EXACTLYYYY. it's crazy how people make her so insecure... makes me so sad cause i understand the feeling. and she's so talented i hope one day she feel more confident with herself. she sings amazing live tho
I forgot she used to sing this way, its so wild and expressive, I kind of missed it. and I realised Lana now sounds more shy than Lana at the beginning.
This really was a lifetime ago... I can't believe it..... But after being ripped to shreds can u blame her for changing her singing style? It's still similar now but not as wild and sounds more palatable. Not everyone enjoys this style :(
she had more vocal stamina then, she can sustain notes in all registers of her voice. Now she can only really sustain notes in her upper lighter mix (like ariana, but ariana has INTENSE vocal stamina and can make her voice BIG)
her stage presence reminds me of amy winehouse here. no need for anything, minimal set, no dancers nothing. all eyes are on here because she’s so enigmatic. God I wish I could turn back time. I’d pay so much to see Lana at the start of her career.
@@bunnyskiddadle1477 somewhat yeah. in the beginning it seemed she wanted to be singer/performer badly and gave her all, nowadays often i get the feel that shes bored on stage and lazy, like she doesnt want to be there.
@@liska7872 yeah. And she had a whole other vibe to her. Now I think her producers or managers are trying too hard to lump her in the same genre as like miley cyrus or smth but it isnt her vibe. I even miss the way she cut and filmed her own music videos. They should give her more creative control.
Quite literally , i fell in love with lana in 4th grade and at the time she was still doing covers but now her stage presence is so much different, it feels so mainstream and although i would love to go to a concert, i just wish i coukd expirience this.
If she is taking care of herself vocally, good diet rest, and vocal care regimen (even a coach), her voice shouldn't be getting any weaker and she shouldn't have to change the way she sings so dramatically to protect it
32 is not that old vocally speaking. The vocal cords are actually one of the last to begin aging, they don't begin to age until you are 60/65. But yes your voice does deeper gradually with age
This song is one of her most overlooked and I don't see why. Off To The Races is a stellar performance! For me, I love it because its the most wild of all her songs and I really didn't think she had it in her. It surprised me when I first saw it. Love it.
I dont know what it is... Her performances aren't crisp but its like listening to pure ART. The rawness of it all mixed with sensuality and passion... its all so beautiful and it feels REAL. ... I'm now a fan.
Goddamn that was PERFECTION.. Stupid time has to pass and ruin everything. I mourn the loss of this version of Lana and I'm sure she does too. She hit those high notes live, no pitch correction or anything, I'm floored.
Jacob Murray She has multiple demos. This may have just been a version that is different from what was released, considering this was sang before BTD came out. I mean, look up what Dark Paradise originally sounded like. lol
@@ihavecrabs56 yep! look for: "Lana Del Rey and Nikki Lane - Breaking Up Slowly (Live in Texas/April 4)" from the second 1:16 'till the end, she does the babyvoice, a high falsetto like lizzy and the old yodely voice all in that little span! let me know what you think :b
@@octaxlugo3540 OMG i just checked and SHE REALLY DID!! even the lizzy voice omggg! im guessing she must have felt comfortable because it looks like a very small/personal venue. i love how us fans can take notice of all of her different voices and appreciate each one of them
Miss these stage performances. She’s so authentic then and now, however, here I feel like she’s really in her element and exuding an effortless allure by her niche vocals, elegant dresses and 50’s make up looks, starlet hair. She’s always gorgeous but the born to die era never fails to be one of my favorites (style, and visual wise!! Doesn’t imply for her music because she is still on point
I love watching how she changed in all of the different eras of her career. She's so special and crazy talented in every one of them. She'll always be a living legend for sure
Kids 50 years from now will look back at these videos wishing they grew up on Lana Del Rey / saw her during these early performances ...we should all appreciate the queen even if not everyone enjoys this singing style u have to admit it’s way better than the generic shit they have out
Off to the races is a classic Lana track.. I miss when my baby performed like this. More free and self expressive versus now she holds back. Regardless I love this woman and her performances.. #LDRFOREVER #PARADISEFOREVER 🌴 👒💐💋⚡️
She comes from the same well that brought us Leonard Cohen and Don McLean. She is tapped into the 'creative flow' which you will recognise if you're a scientist, painter, musician or anyone who is creative. It is when you are 'the tool' and something bigger flows through you. Paul Simon talked about it on a radio interview a while back. James Clerk Maxwell, the father of electromagnetism also talked about it. That is why people are so entranced. It is the collective consciousness we share.
I can't even breath.... 🥰🥰🥰 this is the best performance of Lana Del Rey Off to the races, her style her voice, her everythings are made me fly till now 2021
I love her i still remember the first time i heard of her when i was 12 now i'm 20 and have been able to see her progress makes me feel so proud of her... i miss her old performances but the new ones are cool as fuck too
I would stay that off to the races is probably my favorite Lana song…. Makes me feel unexplainable things- freedom, euphoria, I don’t even know. It makes me feel like I have a lust for life
i knew her music before she got famous and she is so real and authentic. this video is so good bc her voice gives me goosebumps and also her stage presence is so on point and feeling passion from her. born to die album is literally top three best to exist. it’s literally so amazing. lana is a legend
This is basically the singing style she did on SNL but the audience wasn’t getting it. I bet it was awkward for her to also depend on the SNL band/track vs the people she usually toured with.

Isn't that the truth 😂😂💞💞
I agree. In her other videos with the dancers in this song she looked absolutely pissed.

she still perfomaces that way. she is very minimalist in her live performances, because she knows that only she is enough
I miss these simple yet elegant performances: outfit and hair on point, no dancers, just her band and her voice
Much like hope Sandoval in mazzy star
Yess
YEEES. NOW SHE HAS A LOT MORE DANCERS 😭😭😭
yeah. damn, i HATE those useless dancers
Quite literally , i fell in love with lana in 4th grade and at the time she was still doing covers but now her stage presence is so much different, it feels so mainstream and although i would love to go to a concert, i just wish i coukd expirience this.
It's 2024 and it's still a masterpiece
I miss when she was this confident. I live for those early Million Dollar Man and Body Electric live performances. They were different 😂
Wow this looks like it was filmed in the 70s and it sounds amazing live she's so talented
I'm out of breath when singing along to this track.
Me too :D It is really hard to sing
Not it's not !!!!!! I sing it like a pro
ced when I vacuum and no-one can hear my I belt out this entire song and I'm like breathless by the end of it😥😥😥
Freddy Garcia yeah, sure...
Freddy Garcia video?
She performs / sings a lot better now.. but idk I kind of prefer when she sang like this, with different voices.. so unique!
exactly! i have a theory that lanas vocals are getting weaker and she doesn't perdorm like that in order to protect her vocal chords.
If she is taking care of herself vocally, good diet rest, and vocal care regimen (even a coach), her voice shouldn't be getting any weaker and she shouldn't have to change the way she sings so dramatically to protect it
32 is not that old vocally speaking. The vocal cords are actually one of the last to begin aging, they don't begin to age until you are 60/65. But yes your voice does deeper gradually with age
She smokes guys...
@@anthonywill she smokes, plus she has out her vocal chords in a lot of effort.... She may have accelerated the aging process
I wish she still had this confidence...
She is way more confidant but now she knows what's better for her.
@@odin8352she is not😂
@@odin8352 she isnt
I think this song is the most difficult to sing in live. Lana made it.
hi 11 years later😂 BUT YES YOURE RIGHT
So far, still one of the most difficult songs of her to sing.
still crazy that after all these years she still ends her concerts the same way.
it should come as no surprise... it IS her best song.
Rockwell Now she ends her shows with Venice Bitch.
@@Evie170 most of the shows, she ends with off to the races
@@Evie170 let's be clear, Venice Beach is so perfect song... it's Lana is her soul
@@Evie170 no i feel like she means that all her shows end with her just leaving the stage but the instrumentals keep going
one of my dream jobs would be a lana impersonator in vegas
if i looked like her lmao
+raina b. Haha stay in community college
+Hilldog Clinton Exactly, I'm not serious btw, but it would be fun.
I feel so inspired to re-think what I'm doing with my life! This comment made my day! Thank you!
a lot of crying drinking and smoking over old men

are u still a fan?
@@eldaa.4879 i think they became an AC after 10 years of listening to Lana. They shouldve evolved at some point along with Lana
her voice has so many sounds and layers, it's so strange, but in a good way.
HE ADMIRES ME THE WAY I ROLL LIKE A ROLLING STONE
Best live of Off the Races.
This comment is 9 years ago...but yeah this is still the best live off to the races she ever did
It surely is!
Absolutely! And this concert was even before the track's original studio release, which I think was December 2011. I guess she mentioned it.
I love the way she say "I'm your scarlet,starlet,singin' in the garden"
Goddamn that was PERFECTION.. Stupid time has to pass and ruin everything. I mourn the loss of this version of Lana and I'm sure she does too. She hit those high notes live, no pitch correction or anything, I'm floored.
She still has amazing vocals now that shes back on tour
@@Ivan-lr8ut Her stage presence has plummeted, though.
her mentality seems so afflicted, I don't even know what emotion she's ever feeling, I feel like she's mad and thrilled at the same time.
sociopathy
That’s the point lol
She was good and all but when the band jammed out at the end.. That shit was awesome
Even though she messes up a few times in the performance, it's my favorite. I really admire Lana, especially her older stuff.
I think she just changes the lyrics with this song.. She's done it in other videos
Jacob Murray She has multiple demos. This may have just been a version that is different from what was released, considering this was sang before BTD came out. I mean, look up what Dark Paradise originally sounded like. lol
She's always playing with the songs, she doesnt want them to sound the same everytime
It’s hard to sing to this song because of how much layering it has.
@@SpaceOutlaw_ you're right, she usually mess up because of that, love the track
look at how young her guitarist. he's still there with lana until now. love these 2 people.
Blake and Byron (the pianist) are still touring with her till this day.
byron and blake have been with her for so long (: so sweet
i love how she said "ok" at the end and walked off with the band still playing
She’s a star 😂
This is the best performance of this song that I could find. I wish she still had this confidence. I hate that people made her insecure.
when she sings the first half of the chorus starting around 2:45 i havent hard lana sing like this with her baby voice in forever omggg
she actually did that voice in 2021? i think in Breaking Up Slowly live with Nikki
@@octaxlugo3540 the baby voice in the first part of the chorus here?
@@ihavecrabs56 yep! look for: "Lana Del Rey and Nikki Lane - Breaking Up Slowly (Live in Texas/April 4)" from the second 1:16 'till the end, she does the babyvoice, a high falsetto like lizzy and the old yodely voice all in that little span! let me know what you think :b

I had shivers all over me when she sang "Be a good baby, do what I want!". hooooootttt!!
She looks so incredibly glamorous here!
This song is so underrated, and bloody hard to sing! She's killing it!
she really killed those notes at the 5:00 mark! Nobody can deny that she can sing.

She’s so authentic then and now, however, here I feel like she’s really in her element and exuding an effortless allure by her niche vocals, elegant dresses and 50’s make up looks, starlet hair.

how can she sing this song? i can't sing this song even with backing vocals, but she sings it perfectly without any backing vocals, queen!!!
I love how she still has the same band
I love watching how she changed in all of the different eras of her career. She's so special and crazy talented in every one of them. She'll always be a living legend for sure
I love how she still calls them records instead of the usual albums c:
this performance belongs in a museum
holy shit she sounds so adorable at 4:33
IShall EatYourBacon ikr, one moment she s so dark and Smokey voice then the next she's as girly as that

There is a clip of this performance in Carmen!!!!!!
Srac OFFICIAL omg you're right!!! cool😄
That was exactly my first thought when I saw this lol
you mean... OF Carmen? Or otherwise I'm not getting you.
kurzackd Carmen the song. From Lana
no the its actually from the "without you" performance
I am straight, but this woman makes my heart races. So beautiful, so vivid.
Are you still straight tho
I lost whatever straight parts I was left with after listening to this women!
HELP ME BRO😭😭
This performance is a hidden gem for sure
I loved when she sang all "whiny" like. It was so unique.
i want to express myself the way she does ugh

I love this. Seven years on, she's still / in some ways even more tapped into her creative flow and the journey has been so beautiful.
Wow this is still going beautiful!
Shes used to be this fucking enchanting
The last high note in the end was.... DAYUUUM DIVAA 5:07
Damned right.
When she opens her throat for her belts and high notes... it's absolutely flawless. @_@
i hope some artist in 60 years or so uses this clip of lana singing in her own music videos that look like lana's lol
The way she left the stage lmaooo the unbothered queen
this look so vintage , i love sin lana and her aesthetic she is so talented
I like how she improvises and changes the lyrics as she sings
the way she was fightinnggggg here god shes everything
I’m obsessed with this video
Lana Del Ray is so humble + stunnin and a good singer :)

I always make my way back to this video. She’s amazing.
Jeez its my fave song of her live, shame that she doesnt sing it with such energy now
I love that in the end of the music she just walks out. Queen Mother.
Most underappreciated artist of the last decade.
this live version sounds fabulous! i like it even more than the studio version!
