Chocolate Eyes 548 Posted February 15, 2013 A picture I frequently saw of Lana was one from the Ride video where she's laughing with her head up and wearing the NA warbonnet. This was before I listened to her so I didn't know it was her at the time. I assumed it was probably another random lame wannabe hipster chick on tumblr playing dress up. When I found out it was Lana Del Rey, I listened/watched Ride out of curiosity not expecting it to be much more than a boring hipster favorite pop act. (I was completely wrong, listened to the rest of BTR/Paradise, went further to search for unreleased/older songs, and became a big fan in a short amount of time instead). I have such an interest and curiosity in 1940s,50s,early 60s music, fashion, and entertainment. I'm drawn to Lana's lyrics and sound because of that, how she puts influences from stuff like that in her music. I think her vocals on Born To Die (the song) and Money Hunny sound like a female version of Johnny Cash. In my opinion, that's awesome! I wish my singing voice sounded like hers. 4 Quote 🌧️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quadrophenia 81 Posted February 17, 2013 I fell In love and bought her born to die single when it was free on iTunes and just by the sound of it I thought she was much older than she actually was. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrailerParkDarling 5,693 Posted February 17, 2013 I can be a harsh critic on Lana sometimes but someone in real life was talking shit (this happened tonight when I played noir for them- probably a bad pick in hindsight) and I swear I became like a mama cat *Claws up* hiiissss lol 3 Quote *** People call me crazy but I'm in demand *** Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sonicalana 254 Posted February 18, 2013 okay... I love all of Lana's other songs but I honestly just hate Lucky Ones. I can't even listen to it the whole way through, it's that bad. And I also think Summertime Sadness is overrated, it never spoke to me that much... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Viva 3,169 Posted February 18, 2013 I bought the Born to die delux edition. Got a bunch of CD's and burned copies to all my friends and basically everyone I know got one. I mixed my favourites songs from BTD with some leaks. I post several of her videos/songs on my FB page quite often. Even when I got out to clubs I used to give DJ's some cd's with her tunes. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris Cuomo 3,320 Posted February 20, 2013 okay... I love all of Lana's other songs but I honestly just love lucky ones the most . I always skip to that track... it's that perfect.

VegasBaby 895 Posted February 20, 2013 I'll go first, -I actually used to really hate her nails, but now I can't get enough of it, love her claws. -The first time I listened to Blue Jeans, when she says "we don't need no money, we could make it all work, but he.." i thought she actually said "we could make it all work buddy" and i was like "lol sure buddy" it was quite an embarrassing moment. I thought this too! Haha, I was like... Lana's voice, dialect & accent turns me the hell on. 0 Quote Sweeping scents and blue hydrangea. Summer hail and summer stranger.

PinUpGaloreLana 1,399 Posted March 15, 2013 Its not really about lana, so to say but: When ever playing dangerous comes on I imagine me and my teacher making out really violently up against a wall, and then i change the "Do you have a girl? I dont see a ring on your finger." To "Do you have a boy? I dont see a ring on your finger." I make up an entire music video in my head...I usually replay the song, so i can replay the "video". its so hawt.<3 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
