If she redid St. Tropez, yes

Transcript of the interview on BBC 1:
 
H:       And tonight, we’re gonna start it with new music from this lady… Hey Lana Del Rey!  How are you?
LDR:   I’m good, how are you?
H:       I’m very very good, thank you very much.  Thank you so much for your time tonight, it’s lovely to talk to you.
LDR:   Yeah, good to talk to you too.  No problem.
H:       So, new music from you always feels like it’s a bit of a moment, but this is a very very special moment, talk to me about Love.
LDR:   Well, thank you, I mean I’m just so happy that this is the first single that we chose because I really love the message and I love the sound of the record, it has like such a mix of everything that I really love, sonically.  So yeah, I mean it came out a little bit earlier than I thought. (and I’m really excited about it)
H:       Any particular reason why?
LDR:   Well, I mean… It just started leaking the other day, so…
H:       Ah…
LDR:   So, we just got ahead of it and put it out, but I am, I’m really excited about it.
H:       Do you know what, that’s brilliant, because I think that for a lot of artists, especially those artists of your stature, they can bury their head in the sand and pretend that it didn’t happen.  But the fact that you’re going “this has happened, but now you can have it properly,” that’s big.
LDR:   Yeah, thank you, I think so too.  I mean and with social media it just goes everywhere before you could even say, “oh no, it didn’t,” you know?  So, yeah.
H:       So, musically, I think you know what, this feels like classic Lana Del Rey, to me, but you have been working with some really very interesting people, definitely.  It feels like, you know you’ve worked with Benny Blanco on this particular one and it feels like he’s gotten into a Lana Del Rey headspace.
LDR:   That’s… I think that’s kind of true.  Yeah, I don’t know, I guess with the last two records like Honeymoon and Ultraviolence, I definitely was in a place where I wanted to hear mood music, almost kind of stuff that I would like to listen to at home, you know stuff I recorded live, in a room, with a band, like all at once.  But then, I guess now that I’m a couple of years down the line away from the Ultraviolence record, I think I had more I wanted to say, and I wanted it to come through I little bit more clearly, so it was fun to get back into that really big, like clean sound.  So yeah, cool making this record.  Benny’s awesome, he spins with Emile Haynie who did all that kind of like additional production on Born to Die, so it definitely helped kinda add that bigger sound to this single.
H:       Yeah definitely, it’s the return of the cinematic Lana Del Rey
LDR:   Yeah.
H:       It’s in full technicolor as well.
LDR:   Yeah.
H:       Now, is this taken from a forthcoming album?  Is this kind of a little warning shot for what there is to come?
LDR:   It is, yeah.  There is a record and yeah this is a good representation of where it’s headed.  Where the sound is headed.
H:       Brilliant, well I can’t wait to hear more, and thank you so much for not only letting us get ahold of this in an official capacity, but also letting us play it tonight on BBC radio 1.
LDR:   Thank you so much, I appreciate it and I’m really glad that you like it.
H:       When you’re over in the UK we definitely have to have a proper sit down and a proper chat.  We need to pick your brains on the way that you do things, it’s very interesting
LDR:   I would love to tell you, I would love to tell you everything, I’d love to do that.
 

i hate the poster/single art for love. i think that the photoshopping is cringeworthy. if the picture of her with the microphone was in the middle rather than the massive picture of her with her eyes closed i think it would be better
 
also the song sounds too similar to honeymoon for me. like she sounds beautiful, but it's nothing new, and i was hoping for something new and exciting with this album. i guess it's one track out of who knows how many, but if it's the lead single....

I love Lana to pieces and she's amazing but I think 'Love' is mediocre at best... Still a bop but..yeah.

Love is cute and I'm happy she's back and seemingly excited about her stuff, yet I don't really think it's a great tune and definitly her weakest lead single so far. It's not that I think the song is not crafted in a bad way, I just don't like the direction it's taking ...

I agree - looks ridiculous 

to anyone asking for the nbl demos i promise i'll upload as soon as i get the giveaway prize!

pretty sure they extracted the song from the video.

kinda petty but I wish the ending just faded with the "don't worry baby" part

vintage kids 

the artwork sucks a bit, but the song is good... it sound like a song grimes could do 

someone please rip those demos off the cassette or something im desperate

i can do without a vid for the worst song on the album

I'm kind of excited for the Mad Hatter video but at the same time I feel like she might overdo the "I'M CRAZY" mindset, I understand it's apart of the character and it's supposed to be exaggerated but like yikes (looking at the perfume milk commercial and alphabet boy). It just seems super tryhard sometimes, i guess and I don't see the point of it being used as often as it is which is probably why I dislike it sometimes. 
I do hope that she goes down the American Mcgee Alice route if she wants to make it creepy, I think it could really work.

Honestly wasn't much

I thought the lyrics to Yayo were "I like the snake on your tattoo, I like the Ivy and the pink blue" 

Bumping this thread for more replies. These pics so far have been amazing! 5 more days until I announce the winner!

idk

I can imagine an album called Sweet Heart
 

 

Young Jessica Walter (aka   ) made me think of Lana or is it just me. 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 

All of her albums have been so different so I don't even know what to expect. My body is ready 

Actually its I.S.W.M.U.O.M.W.N., #RECONFIRMED
