I'll post my cds/vinyls another time, I have a few on order so I'll wait til the collection is complete
This is all my magazines (except Vogue au, I forgot to add it into this photo and I can't be bothered to take it again)
Can't believe the Ghost hate!! I bow 2 the songwriting on that.. actually, I bow to Sky's writing in general.. It's not like out of this world or anything, but it is really good for what she's doing
and Sitar, sky has vehemently denied doing drugs .. do i believe her?
based on this video- no lol it makes me choke everytime @ 1:19
The questions are in french so I'll translate them (and I'll go ahead and write what she says too)
There's something that I can't understand. How is it that a girl as beautiful and as young as you - you are 26, can sing such melancholic and sad things that she has not necessarily gone through? Where does that come from?
Humm, I have been through them. That's the thing. I had a very very very wild life and an innately old soul.
Already?
Yeah. The combination of those two things just kind of formed my entire style, all at once.
Did you have suicidal tendencies when you were young?
When I was young? I don't know, somedays I still wanna.. You know.. Have everything end but that's just human.
But really Lana Del Rey, where does your sensitivity come from? You don't have the typical profile of an American your age. Where does it come from?
That's a good question. I am sensitive. I care deeply about everyone I've ever met and that is something that just comes naturally to me. I have a young brother and sister who live with me. Yeah I've been really touched by artists like Whitman and Gainsbourg and I feel a deep sense of wonder for literature like that, that's changed me. But above that I feel like a great need to take care of people who need to be taken care of and I really- I care!
Lana Del Rey what are the words you have tattooed on the side of yours hands?
Paradise and trust no one.
But that's paradoxical, trusting no one and at the same time seeking paradise.
I know. This one's just in case people try and mess with me
To protect you..
*laughs*
It's a tough environment that you chose. It's also an industry. How do we survive this when we are that sensitive?
I don't know. It's too hard. Yeah, it's just too tough.
Since last year, all we talk about is you Lana Del Rey, what have you learned about yourself with this success?
Nothing.
Nothing nothing?!
Not from this. I never learn things, really.. If I'm talking to someone like you I just enjoy it. If I'm talking to someone who doesn't like the music, there's nothing to learn from that. I never found that there was anything to be learned through suffering going through difficult things, contrary to all the sayings.
I don't find any growth through suffering. I really just think it'd be better if things were always easy.
But I learned more from the work I did before and from the books I've read and the people I love and then being able to sing to people on stage is more.. just a luxury.
Are you interested in politics? Is the election of Obama a good thing?
Oh yeah incredibly. Obama provides an important image that we need to present to the world as Americans. He is a symbol of hope.
There's not enough one man can do as a president that will help our nation. It's up to the individuals to come up with new ideas to sustain economy and more importantly our planet cause every year they say we're running out of time. This year is more than ever, population doubling, everyone's in debt Europe as well.
Last question, in the re-realease of Born to Die, in one of your new songs, you say "my pussy tastes like pepsi cola". Is it a provocation or just a joke?
It's a joke *laughs*
Is it a light or a normal pepsi?
Always, I'm always on a diet. I'm not gonna drink real coke I have a figure to maintain
my ride single from hmv arrived today (this one). it was supposed to be a cd with the tire swing photo as a cover but it's the picture vinyl. i mean, i like it but it's weird.
I'll post my cds/vinyls another time, I have a few on order so I'll wait til the collection is complete

Okay. So Patrick Berger, who wrote "I Love It" with Charli (later given to Icona Pop), also co-produced "Off to the Races." I need to contact him A S A P.
