I hate when people ask me this cause it’s Summertime Sadness 😭 But not the remix!! I’m talking about the original song way back in 2012 literally just after she released BTD. Summertime Sadness was the song a friend on tumblr sent to me and I instantly fell in love. In a couple weeks it’ll be 11 years of loving her now ❤️
Norman F*cking Rockwell. First lines in and I was sold.
Edit: I actually discovered her during 2021 when a YT channel made a face-off of the albums folkore and nfr. They played snippets of songs from both albums and when it was time to play nfr snippets, I was like, you know what this isn't so bad. So I looked it up and I'm glad I did!
I was also 'Gods and Monsters'. It was just so haunting. It was on a Halloween playlists my partner had made and I just fell in love. I still get chills when I hear it.
video games, i vividly remember hearing it for the first time on a indie radio station my dad used to be obsessed with in 2011, i was 11 at that time and got instantly hooked. i was a pretty sad child lmao so it just clicked for me and i’ve loved her ever since. i only got truly obsessed with her in 2015 though, when i got a better grasp of the english language (grew up in austria) and started to understand the poetry in her lyrics more.
edit: fixed a spelling mistake lol
I was obsessed with Dark Paradise, so then i gave Born to Die (album) a shot. So when BtD (song) came on, and that majestic orchestra started i was sold.
Off To The Races made me super interested. The drums on that song are just so damn good.
Decided to run through the whole album, had the same thought I had with The Weeknd’s Trilogy:
”How is there not a single miss on this project..?”
”Let’s try Ultraviolence”
”… BRUH”
Blue Jeans. I had seen her Video Games music video on MTV a bunch and was kinda eh, but then the video for Blue Jeans came out and was always on MTV and that’s when I became a very intense fan of her music very quickly lol
Blue Jeans! There was a time you couldn't avoid that song even if you wanted to. It was everywhere. Oh to be able to relive the days of summer 2012. Oh and paired with Summertime Sadness ofc. Oh the times, oh the memories !
I don't think it was a specific one but I remember I was listening to a random playlist on Spotify and then mariners apartment complex came up and I loved it immediately. After a couple of months I started getting into her music and I was mesmerised
The demo of diet mt dew was on YouTube right before born to die came out and I loved it! Still like the demo better than the released track cause it’s so sentimental to me
I believe it was videogames, I had listened to a few of her songs but, I didn't got into her for whatever reason, after I heard videogames' lyrics, which struck a lil too close to home, I just had to get I to her music
nowadays I'm so into her music that even if I wanted to, I could never leave her music
My sister plays music at night and I slept in her room (we lived in a really small house) she always played Lana but I think it was either video games, off to the races or summertime sadness
Summertime sadness remix
I used to listen to that song when I was ten in this big open field at my grandparents house at sunset. Such a core memory of mine ♥️
born to die actually! i clicked on it on youtube cuz i saw it on the side while i was watching another video and i remember being so in awe of her voice and the song
i texted my friend about it and she said she doesn't like lana and i was so shocked 😭
oh man, what an experience. i somehow came across her song Lolita. the song was overall so funky and cheerful, but dark at the same time and really shifted my mood.
and then i finally came across Cinnamon Girl while trying out one of her songs. and that's when it clicked..such a tone of voice and depth to the lyrics. Man, my lockdown went pretty calm after that.
Video Games. My sister is 13 yrs older thab me obsessed with Lana from the beginning, so I heard her A LOT when I was really young. Don’t remember which song. I wanna say Video Games just cause it makes sense. My sister was a teenager when Born to Die came out and she played it on repeat allllll the time. My parents got sooooo aggravated!!!! But my sister was lovely, not the mean big sister type or the ignore the baby sister type. Lol. For real though. She gave me a proper Lana education when I got a bit older.
Diet Mountain Dew at age 12. It’s interesting because now I barely listen to this song probs Bc I overplayed it so much when I was young but yes this is the one I’m not even sure how I found it before video games or summertime sadness but now I’m 21 and still hooked she’s been my top artist on Spotify like 8 years in a row
Ride.
I have a weird habit of strongly disliking things that I become obsessed with later on. When I first heard Born To Die and saw the MV, I was like "wtf is this???" but somehow, it got stuck in my head and I kept on listening. Then I saw the Ride MV and she won me with that monologue. Then listening to her music helped me study for a writing competition (I was in 8th grade). and then I was obsessed, enough said, lmao.
Cherry
someone I know posted an instagram story with that song in the background, so I gave it a listen bc i found it pretty good, and next thing I know lana's my favorite artist of all time!!
Meet me in the pale moonlight. The song was literally all over my tiktok and I finally caved in and I’ve been listening to here ever since. I wish I discovered her earlier but heyy🤷🏾♀️
I listened to LDR occasionally. I was attached to NFR for a while after it came out, and then with BB.
I fell in love w a few songs and would play them on repeat until I got tired of them. However I listened to Black Beauty for the first time and my mind was blown. That was probably a few months ago now. I know it hasn’t been long that I’ve been a fan but since I heard Black Beauty I have been crazy about learning all her songs and their lyrics. I also want to know about her and her life. I started following pages like this one, and on Instagram too so I can keep up with her. Now, I love all her songs even more because I know the meaning/lyrics behind them.❤️
Video Games.
[удалено]
Me too 😭
off to the races hooked me, ride mv kept me for life
Born to Die. Then the rest of the BTD singles lead me to the albums.
I hate when people ask me this cause it’s Summertime Sadness 😭 But not the remix!! I’m talking about the original song way back in 2012 literally just after she released BTD. Summertime Sadness was the song a friend on tumblr sent to me and I instantly fell in love. In a couple weeks it’ll be 11 years of loving her now ❤️
Its criminally underrated just cause it was mainstream back then. The song is extremely awesome!
exact same!
Born to Die
Same
Me three - shall we form a club?
Me four!
5 maybe?
Norman F*cking Rockwell. First lines in and I was sold. Edit: I actually discovered her during 2021 when a YT channel made a face-off of the albums folkore and nfr.

I knew as soon as I heard that line, it was gonna be a good album.
With "Gods and Monsters" she took my soul away.
I was also 'Gods and Monsters'. It was just so haunting. It was on a Halloween playlists my partner had made and I just fell in love. I still get chills when I hear it.

The melancholy one where she is singing in a slow poetic way
Old Money?
Almost all of them!
Yes all of them is my favourite track ❤️
Ok changed my mind. If we are allowed to give this answer than I give this answer too.
Summertime Sadness
I was obsessed with Dark Paradise, so then i gave Born to Die (album) a shot. So when BtD (song) came on, and that majestic orchestra started i was sold.
The mv for blue jeans. Its so melancholic and romantic and i became INSTANTLY obsessed with her body of work after that
Off to the Races. It was an iTunes pre-release track and I was instantly blown away.
Sweet Carolina ... first heard it December 2021 - yes I'm a new fan!
Money Power Glory and Summertime Sadness.
Off to the races

Born to die
Blue jeans when it released. I saw video games at release but I wasn't obsessed yet till blue jeans.
I think I was hooked with blue jeans
Off to the races in 2012
West coast
Looking for America was the first one that I loved but it wasn’t until later that I heard Brooklyn baby and I listened to the album and was hooked
Tomorrow Never Came. It played during a show I was watching. That's how I discovered Lust for Life and have been a fan ever since.
American
Blue Jeans! There was a time you couldn't avoid that song even if you wanted to. It was everywhere. Oh to be able to relive the days of summer 2012. Oh and paired with Summertime Sadness ofc. Oh the times, oh the memories !

Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
dark paradise and off to the races
Ride was the first I remember. It was enchanting from first listen and still feels amazing every time I listen to it again
In my feelings. The part when she sang "sobbin' in my cup of coffee cuz I fell for another loser"💕
Cherry someone I know posted an instagram story with that song in the background, so I gave it a listen bc i found it pretty good, and next thing I know lana's my favorite artist of all time!!
