Lana Del Rey

[Dani 0]

I noticed a lot of people like 'Girls', so in that sense, it's a good choice.

Omg, sometimes i wish i could erase everything i heard from her, so when i got the album, i could hear it ALL first time in whole hit. Imagine hearing it all at once omg!!!!! dies.

Yeah me too. It's sad that I listened to a lot of stuff. But not everything so.. I'm fine. But still excited.

Here is a Bing translation of the Les Inrock interview she did.....

Since his ghostly appearance on the European scenes, much has been said of the lips of Lana Del Rey. Too opulent for beings true, they would be, as their owner, the creation of a mad scientist. Damage that you care both of these lips, so little which flows, fluid and toxic: the song of a siren, that it would be wrong not to follow blindly into the abyss of delights, be plugged.

Persistent legends also stick to Lana Del Rey, born Elizabeth "Lizzy" Grant: it would be papa-Tycoon (false) daughter, would, in his youth, was the docile filly of a manufacturer of pop-stars interchangeable, malleable enough to have released a first album of syrupy pop to teaser neckline.

You hear but nothing this flashy vulgarity on the songs of this album drag on the net, prototypes of the vapour pop that today is his glory. Woman without roots, buffeted by storm with an unprecedented reputation, the American has no marketed only two songs in 2011, the impressive Video Games and Blue Jeans, she is already adulated or hated with unusual passion. She is the face pop of the time, and the hipsters have quickly sanctioned him for two crimes committed against the morality of their dogma: have a past, have a future. But the general public, who bought these two titles, hundreds of thousands to form of pots and pans that could potentially drag Lana Del Rey. Every artist is entitled to a youth and his clumsiness. It is the pop-music: just as it is, not fatally as it was born.

For those who still doubt the senseless veracity of its song, has recently been Lana Del Rey in acoustic concert in London. Vision lynchienne of a piano-bar in Vegas, she gave a concert at the breathtaking, who made the pass in the wink of long eyelashes of a funeral pop to Mazzy Star in a torch-song worthy of Shirley Bassey. A master voice, authoritarian, which contrasts with this body too long malaise, of itself, these coiled tubing fingers which she doesn't know what to do, and that she entortille in her skirt or the sons of the micro. She invented it a sort of lounge-music spectral, Gothic accents, fiercely film.

Of it, his young manager Ed said: "Everywhere she goes, some guys try to touch, as if it was not réelle…" The first time that it had met Lana Del Rey, it was actually struck, even, angered by its unreality: meeting a third type, a virtual woman, perhaps a hologram. It was moving in a wildfire, the undulating way of Lisa Marie Smith in March Attacks. But it did not need to touch Lana Del Rey - especially in a Sofitel suite, there are now case - law to measure how it was flesh and blood (bad), embodying miraculously eccentricity, beauty and the mystery of his songs. So far, the singer had done nothing really to explain his past and his redemption, fleeing the interviews or accepting, dodging questions. Where the rarity of this maintenance, the longest and most personal that it was never granted.

What is your earliest memory of singing?

Lana Del Rey - I see next to my grandmother, we sing Donnie Brasco, and for the first time I feel pleasure in singing. Also sang in the Church, school, well-appointed But it is something that I do not work. I have no discipline, no technique, I did never take any lesson. I like to just play with my voice, the more acute in the most serious. When I hear me sing, the authority of my voice me out. It appears naive to say it, but I love my songs, I am moved to the stirred When I found myself in the only studio to the micro, I am so released, capable of everything… I feel more than elsewhere in security in these small boxes are my songs. In life, I am not good at much: my only talent is singing. In a song, I know exactly express what I feel, even more than in the conversation. It is a true relief of not having to tell, elaborate.

You how explain you to your producers sound, unique, that you want for your songs?

I asked for example that the strings sound as the meeting of American Beauty and Bruce Springsteen in Miami. Or I say: "Think of a schoolgirl who made the wall to go to break".

You are therefore as much as musician Director?

Director, Yes, it is me well. As all film come arrangers of strings that we use. I am very sensitive to the sound in a film, I love for example BO of Thomas Newman for American Beauty, those of the sponsor, of Scarface… The films are a therapy for me, I look at only, always the same,.

I am very sensitive to the sound in a film, I love for example BO of Thomas Newman for American Beauty, those of the sponsor, of Scarface… The films are a therapy for me, I look at only, always the same, waiting for their happy end. They inspire me musically, including for the strings, but not for words, because here everything is autobiographical: I can't borrow, cheat.

Why have invented the character of Lana Del Rey and abandoning your real name, Elizabeth Grant?

There is no border, no role assigned. Called me interchangeably Lizzy or Lana. When I was younger, I was especially writer, Lana was my artistic project, the group that I have ever had. I advance without mask. Lana gives me no rights, no license.

You work much?

Francis Ford Coppola said: "If you sit you each day in an Office, your muse know where to find you." I tried but it does not work. It comes when it wants to, where it wants. Sometimes, she left me for months. But I am more afraid of his absence, I know that she will return, that a song will fall me on it, a block, at the time where I am is expecting. I have no need of a room or Office, because I have my secret trail, eight years. He 59(e) Street, following docks to Ca--l Street, passes through the neighbourhoods Chinese and Italian, and back by the East Side… I realized that for my mind wanders my body must be in motion. I met Lou Reed several times, it obviously uses the same technique! I have always done it, since my childhood in Lake Placid, North of New York, almost at the Canadian border. I then left in the forest, only by choix… It was very isolated, mountainous, very dark, there was a side a little Twin Peaks. No wonder that I feel at home in Lynch films. In my early years, also described my music as "lynchienne". We have no doubt both of the black hearts.

When you started writing?

Very young. Poetry, then new, and then finally songs, awful in the first place. I have studies of philosophy and metaphysics. This passion for words, I owe it to my best friend Gene, my teacher of English at the time. He introduced me, to 15 years, Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg… books Suddenly, I was more the impression of being alone, lost in my dreams. Finally, I knew that there was a little bizarre people like me, in the margin. I have really been saved by the beat poets, they have opened a huge window for me, while reassuring me on my mental health. At Lake Placid, there were not many people who share my world: books have therefore become intimate friends. New York, people which I became the intimate talking me. I found this spirit by studying philosophy, surrounded by people who had no shame to ask questions, asking "Why exist we?" instead of "what time does tomorrow?".

Why you be launched in the music?

When I've landed in New York, to 18 years, a small label offered me $ 10,000 to a first disk. I spent a year in my room on 42nd Street to refine, to produce it. He served me as an outlet, I needed to serve me my black ideas. The result is magnificent. But anyone not heard him, apart from a few fans that follow me since. It is a very dark, uncomfortable disk. I was an 18-year-old girl, my son has refined since, but for me there is no revolution between this album and the following: just a black hole of six years. But, I do not claim my authenticity, my credibility, while at the bottom of me I don't feel even as a true singer of stage… I am before a writer, then perhaps a singer. Get on stage, it is against my nature, I was not born exhibitionist.

The scene is never a pleasure?

I am too concentrated to let me go, I am afraid of the missteps, then I control everything. When I see pictures of Jeff Buckley, this unprecedented freedom, I tell myself that really embodies it the music. Not me. I can't escape me. The music, it was his life. I constantly think about him. At Elliott Smith also. But I had to get rid of all its disks, I felt hostility, a side maléfique…

Are you a dreamer?

I was a child, until I refuse me escape from reality, that I accept to see the beauty. I woke and I love this world. My music is very blurred, dreaming, then I compensates with raw, anchored in everyday words. I do not cheat. I was raised with traditional values, but since my life was not very Orthodox. I have always listened to my instinct, followed a road complex but personal. The only values that I have kept and that I claimed are honesty and integrity. Schools, teachers understood very quickly. I was free, and they let me learn only at my pace. I have always lived like that, in my own head, to ask me questions without respite. And I was afraid: make music, not getting my way.

Your life really started arriving in New York, at age 18?

There was never conflict with my parents. Children, even if we did not have much disk at home, we always sang between us. But my learning of music, on stage and on disc, I actually lived it in disembarking in New York. I discovered at the same time Sinatra, Dylan, Jeff Buckley, Nina Simone, Elvis, Nirvana… And I am left there: I found happiness. Since I listen to the same few disk permanently, obsessively. It is rare that a new remains: the last time, was the Odd Future hip-hop collective.

Analyses you much that you listen?

I a--lysis nothing, my brain filter things in a natural way. In any event, musically, it me would not do anything: the music of others inspires not me for mine. I would also be unable to describe my music, his influences. It is too bizarre juste…. I love when my songs and I do that one, I felt it as soon as I have written Video Games. Then I quickly wrote Blue Jeans on the beach of Santa Monica, and there, I knew what would be the atmosphere of the album: one side both the summer and dark, the enjoyment of the fires of the summer and the certainty that it will not last. Video Games, I immediately understood that it would be an important song for me, it gave a suite to Yayo, the last title that I loved on my first album. But I would have never imagined that it would become a popular song: too long, too personal.

As in all your songs, mixture of brain and animal…

(Cutting it)... Yes, that's exactly it. Even if I spent most of my life in my head, I am haunted by the physical pleasure. I love my song Born to Die for it: nestled in her arms, I feel the passion of my lovers, a true neurological metamorphosis. It makes me feel really good to escape my mental reality. I love tile sense of ecstasy with the fixed idea that everything ends in the death. I know of no better combination than the animal and the brain.

I want the Deluxe one just for Lolita, I don't know those other songs. But Lolita is such a cute song.

I'm starting to really like her. The problem is that I don't know much about her, so forgive me. :nacho:
