And it is strange to me that she/they stick with Garvais As if he is the only one capable to do a (good) remix!

Off to the Races is my favorite, but Dark Paradise is my second favorite on BTD. I'd love one of those.

Plus, I hope this song is a shoo-in for the Academy Award nomination and probable win! I thought she said she had already written the song and then gave it up for the soundtrack? If so, it wouldn't be eligible for the Oscars (unless they changed their rules), which mandates that all original songs be written specifically for the movie. That's why "Come What May" from Moulin Rouge wasn't eligible (originally written for Romeo & Juliet). It was confirmed quite sometime ago from one of her fan sites or Baz Luhrmann himself? that the song IS eligible for the Oscars. Lana never said she wrote the song for Paradise. The working title "Will You Still Love Me" leaked along with a couple of Paradise tracks and fans assumed that it was for the album.

Anyway I love this remix on first listen. SS remix was horrid on first listen, but it grew on me.

I can't stop stress enough how sad this treatment of Lana is, she's got such an amazing and interesting sound, she released a fabulous album (Born to Die) and EP (Paradise) and one of the best movie themes (Young and Beautiful) and yet radio will only touch her with these lame cheap remixes that literary slaughter the beauty of her songs and makes them faceless. I think her team should atleast give her real sound a new shot after the random success of the SS remix, but no they'll slaughter yet another song.

reformist I am with you. Young and Beautiful is just that. It deserves to be played as isβ¦but I'd rather it be a hit and lead people to the superior original version than nothing at all.

For the reason unknown well, they chose SS Cedric remix because it reached #1 on beat port last year and got Airplay on its own. Plus original SS smashed in Germany before it got released in the US, so they went a head a release the remix to radio. And now since the Cedric remix of SS is HUGE. It's logical to follow up to an existing remix. Y&B remix is not new. It's not like they saw the success of SS and they called Cedric to do another remix. Y&B got remixed months ago before SS was released. Tbh, I don't care if they release ten more remixes. As long as we have the original, it's fine to me. It's a win win. Us fans still get to enjoy original music from Lana and the remixes help broaden her audience.

I hear alot of people saying that atleast the remixes will make people aware of her, well although true I don't necessarily think it's for the better, if anything these remixes cheapens her image and a majority who won't really check out her actual material, they'll think of her material as these remixes. Also, with the success of SS remix, they should atleast give her actual sound a new push... I mean we have Lorde having success with a weaker version of Lana mid-tempo tracks, so it's not impossible and the remix made its purpose and got her name out in the mainstream, no need to make another similar attempt now when she finally has some good-will.

Ouch! LMAO! I actually see them as different but I can see why people compare them. They have some alternative flair to them on some level. My favorite thing about Lorde is her lyrics and the music. My favorite thing about Lana is her voice. They both have a place.

They will give her "actual sound" a new push on the new album. BTD era is two years old.
The only reason why the this is getting re release is because of the Oscars and the surprising success of SS remix.

Billboard reported that Interscope will be (re-)releasing this during awards season (Winter) . Cedric Gervais was asked to remix both this and "Summertime Sadness". Oh wow. Maybe they should just do a Lana Del Rey vs Cedric Gervais remix album then.

The only reason why the this is getting re release is because of the Oscars and the surprising success of SS remix. Well, the song was doing fine on sales and on airplay before the studio decided to push SS. I understand a remix, specially for a summertime release, but in my opinion release another remix instead of her real sound it's totally disrespectful for her, and frankly, totally useless, because people i highly doubt that people who like her remixes really want to buy an album with her real songs. The remix opened her the doors of the radio, but now it's time to make her real sound reach the charts. Right now there are a good bunch of songs (Cooler Weather or Radioactive for example) that are far from being the usual mainstream songs. People liked Young and beaufiful when it was released (the song it's in its 20th week on billboard without being played on radio) and if it gets an golden globe/oscar nomination it's the original song and not the remix the one being nominated/awarded. It's a perfect song for the fall. At least they need to give it a try, if it not work, then send the remix

These people would never check someone like Lana in the first place, so by having these remixes it helps widen her audience. Anyway, the sales are combined I see no loss. The remix would add sales to the original. Besides many artists remix their songs why is it a problem with Lana?

I got into the music of Sarah McLachlan and Tori Amos after I heard the Dance/Club remixes of some of their songs. I had been familiar with both and did like a few songs, but it was just those few songs. The remixes helped me to really get into their vocal styles and then I checked out their un-remixed stuff and now I am a big fan of their work.

I agree with this, found her months ago courtesy of Pulse. Downloaded her BTD album and the rest is history, got Paradise as well. Her voice and tone is what sets her apart. I truly believe that now that she has some success that her label ought to give her originals a try. People are missing so much but if this new exposure have folks checking her out then thats a start. But goodness, I can just hear songs like BTD, National Anthem and OTTR on the radio even if they send it to HAC/AC first. She deserves better then a remix but for now beggars cant be choosers.

But all in all Young & Beautiful remix is better than one for Summertime Sadness It is closer to the original If you can say that for a remix of a ballad

Born To Die tracks (in their orginal form: Nation Anthem Demo, Dark Paradise Demo, Lucky Ones Demo, Summertime Sadness Demo, This What Makes Us Girls Demo, etc) are all uptempos and are VERY radio friendly.
I don't know who idea was it to make these songs to ballads and less radio friendly.
But then again, if Born To Die were kept in its original form it would have not sold as much. Lana would become a single artist with multiple radio smashes, but abysmal album sales lol
And we don't want that, do we?

I loved the BTD demos too but there's no denying that their Interscope versions are what made Lana unique with her signature cinema-meets-hip-hop sound.

I can understand why they went with the remix. While the original is good as is, a lot of second singles that are slow don't seem to take off normally especially for non-established artists. They seem to know what they're doing. Maybe the third time around they'll go with an original song of hers.

I feel like Lana's tough time seeing success can basically be attributed to being on a radio blacklist. Pop has refused to play any of her singles just because of one bad performance. The original SS is in the top 30 only because the remix is being played on the radio. People obviously like her music.
