One of my fav youtubers reacted to this album recentlyĀ and i just thought i'd put it here. Its always a treat when someone gets to hear this absolute relic for the first time.Ā

I am in love with her. She's such a beautiful spirit and I am obsessed with how articulate she is with her reaction and interpretation of Lana's lyrics.Ā :wub:

Hey guys, I know this isnā€™t the UV merch thread but I canā€™t find it so I thought Iā€™d ask here!

Iā€™m trying to buyĀ the UV vinyl from EU and thereā€™s two variants on fnac (I canā€™t spot anyĀ differences but one costs more than the other). Whatā€™s the difference between these two?

no idea since they dont provide any kind of code, but my guess would be the one with the explicit tag is the US version, hence the higher price + delivery taking so long

and the other one being the regular EU version

One of the best places to buy Lana vinyls un Europe

Amazing! I was just worried because Iā€™ve read a review saying the UV vinyl skipped a bit (and I donā€™t own a vinyl player to play it and verify yet)Ā but I guess that can happen everywhere!Ā

fnac is legit, i always order the exclusives there

Ā 

but for normal vinyl like the regular UV id use jpc.de or my local record store

Ā 

jpc also ships ww and UV is cheaper thereĀ https://www.jpc.de/jpcng/poprock/detail/-/art/lana-del-rey-ultraviolence/hnum/5220507

Well Iā€™ve just ordered it and itā€™s not even the deluxe version ?

I will try to cancel my order, anyway theyā€™re offering sort of a coupon back? It is legit?Ā

Does anyone else have a love/hate relationship with Cruel World? I like the song, but I have to be in a specific mood for it, and I'm very, very rarely in that mood. Most of the time, it just feels so obnoxious and seems like it whines and drones on and on and on forever. Even 10-minutes-long Venice Bitch feels a lot shorter than this song to me.Ā Ā I'm very much a person who listens to an album from start to finish, so I usuallyĀ justĀ suffer through it every time I listen to Ultraviolence.Ā :horror2:Ā It's probably my least favorite opening track.

Ā 

Why is it called "Cruel World" anyway?


Ā Ā Itā€™s not about having someone to love me anymore

This is the experience of being an American whore

Lol I feel the same way, it seems like I really need to be in a specific mood to listen to the song to enjoy it. But overall, I think it's quite a good song :)

Ā 

I'm glad it's not just me! I agree, it is a good song. I find the verses to be pretty and enjoy the melodies, it's just once the chorus comes in and I'm like:

Ā 

FrightenedInsignificantCockatoo-size_res

Ā 

But I guess that dichotomy is what Lana was aiming for.

Hey guys, has anyone ever cancelled an order on fnac? I did yesterday but I still havenā€™t received my refund.

How long does it usually take? I canā€™t even find an email to contact them! Thank you.

It might be an allusion to Pink Floydā€™s ā€œGoodbye Cruel Worldā€.

I'm feeling so close to UV this year, in its upcoming 7th anniversary. I want to celebrate on all the dates of the singlesĀ  and music video releases (althoughĀ  I already missed West Coast).

Ā 

ShadesĀ of Cool - 26th May + first live performance of title track (?)

Ultraviolence-Ā 4th June

Brooklyn Baby -8th June

Album releaseĀ  - 13th JuneĀ 

SOC video - 17th June

UV video - 30th July

Ā 

I just loved the roll-out of this album so much. I think it was the perfect amount of time between WC and SOC, and then everything happened so fast, just when I needed it.Ā

having one of those days where this album is on repeat :flutter:Ā what a gem. it's a consistent and cohesive soundĀ but it's diverseĀ enough to stay interesting throughout. :flutter:Ā manifesting a similar vibe for Blue Banisters!!
