Lana Del Rey - Born to Die: The Paradise Edition (2012)

Reason for Listening:
I searched Spotify for Born to Die and started listening to this album. I soon learned this album was a reissue of Born to Die with more tracks (the additional tracks were separately released as an EP titled Paradise.
There are some arguments in favor of simply combining this post with the post for Born to Die. However, my main reason for keeping it separate is that it can be viewed as a combination of two separate albums, Born to Die and Paradise, and having those two albums reference this post or vice versa is cleaner. As an example of messy, see my post for Hybrid Theory. In that post, I listened to the 20th Anniversary Edition and one of the discs is simply Reanimation.

First listen. iTunes.*
~Disc 1~ See Born to Die. --20201220--
~Disc 2~ See Paradise.
*Technically speaking, I started by listening to the release on Spotify titled "Born To Die - The Paradise Edition". But the content on disc 1 is exactly the same as the release titled "Born To Die - Paradise Edition (Special Version)". When listening to disc 2, I switched to the latter because it had an extra track, "Burning Desire". Note that this extra track is not found for me on the Spotify release of the Paradise album. In any case, the latter is equivalent to the track listing on Wikipedia for the iTunes edition.

After publishing this post, I decided to temporarily change the post year to 1980 so that it was out of the way.
