"Some Things Last a Long Time" by Lana Del Rey for "Hi How Are You Daniel Johnston?"

[Intriguing Penguin 867]

Was just watching a Marina & The Diamonds interview and she says she loves Daniel Johnston at about 6:18 into the video:

 

 

Just thought I'd share with any of you who might be interested 

Who?

It's Barrie

How do you know this? Is it official?

 

Edit: I asked Barrie he said he plays guitar and he is also the producer of the song.

Daniel Johnston died today at the age of 58. RIP

End of an era

A nice (if characteristically pretentious) meditation on Daniel Johnston and Lana from The Quietus:

Please make a stripped-back indie rock album, Lana.

This makes me thirsty for a fully acoustic LP

Btw, why the hell we barely talk about this song anymore??? It's amazing, one of her best and most emotional covers ever

Been thinking about this song continually for weeks now. Quite a beautiful surprise to see this thread popping up.

This is not a song I can just listen to. It hits me too hard. But I think it may be time for listen.

If this is not included on the covers record in some way I don't want it

I love how almost thin/brittle and grainy her vocals and the guitar sound in this. It really captures the nostalgia of the song.

In other words, they understood the assignment

I didn’t see this posted, but Daniel Johnston’s official account posted an unseen of him and Lana in November 2015. Taken at the premiere of his film that she helped produce 💔

I can't believe no one told me about this. I just stumbled upon this doc and when the song started I thought "hm. this girl sounds a lot like lana. nah. it's not her though"

It reaches just so deep. As you said, not a song that can be just listened to.

 

I wrote a poem based on it some time ago. It's in spanish, but gonna leave it here anyway:

Oh wow, great job. I had to translate to English so I’m sure I couldn’t get it as good as someone that spoke Spanish but that was very pretty! Thank you for sharing 🤗

This cover really doesn't get enough attention

I never see anyone bring it up, ever. Did everyone forget about it?

I listen to it a LOT. I was a DJ fan before I was a Lana  fan so it was so special to me  but the original is always best, so heartbreaking. Lana did such a fucking good job on that cover though, it’s my favorite cover of hers, ever.
