I remember that Born to Die (the album) sounded so depressing and sad to me when I first was listening to it. Now, I listen to it, and a lot of it seems rather upbeat or at least mid tempo and not really depressing to me. Like I used to go to the album when I was feeling very down and low energy, and now when I’m down/low energy, if I try to listen to BTD, I’m like, “this shit is too upbeat.”
 

I think this is either a reflection on how overly positive and upbeat pop music of the early 2010s/late 2000s was that Born to Die sounded super sad and slow in comparison (hello cultural shock/cultural reset that Lana introduced), or the fact that I’ve just become majorly used to sad music to the point where it doesn’t feel sad to me, just comforting.

I feel the same way. I think that BTD is Lana's most upbeat and classically fun (in terms of pop) album, but I remember seeing articles constantly about how her music was so depressing. It really doesn't feel that way anymore and I guess depending on what someone regularly listened to in 2012, it might not have back then

I was thinking about it a few weeks ago. She, of course, sings about tough topics, but the sound makes it easy to listen. BTD is the album I think I listen to most on a daily basis because of its upbeat sound. The sadness feels so natural, it doesn't feel pushed. It just is. It doesn't make me feel numb

I saw this comment on the Blue Banisters music video. :rip: Why does she attract so many comments like this?

Well the speech pattern suggests not a very healthy individual. She attracts these types I think because she has always had an enigmatic quality to her so it fries up the brains of some I guess…

Seen this on Twitter. Apparently Lana requested to visit Pablo Escobar's former home while visiting Colombia.

 

 

Translated from the article:

 

Quote

Colombia, unfortunately, is an 'exotic' destination with a fame that goes beyond 'Enchantment'. And musicians, out of morbid curiosity or ignorance, make requests that can be considered somewhat 'politically incorrect'. Lana del Rey, on one of her visits, asked to see Pablo Escobar's former Hacienda Napoles.
