FfFfFfFF 54,351 Posted September 2, 2019 Author Share Posted September 2, 2019 #1 | Ride AVERAGE: 10,66 HIGHEST SCORE: 11 from @Lanadelduck, @Varys, @Sneaky Oliver, @Anveeroy, @Jorget, @CatelynnMarie, @Miichael, @Cerny LOWEST SCORE: 6,5 from @FfFfFfFF COMMENTS @Sneaky OliverRide is one of the smartest videos of hers. It’s all about Lana channeling her deepest fantasies as they were an actual part of her real life. Ofc the monologue alone makes the video worthy-watching. @Miichael This video is a straight up MASTERPIECE. I think it was one of her first videos that I saw and it is simply one of her best videos ever tbh. The monologue is absolutely beautiful, all the different settings and locations are incredible, and the shot of her swinging on the tire in the desert is gorgeous. Not to mention “Ride” is one of my favourite songs of hers, the video does it complete and utter justice and is a cinematic masterpiece. @Cerny You can capture the entirety of it frame by frame and every single image will carry visual impact, the cast, the locations, the angles, the lighting, the colours, the wardrobe, it all comes together harmoniously into this decadent, melancholic, daring and sensual package, it tells you everything you need to know about Lana Del Rey’s general feel in the most liberating way, riding the open road, a romanticised notion of freedom, as it is narrated and played by Del Rey, the lovers and the bikers, and brilliantly directed by Anthony Mandler. I still think it’s her best accompanying visual to date. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it because it’s the line between reality and fantasy? I think the whole concept of the video is the idea that we’re all “dead” inside. We’re all holy created headed Earth to follow crooked ways and then eventually rising again to the heavens after redemption. I love the ethereal colors of Body Electric’s Garden Of Eden. Also the way she included Ginsberg’s and Whitman’s poetry!!! The flying saucers at the end might suggest that heaven is not the same that it used to be, like there’s a futuristic version of it (?). Interesting choice. @Miichael So artistic and so well made. There are some scenes I don’t like, but on the whole, the video is so gorgeous and really delivers on that “Lana aesthetic” that people have come to know and love about her. The Body Electric scene is one of my favourites, and I especially love some of the monologue she added throughout the video. @Cerny The robbery scene is brilliant. Overall, a tight, gorgeous package. I love all the multiculturalism, and the religious and old Hollywood imagery. @LazyTurtleThis Bible fanfic is god damn good, especially Eden part. @OG Gaga Stan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
