Product Information

John Bush of AllMusic commented that the EP kept the glacial string arrangements and slow drums that characterized the cinematic atmosphere of Born to Die, while improving in terms of vocals. NME said that the most significant lyric in "Ride" read, "I'm tired of feeling like I'm fucking crazy". She has described herself as a "gangsta Nancy Sinatra" and cites Britney Spears, Thomas Newman and Bruce Springsteen as her musical influences. To be clear, you do not get both discs from the CD version of the special edition - there is no material from the original 'Born to Die' album here, just the material from the bonus/second disc 'Paradise', which I actually much prefer to the main album.

Ride" received widely positive reviews, with the only criticism focused on the unrealistic cover art and coy song title.

After numerous projects, including her self-titled debut studio album, Del Rey's breakthrough came in 2011 with the viral success of her single "Video Games"; she subsequently signed a recording contract with Polydor and Interscope.

Del Rey portrays a prostitute in the video, [18] which the NME described as "not exactly empowering," and said might be seen as "anti-feminist". All of these tracks have a retro feel to them and sometimes like american for instance focus heavily on american symbolism and ideals so if your looking for something different from Born to die then your looking in the wrong place sadly.

I didn't think it was possible to create a deeper and darker album than born to die, however this album proved me wrong.She is the recipient of various accolades, including two Brit Awards, two MTV Europe Music Awards, and a Satellite Award, in addition to nominations for six Grammy Awards and a Golden Globe Award.
