Greenwich 1,052 Posted February 22, 2014 I was thinking; under everybody's name where it displays "Location" and "Time Online" there should be another line called "Fan Since" and then maybe the user can pick the Month and Year they have been a fan since, (first started listening to lana/lizzy/may) -Or- Instead of a date, a certain single or album. (Paradise, Once Upon A Dream) But I think Month and year would just be easier. Idk I thought this was a cute idea, we can all see when we started listening, and have it shown for everyone to see, instead of maybe a whole thread about it or something.. [on a profile, it could also be next to Member Since.. "Member Since: --- Fan Since: ---" ] What do you think? 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YUNGATA 14,955 Posted February 22, 2014 nice idea in theory but tbh i feel like it has the potential to create elitism between some older and newer fans. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mileena 2,691 Posted February 22, 2014 It's a sweet idea, don't get me wrong, but I often see twonks online lying about how they knew her when she was doing her old NY bar shows (which is bs, let's face it). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
QueenofAlchemy 186 Posted February 22, 2014 people actually remember the date they became a fan? I became a fan because Nick Grimshaw on BBC Radio 1 was obsessed with Jessie Ware, and kept playing a song of hers that has a very similar intro to video games, so everyday I'd be like YAY video games....oh that song... until I bought BTD and the rest is history. I have no idea when that was 0 Quote High up in the Hollywood hills, Taking violet pills Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean it is possible, someone must have been at all of those shows between 2006 and 2010, I know of a guy who isn't a fan of hers but used to live in New York and go to those kinds of shows and met her briefly (he said she was either on drugs or seriously artsy ). But yeah most of them are probably lying. 1 Quote Caesar said he’d fall in love with me if I was older. I own all of Mexico and I got my own roller-coaster.

Of course some people would have legitely been there, but I highly doubt most of them are Lana fans. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lola 6,640 Posted February 22, 2014 am i the only person who liked her first time i heard her or No, I don't think I would've listened to her again if I didn't like her the first time I heard her. And I don't think Born to Die would have made me like her as much, I probably wouldn't have bothered to get into it. 1 Quote Caesar said he’d fall in love with me if I was older.

Greenwich 1,052 Posted February 22, 2014 Hehe, It was just a suggestion. I get the whole elitism thing, and the lying thing, but it was just a thought. But I feel like people are kind enough on here to be telling the truth, and not make a whole big deal out of it. (Unless some of you are trolls in disguise ! i hope not though) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rafael 3,513 Posted February 22, 2014 why not make the "favorite lana del rey song" available for everyone instead? **side-eyes mods** 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ilovetati 15,298 Posted February 22, 2014 I've always been a huge fan of indie music and used to find new songs on Youtube. I came across the Video Games mvid through the suggestions box on YouTube in January 2012 before Born to Die was released and became hooked instantly...found Born to Die, Blue Jeans, and the AKA Lizzy Grant songs soon after that and became a total fanboy. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZoeDelRey 160 Posted February 22, 2014 It's a sweet idea but I do agree with the people above that this could cause arguments between older and newer fans because people will think that people are lying and other circumstances. . 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, that would be present if it was in a thread, someone quoting someone else "no you didnt u liar" or something like that (fail troll example, i know) But if it was under our names i dont think people will go out of their way to comment, more of just a mental note "wow they've been a fan for that long..... yeah right" lol, you get the jist 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Atom Heart 1,929 Posted February 23, 2014 I've been a fan since January 14th, 2012. The date she performed on SNL. Literally right after she performed I rushed to find other music from her. Then I listened to MDM and DMD for 2 months until i stanned hard for her. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrailerParkDarling 5,691 Posted February 23, 2014 I was actually born in the same hospital on the same day as Lana We mingled in the NICU! I remember..even as a baby, she had a very melodic cry. So I guess you could say I've been a fan of her since day 1 !!! 16 Quote *** People call me crazy but I'm in demand *** Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
