Lana Del Ray AKA Lizzy Grant - Post-Release Discussion Thread + Poll

[Actor 2,012]

I love this album so much 

[Eugene 26,685]

If Lana re-release AKA... I wonder if she would change the title.

 

I think Lizzy Grant or Kill Kill would be good titles for the album.

I think either Lana Del Rey, Kill Kill or Nevada.

 

But knowing Lana it could literally be anything!

where are all my lizzy grant stans at?  currently streaming pin up galore! 

[Eugene 26,685]

my dream would be the release of a special edition with outtakes produced by David Kahne.

If she ever releases AKA again it will probably be thru the unreleased songs album

She should just release the whole thing at this point. Everyone has these songs anyway, she’s just losing money at this point. Come on girl, learn from your pal Taylor.

I think you're right.

Is it registered somewhere?

yes, all aka songs were registered some time ago, but I don't know if that was when aka was released or later. some songs were also re-registered some years later

also found something strange on youtube.

the smarty video is the only video uploaded to an account called 'Familyheirlooms', the same name like Lana's family tiktok. They say 'fan account' but the video has also the auto-generated description "A recently deleted video from Lana Del Rey’s official Youtube channel called ‘Smarty’" ... "© 2023 Lana del rey" ... "Released on: 2023-04-22"

there was an auto-generated audio for smarty that appeared on lana's official youtube account, but most believe that it was just a fan uploading the song and it somehow ended up on lana's account and it wasn't anything official

Anthony Fantano having AKA in his top 5 is so surprising.

[Ptolemaeic Spider 1]

This is gonna sound crazy, but if Lana kept her Lizzy Grant personality, her discography would be way different

APPRECIATION POST FOR AKA

 

I adore this album so much, it's still one of her bests. And the album was way ahead of its time. So unique and mesmerizing.

 

Every melody has a personality its own, the way how she and David Kahne played with the production is so fascinating. It's so playful. And the visuals, the homemade music videos, so gorgeous. The lyrics are so beautiful, one of her bests too. The whole album is so 'cinematically delicious'. 

 

Every song from AKA is my favorite, but songs that are closer to my heart are Kill Kill (my first fave!), Brite Lites, Yayo, Raise Me Up, Mermaid Motel and Oh Say Can You See.

My son can he homoseuxal, my daughter can be lebanese, but I would NEVER accept a child who doesn't believe Lana Del Ray (2010) is Lana Del Rey's best album and magnum opus. 

[Eugene 26,685]

omg? I never noticed that there is a transition between Put Me in a Movie and Smarty.
