the whole marilyn monroe thing at the beginning represents her as the other woman (reference to the ride music video monologue - i was born to be the other woman) in contrast to jackie kennedy being part of "the perfect family". Her choosing to portray this song through those 2 women in very different circumstances show she used to think she would never find true love, neither as the woman, neither as the other woman
Her whole discography shows her evolution from the carmen lolita trust no one persona to her realizing she was wrong with the way she acted, that she was used by her lovers and finding happiness. All of her music was made by herself for herself
paradise and born to die is grouped together but they are separate projects, paradise is considered an ep it came out a year later and came alongside a 30 min short film
Fun fact: years ago she said she was considering removing her "paradise" and "trust no one" tattoos to make herself less recognizable in public lol. I don't know if she actually did it, but sometimes she covers it up with makeup
Lana plays the role of Marilyn Monroe and Jackie Kennedy and brings the lavish lifestyle of the 50s and give it a modern twist.JFK as president didn’t due much before his death he had a failed invasion in Cuba. And the man on the moon mission.
