Mine and UVs campaign has finally paid off, and we finally say goodbye to Dark Paradise as it kicks off our top 10! This was the sixth and final single from BTD, and did not even get a video in the end despite Lana intending to release one. Perhaps somewhat unsurprisingly this single was not received with much commercial success, however it was only ever officially released in Austria, Switzerland and Germany (despite this all, it did manage to get into the Polish top 5). Personally, I don't dislike this song, but I don't really associate it with being a single ever, so I don't think it should've got this high sad.gif What do you all think?

You now have until March 12th to vote for your least favourite where UV will see you with the next round! This is getting hard now ohmy.gif

I've gone for Young & Beautiful!

Thank gosh that is finally out, should have missed the top 20 and definitely nowhere near worthy of top 10 and some of the songs it beat.

Summertime Sadness for me now, was between that and High By The Beach. After that we're left with Lana's 11/10 moments heart.gif

Once again, I have gone with 'Summertime Sadness'. I listened to it recently just to make sure and yeah, it's my least favourite out of these. Just doesn't quite do it for me.

Blue Jeans for Me.

Nooo at 'Dark Paradise' out </3 absolute stunner of a song. Though having said that I'm actually surprised it finished so high!

'High by The Beach' once again.

Sad to see Dark Paradise finally out. I think this series of polls let me know it was actually a single in the end but it's always been one of the best on Born To Die, one of the absolute darkest even for her, unrelenting in its shadowy beauty.

Onto Young And Beautiful now until that's gone.

Surely the quality of the song should be the main point of focus rather than its status in her discography?

Summertime Sadness

If it is then "Dark Paradise" is TOO LOW

High By The Beach feels like the weak link here now.

All of these songs are of really high quality for me, I'm having to find some way to decide what to go for kink.gif

High By The Beach to go now and we have a largely flawless top 8. West Coast was the only one I really liked from Ultraviolence, otherwise it was all about Born to Die.

High By The Beach - such a strong selection left now!

Posted by: Atonement Mar 10 2016, 07:29 PM

Great results so far and I'm pleased that 'High by the Beach' seems to be the next to go. Awful song and should've left sooner (at least before 'Gods and Monsters', 'Brooklyn Baby' and 'Dark Paradise').

Ride for me now.
