Oh... That's it? I thought you meant a better version of the acapella with the official instrumental but thanks anyways

An amazing song.. I love the Born to Die version and the Little Carmen acapella concept demo version too.

Why do people refer to this as 'little carmen'? where did that name even come from

The laptop demo was called Little Carmen, we’ve known that since it leaked. It was spread around under that name and leaked that way

It’s from the book ‘Lolita’ where at some point they play a song called ‘Little Carmen’

I thought I had heard all the radio live recordings of her songs, but I was wrong. Here is a new discovery of Carmen. She sang it live on NPR in 2012.

Not me only now fully realizing and understanding the lyric of "Lying to herself because her liquor's top shelf" 10 years later.

I was 14 when this album came out so I just thought she kept her liquor in the top shelf of her cabinet because I didn't know what top shelf liquor was. For some reason, I always pictured her having to like getting on the kitchen counter to reach her liquor. And I've never really reevaluated my thought process until now.

To be fair, I'm someone who pays more attention to the music than the lyrics soooo

up until this very moment that’s what i thought as well  it made sense to me because i guess if the liquor’s on the top shelf it’s harder to reach/see? idk lol

it can also be symbolically read as meaning her drinking is her top priority/ highest valued thing in her life
