felix Cane slowly dropping down the pole as Lana says, "Darlin' Darlin' Doesn't have a problem" is permanently embedded into my mind. "Carmen" is genius lyrically, proudction wise,and the music video is flawless. It's a brilliant song. I've read tons of comments on Tumblr, Twitter, and YouTube and other websites that just really hate "Carmen" and wish it was kicked off of Born to Die, I could never picture that. "Carmen" just brings me into a David Lynch film, Laura Palmer's secret life, and even the production screams David Lynch for Twin Peaks and Blue Velvet. It's the one song from Lana that honestly blows me away every time I listen to it. I've replayed it nearly 800 times on my iTunes since I first heard it in May and just can't get enough. It's the one song off Born to Die I relate to, not because I'm a druggie or wild child, but it really experiments with the idea that everybody looks fine on the outside but really is crumbling apart early on in their lives.
     
    It's just my view, "Carmen" will always be the song that saved Born to Die for me. Born to Die and Video Games took me over a month to get into.

    Well, kids have probably seen it 1000x on the street anyway by complete strangers. It's down to parents to set examples to their kids - not Lana Del Rey (or any other celebrity). If David Bowie can smoke on stage, Lana Del Rey can too.
