still don’t understand why she scrapped it for Ultraviolence. would’ve been gold and she looks soooo pretty 🥰

I think her label thought it was too problematic since it's clearly about the Jim Jones cult. Freak doesn't mention "Jim" so they probably thought we wouldn't notice 

 

I always thought that it doesn't fit into the Honeymoon era because of the hair & makeup  although the new UV video is iconic too

half of the born to die demos are better

 

the songs themselves are some of her best work but they feel a little overproduced no offense to mr haynie

 

carmen particularly - the demo might be one of my favorite lana songs and the album version is one of my least favorite lana songs

I'm kind of in between on BTD because the final versions of a lot of the songs are absolutely incredible, but then there's a few others were I just personally prefer the demo. The only songs on the album where I think the demos are actually better than the final version are Lolita and Dark Paradise. However, the Carmen demo is so heartbreakingly gorgeous so I get preferring that over the final

You’re probably right, but the song is already about getting hit by your bf idk why they’d draw the line at a video of her taking LSD lmfao

 

but yes I always thought the video looked kind of out of place in honeymoon era, you can tell it’s older footage

I’m glad to see so much beautiful hate recently

 

an absolutely DIABOLICAL song. Truly horrifying to listen to. I don’t know if I have ever even finished it after I listened to the album the first time honestly. 

 

i don't agree but this description is making me HOWLLL

OMFG this reminds me of how in the album version of thunder, the drums bleed into her vocal mic feed at the beginning of the song where they removed the drums from the production… and it’s even worse because they’re off-beat at times to everything else. i cannot listen to that song at all because of it, it’s so awful and it genuinely infuriates me that they didn’t just either re-record it or use the original version

 

 I never noticed this.. it's giving "It was just that goood (Fame fame fame)"

Do you think Doja still hates Lana? 

After qftc the 2 other times she referenced Lana were so random. First while playing GTA she said "Lana Del Rey Lana does Del Rey" (then accidentally crashed her helicopter) and now she was dancing to TFJ but I don't know if she was mocking her or actually feeling it (I know she wasn't dancing seriously ofc)

Did she ever hate Lana? I thought the "gang sunk that dunker" comment meant something like "points were made".

The Diet Mtn demo Lana uploaded to Youtube herself is soo summery and chill I love it. I actually heard it and the demos for Lolita and TIMWUG before the album versions and was soo disappointed when I listened to BTD the first time oh nOOOO

Because I thought the demos were the album versions 

 

Same with Rahab, I thought it was the AKA version. It's superior in every way.

if born to die had:

- the diet mtn dew rural demo

- carmen piano demo

- tiwmug peter ibsen demo

- hey lolita hey

- lucky ones rick nowels demo

and didn’t have blue jeans

 

it would be a perfect album

Explain  Maybe I'm forgetting some event or I don't understand what she meant.

 

Edit: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Gang sunk that dunker ok, there are various definitions so no idea what she meant. Could very well also been negative.

wondering if lana is a chocolate, vanilla or fruity person

 

or if she doesn’t even like sweet things

According to the quote Elle posted today in the mystery illness thread, she likes chocolate.

”I’m on tour in America since the first days of April, it’s the first time I play so many shows and everything goes exceptionally well. These past two years I don’t feel very well physically, I suffer from gastric ulcer, but I can make it through concerts who’s capacity can be over 9,000 people. I smoke, I drink a lot of coffee. I eat chocolate and pizza. My way of living when I’m not on tour isn’t that right."
