Brooklyn Baby

[Rebel 3,177]

I think it's rad and not rare

[FFXSoul91 1,035]

It's definitely rad.

The booklet says "rare" but it also says " 'cause I was filled with passion" in Ultraviolence so idk what to trust. 

[evilentity 13,351]

Anyone else think it's "rad" and not "rare"?

I think it's rad and not rare

It's definitely rad.

When I listen to the line in isolation, I can't tell for sure whether it's "rad" or "rare", but I think I hear "rare", which is also slightly more likely because it rhymes with "hair" two lines before.

What booklet?

[rdp 1,241]

And if you don't like it

You can beat it, beat it, baby

 

You never liked the way I said it

If you don't get it, then forget it

'Cuz I don't have to fucking explain it

Lana lyrics or a reply in a LanaBoards flame war?

I've always thought the male background vocals at the end were by Barrie, but the booklet begs to differ...

I thought it was rare but she changed it to 'rad' in the final chorus..

Yeah, I noticed that too. Though it seems like the background vocals were intended to sound like Barrie.

Why couldn't Barrie just sing them...

[Adrift 4,814]

Why couldn't Barrie just sing them...

They live in separate worlds, remember?

[floridakilo 6]

Surely the background vocals are the part she wanted Lou Reed to sing?

[Anthem 1,559]

Well I can't help but notice when she starts doing the lala/dedah/whatever after the second chorus she clearly says "gaga". Makes me wonder if she is poking fun at Gaga or if its just noise. I don't know anything about their supposed connection so I can't say one way or another but maybe someone who does/cares would.

I'm not sure if this is entirely accurate, but I read somewhere that Gaga stole her style and then started calling out Lana for copying her.

I just looked up the name in the booklet (from what I could see) and that person doesn't exist. Ii'm for sure that it's sung by Barrie, because I listen to his music a lot, and it sounds like his voice. He probably credited himself under a fake name. You know like that whole Taylor Swift mess? Maybe they knew they were falling apart, and he didn't want to be credited as the the backing vocals. #THEORY
