I think I'll go to a Part of my City where I lived while UV came out. Just to re-feel the moments or at least to have new ones for HM. HM is so sad and uninspiring UV was so different. I hope it changes in the next 3 month

This is just ridiculous.

What do you mean? You know I love you and I wasn't dragging you at all, I love your posts lol I was saying what I'd do if I met her

Those videos omg I need to meet her!!

Something dark and unexpected like UV please

This is just ridiculous.

Aaaand it's impossible to love an album if it's not commercially successful, right?

Something dark and unexpected like UV please

I don't feel like it's either tbh, it's more like a mix of the two than a continuation of either.

On Doing “Ride” With Rick Rubin
 
I was writing that Paradise edition, and originally was writing it as a follow-up record, but nobody wanted to release something eight months later. It ended up being a re-release-slash-second edition, and I loved this demo I did with Justin Parker, who I wrote a lot of things with like “Video Games” and “Born to Die,” “National Anthem,” and Ferdy Unger-Hamilton at EMI hated the song. So I think him and Rick had been talking and Rick was like, “What’s going on with Lana? Can she come over, I hear she’s in L.A.” I think I had been over to say “Hi” to him first. Just to say “​hi.” We took a walk in Santa Monica—he takes the same walking route every morning. Then a few weeks later I brought him “Ride,” and he really liked it. Working with him was good, I was still in my old car, my old Mercedes that was barely making it down that hour-and-a-half drive down to Shangri-La Studios in Malibu, and it was really good. He has this sprawling lawn with all these bunnies and palm trees. He was very relaxed. It was good.
 
On the Most Important Person She Ever Shared a Cigarette With  
Probably my manager, who is still my manager, Ben Mawson, over the last four years. He doesn’t smoke anymore, but he used to smoke more than me and drink 12 beers a day. I met him, he told me to just come to London and I did. I just went and met him. I think they were at Shoreditch House, so we went on the roof and had a cigarette. He felt like I was really worried about everything, and he told me that he had a plan and that everything was going to go OK and not to worry. He was very aggressive, and he was such a believer. So probably with Ben, I guess.
 
 
On Making Art Vs. Satisfying the Major Label Machine 
I came in in a unique position in that “Video Games” had so many views, and that was the reason why Jimmy Iovine at Interscope and Ferdy Unger-Hamilton at Polydor had called me on that day and wanted to revisit the record and hear it again.
So I got signed on great terms because the discussions we were having were that it was always going to be my way. I liked coming from this DIY place where if I had a single that they really felt like they wanted to put money behind or promote—I liked knowing it was an option that I could make my own video at home for it, like I did with “Video Games.” Eventually I tired of that, graduated to working with other people. But in that way I was in a really good place after the record was done with its cycle.
I think the label was half-and-half on this record [Ultraviolence] because there were a lot of jazz undertones and West Coast references. I think they were happy that I was happy with it and that I made it. I don’t think they felt like there were singles that could work at radio. And I kind of felt that, because I have such a good relationship with Jimmy and Ferdy. I’ve been working, “working” [makes air quotes], singing, for years. So the people I’m closest with are like my product manager and the video commissioner, because they’re really good girls. The A&R guys—Larry Jackson and John, if I go out at night I probably go out with them. We’re pretty flexible with each other, but it always come down to differences. For example, the bonus tracks on this record I didn’t feel like had any relation to the atmosphere of the record itself. I think iTunes was like, “You would have trouble promoting a record if it didn’t have a deluxe edition,” so, there’s stuff like that.

I'm REALLY hoping for another dark album (maybe darker )

Getting Honeymoon 16 months after Ultraviolence is spoiling us if you ask me. Almost twice as long between BTD and UV, although we got the shorter length Paradise in between. When UV came out I expected it'd be 2 years before we got any new album.

The fact that they are trash 

I think she's referencing the pink-flamingo-trailer-park-trash vibe more than the movie tbh because of her Lizzy background
