The instrumental version was made by Zorn: / @zornmusica I just mixed the vocals and fixed the ending. If you want others studio versions of LA to the Moon, check Plastic Guy channel: • Playlist
༒ hahaha it’s a line from mean girls (a movie) Regina’s mom says in front of Regina’a friends “I’m not a regular mom, I’m a cool mom” (Which this line was the one Chimera Christ was quoting) and then Regina goes all “please stop talking” so I was like... you know... following the scene
My depression is gone. My skin is clear. My grades are perfect. My relationship with my friends and family is at its best. My crush asked me out. And my dog came back from the dead. All thanks to this song.
In my opinion, Ultraviolence doesn’t really qualify as a rock record. At least not the rock sound I’m looking for from Lana. I don’t even really think this version of Off To The Races belongs on Ultraviolence.... but it would be an amazing addition to an album with this sound. Like if Lana covered Magic Man by heart Or made songs like that..... the world better watch the fuck out....
@@blujay8946 Actually it does. Maybe not in the genre but Ultraviolence has a lot of guitar work going on there. Not every rock song has to be uplifting.
This song gets closer to rock than to alternative, that's why I love this version of OTTR... I'll give my soul in a heartbeat for Lana to release another rock album or at least more rock-inspired singles.
I think the original OTTR instrumental is genius. Totally unique and layered but I'd always wished these electric guitars were incorporated at the end.
Jock Marais ASMR WAIT JK just got to the ending of the song HOLY COW ITS SO GOOD all the clashing and guitars is so awesome 🥺😍 the only thing it’s missing is Lana’s “oooo” part in the back and then the final “you are my one true love.”
@@nzuzanna It's an old interview, I don't remember if it was in magazine or a filmed interview but this is what she had to say - in a 2012 interview, Del Rey described "Off to the Races" as a song where you could tell by the energy that she was right in the middle of a relationship where times were happy but also chaotic. She continued about the relationship by saying: "We were traveling between Los Angeles and Las Vegas, he was gambling, I was just swimming, and yeah I mean, I used to indulge in a lot drugs and dark poetry, and pop culture, and amazing music, but I've quieted down a lot but I just reminisce about it. I live a really simple life today". That describes what "Off to the Races" was written about.
karl bear Yeeah.I saw her vanishing into thin air as the last chords played like “you are my one true love”.I was so astonished that night by her presences.She even glanced at me I was at the second row.Cannot describe how my body paralyzed when she came down.All I could dream of was a Convertible my bad boy me in a petite dress 👗 in a place where you could only see the uncountable stars 🌟 and the crescent moon.Still searching for that magical place on the road.
I put this song on and all of a sudden I had on ripped jean shorts and was smoking a cigarette at the gas station while my sugar daddy bought me a Pepsi cola.
"Off To The Races" My old man is a bad man But I can't deny the way he holds my hand And he grabs me, he has me by my heart He doesn't mind I have a Las Vegas past He doesn't mind I have a LA crass Way about me He loves me With every beat of his cocaine heart Swimming pool glimmering darling White bikini off with my red nail polish Watch me in the swimming pool Bright blue ripples, You sittin' sippin' on your Black Cristal Light of my life, fire of my loins Be a good baby, do what I want Light of my life, fire of my loins Give me them gold coins, give me them coins And I'm off to the races, Cases of Bacardi chasers Chasin' me all over town 'Cause he knows I'm wasted, Facin' time again at Rikers Island And I won't get out Because I'm crazy, baby, I need you to come here and save me I'm your little scarlet, starlet, Singin' in the garden Kiss me on my open mouth Ready for you My old man is a tough man But he's got a soul as sweet as blood red jam And he shows me, He knows me Every inch of my tar-black soul He doesn't mind I have a flat broke-down life In fact he says he thinks it's what he might like About me, Admires me, The way I roll like a rolling stone Likes to watch me in the glass room, bathroom, Chateau Marmont Slippin' on my red dress, puttin' on my make-up Glass room, perfume, cognac, lilac Fumes, says it feels like heaven to him Light of his life, fire of his loins Keep me forever, tell me you own me Light of your life, fire of your loins Tell me you own me, give me them coins And I'm off to the races, Cases of Bacardi chasers Chasin' me all over town 'Cause he knows I'm wasted, Facin' time again at Rikers Island And I won't get out Because I'm crazy, baby, I need you to come here and save me I'm your little scarlet, starlet, Singin' in the garden Kiss me on my open mouth Yo I'm off to the races, laces Leather on my waist is Tight and I am fallin' down I can see your face is shameless, Cipriani's basement Love you but I'm going down God I'm so crazy, baby, I'm sorry that I'm misbehaving I'm your little harlot, starlet, Queen of Coney Island Raising hell all over town Sorry 'bout it My old man is a thief and I'm gonna stay and pray with him 'til the end But I trust in the decision of the Lord to watch over us Take him when he may, if he may I'm not afraid to say That I'd die without him Who else is gonna put up with me this way? I need you, I breathe you, I never leave you They would rue the day I was alone without you You're lyin' with your gold chain on, Cigar hangin' from your lips I said "Hon', You never looked so beautiful as you do now, my man." And we're off to the races, places Ready, set, the gate is Down and now we're goin' in To Las Vegas chaos, Casino Oasis, Honey, it is time to spin Boy you're so crazy, baby, I love you forever not maybe You are my one true love, You are my one true love You are my one true love
I like to think of her saying "You are my one true love" is for her fans as she dissapears into the night and her words linger with the loud music and the beautiful violins fading at the end. 💙
I love listening to it to this day! thanks to this song, everything in my life got better, I recovered from a serious illness, found a prestigious job with excellent earnings, I got married and my grandmother was born
