The thing about Lana is that she’s a story teller. She’s not always going to give you high belts and fancy vocals but what she will do is make you feel what she’s feeling. She’s always said that she’s a writer first and a singer second. There’s just something really special about her, she’s very awkward, cute and humble which is so rare to see nowadays. She’s not trying to make hits or top charts, she just genuinely loves to write and sing
@@richmaxmchalliwchester1984 yes! Taylor and Lana are both incredible. It’s so frustrating when people try to compare them and criticise them. They’re not even in the same genre so a lot of the comparisons don’t make sense but a collab with the two of them would be so incredible.
@@Em-hz7tg if u cant tell that she battles with mental health alot then u dont know who lana is. her entire catalog is a reflection of her experiences and who she is. stop choosing to be ignorant
Lana is a great vocalist but she just gets nervous. She's getting a bit more comfortable now. Her music is stunning..she's one of my favorite artists of all time.
Because her body is a map, so the hands tracing those roads and streets ( that are her curves ) like a land rover I find it so cute, Lana lyrics are always so good. ❤️ I'm so glad you enjoyed it after that initial disclaimer, and I think you will enjoy the tracks from her album Blue Banisters her vocals are really great on that from the loveliest to the most powerful ... check that out even if not to react to them
She does have a sort of stage fright but she is amazing vocally when it comes to her concert tours. Please do an album reaction to Blue Banisters, to me it's her best album to date.
“Run your hand over me like a Land Rover” basically means like feel me a Land Rover feels the ground/road because she compares her body to a map of LA and her lovers touch to a Toyota/Land Rover.
Lana's voice has evolved a lot, she is not the same as in her beginnings, even her lyrics have improved, now she has a peculiar originality, even she has said that she doesn't even like many lyrics of her past or how much she was nervous on stage. Now she is a strong and self-confident singer. Thank you very much for reacting to Lana, without a doubt together with Taylor are the best songwriters of today, we are waiting for more of your reactions to Lana del rey
she's the queen of emotion. she's always so nervous and emotional at the beginnings even in concert. she's very sensitive person., but for me she's the best of this generation.
I kinda like that she kept those pitchy moments in the studio version. She (and people working with her) obviously knew about them and decided to keep it that way intentionally. She’s even said about this song specifically that she likes the vocals there. 🙂 This might be a controversial decision, but the song sounds more human and vulnerable. Also, it rejects the expectations of having to be perfect. It’s like she’s telling her haters: “I don’t give a damn and I can sing off tune on my album if I want to. What are you gonna do?”
Yeah it seems like she has been nervous since her SNL performance a decade ago. But i love that she seems to be a little more comfortable now, and she doesnt feel the need to being in a character like she used to. Much more natural and we can feel her shining through!
Yes, she's suffering from anxiety but here she rather creates image of her that's shows her vulnerability and gentleness than she's being stressed out; in every music video, every performance etc. she shows us different side of her, and the way she's acting here suits to the song; btw i'm really glad you've finally reacted to something from her and you enjoyed it! Hope to see your reactions on more singles from the album, or even the whole album :)
agree with you, it seems like this time it was on purpose, as a part of performance Also I think she recorded the vocals and the video separately - so she had no reason to be stressed, she could re-record it if something went wrong.
@@Em-hz7tg dude ive seen you in multiple comments saying that, shes always been open about her anxiety and stage fright since before she was even famous- You dont have the right to go around saying people are faking their mental health especially when theres years of proof that say otherwise. Do some research, Mind your business, and be nice to people bro theres no reason to be a dick to someone you dont even know.
Lana is a big fan of Jazz, and I would say that her vocal style is mostly warm, laid back and soft, and a bit sexy haha. I would also say that her vocal is kind of versatile. It shows in some of her songs such as Off to the Races, Dealer (her part is at the chorus) and Cola. I don't know much about singing haha. It's just my little opinion. ☺️
Love this Georgina! I feel like you’ve ignored Lana for a while now and so glad to see you reviewing her, so glad you’ve enjoyed it! Please do more! A whole Blue Bannisters review would be amazing!
Lana Del Rey is really well known to have severe stage fright and anxiety over performing so to answer your question, yes she does. Also can you react to her performing Let Me Love You Like A Woman on Jimmy Fallon?
@@mazzymoon2612 true, however: Taylor said that Lana was one of the most influential artist in pop music over the last decade, and inspired her at some point of her career; Lorde’s Royals / Pure Heroin was supposed to provide with a counter model to Lana’s Born to Die; Billie said that Lana was like a mother to her and artists of her generation. All in all, Taylor, Lorde, and Billie absolutely do not owe their career to Lana, they are talented artists by themselves; but Lana did influence them to some extent. Born to die was a cultural reset, and critics are finally acknowledging it after a whole decade (NFR! was a watershed moment in this process).
Agreed, she did so much to pave the way for this soft, confessional, and "boring" (in a good way) singing in mainstream pop. Her and others, like Cat Power or Agnes Obel. The artists you mention are all deserving in their own right but there wouldn't be so much space for them on the market if Lana hadn't helped create it.
Thank you for this reaction, I’m glad you gave another try to Lana’s music because I think she really is a talented artist, even if her genre is not so popular on your channel. Thanks for opening up your content 😉
A fun fact is that in 2011/2012 Lana appeared for the first time on a live program and suffered a panic crisis as the media had been attacking her for weeks. That's why Lana never performed live again. It was not until the end of last year / beginning of this year that Lana returned to do a presentation on tv after almost 9 years, of course they are pre-recorded presentations because she still has anxiety singing live. But as a fan of hers, I am so proud that she is overcoming her fears little by little. Great video!! Greetings from Venezuela!
This was a particularly lovely reaction, my dear. I just can't seem to get enough of your channel and I absolutely adore you! Xx Steven PS I appreciate how candid you truly are and SO honest. 💙🙏
Giving me Joni Mitchell vibes. It was lovely and a bit more of an authentic aesthetic than the Priscilla Presley - Born to Die era (loved her back then too). She seems like she’s really being herself here which is beautiful to watch 💙🍂
Her style is what she’s feeling. I think relaxed, chill, running from her anxiety and escaping her inner demons or the war in her mind. Maybe that’s why I relate to her so much. Because I never felt like a singer but I’ve always known myself to be a writer. A communicator, someone who is also shy and anxious.
Ok so i just love Lana Del Reys Music Its like she's giving us a glimpse into her life and how she feels which is rare and brave for a song writer to do ! When i listen to Lana song i always listen to the story behind it..My partner calls her Lana Del (depressed) and it infuriates me im like "Lanas music is so relatable and beutiful... I just love her music and Authenticity Great reaction post HVC XX
The thing about rolling the hands like a land rover stands for her metaphor "my body is a map of LA... my hips every high and byway..." She's comparing her body as the map of LA the whole time. And about the anxiety, she is frighten of stage performances
To me Lana Del Rey is a poet who is singing her poems aloud. She might sound lazy to some, but this is the first song that she’s done that made me think “wow, she can really sing”. The way she sings is what makes her so compelling.
Lana is a pretty good singer, she grew a lot. Most of the new album was recorded in one take, which I guess explains they left the pitchy moments on purpose for some reason.
This song is about her body being a literal map of LA, and she is saying to this person to lay their hand over her like they're a Land Rover cause her body is the road (the map, every high and byway) and the person is the car (Land Rover). It's a nice metaphore.
They kept destroying her in her entire career, pounding her with criticism and more criticism, it really makes someone really self-conscious. So the fact she is still persevering in her career is an attestation of her will and power to continue doing what she does. And as fans, because of these criticisms, we lost her. She has an empathic soul, and each time the world closes on her, she retreats into her shell, locks her social media and goes MIA. We need more kindness toward artists, man.
She's getting more comfortable on the stage but she passed a really difficult time with the media and public in general. Her songwriting is improving and she's enjoying herself. I personally love Lana.
Her musical style has been described as “Hollywood sadcore”. It’s very melancholic but it’s a stylistic choice rather than a reflection of her vocal ability. I actually rather enjoy it
I guess you have to be from California to understand her lyrics lol but the Land Rover (a popular suv in LA) are human hands tracing her body and curves like a Land Rover does on the Pacific Coast Highway in Los Angeles 🥰🥰🥰
I think she seemed to appear a bit nervous bc she once got a bit of backlash from doing her first live TV performance so I guess she's been kind of shy to perform on TV from then on, but her live performances are always really fantastic!
Lana has bad stage fright but she is a good vocalist so it makes sense that they did a prerecorded live version. Love her lots but there is a big difference between her prerecorded and live work.
Hey, do you have any tips to switch between chest voice and head voice like her? I don't have the best range so I am trying to learn head voice but I tend to not hit notes correctly ( and when I do, I tend to sing it overly Loud)
I would love it if you could do more reactions on Lana Del Rey, especially the Norman F Rockwell album. She is amazing, her lyrics are the best thing, it’s real poetry and she got better during the years with her vocals and everything. And yes she is singing her true feelings and that’s something that we should admire, she always tells us a story. So do a reaction on NFR because that is a real masterpiece! ❤️
The thing about Lana is that she’s a story teller. She’s not always going to give you high belts and fancy vocals but what she will do is make you feel what she’s feeling.

yes this is what i love about Taylor and Lana, both are storytellers first and singers second. I hope they'll collab in future
Spot on. I adore LDY.
@@richmaxmchalliwchester1984 that would be epic

1000000% she has shown what she’s capable of, making top records, becoming woman of decade, and so on! She is now just chillin
She’s been battling anxiety for years now. But she’s strong and getting over it and presenting us with amazing moments like this.
It’s not true, stop spreading lies
@@Em-hz7tg she has really bad stage fright and anxiety, or are you a bot

Her singing style is called the ‘Lana del Rey’
Totally!

Best comment ever!! ❤
Yesss
It’s actually called blue eyed jazz
Lana is a great vocalist but she just gets nervous. She's getting a bit more comfortable now. Her music is stunning..she's one of my favorite artists of all time.

Blue Bannisters really is a stunning piece of work. It doesn't quite top Norman Fucking Rockwell or Ultraviolent for me, but it is beautiful.
“Run your hand over me like a Land Rover” basically means like feel me a Land Rover feels the ground/road because she compares her body to a map of LA and her lovers touch to a Toyota/Land Rover.
this song is so magical

Lana is fantastic in telling HER story, with all all flaws and anxieties. I love listening to real genuine artists like her. Beautiful!
Yeah it seems like she has been nervous since her SNL performance a decade ago. But i love that she seems to be a little more comfortable now, and she doesnt feel the need to being in a character like she used to. Much more natural and we can feel her shining through!
I always fall in love with the way she sings "I'm a lost girl finding my way to ya" 🥺🖤

She is not suffering w anxiety
@@Em-hz7tg so she's just very bad at performing and has no stage presence. Anxiety sounds better for marketing
@@Em-hz7tg she do. or at least she did.

you're the best vocal coach!!! so gentle
You may find a better vocalist but you can't find a better musician and artist, and I'll wait.
Have you never listened to Florence + The Machine ?
Omgggg I love lana! Love u both! ♥️
thanks for your support. X
Love this Georgina! I feel like you’ve ignored Lana for a while now and so glad to see you reviewing her, so glad you’ve enjoyed it! Please do more! A whole Blue Bannisters review would be amazing!
Those little smiles you give when you like something. I love those. 😍
Also, Lana is a Queen.
She has a very operatic voice and is a great underrated vocalist
This song is so so beautiful. It breaks me everytime.
The way Lana sings feels so artistic to me.. like.. if an abstract painting had sound, it would sound like Lana Del Rey haha.
Lana Del Rey is really well known to have severe stage fright and anxiety over performing so to answer your question, yes she does. Also can you react to her performing Let Me Love You Like A Woman on Jimmy Fallon?
Yayy Lana appreciation
Lana is love. Taylor,.Billie and Lorde's career are because of Lana Del Rey. She's a legend
I love Lana but no that’s not it they all have their own unique things to them
@@mazzymoon2612 true, however:

Sounded like jewel !

Glad you like it!
Lana said she loves the vocals on Arcadia, probably as she appreciates the raw and unpolished, but I understand if you didn’t like it
I've been a Lana del Rey fan since 2014. Thanks for this reaction. FINALLY.
Arcadia is probably one of my favourites from the album.
I will love you till the end of time lana🥺❤

Lana is for me a kind of new Madonna in her own way. She is definitely the sign of our times!
This song is SO BEAUTIFUL ❤️❤️❤️
this song makes me so emotional.
Absolutely beautiful dahling GivethanXo so much for your amazing energy 😭🙏🎵🎤💪💯🎼💖🎶
Thank you Georgina for giving us only sincere reactions
Love you queen!!!!

I'm so glad you liked it. ❤️
You were so right Georgina I love u so much
I laugh so hard when she sing Land Rover and you did that face!
On her new album her vocals are beautiful, specifically on Sweet Carolina I’d defiantly recommend you listen to it to hear a wider range of vocals
The last few seconds of the video 🙈 How cute was that 🤩
Lana is a pretty good singer, she grew a lot. Most of the new album was recorded in one take, which I guess explains they left the pitchy moments on purpose for some reason.
The singing style I'd call "blaze"
Queen mother 🌹
I wanna have operatic voice like her!! And I won't give up!! :') 😭😭

omg❤️🔥😍
Amazing from Chloe from Wirral x
Diana Ross came out with two new singles called “All Is Well” & “I Stil Believe” hope you react to them ❤️
She definitely suffers from anxiety. Lanas voice is like a slow burn, so beautiful but she nails every era she makes a point to sing like.
3:10 I call it cursive singing
❤️
sometimes lana's songs just work on the album - when you're listening all together.
Yes! Looks great!
Besides that she is struggling with anxiety I also thinks she is very sensitive while performing and she brings all her emotion into the songs
She looks different because she's put on weight. That's all. She still looks beautiful.
Her musical style has been described as “Hollywood sadcore”. It’s very melancholic but it’s a stylistic choice rather than a reflection of her vocal ability. I actually rather enjoy it
I guess you have to be from California to understand her lyrics lol but the Land Rover (a popular suv in LA) are human hands tracing her body and curves like a Land Rover does on the Pacific Coast Highway in Los Angeles 🥰🥰🥰

AHHHHH
“Americle” “america” “a miracle” put it together
idk what it is, but I think the transposition moving it up a tone (to avoid copyright strikes) makes the song much sweeter for some reason.
shes looks different because shes almost 40 😭 she wont look like shes in her 20s forever
Yeah I don't understand her, People age.
I would say the "lazy" style she uses is akin to 'torch singing' or even crooning
In my mind 13 beaches has also too the nonchalant way of singing but i like it
Lana has bad stage fright but she is a good vocalist so it makes sense that they did a prerecorded live version. Love her lots but there is a big difference between her prerecorded and live work.
I think this is a pitched version of the live video
I lol'd when you said "...lazy, I can't be bothered to sing style..."
Amazing from chloe from wirral xx
Her voice is beautiful..such an fabulous tone....dreamy
Hey, do you have any tips to switch between chest voice and head voice like her?
I don't have the best range so I am trying to learn head voice but I tend to not hit notes correctly ( and when I do, I tend to sing it overly Loud)
I'm sorry, but Lana is not music, it's an emotion ❤️
Everyone with the "nervous," "anxiety," "stage fright" comments to always excuse her voice.
I mean it's true
It's tricky, I didn't know that either util someone corrected me but it's pronounced Col-bear. :)
I would love it if you could do more reactions on Lana Del Rey, especially the Norman F Rockwell album. She is amazing, her lyrics are the best thing, it’s real poetry and she got better during the years with her vocals and everything. And yes she is singing her true feelings and that’s something that we should admire, she always tells us a story. So do a reaction on NFR because that is a real masterpiece! ❤️
The land rover line is a parallel to the toyota line. It's just another car. Maybe they don't have a lot of them (land rovers) in the u.k.
I'd stay her style is nonchalant
If you want to react to a song, I recommend the artist Aesthetic Perfection with the song Gods & Gold
