Totally agree
YESS
Not between Lana fans.
Lana honestly makes me want to experience so many things in life
trust me you don’t want to experience this
From someone who is living this Carmen life it's hell, I'm constantly desired no protection I can't even be myself without people constantly looking at me I don't even dress up. I was a sugar baby for a second for 2 men I met didn't have sex with them but it's just gross to think about in retrospect. You whittle away
EXATAMENTE
Yes! Life is beautiful!!! Experience as much as you can! Just stay away from drugs and booze, it will eat your soul. Work hard and enjoy life! Make smart decisions. GOD bless!!!
she she puts a rose color glasses behind some horrific experiences. i don't mean as a criticism, i mean as excellent storytelling.
The fact that she edited this video herself, legend
In an In-N-Out burger restaurant though!

This makes me shiver. Reminds me of last year when I was homeless all alone by myself working as a prostitute to afford my heroin/crack addiction. It was absolutely horrible. I'm in rehab right now. But this song- sigh, it gives me so many flashbacks.
I hope you recover fully and safely

awh , i hope ur better now. i’m also going through a heroin addiction but i rlly hope u get better
I was doing the same things you were doing for 4 years till I finally got clean hope your doing good

This song is painfully beautiful, heartbreaking, and tragic, but it’s one of my favorites. I performed this at an open mic type thing at my school and the audience was silent for a few moments when I finished it before they began clapping. The lyrics really have that effect on people, like they were in a trance.
🤧🤧🤧
wow I wanna see it!!
Girl 😭
Lana Del Rey storytelling is ethereal.
Thats an amazing song choice for an open mic. You should post the video if you have it. I love listening to all the different voices on the internet now besides only hearing from top selling artists in the past. Either way Lana is an amazing songwriter and storyteller
Imagine music industry without Lana del Rey.
You can't...

Meee

Yea i am

❄️❄️❄️🥺🥺
Her voice is so candy sweet and so full of pain. It hurts and feels good to listen to her music. It’s a cathartic release into the unknown.
Sad and evil too because remember she did make a deal with her dead god she worships.
@@BoB0Bo0 Lana uses witchcraft and Baphomet to destroy Carmen, that’s why in the song Carmen is considered a hypocrite. Listen to this, “the boys the girls they all like Baphomet, Carmen gives them butterflies bats her cartoon eyes, I aka Lana laugh like satan( for completing the curse which is to haunt Carmen by overdosing). Carmen’s mind is like a diamond, audio tune lies, Carmen’s still shining like white lightning”. The interlude which is translated to French, Lana talks about her love for satan for destroying as in for the song music to watch boys, “no holds bared I’ve been sent to destroy”.
@@BoB0Bo0 you don’t have to agree with me but these are the facts about Lana. I mean if someone writes about killing themselves like what Lana does, those people are considered evil cowards.
If Ed and Lauren were still alive, they would’ve told people to stay away from Lana music. I can almost guarantee that.
@@BoB0Bo0 my pleasure
after years, this is the only description that PERFECTLY explains how i feel listening to lana

Lyrics :
Darlin’, darlin’
Doesn’t have a problem
Lyin’ to herself
Cause her liquor’s top shelf
It’s alarming honestly
How charming she can be
Fooling everyone
Telling them she’s having fun
She says, “You don’t want to be like me, don’t want to see all the things I’ve seen”
I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’
She says, “You don’t want to get this way, famous and dumb at an early age”
Lyin’, I’m lyin’
The boys, the girls
They all like Carmen
She gives them butterflies
Bats her cartoon eyes
She laughs like God
Her mind’s like a diamond
Audiotune lies
She’s still shinin’
Like lightning
White lightning
Carmen, Carmen
Staying up till morning
Only 17, but she walks the streets so mean
It’s alarming truly
How disarming you can be
Eatin’ soft ice cream
Coney Island queen
She says, “ You don’t want to be like me, lookin’ for fun, gettin’ high for free”
I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’
She says, “You don’t want to get this way, street walk at night and a star by day”
It’s tirin’, tirin’
The boys, the girls
They all like Carmen
She gives them butterflies
Bats her cartoon eyes
She laughs like God
Her mind’s like a diamond
Audiotune lies
She’s still shinin’
Like lightning
White lightning
Baby’s all dressed up with nowhere to go
That’s the little story of the girl you know
Relying on the kindness of strangers
Tying cherry knots
Smiling, doing party favours
Put your red dress on, put your lipstick on
Sing your song, song, now the camera’s on
And you’re alive again
Mon amour, je sais que tu m’aimes aussi
(My love, I know you love me too)
Tu as besoin de moi
(You need me)
Tu as besoin de moi dans ta vie
(You need me on your life)
Tu ne peux pas vivre sans moi
(You can’t life without me)
Et je mourrais sans toi
(And I would die without you)
Je tuerais pour toi
(I would kill for you)
The boys, the girls
They all like Carmen
She gives them butterflies
Bats her cartoon eyes
She laughs like God
Her mind’s like a diamond
Audiotune lies
She’s still shinin’
Like lightning
White lightning x2
Darlin’, darlin’
Doesn’t have a problem
Lyin’ to herself
Cause her liquor’s top shelf
thank you and what they were saying when lana n the guy had a lil conversation? i cant really understand

This video gets a lot sadder when you realise that Lana edited this. Because when the line "lying to her self because her liquors top shelf" comes on, she plays a clip of just her singing on the stage trying to look happy.
Oh my, I didn’t even realize she edited this. She must have gone through a lot. I wish the best for her. I would love to be her friend. Damn.

I’m lying in bed silently crying over this song because I really do relate to it. My whole life I’ve tried to be a happy person even if I’m in pain. So what most people see of me is this happy and nice person. And I’ve always just been a generally happy and nice person but I definitely have put many fake but convincing smiles on in my life. I love dressing up and making and giving gifts for people and making other people happy. I know that most of the people in my life probably wouldn’t believe how much I’ve faked it and hidden my heartbreak in my life. Another thing that I relate to is lying to myself. Telling myself that I’m fine and happy even when I’m not.
I hope things get better! We are here for you
okay?

i played this song for my goat when she was in labor to calm her down
OMG LOL
what is wrong? and how is this funny like I don't know?
I know it's kind relaxing to hear but i don't think that the goat calm down just for hearing this -_-
she actually was pretty calm she is an expert i guess but i didn't want to play any thing else that wouldve stressed her out so i just play this lol
I've never related to a person more than you in my entire life.
everyone's all into Chemtrails and here I'm still stuck on Carmen..
Yep
I'm into both such art Lana makes❤❤
same
Don’t worry carmen never gets boring
lol true
This song was the backdrop of my life between 15-22. Partying, heroin addiction, coke addiction, sugaring and SW and everything that comes along with that lifestyle…. Four and a half years clean now, but every once in a while I come back to this to let myself drift away to the past…
so proud of you fir being clean!!
her songs literally take me to another world
I’m in love with the laugh and her response after she says “So talk to me about why I’m your dream girl.” And the guy replies, “That’s going to be a short conversation.” She knows that she’s every man’s dream girl. But no one will ever deserve her.
she is the definition of "you think that you're in love, but you're really just in pain"

U know what is beautiful, that not matter what this song means in Lana's eyes, everyone see something different and important for themself in the lyrics. ❤️
she and her music is the art
For anybody who is interested in a bit of context from a literature student, I'll explain how Carmen is what 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame', 'Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego', Jessica Rabbit, and 'The Matrix' all have in common.
'Carmen', originally an 1845 novel, features a beautiful black-haired gypsy woman in a red dress - an outcast isolated from her own culture of outcasts, and a symbol of exoticness, eroticism, mysticism, mystery and, above all, freedom (both involuntary, and self-fulfilled). Freedom from social constraints (for her situation as an outcast), and freedom from romantic commitment. She is effectively voiceless to the reader, her dialogue communicated only through the male narrators, never through her directly, and her loveliness drives the male characters around her to action, then to conflict - eventually leading to her own death at the hands of a man who realises he can't have her. But the idea and ideal of Carmen persists - and, as a symbol and an archetype rather than a character, she even escapes her own death in transcending the novel itself.
Now, Carmen - the archetype of a (usually) voiceless, exotic, isolated/outcast female figure of mystery, attractiveness and often mysticism, that seldom takes action or speaks for herself, at least as far as the story or narrative goes, but drives others to take action or speak for her - is a recognised literary trope that recurs again and again in art and entertainment, in every medium, right up until the present day. She is kept alive only by the artist, and has no persistent identity but that which the artist imposes on her.
In 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit?', Jessica Rabbit herself even says "I'm not bad- I'm just drawn this way". 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame' has a more proactive and freedom-positive incarnation of Carmen in Esmeralda (who actually herself must help another outcast break free of his bonds), whose attractiveness drives Frollo to burn down all of Paris if he can't have her, and the line 'the sun caught in her raven hair' fro Frollo's iconic song comes almost directly from the 1845 novel's description of Carmen. The connection to the red-clad Carmen Sandiego is obvious (indeed, she's seemingly impossible to catch, and the player must chase her all over the world), and The Woman in the Red Dress from 'The Matrix' is another great example- she 'doesn't talk much', and literally exists only to distract Neo and herald the introduction of conflict in the training simulation.
Considering this song was released in an album with Lolita - another song named after a voiceless female literary character who unintentionally drives a man to desperate actions for love - I'm inclined to think Lana Del Rey knows her classic literature quite well.
I named my daughter carmen so this is interesting to read. thx.
Wasn't Carmen also an opera? Tchaikovsky said when he saw it, "This will be a big thing in the future." And it was and is. Most of the songs in that opera, you've heard before and probably had no idea they came from the same opera.
The Chunky Trucker
Yes, and it seems likely that more people are probably familiar with Carmen as an opera - which is certainly not a bad thing, as the opera itself is masterful. The first performance of the opera came about thirty years after the publication of the novel which it adapted.
Cuckoo Brilliantly put, mate ! Thanks !
An interesting theory, especially considering the dialogue starting from 3:10, now makes perfect sense!

I’ve always admired and been so impressed by Lana’s ability to create a story in her music. She uses such gorgeous, poetic lyrics but there’s always a story at the heart of her songs. Tragic, beautiful, heartbreaking, haunting, regretful, gorgeous stories….I just love her music so much. Never heard another artist like her and I honestly don’t think I ever will. She’s so beautifully unique ❤️
For people who didn't know this song is actually about lana herself, carmen=lana. "darling Darling doesn't have a problem, lying to herself cause her liqueurs top shelf" this line is telling how lana didn't think she had an addiction to drinking but she did. All the lines about the liquor are actually telling a story, Lana stated herself that when she was around 14 she got addicted to alcohol, all the kids at her school thought she was cool for it and liked her, plus she had the looks to convince them she was perfect: "the boys the girls they all like carmen" the addiction only got worse and lana's parents sent her away to boarding school to stop her addiction.
SHE WHAT?
Carmen it's not Lana, Carmen Was a prostitute
actually...no lol lana said its about a girl she use to know, a friend
I thought Carmen was a book character..
Sadness overwhelms me 😿
Listening to this in the last hour of me being seventeen just for that one line
“ *Only seventeen but she walks the streets so mean* “
Edit- LOL, I never saw how much this comment blew up! Glad we’re all baddies together 💁🏻♀️
Lmao i did the same before turning 18
Lol me too XD
I have 11 months left to enjoy that line😂
makes me see the song's about a 17 year old streetwalker.
This is amazing! I did not do anything lana in my 17! I so wanna have friends like that who loves this carmen aesthetic!! I am making a group on instagram of us girls if you are interested, DM me @theaestheticcult 💕
it was the best 17th birthday song for me thank u Lana
(now is im 18 now, still listening)
Thank you Lana for making my life beautiful💕
I was at a lana concert first row and as she began singing Carmen ... I could swear to all that I saw my aunt Carmen in the crowd who passed away at a young age a couple of years ago !! She was there with me during the entire song and vanished by the end of the song ... Magical song
U Know its so weird because I think Lana seems to want to live in the 50's - 70's again and she uses these old music that probably captivates many old souls who have passed away
This song is beautiful I would put this song on my funeral
Thats very beautiful :) THank you for sharing love :3
I really hope for your Aunt Carmen's sake that this is a lie, the whole thing is a sad story about a girl named Carmen who abuses drugs and achohol, working as a prostitute
Now what you think about Lana ? I think she change a lot:(
The classical ballad at the end is called Gymnopédie No.1
THANK YOU

I can't get over the beauty of this video
Bro, this song is perfect. The music, the lyrics, the video - it's all so enchanting.
I'm listening to Born To Die songs for the first time in a long time. It's crazy how much Lana is still very much Lizzy Grant in this era, more than I remember. From the sound to the look to the video aesthetics. I miss her higher notes sometimes!!!
Molly I was just thinking where can I hear he early early high voice stuff
who's lizzy grant?
Victor lanas real name is Elisabeth Grant and Lizzy Grant was her stage name before she called herself Lana del Rey
it was paradise, which was sorta in between lana and lizzy
I like this comment so much
Carmen and Effy (Skins) would be friends, lovers or enemies.
effy is literally carmen
Or Laura Palmer, or Rachel Amber.. or Ivy from Poison Ivy!
they were because carmen is kokain
They are, cause Carmen is cocaine.
YES
this song never gets old...
I would give almost anything to listen to this masterpiece for the first time again 💋
I think it's about her alter ego...the face she puts on for others...everyone loves Carmen...the fun one....but is Carmen really having fun. She always mentions putting a red dress on in some of her songs, almost like saying when the red dress comes out...she is who ever people want her to be.
that actually makes so much sense ^^^^^
Now you said it.... Possibly!
GOOBERRY803 its actually about a literature archetype.
wow electra heart who
There are two types of people in this world: People who know a Carmen, or are Carmen themselves.
There's also those of us named Carmen that also know another Carmen!!

This is possibly the darkest, saddest song I've ever heard. I never really appreciated its beauty until now.
The most underrated song with a dark meaning
Okay for all the people who are like "I WISH MY NAME WAS CARMEN" this song is about alcohol and drugs. Basically Carmen means Lana's teen years. She did have a bad alcohol and drug addition. "She's still shining like lighting" is saying Lana got through it all and still shining. "The boys, the girls they all like Carmen" is stating the fact that if alcohol was a person then everyone one would love her. "She gives them butterflies" is showing that beer and liquor make you throw up a lot, people also say that if they are nervous or sick they have butterflies in their stomach. "it's alarming honestly how charming" she is saying that even though she knew it was bad it could still be charming. "lying to herself because her liquors top shelf" she is lying to herself because she believed she had no problem and the second part my state that her liquor was high class and expensive.
There ya go. No more "I WISH MY NAME WAS CARMEN!" ☺
Disney. Have u considered that people were wanting to be named Carmen because of how much praise it gets....
Cameron Shaw but even if you don't see it as alcohol, who would want to be her? Are they listening the same song I am now? Who would want to live that life?
Well, Lana is recognizable by romanticizing issues like addictions and other problems, but here is very clear... How the fck would want to be this Carmen?!!!!

Who says, "So, tell me about life, and your dream girl" the voice is beautiful, is that Lana's voice?
The one at 3:10? If so, then yes, I'm pretty sure that's Lana (:
She says that?! I always understood "So talk to me Val why I'm your dreamgirl."

I thought she said "So, talk to me about why I'm your dream girl".

This is the BEST song of the album.

Lana fans: I want to be Carmen.
Me: I want to be Lana.
Can we just address why you SHOULDN'T want to be Carmen. Carmen is another name for cocaine or heroin idk what one but it's one of them. In this Lana is talking about how she had a drug and alcohol addiction. "Her liquors top shelf" in that sentence Lana is talking about how the alcohol she drank was high class and expensive. Although Carmen is a nice name, you SHOULDN'T want to be named after drugs.

Stills my favourite song after years
Same, born to die era will never get old
Lana Del Rey, you are a true gem in the world of music, and your songs will forever hold a special place in my heart.
I've been listening to this song for several years and every time I hear it it's like hearing it for the first time
fr
I feel like Marilyn Monroe was Carmen
same
@Edi I always think about Britney when i listen to this
@Edi what this song is about drugs how is that sweet
@Edi oop sorry lol
@edi wait that makes so much sense too...
"Only 17 but she walks the streets so mean" In a month i won't relate to that line anymore 😭
That word "seventeen" basically rhymes with every teen years, since all of them end with "teen".
So just sing it like "only 18, only 19" and u have 2 more years to relate to.
I'm turning 20 this august 13th. But gurl let me tell ya, nothing's gonna stop me from singing "only 20 but she walks the streets so mean".
"sometimes love is not enough and the road gets tough I don't know why"
Same 😭
Lol 8 months later but deadass my bday in April 😂
this aged well
Já pararam pra pensar que a Lana inventou todo esse conceito que a gente ver hj no Tiktok de juntar vários vídeos aleatórios em um só em modo speed up?
Rainha a frente do seu tempo
Carmen was my GRANNY’s NAME! My DADS MOTHER! ❤️💙💋✌️🌻🙏
im your grandma, respsct me
Obsessed. I can't stop listening to it.
+Bre Klein haha I also like very much
+Bre Klein Saame I think I've listened to this 15 times already.
+Bre Klein I've heard this song 2 years ago for the first time, and I listened to it almost every day for a couple of months. But I still can't stop listen to it if accidentally turn it on on my playlist. I mean, when I shuffle all the songs :)
Bre Klein something Kim K Will Say
John Morales lolololol ew such an insult
*Her mind's like a 💎*
Jakub Czerwiński she doesn't
Jakub Czerwiński ur funny u pal
saw her editing this mv at in n out burger on twitter😂
Is she talking about herself? This is such a dark song when you listen to the lyrics. Really reminds me of Effy from Skins.
Christina Zarazua She's said that this is the most autobiographical song she has ever written, but I don't know if it's hers (Lizzy Grant) or her character's (Lana Del Rey) autobiography.
Christina Zarazua I think it's about Lolita. Lana has many songs about this book. Carmen's one of Humbert's favorite nicknames for Lo. And the lyrics talk a little bit about how Lolita's life was.
I've always thought that
+blind maiden yes :) I think Lana was sort of obsessed with Lolita (Off to the races, Carmen, LOLITA) well you get the point.
+Christina Zarazua ikrr
Humbert used to call Lolita Carmen and the fact creeps me out as most Lolita related things do. I love the book just as much as I'm scared of it.
I get the distinct impression Lana had some kind of abuse from a family member in her past. Her songs are weaved with that thread time and again.
My greatest hope for her is she can heal from whatever had been done.
You're definitely supposed to be creeped out. Too many people get it into their heads that it was somehow not intended to be a terrifying depiction of abuse
Sritama Sen why is « lolita » creepy?
@@palomahortensia umm bc the book's about a relationship between an adult and a kid. Like it's an important topic if treated for what it is and what it was meant to be seen as (disturbing and awful) but too many people take it wrong and find it somehow "romantic" or "sexy" which is creepy af.
This poem about Carmen is in Lolita; Carmen, charmin’, darlin’
