That’s kind of you :poordat:

 @lmdr and I recently talked about how we remember the music video for Summertime Sadness and National Anthem coming so close back to back 😲

 

It brings chill to my spine remembering this time... I remember being so excited about Summertime Sadness video specifically because it used to be my favorite song from the album :flutter:

Ah... Born to Die era was an experience that I wish we could all live through again.

The first time I discovered Lana was on Tumblr when I was 14 in 2012.

 

I was scrolling through my dashboard and saw someone reblogged the national anthem music video. The moment I clicked on that video my life really would never be the same.

 

I remember Ice skating on my friends lake to dark paradise and drinking underage listening to TIWMUG. 
 

this album literally rewired my brain and I’m so grateful for this album (and the rest of her discography) defining my youth. 
 

10 years feels so weird :crai:

I asked Asmodeus (the demon of lust) to make Miley Cyrus suffer. I am not happy with these new developments. After Miley rips off Lana's aesthetic, she bullies Lana into changing her release date. It is infuriating.

This album was such an experience oh wow. I remember I started listening to Lana during the summer of 2012. Video Games was the first song I listened to, then the songs that were available on YouTube; Born To Die, Blue Jeans, Carmen, etc. I was OBSESSED with Video Games from the first listen, I actually bought the single on iTunes. Then Ride, Blue Velvet & American came out and I digged those songs too, especially Ride. 
 

It wouldn't be until November that I would buy the double album. The first full listen was an otherworldly experience. I would listen to both the album and EP non-stop for the next year, then Ultraviolence came out and it really cemented Lana as my fave.
 

It's crazy how time flies. 10 years. :xcry:

Born To Die might not still be my favourite Lana record, but it's the one that started it all, both for her and for me, and it will forever be a masterpiece.


this take is really true. She did not just changed the pop music scene. She upgraded my music taste when i needed her the most:fabcat:

Actually kind of sad that she didn’t post about it. I guess we will have to wait for the 20th anniversary. 

 

Real sad. Watch us get nothing until like the 59th anniversary.....:bebe:

Yeah I don’t get it. BTD is one of the most successful vinyl records of the last 10 years. Why wouldn’t they want to do some sort of reissue at least?
