Lana Del Rey A.K.A. Lizzy Grant, introduced in her first Thread ～Born To Die～

[JackieRos]

vinyl for vinyl for collectors I guess

[isthisLOL?]

Vinyl because the sound quality is higher. Plain as that. Cinyl is going through a second peak lately with most music stores having a section of contemporary vinyl releases by now because many people have realized that CDs and especially digital downloads simply do not compare in quality.

Ugh. I found the Born to Die: The Paradise Edition at Best Buy. I wanted to get it because the Born to Die disc came with bonus tracks and Paradise came with a track that wasn't on the Target edition. I bought the Target edition on release day because it came with two exclusive remixes (which were awful btw). So now I'm hella debating about just buying the BtD:tPE CD; but I'd feel like it'd be a waste for me dropping 17 bucks on 4 songs. #firstworldproblems

I really hated paradise. born to die is amazing, I love all the songs.

Illegal download?

I don't like buying from iTunes because I like having the physical copy; and I don't download USA-release material lol. I'm just making this harder on myself xP

[emi♡]

Soundcloud? Grooveshark? Spotify?

idk if it's actually there in any of those places though.

[Kanzaki]

I don't know why she felt the need to include the paradise EP with Born to Die. Born to Die feels complete as it is. I can see how the songs fit the theme of the already released album, but I feel like she should've kept working on more songs, and then released a new album in perhaps a years time or so, or however long it would take.

That being said, seperately, the new songs are so nice. I loved American the most, then Ride, Yayo, Bel Air, Burning Desire, Blue Velvet, Cola, Body Electric and lastly Gods & Monsters, which was the only song I didn't really like.

Same here! Everybody is raving about how flawless it is, but I just cannot get into it; and I don't know why

[paper_doll]

The only song I skip on Paradise is Blue Velvet. I've never liked that song. Yayo isn't the greatest either.

Is this like a trend or something to re-release albums with a mini-album attached? I wonder what the purpose is, does it boost sales for the actual album?

[xLuna&1LOVE]

I still need to listen Paradise, because Born to Die is sooo good! The only song I don't like is Carmen.

How could you not like Carmen!? That song is great! The songs I just cannot get into from BtD are Blue Jeans, Diet Mountain Dew, Million Dollar Man, and Summertime Sadness.

[xLuna&1LOVE]

^ Well, I do like the songs you just wrote down there I don't like Carmen's refrain arrangement: it sounds so... I can't really explain, but it sounds like the song took 3 hours of my time.. it's like a some kind of trance, but this time: I'm not liking it.

[isthisLOL?]

But...but...but...CARMEN!

[koumori]

Carmen is my most listened to song I love it to pieces. I kind of fangirl the whole album though.

[JackieRos]

I hate lolita, that song is funny.

[Minttulatte]

How can somebody hate any songs on Born To Die? That album is just so flawless I'm happy this friend of mine recommended her music for me.

I was so shocked to see that Blue Velvet vinyl. I had no idea it was gonna be there but I really thought the package was worth of my damn money (paid 44,90€). Even that special Remix CD is awesome♥

[NintendoHTF1242]

I don't hate any songs; there are just some songs I cannot get into

But the title track and National Anthem are my anthems (pun intended) Holla!

[relmy]

National Anthem is easily my favourite Lana song, it's so good.

My least favourite on BtD is probably Million Dollar Man, never really got into that track. I'm neutral to Carmen, I don't choose to listen to it, but I enjoy it when it's there.

[George]

I don't dislike any particular song but I can't get into some songs either. I didn't care much for Carmen until recently. Lol
I was a bit disappointed with the new songs. They just seem so mediocre and quite boring really.
