soooooooooo I love TNC and everything but does Sean Lennon always just do that impression of his dad when he sings?

There isn't any shocking moment, except for Cherry. Every album has at least one of these moments, e.g. West Coast

Why would you want to remove the sticker? It's a part of the release, and in the future won't be considered complete if it's missing.

I open my copies sis! I normally cut it off from the shrinkwrap and stick it in the case or put it back on the CD case!

Why is she dreaming about Marzipan tho ?

Probably taste good to her when shes on heroin lol

Investigators find drugs hidden in Mexican candy

- "A tip helped investigators find 14 kg of heroin, which was hidden in a Mexican candy called De La Rosa, a peanut marzipan."

 

Ingredients can be found online lol

Not 'NOW That's What I Call Music' blocking her from UK number 1

Oh my god we're finally out of that thread

I don't think compilation albums are counted on the official end of week charts so she should still get that #1!

Germany's biggest weekly journal also reviewed LFL – it's a pretty mixed review, more on the negative side:

http://www.spiegel.de/kultur/musik/lana-del-rey-neues-album-lust-for-life-lana-laechelt-jetzt-rezension-a-1158588.html

 

The journalist calls her a "one trick pony" (although she obviousvly like(d) Lana's earlier music) which is really stupid, so I can't take this article too serious.

[SlowGinFizzzz 15,354]

German music review website laut.de gave Lana her first five-star rating for Lust For Life (Born To Die and Honeymoon only got 3/5 and Ultraviolence got 4/5) and called it "nearly perfect".

[Thunder Revenant 20,936]

Can't really take God bless America serious - her vocals are great but that's it. It' not really a statement, just the ususal Lana lyrics and the production makes it sound a bit comical ... the gun shots sound like they are from a song for children and the guitar is so forest-fire-song-ish,

[salvatore 21,769]

idk the validity of this but regardless g-sleazy is OVER

I said that it seems to be Creep, not it is Creep.

 

Can you now understand?

I think she actually has a point, like when she says "the things Lana Del Rey does can only be done by her. Only she can make a dumb rhyme out of peaches and beaches and undress you while doing it".

 

We are all Lana fans to a certain degree and we love all the things she's notorious for, but I can understand it if people may critisize her for it, and I don't see any mindless "bashing" in this review. She actually defends her against those "bashers" in one of the paragraphs and while I may not agree with her on everything, I get what she's saying and why.

Aw I missed being on the first page of this thread. it's weird posting on this thread. I haven't been on here in hours, did I miss anything?

[Dominikx4 25,399]

So... LFL is released, which means Lana is going to end the era tonight. Can't wait to see you all in the LDR6 pre-release thread!

Yeah, definetely, you're right, and I always can understand people who don't like Lana since she and her music is a bit "special". But calling her a "one trick pony" is a bit stupid nevertheless if you look at all the (different) stuff she has done in her carreer. In the end it's all a matter of personal taste and every reviewer is just giving his or her personal opinion (although some reviewers act as if their opinion is "the right one"...).
