Speaking to xinmsn at the Four Seasons Hotel yesterday, Lana was her soft-spoken self but expressed shock at the hordes of fans who turned up at the Mulberry storefront to welcome her. “It was wild. The fans were respectful but excited that I was there. I thought we were just going to cut the ribbon,” said the singer who also has a Mulberry bag produced in her name.

“I remember seeing things on Twitter when people knew I was coming but I didn’t know why they cared. When I saw everyone yesterday, I wish I had gotten to talk to them more but I did manage to say Hi to a lot of people along the way,” Lana explained her regret at being unable to speak to her fans outside the more as bodyguards moved her from place to place.

Lana’s fans will understand the inspiration behind her music, which she calls as “filmic” and “art”. Lana recalled hearing Elvis Presley for the first time and said, “It was so different from what was on the radio today”. She counts artistes such as Bob Dylan and Kurt Cobain to be her inspirations but she is particular about emulating the freedom the ‘60s and the ‘90s embodied.

 

“It was a more hopeful feeling, I try to keep it alive. I like tradition but I was really moved by the idea of being independent and artistic. I couldn’t believe that it was possible where I could have a life that was based around making art. It was such an exciting idea, for me, that I could one day be a real artist and not have to do anything else,” Lana said.

If you are wondering if the rumours over her collaborating with Lady Gaga for upcoming album ARTPOP are true, Lana denies it flat out to us. She also denied media recently saying she was going to stop making albums. “I just said that I was starting to write soundtracks for movies, so that’s where my focus was. I don’t know though. When I was younger, my muse came to me and I felt really on fire to write a lot, but now my muse comes a lot less often,” Lana said. She will be writing soundtracks for two movies out early next year.

 

She said her new EP, Paradise, was born out of writing a new song every month for this year. While Lana said Paradise has a more “natural” vibe with the omission of hip-hop beats, she admitted her music comes “half from a place of darkness but half from happiness for my future”. She gets her laughs though from Tumblr, remarking how she trawled through the site last night. In her own words, “I don’t always go on Tumblr but sometimes I do because the people on there are really funny.”

Paradise will be released on November 12, 2012.

Awww, so sweet~ thanks for this!

 

People say this this is her Tumblr http://americandreambeautyqueen.tumblr.com/

It used to be so when she'd tweeted you could click the rectangle thing and it would go to her Twitter and her tweet would be shown under the pink roses. Not sure if it's true that it's hers..

Praise the Good Lord for this interview, now desperate Gaga fans will be forced to stfu about Lana featuring on ARTPOP. What a cute interview though! I am very interested in which month brought about which songs, and whether or not she spent an entire month trying to write a song, failing, and saying, "Fuck it, I'll just redo Yayo and try again next month."

 

Thanks for posting the interview, TPD. :)

Let's give our last words for this collab, light your candles y'all:

 

As probably the only active Gaga fan (you guys are really good at scaring them off :P), I kinda have to say it would have been interesting, if messy. But I'm not losing sleep without it. I'm cool with her having a ton of hip-hop collabs, though.
