Paradise

Product Information

Was I the only one who thought that the track listing on the back implies that there are 3LPs inside? Del Rey is in perfect control of her voice, much more assured than she was even one year ago, and frequently capable of astonishing her listeners. She achieved critical and commercial success with her second album, Born to Die (2012), which contained the sleeper hit "Summertime Sadness". As the last two are in my opinion anyway are highly personal to Lana and show her in a new some what fragile light.

She has described herself as a "gangsta Nancy Sinatra" and cites Britney Spears, Thomas Newman and Bruce Springsteen as her musical influences. Top positions in the charts worldwide, countless reports, awards, TV appearances, concerts, festivals and all the wonderful covers and cover stories: Lana Del Rey already deserves the title "Artist of the Year"! Paradise's lead single is "Ride," a downtempo pop ballad produced by Rick Rubin and co-written by "Video Games" author Justin Parker. On October 10, Del Rey premiered the music video for "Ride" at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica, California.Via social media platforms, Del Rey released several promotional images for the film, one depicting Del Rey in a wimple reminiscent of Mary, Mother of Jesus and another with Del Rey holding a snake and posing as Eve, the biblical wife of Adam from Genesis. Closing the review, Williot said the EP was best listened to "while wearing formal cocktail attire that has become slightly rumpled following some sort of intense argument and/or sexual dalliance. Burning Desire", the album's second promotional single, was used to promote the Jaguar F-Type model; at a promotional concert, Del Rey sang the song, wearing red lipstick, because the model features a built-in lipstick holder. The box has cardboard inside to fill up the missing space from the Born to die album I think was supposed to be there. Billboard wrote: "Ride' is a long, dreamy ballad that swells into full view during the chorus, when the singer declares, 'Been trying' hard not to get into trouble/But I, I've got a war in my mind… so I just ride.

Released ten months after the original, The Paradise Edition features eight newly recorded tracks, which were simultaneously made available on the standalone extended play Paradise (2012). All of these tracks have a retro feel to them and sometimes like american for instance focus heavily on american symbolism and ideals so if your looking for something different from Born to die then your looking in the wrong place sadly.The song's chorus of "I sing the body electric" is a direct reference to his poem " I Sing the Body Electric". Hindustan Times criticized the song snippet, saying it proved she was running out of ideas and that her songs all sounded strangely similar.
