Lana Del Rey Born to Die Billboard Chart Immortality

Recommended Posts

I am so pleased with this. I came on board the Lana train right after SNL and I am so proud that she has persevered . I have spent many days Googling "Lana Del Rey" and even challenged some people on line early on. Replying to the endless articles about her which analyzed her as though they were all writing master's thesis on this strange phenomenon known as Lana Del Rey. :facepalm: Do you remember those days. It was really quite unbelievable! Long, long articles trying to locate Lana's place and impact on society!!! Helppppppppppppp. It would drive me crazy.

 

I stopped putting in my 2 cents as it serves no purpose. 

 

She did it!! We love you Lana, we really do.    :aw:

Born to Die has 301​ weeks as of the brand new Jan 27, 2018 chart 

Born to Die at #139

Lust for life at #160


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
