Lana is our modern day Edith Piaf. Totally unique. a mixture of Brian WIlson Roy Orbison, Leonard Cohen, Gram Parsons, Elton & Bernie. Born to Die/Paradise is comparable to Elton's Captain Fantastic. All the records need to be listened whole. Waiting for a box set vinyl of all 400 songs not on any lp

notes about the Oct. 13, 2018 chart where Born to Die holds at 314 weeks (unfortunately)

 

Born to Die is #18 on the Alternative Album Top 25 chart in its 211th week

Born to Die is #45 on the Rock Album Top 50 Chart in its 219th week

Duet with Cat Power is #23 in its 6th week on the TripleA chart

 

and what would be really cool (but TPTB probably won't allow it) would be the following-

 

The misogynist rock hall of fame (which should really be retitled the Music Hall of Fame) announced the 15 nominees for the class of 2019 (to be announced in Dec. and given in March 29, 2019 at the Barklays Center in NYC) Only 3 women were on the ballot out of 15. 

One of the three is Stevie Nicks, solo. (Fleetwood Mac is already in the Hall). (the other 2 are Janet Jackson and Chaka Khan as the leader of Rufus)

 

It would be nice if Stevie Nicks would request that Lana Del Rey be one of the people who inducts her into the Hall (should Stevie be one of the inductees when they announce it). 

 

Wouldn't that really be cool? (and that only requires a speech, doesn't require a song).

 ya hear that Stevie?

Oct. 20, 2018 chart

 

with Born to Die not being on the 200 this week, Lana falls out of the Top 20 (and with there being five albums that in the next four to six months 

that might hit 300 weeks (all male based), odds are the Top 20 is now out of reach, as there are not that many albums above not on the chart.

(She would need a remastered Born to Run with Holiday song so that it remains on the chart all year, the last couple of years Born has dropped off during the Christmas seasonal records and special box sets hitting the chart. That is the only way to consistently pick up weeks.

(Keep in mind Lana had passed the Beatles & AC/DC & Eminem but all 3 recharted and have remained constant on the chart, and there are those albums released after Lana's that now are nearing or above).

 

that said-

Still don't quite understand how it is not on the 200, being that

Born to Die is bulleting at #19 on the Alternative album 25 chart after 212 wks on that chart

Born to Die is bulleting at #48 on the Rock 50 album chart after 220 wks on that chart

 

and amazing is that on the Social 50 chart, Lana is #12, which is the highest she ever was on this chart, being on this chart for 132 wks.
