Minor General Questions that Don't Deserve Their Own Thread

Does anyone have the original version of I don't wanna go?

"Swan Song. It’s on my album Honeymoon. It’s the antithesis of hopefulness. It’s about trying to find beauty in giving up. If I had my way, I would continue to persist in all areas of my life, but it can be quite challenging because I can be too trusting too soon."

Visit Fordham University's Rose Hill Campus where she attended college. Listening to "Fordham Road", wander through the Bronx (careful, it's a "bad neighborhood"!) on your way there and see if you can find the cheap coffee place on Valentine or the "stone Mary in the garden". On campus, stop in to the McGinley Center there and check out the ballroom where she sang at a fundraiser. Cross campus to Rodrigue's Coffee House in Alumni House where Lana played several gigs (including her first known gig and another one the same night as the fundraiser). Get caffeinated imagining Lizzy singing "Get Drunk" and "Pawn Shop Blues" here while playing acoustic guitar.

 

Visit more venues where she performed in her early years. They're all listed in the Early Shows section. (Keep in mind that some venues have closed or moved since then. I've tried to list the original addresses in the show threads when possible, but I'm not sure it's 100% accurate.) Explore her Williamsburg stomping grounds at night listening to "Oh Say Can You See". Wander through alleys and look at the bars.

 

Visit the trailer park where she lived, Manhattan Mobile Home Park at 4828 Tonelle Ave. in North Bergen, New Jersey if it hasn't been demolished yet. (It doesn't appear to have been based on Google StreetView photos from December.) Take the Lincoln Tunnel which inspired the "tunnel lined with yellow lights" lyric in "Yayo" as you take yourself "from this dark trailer park life."

 

Definitely visit Coney Island. Walk down Mermaid and Neptune Avenues. Eat cotton candy and explore the boardwalk while listening to "Mermaid Motel". Ride the coasters and the Wonder Wheel. Stick your toes in the sand while listening to "Kill Kill". Lie in the ocean singing her song. Check out the aquarium before you go. Come back for the annual Mermaid Parade.

 

You might also consider traveling down the Jersey Shore to a couple similar boardwalk destinations, Seaside Heights, where I think she wrote "Trash Magic", and Wildwood, where one of her classic photo shoots was taken.

 

And if you're really hardcore, consider a road trip to beautiful Lake Placid, where she grew up.

 

If you do any of this please take pictures and post about it!

I just went to Williamsburg a few days ago and ugh what a cool place. I didn't even really consider the connection to Lana at the time. Do we know if she lived there at one point? Or just passed through a lot?

I also passed by The Bitter End without realising I was in the bar right next to it. They have a list of past performers in their window... Lana Del Rey nowhere to be found! The disrespect.

Do we know anything about Studio 356? 

 

The January/February 2007 sessions that produced versions of Disco/OSCYS/Let My Hair Down/FKP2/Get Drunk/RMU were allegedly recorded there with members of the Phenomena, but I've never heard any whisperings of where this was -- and a cursory Google search reveals nothing.

If you're talking about full concerts, my favourite by far is her 2013 Olympia, Paris performance from her Paradise Tour. Stand out performances of Body Electric, Born to Die, and Million Dollar Man.. in fact, it's my favourite rendition of MDM she's ever done.

Olympia 2013 is heavenly. She also killed Burning Desire that night too - totally transformed the song for me. 

 

My favourite ever performance of her's is this of Terrance Loves You. Her vocals are divine - potentially never better. 

 

Just lmao about the zombie crowd trying to sing along. "YouuuuareeeeeeezzzzZZZzzZZZzzzZZZ"

 I'm biased, but I love this one of National Anthem at SBSR 2012, it just seems so fun and light!

Is “The Man I Love” real or is the “Trash Magic” demo real? I’ve never gotten a definitive answer on this.

If ur talking about the one with the Man I love and trash magic spliced together, yes it’s fanmade

This is what I know, else can probably answer better though<3
