"it's coming, you little bitch" :roflmao love her

I feel like all of her music has that one chord playing in the background lol

Ahaha lol-ing at her comment. Nice said bitch.

dead :thud

HAHAHAH I LOVE HER COMMENT!!


Because let's be real; she announced this shit millineums ago and we're still waiting.

Well you best make it come faster you little bitch.

exactly :laugh

I kind of hate what her fan base has become (excluding everyone at ahs).

She's released 25 songs in less than two years, and since that's not enough her demos have been leaked and ripped apart and for that we might not get music in the near future.

And they still whine and moan for moar.

Oh I never listen to her demos, am I the only one? In general I pretend demos aren't there, no matter who the artist is. There is only one that I came across accidentally and that is Black Beauty, an amazing song. I am also pissed off that because of so many leaks we probably won't be able to enjoy her new releases soon :(

I don't either. I had heard only a few but, I don't mean to sound sanctimonious about it, but I don't want to be complicit in the dissemination of her music. She was really, REALLY hurt when the potential Black Beauty era demos leaked. I mean, someone literally stole these from her hard drive. I just don't want anything to do with it.

I remember when she first started, it was pretty exciting getting leaks of old stuff that never made it/old versions/covers, but stuff that might be used? That's just disrespectful, and fans are really just shooting themselves in the foot with it. Yeah, you get a new Lana song, but you're not going to get the full package further down the line if they then scrap it.

I've always though her label had a hand in it though, she has so many, it's ridiculous.

SAME.

Anyway, Lana wins everything with that comment, lol! And that preview video is... well, there are no words. Undescribable perfection goes near it anyway. This thing can't come fast enough.

Same. Plus, Lana has like three-thousand songs and I'm just too damn lazy to listen to them lol. Although I do enjoy Ke$ha's demos :x

freaky xD

Trailer did nothing for me but kind of cool seeing her lyrics to Body Electric come to life.

it's really really hard for me to deal with the unfinished sound of the demos. So I dont really, even go there. I probably should, but. meh.

And yeah, also meh about the teaser. Just get here already lol

Ugh no.

Well... err, that was...

I don't like Miley anyway, and I don't like being negative about singers I'm just not going to like, but that was a pretty weak performance. She isn't cinematic enough for a Lana song.

Yuck.


And bitch just drop the damn movie, them teasers aren't even helping. I'm so done with Lana

A friend tried to have me listen to the cover, I couldn't bare more than 25 seconds in. I stopped it. Miley's cover was just horrid, I felt like it completely changed the mood and feel of the song and she sounded like a goat.

It wasn't that bad...

Her voice is just unbearable for me. I've hated it since I first saw her on Hannah Montana.

Urgh. That was pretty bad.

I love Miley's voice, and I loved her cover of Summertime Sadness too!
She was powerful and focused (and dressed!!!).

Can someone please send the link with it? For some reasons I cannot play those videos on forums.

:no

I really enjoyed Miley's cover~
Obviously it doesn't top Lana's original but it's still a pleasant listen for me :heart

Funny... its not that bad.

FINALLY ugh

I can't stand anyone who makes a cover of a Gaga or Lana song. They just can't pull it off as well as they should. Those songs need so much emotion from singers that it's impossible for others to sing them imo. :/ *waiting for the mob to come and kill me*

^
Actually, most people agree with you, only I and a very little bunch of others liked that Miley cover, lol.

And, YAY, finally we have a date for TROPICO! And it's in a few days!!

Stripper Del Rey

December 5th is too far away. I want that short movie now! 8D

TROPICO looks GLORIOUS.

It's creepy :/ Can't wait for it :D

Finally! Following its release, we need to have a Blu-ray of all her videos!

Can't believe it's been over a year since Paradise was released.

That's my birthday~ thanks Lana!

come on, today should be released :(

I've tried to watch it on a couple of sites but the video either hasn't been embedded properly or my internet signal is too crap to stream it.

Hopefully will show the short film on TV!

The short film was really bizarre but like idk I liked it. I liked the message after "Gods and Monsters" although I felt disconnected once she mentioned L.A. lol

I liked it... was expecting a bit more though. I guess months of waiting will do that do anyone.

yaaay

I hope she drinks milk on the cover and samples Beethoven.

I still think Shaun Ross was a strange choice for her leading man. He doesn't scream east Los Angeles gangster like the rest of the characters shown in "Gods & Monsters" portion.

I think the editing could have been better throughout, but I enjoyed the whole experience overall and I have loved the songs. 'Gods & Monsters' was probably my least favorite story of the three.

I really liked it, so much symbolism and creativity!
Glad to hear she's coming out with a new album though

Bel Air is so beautiful :)

I liked the first two videos, I might have an unpopular opinion but I wasn't really into "Bel Air."

Did any of you go to the premiere? I managed to get into the very last showing and it was PACKED.

And hooray for the new album being ULTRAVIOLENCE. I cannot wait. Love her so much.

I really liked TROPICO! I loved how she went for amazing and complex visual stuff, but the storyline was pretty understandable and straightfoward anyway. There are still symbols and things I don't get, but I can follow the story and it all seems less pretentious than it could have seemed.
Yay for the new album!! I love my lovely Lanabanana.

I haven't seen Tropico yet because I was busy with other stuff but I'm gonna do it tomorrow if the links are still working. :)

So French Montana sampled "Video Games" here. And I loveeeeee ittt! :heart

I can't stand French Montana nor Wiz Khalifa. But Snoop Dogg still got it woo! Sample is great, too.

this is a demo leaked that I like so much :)

^One of my personal favorites! :)

Paradise is a nominee for "Best Pop Vocal Album', Young and Beautiful is a nominee for 'Best Song Written For Visual Media' and Summertime Sadness (Cedric Gervais Remix) is also a nominee for 'Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical'.

Am I the only one who doesn't like that remix? :irked

I much prefer this one more

Lana Del Rey set to release ‘Once Upon a Dream’ cover for ‘Maleficent’:

http://www.hypable.com/2014/01/23/la...-upon-a-dream/

Yes......yes.......yes.....YES.

ULTRAVIOLENT LEAK
https://soundcloud.com/x_yy/ultraviolence-snippet

I'm crying omfg!! Yessss!!!

What in the actual fuck lol

wut :eyebrow :laugh:laugh

OMG I'm so excited! And it's releasing so soon, I can\t wait!

Still can't get over how they let that Car Jetson girl or w/e her name is completely fuck up Part of Your World from the Little Mermaid....and then let that Demi Potato girl sing an inferior version of Let It Go for Frozen. They are finally making things right with Lana....

super interested in the cover.

OMG, LANA + MY FAVOURITE DISNEY CLASSIC EVAH, YES!!!
I'm so happy!! I didn't think there could be something that made me forget about the unacceptable absence of Young & Beautiful at the Academy Awards, but no. There is.
I'm going to sing and dance Once Upon a Dream with a shawl while I wait for this to leak.

I would die if she recover that song to be like Young and Beautiful, that song is flawless. period!
And the haunting+moody song would be perfect for a movie like that. So exited!

Has it leaked? can't find it on yt

It's supposed to be released the night of the Grammy's. No leak yet at the moment.

Ultraviolence is finished!

Is that twitter or something?

^looks like text messages.

also lana's fb page posted this link where you can watch the grammys live stream.
I'm definitely seeing it.

edit:

the trailer for maleficent was amazing!

also idk if anyone knows but you can download the song in google play but you have to have a gmail account.
I used a chrome extension to download the song because supposedly you can only listen to it in your phone.
I used "FVD Video Downloader"

You can also listen to it here

It's so haunting! Beautiful.

Trailer

It worked perfectly for the trailer! I really love the trailer. I don't even care if the movie turns out to be terrible. I'm watching it simply for Angelina being a bad-ass in pretty costumes.

The song is so haunting and beautiful; and I'm still ecstatic to see this film. Ugh it needs to come out NOW!

What a good trailer. :D

The song works perfectlyyy.

yup, it is twitter! :) and since that is her real account, it's definitely a legit source! Can't wait arggh! Maybe it'll come out before summer?

I would like to see Maleficent and the cover works very well, imo.

Once Upon A Dream is everything I hoped it would be and so much more. :heart

The arrangement is everything. EVERYTHING.

Link for Once Upon a Dream: http://youtu.be/TZ44x0GnKh4

Lana is so perfect, I love this!

Oh, for those who doesn't know... you can download Once Upon a Dream for free on Google Play until February 3. Here's the link (I think) https://play.google.com/store/music/...dmrw2h6gxaip3e

Holy Molly! The arrangements is so drop dead gorgeous! Hopefully there's a video clip for this with the same haunting creepy theme like the movie.

Once Upon a Dream is gorgeous. I love a lot of the big pop ladies, but there's just something about Lana that makes her special to me right now.

I read that Angelina chose Lana for the cover. Lana is as perfect for the movie's combination of fairytale romance with eeriness as Angelina looks to be for Maleficent.

Angelina has good taste, haha. I agree, Lana was perfect for it. :luv2:luv2

Jolie has excellent taste. Lana can pull off such somber and dark songs with no issue. Love the way she reimagined the original song. Can't wait for the soundtrack to come out and I'm super excited for Ultraviolence! I read that she's shooting for a July release date.

I hope she does release it this summer, it'd be the perfect summer :heart

Same here.

Once Upon a Dream sounds beautifully and dreamy. I love it!
And, a new album, YEAH! ULTRAVIOLENCE is a wonderful title. I understand I can expect another lively, merry cd, lol.

Jolie cheek bone looks like can plug out someone eyes lol
I hope the hype for this movie doesn't turn out to be cheesy like that movie #glance at Stewart's Snow White

So excited for the whole Maleficent movie. She is one of my favorite Disney villains♥ And Once Upon A Dream is gorgeous as hell. Gives me shivers every time~

New album out on May 1st!

^
Ahhhhhh, yesssss!!!
I'M SO HAPPY!!!

I don't wanna get my hopes up, but this is still really exciting news! Ah she's so beautiful :heart

sounds amazing :thud

I don't want to get my hopes up too high, but May 1st? I hope so, that'd be awesome. I'm really kind of sad that her April concert dates that were released, she isn't coming to L.A. :(

...but that snippet in the video of her singing happy birthday... just gorgeous!

I try my best not to get my hopes too high but hell, I can't help but feel excited♥

I'm really really excited. Although, I fear that she'd change her mind about the release date.

I have been listening to Born to Die a lot. It's still as perfect!

new leaked song, not sure if it'll be on her album or not though

Hey guys ^^ sorry to both this is pretty unrelated I guess, but anyways

I taught a dance workshop I choreographed to Dark Paradise yesterday ^^ if u wanna watch here is the link!
