I've been seeing her name a lot lately so I checked out one of her songs. She did remind me of Nicole Atkins. I might have to see if there's more to her.

Lana said she's filming a video for "Blue Jeans" "in a couple of months," so there's a strong chance it's the 2nd 3rd single, which I'm so excited about. I don't think "Born to Die" will do much on the charts but it's definitely created a lot of buzz with the video and whatnot but I have a feeling "Blue Jeans" is going to smash in 2012. Here's the video where she confirmed the filming (3:39): www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lB5khivbWs&feature=related

Does anyone know for sure? Oh and I meant to say 3rd official single for Blue jeans, not 2nd. Sorry!

The two tigers in her video caught my attention. If she was someone like Beyonce I would understand how she was able to pay for two trained animals to be in her video. But where does some no-name skank get the money for the tigers? Millionaire daddy.
I thought she was an authentic indie bitch when "Video Games" came but then I learned the truth.

She has a massive "stanbase" at ATRL, so I checked her out and it didn't click with me. But I wish her the absolute best in 2012, I do encourage and admire variety.

This What Makes Us Girls has amazing production. I'm a straight male, and I love the production of this song. I think it can be a huge song in 2012.

YAYO could be a bonus track.

I'm confused by the "controversy"....first of all, is the only actual surgical difference her lips? I think she's stunning. I almost think her hair color now looks natural and the blonde she had before looked bleached or something.
Also, I don't get why people are saying how its just a team of people kind of manufacturing her and its not all her.....I could understand people saying things like that about someone in Pop. But Lana isn't making pop music, its very indie sounding and its actually surprising that she's so popular.

Also, who produces her stuff? I noticed in Blue Jeans and in Born to Die it sounds like its a looped sample or something, and in both songs you hear a guy yelling in the loop.

There is nothing indie about her - she has a major push.

She's as indie as Foster the People- which is why she may end up having a hit single on pop.

She definitely has a better tone on record than live......but that's fine with me cause she still has a unique sound.
It's cool that labeling her is creating some type of controversy, because it really is kinda hard to figure her out. The fact that she went from pop to this is very intriguing.
But we've also come to learn that image doesn't need to compliment your music to be successful. (R.I.P. Amy Winehouse)

I'm looking forward to her as the SNL musical guest next weekend ! Will this be her big break like Adele ? I think it could be! She's gotten so popular through the internet in the US but that's about it....there's tons of people who don't know who she is. So this is the perfect way to introduce her. It is kind of funny how she's American, yet a lot more famous in the UK.

I wasn't too keen on Video Games, but Blue Jeans and Born To Die have me really interested in her full length.
I'm not sure about how big she'll be with her kind of material, but she'll do something.
