    So it was my birthday on Friday and I'd asked for Lana's album - although I had listened to it on grooveshark - but so happy to say I now own it! Loving Dark Paradise a lot :) I like
    national anthem too but not about it as a single, although the chorus is a cracker!

    Red, white, blue's in the skies,
    Summer's in the air and baby,
    Heaven's in your eyes.
    I'm your National Anthem.

    Loves it.

    Carmen has its own page on WIKI
    According to the page, the song is inspired by the not so great lifestyes of Paris Hilton and Lindsey Lohan

    Carmen is apparently an alto ego of Lana.

    What's that bit at the bottom about the Carmen music video? I don't recall that :confused:

    Does that mean Carmen will be a single or is it for promo sake?

    oh I see, I really hope she does do what Beyonce has done with 4 and make a video for every song on the album

    Yeah I think both Gaga and Madonna should do it next era.

    This Is What Makes Us Girls would indeed make an interesting video, though in saying that they all would because of the songs' different subjects and anyway that are about love/romance, it isn't stereotypical

    That's really great! Though it does seem and I think we all knew it, Born to Die hasn't really outdone Video Games, that will be the song for her to beat in the future

    Has to be, really, as it's released as a single in the US on 8th April. Watch her go and sing Video Games again, lol. Massive chance for her to redeem herself on major US TV promo. Pressure is on. :eek:

    American Idol will be massive for Lana! :-O She will SLAY it :cool:
    I wonder what/how she will perform...i reckon seeing Blue Jeans is the next intended release it may be that :) Or maybe it will be a sneaky new performance out there! :-O

    Whatever happens...damn that amount of exposure will be fantastic :)
