Very interesting. The part where it plays her song reminded me of a Marilyn Monrque-Esque Lady in the Radiator from Eraserhrad.

Inb4 this song doesn't get released either

[Coney Island King 25,991]

hopefully we.....you know.....GET the song.

[annedauphine 35,812]

I absolutely adore this as much as I don't care about LIB. Which is like, a lot. I can't wait to never get it and feel your pain guys

[Trash Magic 28,278]

omfggggg. We keep eating.   this is 8 years in the making. Finally country folk Lizzy Grant returns.

Damn, another cover.

My follow-up covers-themed podcast is just getting longer and longer....

 

 

Highly ironic song for her to cover though.

This Daniel Johnston cover will be in the short film. I don't know how many of you know this but Daniel Johnston & Gabriel Sunday had this film project on Kickstarter in 2013. One of the people that helped back the project, with $7,500., was Lana Del Rey. The prizes she received for backing the project was Daniel Johnston's Smurf blue Ukelele, some of his art, and her name in the credits of this film as an associate producer. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gabesunday/hi-how-are-you-a-short-film-starring-daniel-johnst/description

Since that time, I have been waiting for this short film to be released because I also backed the project, and it has taken over a year of the expected release date to finally get it. I received a message from Gabriel Sunday in the summertime saying that the film was finished and only waiting on some of the music to be finished. I am so glad Lana was brought onto this project in a more personal way. Well worth waiting for. I have forever been joking about Lana covering Daniel Johnston's music, and I always said she should cover (Something's Last a Long Time, The Story of An Artist, and Space Ducks). So this really is beautiful to finally hear. I am so excited to finally see this on 11.11.15.

what is LIB? 

[SoftcoreBabyface 262]

Yeah, exactly! Thanks for the link Your Evilness. I really have been hoping Lana will use that Ukelele in a video or at least record a song utilizing it in some way.. 

[luminom 3,284]

what is LIB? 

Life Is Beautiful (idk if you're being ironic but...)

[longtimeman 8,907]

I remember reading that she'd pitched in money, but it's super exciting that she's going to have a song in the movie. It's a great choice of song as well. I especially can't wait for the hipsters to lose their shit over it again, like they did when Andrea Corr covered the same song (brilliantly, imo).

Nah I wasn't being acronym minded.. I draw blanks sometimes.. I actually forget about Life is Beautiful quite often.

or not..

 

The trailer is VOD'd on vimeo (on demand) so maybe that is why it's not linking/playing?
