Jenniferella 2,774 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Who did produce Young & Beautiful (both versions) ? I kinda feel like it has been "remixed" to fit more with the movie, I don't feel the Lana vibe in the original song "I have been writing LG5 since I was 13" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

n0ne 13,105 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Finally saw The Great Gatsby and yeah Young and Beautiful is pretty much the theme song for the movie but Together by The xx was utilized plenty too. Both songs worked well with the film, they added a sense of surrealism and majesty. "My people… need to let our bitchiness out.

Paper Planes 340 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I mean if she doesn't have any plans to actually tour in the US. She shouldn't even sale her music here. She's obviously built up a following here and why let fans buy your music from America if your so adamant against touring in the United States. tbh. I mean she even has a song called American. I love her, but that is upsetting to hear and I hope she has changed her mind. Exactly -_- Lana and her "European" preference... Bitch tryin' to pretend she's all European and ****. I hate how she doesn't like the U.S. and basically all her music is influenced by American figures and ****. Makes me MAD. Lana has built a liking for Europe because that's who's buying her music and loving her image. A lot of her singles from Born To Die reached the Top 10 in a lot of European countries. Meanwhile, most of the U.S. paid her diddly-squat. Her highest charting point on the Billboard Hot 100 was at #91 with Video Games until Young and Beautiful came along, because most of America was too busy hating her for that SNL performance. People like us that adore her don't make up the majority in this country, so the hate outweighs the love in her eyes. Would you prefer to tour in a country where the majority of the people hate you and are only coming to your concerts to bash you and create horrible reviews? delete it fat Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but its kind of a disservice to her fans. She could sellout the same venues Marina is playing, she's had 2 top 10 albums. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Lana's a bit more sensitive to backlash, and she's had much more than Marina has thanks to both her indie/sadcore style and that SNL performance. So, once she was dissed in the US, she fled. delete it fat Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio Radio 0 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 i agree with you, and i'm sure she had a very big market here, even if it is just in smaller theather, she will filled up easily. hope something about a us/canada tour will come out soon..

GagaObsession 1 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I will probably end up just going to see Lana alone too. Stuff my friends, not accepting the greatness that is Lana. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best friend is like this too. She loved Lana up until the point that the Ride video came out. Then she went on some tangent about how "anti-feminist" and "stupid" Lana is. She claims she's always felt that way, but it only came up after the Ride video was out So now, every chance she gets, she likes to bash Lana, which makes me want to explode delete it fat Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate how she doesn't like the U.S. and basically all her music is influenced by American figures and ****. Makes me MAD. Well, she says it in the Ride video doesn't she? She's for what America USED TO be. The imagery of the Old American values are appealing to Lana, but clearly it's not what she's seeing in the US right now. Not to mention Lana doesn't handle criticism well. She wants to be loved and respected and as others have stated, she's been pretty heavily bashed because of her SNL performance.

Paper Planes 340 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 the Ride video was her best one yet though I know She said that since she plays a prostitute in the video and makes it have happy intentions after it all plays out, she's not feminist. Then when I told her that there was a good chance that Lana was probably a prostitute/go-go dancer/stripper at one point, she called her trashy and fake for changing her name/persona/alter-ego. That's pretty stupid considering that she loves Gaga and yet doesn't have a problem with the fact that Gaga was addicted to d--gs, was a go-go dancer, and has a stage name/persona (obviously). I guess she's just gonna have to stay pressed, because at this point I've learned to just ignore her comments on Lana delete it fat Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
