Paradise [VINYL]

Product Information

Cola" begins with the lines "My pussy tastes like Pepsi-Cola / My eyes are wide like cherry pies", which PopMatters ' Enio Chiola felt solidified the recurring concept of "a girl trying to find her father in her elder lovers" that unifies the additional tracks. In July, Del Rey expressed her intentions release an expanded version of Born to Die subtitled The Paradise Edition, which was initially expected to contain seven newly recorded tracks to supplement the original record.

info/album/view/90708 The audio level issues is not a deal breaker for me because I digitize my records and mostly listen to them from my PC, which allows me to correct the audio levels in the process, but I can understand people who listen to the record directly finding this annoying. I have completed the set with Born to Die: Special Edition in vinyl (containing the three extra tracks in gatefold double vinyl) and it sure does look stunning.According to Williott, the eighth and final track " Bel Air" is a "melancholy waltz" that notably employs a "forest nymph chant" during its refrain. As someone humorously pointed out below, it sounds like Body Electric was mastered after the kids went to bed, and indeed, the RMS sound volume plummets by something like 5db from Cola to Body Electric.

I just received mine and it does not contain Born to Die, only Paradise and a slipcase for the original LP. Released ten months after the original, The Paradise Edition features eight newly recorded tracks, which were simultaneously made available on the standalone extended play Paradise (2012).

The follow-up track " American" heavily integrates Americana references in its lyrics, and employs minimalist piano and string instrumentation that Sian Watson from Associated Press felt placed the "smoky, effortless vocals" at the forefront of the song. Plus, which isn't really noted, the slipcase itself has a cardboard insert, which makes the overall package feel like a double album. Born To Die" follows Lana's first single "Video Games" which began its life online in July accompanied by a video created by Lana.
