Im so happy she never let the media, the radio, the critics stop her from creating everything she created. A true poet
Yeah it all worked out for her
Ive only heard her on the radio once u so luckyy
Born to die is so legendary it’s still on the charts.
a long lasting impact.
It’s the most successful debut album in the 2010s decade
I’m so glad we got Lana Del Rey and she didn’t give up her talent. She really is one of the greatest artists in the industry
She has a really beautiful story
Despite all the love she currently receives, this woman still doesn't get credit for enduring what few artists have to go through to be successful. She deserves heaven for being so strong.
A great story
heaven is too far
@@SideEyeee_ lol I shouldn’t have even responded to you your name is side eye you already looking for drama 😂
@@StiloReacts oh, and? what should i do with this useless information you just gave me?
@@SideEyeee_ saying someone deserves to go to heaven isnt too far
We, really, should pay her respect for not giving up and continuing writing songs and music. At some point i can say she is underrated music genius, who, despite writing songs for more than 10 years still doesn't get the recognition she deserves.
And yes, she deserves Grammy more than Grammy deserves Lana
:)
And the fact that she wrote music for almost 7 years till she finally caught some eyes and people started talking about her. Crazy how she had to change her style, voice and appearance just to make it into the industry.
The thing is, she won't get it because she's doing pop, and she realized that- and is switching to country (new album in september) it's so hard to win pop grammys because you're combatting billie, taylor, sabrina, olivia, and SO SO SO SO many more artists, and no matter how good lana is, she won't ever win it in pop. hopefully with this new genre she can win country grammy, but it might be a challenge topping beyonce.
The A&W lyric wasn’t to be taken at face value, but more of a metaphor. The song in whole talks about losing the comfortability of childhood, and wanting to be loved. After going through lover after lover, she came to the conclusion that she is a “whore” in the eyes of the public (as you mentioned earlier) for just wanting to be loved and heard.
How I isolated it made it seem I had a problem with the actual lyric, which I understand how it came across, I’m only speaking about the subject matter and its delivery, I’m used to it being written in a different way structurally and melodically.
Its my favorite song on the album. I got the vinyl to listen to the album. Then was so happy I got it, the target edition is beautiful.
She’s an absolute gem and we are so blessed to be alive at the same time as her!
Ten years of being her fan and I was listening to ride the other day in my car and started crying. Her music has always been and will always be so moving. The only artist I can claim that has never failed to make me feel something.
She’s one of the only artists in music that I can fully claim that her art really moves me every single time, she’s a legend and her legacy is still reigning 🖤🖤
yeah i really had no idea prior to making this video.
the cultural zeitgeist of lana del rey needs to be studied in school. she changed the program, she changed the culture, she changed our lives.
That’s deep
Poetry ❤
Lana is so nostalgic and so iconic. She gives me butterflies every time I hear her music.
A few girls have told me this. That intrigued me for sure
@@StiloReacts its true, Lana has the best music ive ever heard its so different and so unique from everything else. theres nothing quite like her.
This woman is my mother. God bless her. ❤
I remember hearing Born to Die for the first time when I was still in nursing school. Her voice reminded me of a gangster siren. I remember thinking to myself, this girl sounded like no one else out there in the music industry and each of her songs was like a story in itself. She may have created a stage persona as Lana Del Rey but you could still see remnants of Lizzy Grant in her songs.
Lana deserves the success and accolades she is getting. I remember people initially mocking her, calling her fake, accusing her of using her daddy's money to fund her career, calling her anti-feminist and glorifying abuse. Many of those same people are trying to kiss her ass now that she has proved herself to be an exceptional and talented artist and songwriter.
Her music isn’t for a lot of people, that’s fair. I’m one of the biggest Lana fans, and I usually hate every song on the first play, but they grow on you. A lot of the songs make no sense and are unrelatable, but once I discovered her story and what she was actually singing about, that really helped me enjoy the music so more. There’s a lot of depth and references that you don’t understand unless you understand her story.
Which I totally get. And it might take me years to really sit with ALL of her work. I went into this video blindly, I hadn’t even heard a LDR song until maybe a month ago, and only did the video because the women I admire in my life thought so highly of her. I said she must be really impactful.
They grow on you, they grow on you I agree. You listen and you hear some parts and it makes you wonder about the nature of the song and what it could be about. Lots of depth in her music, you never get over the harmonic symphonies even when played 1000 times.
As a long time (since 2011) follower of Lana, what pushed her back in my opinion was that she surrounded herself with the wrong public feedback for a long time. She was the hottest on tumblr and among teens and young adults, but she was focused on how her industry peers and the pitchforks out there saw her work, and they were not her real audience. Her perception start to change around NFR and now it seems she finally realized she’s THE Lana del Rey.
Very common for a lot of acts who blew up via the internet like your odd future’s your asap Rocky’s etc, even The Weeknd. Which is probably why Abel embraced it so early. He had an idea of who Lana was early. I get it for sure
I think as an adult it was fair enough for her to want her peers and people within her own industry network to respect her. She managed to changed the tides by staying true to who she was and persisting, if she had given in too much to the adoration of teenagers on the internet, that may not have been the case. She has matured along with the music, in part because of how the industry responded to her.
@@danielvalentine969 from an artistic perspective yes, but marketing wise she could have been way bigger if she embraced her influence on that demographics. Of course, we’ll never know if it happened for the better or worse, because in one hand her stance of putting art first and commerce second lead her career to what we love today, but had she accepted the confidence boost that high numbers give, she could’ve embarked on way ambitious projects. Anyway, I’m happy (and I think she’s too) with how it all went (:
so well said!! :’) her success story is one of the most beautiful, triumphant and incredible in whole music history
the hate and doubts she received at the start of her career and canceling attempts stood in immense disproportionality to her incomparable talent, influence and grace and she only kept getting better and silencing the haters; and her whole career is proof that believing in yourself and having faithful people supporting you, can help you survive anything in this ruthless industry
this generation is so lucky to have this legend and it’s SO good that she’s finally getting recognized
I think it's the greatest example of a really good American story.
@@StiloReacts absolutely and thank you again for the amazing and so well researched video, we owe people like you that Lana could overcome all the unfair criticism and the opinions have slowly shifted to acclaim and appreciation :') those who show such respect and genuine intentions and share them with the world, shape the overall impression of an artist as much as the ill-willed critics (and more!) and ultimately talent wins!

10 years being a Lana's fan is something I can proudly flex about
love how people can't see that she is telling young girls about how she got in love with someone who abuses her but in a tone where u know at the end it is bad. I think people really misunderstood her lyrics. l heard so many women saying lana open their eyes when it came to abusive relationship. like she makes the victim find love for themselves instead of hating themselves. as for like even trans females her lyrics did you know there is a ... the lyrics are so well written she included all the women.... also I get i get it, her music was made for queer bottom men because those men can feel her lyrics.... one thing you can't deny: she is the "forbidden fruit"
She’s such a gem in a typical mainstream society. What I love about her is that she does whatever she wants she doesn’t write music for the charts
I can’t believe “critics” don’t like her more as she’s the first artist I’ve heard in decades who reminds me of the super talented singers of the 60s/70s. I’m a bit of a music snob in that I feel music today mainly sounds like bubblegum exploded in a room (pop) or utter noise. She is such a throwback and first artist I’ve enjoyed in YEARS. She makes you feel the music similar vibes to Sade or a 70s dreamy songwriter. She’s SO refreshing.
Lana is timeless
She's a legend
I hope Lana feels our love and awe
the line from american wh*re is sort of like setting up the second part of the song, after the heartbreaking first part, which gives necessary context to why she then goes and plays the character of being an “american wh*re”. She is essentially explaining why people end up in bad relationships and toxic ones, but instead she explains it in the first half, and portrays it in the second half. It’s important when people have such strong artistry that people look deeper into the meaning and context, because lines can easily become taken out of context and sold as bad- which has been a long running theme throughout her career, in songs such as ‘Cola’ where she blatantly mimics the so-called perfect American girl. She is a writer that is so far ahead of our time.
The point of me isolating that line in particular, just how it is delivered, to my ear, I may at times prefer it delivered differently from some of those artists mentioned in that Instagram post. She has the artistic freedom and depth to reach a wider audience, but music listeners are in so many different pockets. And we go to artists that we all best connect with. I go to artists to reflect how I feel deeply, as do you I’m sure of it. I can recognize that she connects to a lot of people, and she’s smart enough to understand how far her pen and emotional intelligence can/have taken her.
I also wanted to add, I didn't isolate the line to intentionally mischaracterize her. I did it as a conversation starter. A call to action with fans, if you will.
Thank you 🫶
But she admits to effing her way up to the top. Harvey W. Ya think the song might just be about her being a hoor?
Thank you for this video. Lana is my favourite artist, but it's really fascinating to hear from someone who doesn't personally connect with her music but still respects and appreciates how brilliant she is and how she has forged her own path and stuck to her personal vision through all the criticism she receives. Incredibly respectful and insightful video.
You’re very welcome ! Thank you so much for watching :)
I love this woman with a passion… have been listening for 9 years, thank you for making this video
I’m glad you enjoyed it :) thank you so much for watching
Mad respect to you sir for making this insightful video. I've been a fan of Lana since day 1, and amid all her flaws and misinterpretations from the press, she endured. There's only a few artists who became very popular not because of #1 hits or whopping album sales or being a darling of the press, but because of the cultural and musical impact they have brought to fellow artists and to the world. I'm confident and proud to say that Lana is one of them.
Thank you for watching ! I learned a lot from researching and also the response from fans. It’s been a very interesting experience thus far
This is an outstanding insight regarding our mother, Lana ❤️
Thank you ! :)
Mommy gib milk
She’s my secret wife.
In my opinion ultraviolence is her best album . BTD paradise is so magical and I would also say BTD is also her best
yeah i remember while listening to all of her albums, Norman Rockwell was more my jazz out of all of the albums, but ill probably sit with all of her albums and perhaps will get to live with the music a bit more to see what I connect with the most.
Discovered her music in 2019 and her music is what am living for currently
That’s deep
I'll tell you a curious fact, Abel Tesfaye, better known as The Weeknd, the singer, was responsible for Lana getting to where she is now. He met Lana through Tumblr in 2011 and they quickly became good friends since they shared things in common. . In addition, they both helped each other while each was in her musical debut. For example, Abel shared a lot of Lana's content on his account, just as Lana shared a lot of Abel's content to help each other and thus each one give a contribution in order to be even more recognized by the musical audience and all just before each one achieves fame. Abel was the first to ask BBC Radio 1 to include 'Video Games' in their playlist. In fact, in an interview, Abel admits that when he met Lana he felt that he had found the girl who wrote her songs, that is, he had found her muse for her songs. From there came great collaborations such as Prisoner, Party Monster where Lana sings vocals, Stargirl Interlude, Lust for Life and Money Power and Glory, an unreleased remix by The Weeknd for the album Kissland but the original is from Lana's album Ultraviolence. Today they continue to have a close relationship, despite the fact that in the music industry there is normally all kinds of competition or rivalries of all kinds, they continue to express their affection and admiration for each other since on social networks through publications and interviews they have made . references between the two after their collaborations; their lyrical and musical influences that both have in common since their songs usually have a dark and complex theme, in which both singers talk about topics such as love, fame, drugs or sex explicitly; and above all their relationship as great friends in the music industry 🎶
I saw :) she said it in an MTV News interview during the Lust For Life era. Yeah the have a close relationship from what I read. I believe the song is Video Games, right ?
@@StiloReactsYas you right
🦗🦗🦗?
@@Sswat19100 Just because you don't care about this comment doesn't mean others don't care. It's my comment, if you don't like it, don't read it, simple
I wouldn't say he's totally responsible...
She deserves every love and every win. I’ve been a fan and I’ve been in love with her since 2013.
Her songs saved my life.
I was at my lowest point. And her songs made me feel that I am not alone. That I don’t have to suffer and give up.
She is the greatest.
I love you Lana!
Ps. Her stage presence and voice have greatly improved. She’s getting better. And it looks like she’s overcoming her anxiety on performing for large crowds. And her smile is everything what’s right.
I thought this was gonna be just another video about Lana where someone did the bare minimum amount of research on her but it seems like you really put in the time to put together a well informed video essay. Keep them coming :))
Thank you ! I really appreciate that ❤️
She’s my idol for many years. Pretty much I listen only to her music.
this is so beautiful thank you
You’re very welcome glad you enjoyed :)
She is definitely amazing, I just wish she would stop showing up to the grammys which are clearly rigged, they nominate her just so she can show up for the ratings, if they haven't given her a grammy at this point they are never going to give her one, that's okay because she doesn't need to prove anything to anyone, we all know she is great.
Yeah for a lot of artists the Grammys aren’t their thing, and yeah I’m sure it’s filled with politics.
@@StiloReacts I just like the performances, I don't care about who wins, your opinion doesn't matter to them, so why care about their opinion, Grammys don't really hold any significance except the significance you put on it.
The Swiftie cult is obsessed. They will do anything and spend any amount to keep TS on top 💰💰💰💰💰 Money buys Grammys but not forever. TS advertising her new album while on stage accepting at the Grammys this year turned off a lot of her peers. I think the Grammys realize they cannot keep giving them to her because she made the most money or they are going to have everybody else turn against them. Lana should’ve won the Grammy this year not Taylor. Many of Taylor‘s peers are catching onto her tactics and her sneaky underhanded tricks and they’re not liking it. To wait till somebody’s about to drop an album and that same day drop things on hers by adding things changing things just to keep theirs down on the charts.
@@sunny5357 I agree, very narcissist to think that everyone in the crowd and everyone watching cares about your album release, not everyone cares, instead of saying something motivational she just did an advertisement, her fame has gotten to her head. And her fans defend this behavior, they're brainwashed.
She definitely deserves her flowers💐 I just hate the way people criticize her and hate on her because she is just amazing! She is outstanding. Her growth is just beautiful!💝
Yeah I love stories like that ! To persevere when things look bleak
This is so well informed and beautifully put together. Thank you!
You’re welcome ☺️ thank you so much for watching !
i feel like in a way i grew up being able to romanticize the small moments, the mundane, in part because of her. there were other artists too. but i felt so trapped where i was, and i was feeling so divided from other artists and the vision they were selling of overconsumption and honestly it felt stiff and inhuman. lana felt more human to me. i used to listen to her songs with my brother and dream about moving out. as she's grown, i'm glad she's evolving as an artist in the way that she sees fit, but i still connect to her music from the beginning of her career more than the music she's been putting out lately. i did really love the song paris, texas. she has lines like "when you know you know". i actually sampled it for a beat i made because i loved that sense of intuition. and that sense of trusting oneself, which i feel so many have been steered away from. i don't like her comments about other artists and how she has kind of dragged them into the convo about her being judged. i think it's centering herself. which is a very white woman thing to do honestly. i'm studying her career right now, because i think it's not only interesting but also she's like kind of the blueprint for being "different" than mainstream yet having the mainstream spotlight on her. this was a really good video and i appreciate that you made it, even if she's not someone you resonate with musically.
I like how you came from a more artistic and songwriting perspective, I can tell you dabble in artistry. And I try to approach these from that angle, I also wanted to be honest without being disrespectful, I’m glad you found this video and I’m happy Lana has done a lot for you in your journey, I certainly have artists like that… that were very important in my development and journey. DM me some of your work I’d love to hear it !
Thank you for this video. Been a follower of Lana since 2013 and its so true her music is like more a connection. Its not for everyone but once you know her story you will understand her music and you will enjoy it more.
She has been always my comfort artist, she is my LIVING LEGEND.
You’re welcome ! Thank you for commenting and for watching ! Appreciate the insight
If she’s not your cup of tea, you never had the lore
B2D, Blue Jeans, Ride, Blackest Day, Money Power Glory, Melancholia, Pink Champagne, Cry Kill Die, In My Feelings, White Mustang, A&W, Venice B!tch, Fishtail, etc… she’s the greatest artist of all time in my opinion.
Yeah I think I’m going to need more time to just live with her music in addition to the time spent making this video.
What a beautiful video, thank you for sharing ❤
I’m happy you enjoyed it thank you for watching :)
It takes courage to be true enough to yourself that you’re willing to put your art out, knowing it’s different. People criticize that which they don’t understand. Yet, she continues to maintain her integrity and doesn’t cave. Sure, she could be like everyone else and sell out arenas, a la Taylor Swift. But is the compromise worth it? She would be miserable. She had said on multiple occasions that she writes and sings for herself. But, she’s sensitive and she’s lover, so the judgment does hurt. Yet, she perseveres.
Great video ❤ I remember watching all these interviews when I first found her, such nostalgia watching back and seeing her success since then.
Thank you ! I appreciate you watching. As someone who didn’t hear much detail from Lana prior to starting this video, I was very surprised by her story.
The one thing I WISH I would have included in this video was her “I made it” moment. She said it was a performance in I believe Arkansas? For over 70k people. I found that to be interesting :)
@@StiloReacts That would’ve been a great ending, this was so well put together either way. I also loved her stare at the Coachella crowd earlier this year, her eyes just gleamed in awe and self-realization.
@@perlanegretee9679 ❤️ I heard her Coachella performance was really solid! I’ll have to watch a live feed online :) I’d love to see how the crowd responded to her
I love her sm
Lana seems to float through a universe of emotions with her beautiful lazy melancholic voice. She delivers her poetry with an almost disinterested acceptance of heart break. Best female artist since Joni Mitchell.
Joni Mitchell, that’s good company !
A&W is about her relationship with a man who completely broke her. She’s not saying she’s an American w*, but rather that this is how she feels the man sees her. During their couple’s therapy, she discovered he was secretly engaged. Additionally, she sings about her traumas (I can’t use the word she mentioned) and the objectification of her body.
Okay so I take accountability for taking the line out of context for how it was being used in the song, but the point of what I was making doesn’t change. The point I was making is how she writes sometimes doesn’t catch my ear in a way that is digestible for me. (*personally*)
I love how she blasted him during Chemtrails performance last year at one of the European shows sorry can’t remember which one it was
She doesn’t glamourise abuse, she speaks up about topics such as women loving an abusive partner…
Understood.
yea, she gave a voice to girls like me that didnt have any representation in the pop space before. she sung about real experiences that the sugar sweet pop artists of her time and before would not approach.
@@-divinetragedy ikr ! And then people start saying crap like “ she’s glamourising abuse” ?
Great job with the video! Plus the gifs and such are so nostalgic, I used to look those up for my blog💀😂
Thank you ! Yeah I like to use them gives it a tumblr like effect especially for our generation lol
This is a very thoughtful & well put together video!
aw thank you so much!!! :)
I've liked lana since was a child, like 7 or 8. My life was not easy growing up and as cliche as it sounds she is quite literally an escape for that. One of the most beautiful things about her and her music is that it is so niche to a specific type of person, especially girls. People mistake her for glorifying abuse and such but as a listener who has lived through those tumultuous bonds, it isn't a matter of glorifying it but finding an uncomfortable comfort in the sadness. Her music genuinely is a provision of hope, helping me see through the uncomfortable feelings that cannot be voiced and only felt. Your regular person or critic can not comprehend the nostalgic and dreamy feeling her words, lyrics, and melodies provide. She is an otherworldly singer something that only a select few can understand, her audience.
Yeaah i get that.
Lana is one of the greatest artists of our generation
I can’t argue with you on that one tbh, regardless of my personal preferences.
Thank you for this video. She is one of my all time favorite artists. Since tumblr days. I am so glad people are understanding her, yes, the early days were very rough and people had so many opinions without having listened. Everything in life is not manufactured and cheap, just because some pop is.
Yeah I wanted to make sure I at least listened before forming an opinion. I was surprised that was her story.
@@StiloReacts your research is evident. You did a great job with this. I just subscribed, and I look forward to discovering your content!
@@leavecowsalone Thank you! I appreciate it :)
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE LANA DEL REY. HER MUSIC IS UNIQE, SEXY, HONEST, ITS DARK & BEAUTIFUL. I SEE HOW MUCH SHE HAS INFLUENCED OTHER ARTISTS LIKE TAYLOR SWIFT. TAYLOR JUST WON ANOTHER AWARD & LANA WAS THERE TO SUPPORT. I CONNECT WITH LANA’S MUSIC THE WAY I CONNECT WITH MY OTHER FAVORITE FEMALE ARTIST, “STIVIE NICKS”
THEY ARE BOTH AMAZING & ARE SPECIAL STORYTELLERS. I KNOW THAT LANA IS NOT A FAVORITE WITH THE CRITICS BUT WHO GIVES A F_CK. SHE IS A FAVORITE OF MILLIONS OF FANS ALL OVER THE WORLD!! 🌎 ❤ 🦋 🔥 🎸 😘
:)
Well said great video ❤❤
Thank you!
LUST FOR LIFE is one of the greatest albums of all time.
Great video!
Thank you !
Well researched and edited and bonus points for not using an obviously ai generated script or voice 👍🏼 keepin it real
Thank you so much. I appreciate that
Love this! Her music might not be for everyone and that is ok but I still think she deserves respect for everything she puts into her work. She is so caring! And the fact that she didn’t give up even when everyone was treating her horrible really says a lot. And im so glad she didn’t give up! ❤
Glad you enjoyed it! I agree :)
as a diehard lana fan, she isn’t for everyone. i’ve seen many friends not like her music then turn to love it or just continue to dislike it
yeah we all got different taste
Wow i really respect you for respectfully saying she is not for you after doing this amazing analysis! Hate her or love her but she is one of an kind
Thank you ! I really appreciate it. And yes I plan to spend a lot more time with her music and I believe I will grow to appreciate it more !
What a deep, meaninful, beautiful and inteligent observational vídeo about Lana! Congratulations!
Aw thank you ! I really appreciate that :)
Lana is absolutely gorgeous and talented.
I remember listening to the first album and thinking, 'she's good'. I put her on my radar for new music. The second album blew me away. Since then, I grew up, and I am thrilled for every new album. I was thinking today ,'My favorite album is chemtrails over the country club', but tomorrow it will be a different album, I know that. And that makes her an outstanding artist to me 🧡
why did this make me cry omg
Oh no :(
She's a Legend.
Great points to reflect.
:)
her lore is so interesting
It is !
I love her with my whole heart ❤
That’s sweet :)
Stunning, Epic Force .....
I became a die hard Lana fan when I first heard video games getting ready to go to highschool in the morning. I was 16 years old. A&W is another song I really love. She's speaking on how love can make you feel beautiful, at least that's how I interpret it, while also highlighting the fact that being in love makes you do crazy things. As a woman, those "crazy things" can be looking like a "whore" from the outside looking in. She's framing it as she's seeing ppl give her looks and side eyeing her for being in love. To her it's love but others make her feel like she's being a "whore". She is being blinded by love not realizing that this relationship is toxic while the outsiders can see that the relationship is not genuine. So it almost like the song is self aware of how she may look to others so she will say it before someone else can criticizes her on it. Not sure how cohesive this all sounds but I promise I can clarify.
I want to add that her making that post about "the culture" was during a very political time. I think it was around COVID times and it def felt like an outburst. I don't think she meant to call out only black women artists. I don't think race had anything to do with her comment. The most famous artists at that time and still currently now happen to be black. I will agree tho that the delivery was not great and is very easy to misunderstand but at the time I remember America was really becoming dismantled by conspiracy theories and the general feeling all around was just chaos. She also doesn't really ever say much publically so it was definitely an unhinged moment for sure. It can easily be misinterpreted. Music is outright sexually explicit these days. Maybe she meant that she was writing the same kind of music as those artists and not being as explicit while also taking a different perspective and making it more general.
Yeah I think that post is the main reason I wanted to do the video because I don’t like to have an opinion on things I’m not at least a little informed about. I had zero idea she had the path less traveled. I looked at her (prior to this video) pretty much how a lot of people look at Taylor Swift (which is actually what inspired me to go down her music rabbit hole as well)
Often times people are misunderstood, she’s very much so misunderstood I can admit, and she’s very soft spoken in interviews, I learned in Interviews she’s like this is the music this is how I was feeling kind of thing. She doesn’t approach a lot of interviews looking to prove anything or even necessarily clear the air, (unless a song topic that is now irrelevant relevant to how she feels and see the world now) Lana actually hardly comes across my timeline. But we all operate within different social media algorithms. It can be largely divisive at times I’ll admit.
I just heard a lot about her from women I’d go on dates with from time to time. One girl said Lana basically saved her life so I was very intrigued by that.
I really am not a Taylor Swift fan at all. I can admit she's had some good songs but I have no desire to explore anything Taylor Swift related. My algorithm is very diverse and I love finding obscure artists and following them to stardom. Doja cat, Jack Harlow, juicewrld, were some of the artists I saw grow into stardom . I loved them before they blew up and I love that my algorithm shows me different artists and genres. I am a music fiend and I add to my playlist pretty much everyday. What I love about Lana is her mysticism and embracing of life in a way that I can relate to while heartedly. The idea of trusting in a divine plan. Life is beautifully chaotic yet nothing happens by coincidence. Its why my favorite band is Tool. I'm very big on spirituality and trusting in the universe. Music should be spiritual. It goes back to the roots of humanity I feel. Nothingness is something. Something is everything. We all assign meaning to ourselves and the way I listen to music is just for that.
@@ladyjane8527 Yeah that's very true.
im 26 started music four years ago, one thing I always kept in mind was how Lana got her breakthrough at 27 pray for me 🙏🏻 remember my name
best of luck to you!
Mitski reference
i love this video
I love that !
I remember when I first discovered Lana in high school. My friends all thought she was lame. So I found new friends. ❤ always Stan miss Lanita 💫
She’s very much different than your typical pop star so I get that. It’s definitely like if you get her she’s for you
I’m a fan of plenty of artists like that
Lana saved me
thats one of the reasons why i was curious about her. Ive heard this quite a few times.
I love her so much so much I love her so fucking much
thats really sweet.
I can agree that the line you mentioned in the last section of your video not really fitting well or being easy to digest (- I also got whiplash from it IMMEDIATELY when I first heard it), but I think many things in life are not easy to get through, and that sometimes reality is in fact harsh. I think once you accept that particular hurdle from the lyric, it becomes a lot less jarring and more representative of a very painful story she has decided to tell us through song. AW features a few older sound clips that never made it to other records. I'm glad she found a space for her Jimmy Coco Puff clip. Also, quick mention that Asap Rocky's repost on Tumblr of Video Games in 2010 was the starting point of her main block of fame.
I've read a few of your replies on other comments, and I hope you can love her one day! She's always said that first she's a writer/poet, then a musician. The music videos and photos are her last priority.
Yeah, I guess I was expecting her to be softer on the ears, so I heard the music first and then read on her and watched interviews and I was able to make sense of it a little more.
Tumblr was a big vehicle for her, as you mentioned Rocky, also Abel was instrumental in sharing her earlier music, if I were to say a Sonic cousin to her music that’s more palatable for me is Kali Uchis. I thought Lana’s music existed in the same space, and in some cases it does. But I don’t come from the same world as Lana, so I have to find a middle ground in the music that also overlaps with my experiences so that I can get her in that way.
So far Norman Rockwell is the album that was my favorite on first listen, but it may change ! Music has a funny way of growing on you as time passes as you know
I’m a big visual and music video person, huge. If I can get your artistic direction visually I will make the connection sonically.
Mom ❤
they called her fake bcz she was too real for the music industry, built on lies and fakes, to understand
To me, A&W is the best thing she's ever done. It's gritty, stingingly honest, and exactly what it feels like when you're in so deep you know you might never get out again. The lyrics are unsparing and unflinching, and more beyond hopeless than hopeless. But many people are horrified by it all. The drug-like aspects of it will probably feel foreign unless you've been there.
This is a very chilling description. Yeah I suppose our experiences just don’t overlap or connect on that specific record.
Yay!
:)
I really enjoyed this analysis!🐵
Thank you ! :) I appreciate you for watching

There is only one Lana.
My mother was Elizabeth Grant love that Lana is too.
That’s cool :) 😎
I wasnt big on lana when she was first hitting pop radio to be honest i didnt like summertime sadness and wouldnt listen to her because I couldnt go anywhere without hearing it BUT once I heard Lana in The Great Gatsby I started looking her up and now I like pretty much every song and every album...Also Lana has wrote and published a poetry book and I want to read it n buy it so badly. But then again I have always even before lana was an artist I have loved jazz and blues and will listen to jazz and blues before anything else so im what they would call biased.

She didn’t play by the rule of the game when she started, sadcore, americana, the vintage art. It was unusual and least liked, but she just keep on going because she’s just unapologetically herself
I respect it
Did you listen to West Coast from Ultraviolence? I feel like that's the best song for people who aren't usually into her music, also my personal favorite
I listened to every album prior to making this video. The songs I liked from her appeared on Norman Rockwell
❤❤❤
❤️❤️
What’s the song playing in the background in the beginning?
I’m actually not sure cause I deleted the Final Cut file :/ but likely it’s a Lana Del Rey type beat from CZcams.
Me encanto mucho el video, esta bien representado todo, me enorgullece lana, pero la verdad me hubiese gustado que no fuese en su mayoria solo hablando de cuando lanzo born to die, quizas viendo un poco mas de cada album como paradise, falto ver mas hacia el futuro por ejemplo en la era de COTCC o BB, sobretodo hablar de el album ocean blvd y mas que nada, sobre su actualidad en la industria, no solamente del 2012
Eso es justo, pero el objetivo del vídeo era hablar de lo difícil que fue para ella superar la etapa inicial. Una vez que encontró a su audiencia, no importó lo que dijeran los críticos. La voz de los críticos sólo importa cuando rompe al artista, no cuando despega o encuentra su ritmo.
Este también habría sido fácilmente un video de dos horas si hubiera cubierto cada ciclo del álbum de esa manera con tanta profundidad.
Y cuando no sabes si un vídeo tendrá éxito, es difícil justificar la publicación de un vídeo de una o dos horas o más.
También eres fan de lana. Y si estuviera tan profundamente involucrado en la historia de un artista como tú, y hubiera vivido estas diferentes etapas de la carrera de lana, este video probablemente sería diferente. pero hice lo mejor que pude considerando que nunca había escuchado una canción de Lana del Rey antes de hace 3 semanas.
@@StiloReacts muchas gracias por este video, me encanto mucho, siempre es bueno ver como esta el progreso de lana y ver cosas que no sabia antes
10:50 does anyone know where this video is from? I never seem to be able to find it
I think it’s just a scene from Music To Watch Boys To music video
Lana is one of the GOATs
I’m inclined to believe so.
Best singers of all time lmao
🤷🏾♂️
As for that statement she made.. I don't think it had anything to do with race - Ariana by the way is just Italian with a tan like myself lol and a very soulful singer. But all the others do really make a lot of sexual music, in fact i can't think of anyone else to add to that list. Also, her new album was about to drop at the time, as well as a poetry book or something like that, so i think it was meant to grab your attention, and maybe a little controversy while pointing out the fact and frustration that ppl criticized her but other ppl got big off it.
Makes sense!
Camila is white (a mostly white latina) too. She was naming top artists/artists with hit song during that time... Was it a little tone-deaf considering most if not all of women she named have recieved a lot of criticism about their own expressions of sexuality? Yeah, though i don't think she meant for it to be as pointed as it came out, i dont think it was coming from a place of wanting to tear down the other artists (these were all artists she likes)
She basically highlights the middle America struggles...maybe her romancing it helps her get through the pain of living it. I didn't see race in her calling out those ladies. I think she called them out, because they are doing the same thing in the way they use their platform with their struggles. Being biracial and having one middle class parent and one growing up with gangs. I see both sides. In music we want to use our experience (if you are writing your own) to capture a piece of life to share. Cheating, no clothes, all the clothes, black, white, whatever... It's an experience you are sharing. We won't understand it. Chem trails or city streets - at the end of the day. We all are seeing the same things in a different lifestyle, and in different place, in a different way...but all the same. We are at the end of the day.
Yeah I don’t have a problem with her using music as a vehicle to make sense of, and even heal from the pain. I also have no problem with it connecting and resonating with so many people as it does. At the end of the commentary I’m only speaking about what the ladies that were mentioned in the post, how their music resonates in a completely different frequency than her music, one that I resonate with. I think these experiences that your highlighting is the reason why music is subjective. I can’t tell anyone how to feel when her music or anyone’s music comes on, and if I’m attracted to that music, that’s the soundtrack to my experiences and life. It’s okay to not like the same things. I just have a fascinating for understanding why people create the way they do. That’s my curiosity.
Good Video
...... but...... -and I hope I don't come out mean-....... the audio (mostly towards the end) was puncturing my eardrums (even though I turned the volume to the lowest)........... other than that the rest was really well done.
I’ll look into that for the future thanks
Can you react to sinead harnett album boundaries
Hey I’ll try still catching up on reactions I missed
