I swear on my life I was looking at the comments maybe she deleted them but there was this one where a comment was in russian and she gave a link to preorder uv I was curious as to what it was and I put it in google translate and what the guy wrote was an insult she's the best I can't wait until she curses someone out again.

ugh
lana obviously struggles with depression and believe me, the 'you know only one life!!! live it!!' cliche doesn't help
i get that she's upset about how everybody glamorizes the death of her father but she doesn't have the right to tell ppl how to feel about death.

And to die is different from what any one supposed, and

I dunno, I think there is a difference between glamourizing death and having a different relationship with dead then most people do, as in fear of dying.
Lana fits the second part. She doesn't seem afraid of it, more like it is another life.
If that makes any sence at all

lauradelxx liked a post in a topic by PinUpCartoonBaby in LDR: "I always want to experiment" (Interview with dpa)
New interview and I already translated it for you.
Source
TRANSLATION:
I found two other short "interviews" with dpa. I'm not sure if they belong to the one I already posted but as all of them took place in Berlin and were made by dpa I guess that it's actually one interview and those questions that I've found now are just outtakes or idk.
I translated them for you too but I did it very quickly so there might be some tiny mistakes in it. (Translation in spoilers)
Here's the first one where she talkes about past eras. Source
And the other one (about soccer/ football and a bullfight). Source

Fusel liked a post in a topic by lauradelxx in Old Money + Gatsby
Ever since I heard the title I thought of great gatsby bc that's an adjective they use for the people that have "classic" money aka old money and not new money. She also references y&b in the bad of my head I thought maybe she was supposed to use this song instead of young and beautiful for the soundtrack but kept it for herself. I love it so much my favorite off the album.

@@lauradelxx YES, in Old Money there are very similar lyrics: "young and pretty" as wells as "will you still love me my when I shine, from words but not from beauty." I feel like this one was originally for the film!

Blue hydrangea, cold cash divine
Cashmere cologne, and white sunshine
Red racing cars, Sunset and Vine
The kids were young and pretty
Where have you been, where did you go
Those summer nights seem long ago
And so is the girl, you used to call
"The Queen of New York City"
But if you send for me, you know I'll come
And if you call for me, you know I'll run
I'll run to you, I'll run to you
I'll run run run
I'll come to you, I'll come to you
I'll come come come
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh...
Aah, aah, aahh....
The power of youth, is on my mind
Sunset, small town
I'm out of time
Will you still love me when I shine
From words but not from beauty
My father's love was always strong
My mother's glamour lives on and on
Yet still inside I felt alone
For reasons unknown to me
But if you send for me, you know I'll come
And if you call for me, you know I'll run
I'll run to you, I'll run to you
I'll run run run
I'll come to you, I'll come to you
I'll come come come
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh...
Aah, aah-ah-ah-ahh..
And if you call, I'll run run run
If you change your mind, I'll come come come
Ooh, ooh, ooh...
Aah, aah-ah-ah-ahh..
Blue hydrangea, cold cash divine
Cashmere cologne, and white sunshine
Red racing cars, Sunset and Vine
And we were young and pretty

lauradelxx liked a post in a topic by TheKingofHorror in VIDEO PREMIERE: Shades of Cool
I love this video so much it's my favorite music video of hers by far. I love the concept, the artistry, the direction.
Lana looks so amazing and natural and real in this video. She does every movement with such class even just eating a strawberry. She's so careful and beautiful ugh, I wish I had an inch of sex appeal she does. Even when she's dancing it's just magic. Please have mercy on my soul Lana I can't take how good this one is.

lauradelxx liked a post in a topic by ExoticFlower in Lana Del Rey to Dagbladet: "It makes me so mad." (15.06.2014)
Heeey, I thought these Norwegian interviews were pretty good, so I'll translate another one from Dagbladet.
On the performance in Bergen
It was amazing. Totally amazing.
It's 2 AM at night and Lana Del Rey (27), is relaxed and elated at the same time.
Dagbladet talks to her an hour short after her performance in Bergen that held place night till sunday. She has already concluded that tonights concert was one of her most memorable performances ever.
Lana: "I got this feeling that no matter if I sang jazz or one of my new singles, people would be there with me, and have a good understanding of who I am."
The album
Both VG and Dagbladet gave Lana a score of 5. Lana describes the album as a mix of the psychedelic 70's, West Coast fusion and underground jazz.
"I am not as formal anymore, I feel more spontaneous now. It is more about snapshots of what has influenced me, both the good and the bad."
- "You sing about money, booze, power and sleeping your way to the top...?"
Lana: "Everything I sing about on the record is a combination of things that have happened, and things that people think have happened. Money Power Glory, as an example, is about how people interpreted me and misunderstood me. It is sarcastic response to that. West Coast and Cruel World is connected to the excitement I feel when I'm at the west coast, where I live now after I moved from New York. Everything is about how others see me, and how it has affected me."
- "In other words, you're taking a stand against the prejudice?"
Lana: "Yes, that is my answer. I felt very sarcastic when I wrote some of those songs," she says and laughs. (OMG I can almost hear her cute and loud laugh as I'm writing this )
Unfortunate circumstances
For she can laugh, despite how mass media has painted her picture with sad and heavy paint strokes.
The 27 year old, whose real name is Elizabeth Grant, has previously told a tale about how she got sent away at the age of 14 because she had drinking problems. Also about the cult she was part of, and got used by. And her many rock and roll boyfriends.
Not to mention that she sounds unmistakably sad in many of her songs. But is she?
Lana: "It depends. I really don't know why everything has to sound so bittersweet. I have felt peaceful and calm while writing nowadays, reflecting on experiences I have had. I was sarcastic, upset about personal stuff in my life and how it has been. But in a more reflecting way than sad this time."
- "Do you depend on a certain amount of sadness to make your music?"
Lana: "No, I don't find it to be like that. I think I have been unfortunate with circumstances, and it has affected my writing. I am in a peaceful state of mind now, but I haven't exactly been very happy in a while either."
It makes me so mad
It may seem like Lana Del Rey adds her fair share of fuel to the fire. Not long ago she said that she often felt sick, without knowing why. And then we have the quote that has gone global since it was published by the Guardian: "I wish I was dead already."
- "What did you mean by that?"
Lana: "This is another way of sensationalizing whatever I'm saying. It makes me so mad (or it pisses me off, Idk what the best option was). I talked to the writer for three hours, and he saw my show. When you're in a room with someone, it's not just about what you're saying, but it's also about your personality and how you are as a person. It's about reading between the lines. I don't understand why he felt the need to take it so literally," she says.
"To top it off he asked me very leading questions. He talked about Kurt Cobain and Amy Winehouse, asked me a lot about death and pumped me for answers and how I felt about dying young, because I was sad and had been through a lot (I can imagine her saying this with a very snarky undertone )".
"He wanted to know if I had thought about dying, and yes, sometimes I have. But not always. Only on those days when it all becomes too much. Then I have days where it affects me less. The way he wrote it made it all seem so much more shocking than it really was."
Happy behind the wheel
So Lana Del Rey is not sad all the time, in case someone was under that impression. She feels her best when cruising around in California, where she currently lives.
Lana: "I spend a lot of time by the sea, on the beach, with good friends. I love recording my music. And I love going to concerts, watch rock stars perform, like Courtney Love, The Who and Gun's and Roses."
- "Do you feel like media gets too caught up in this one side of you, the sad one?"
Lana: "A bit. It's also about being obsessed with one persons concept. It is why I have chosen some of the songs I have chosen on the tracklist on Ultraviolence. But I understand it too, the way it is. It makes a pretty good story, but it doesn't have to become fictionalized either."
Sensitive and imaginative
- "What is it like to be you?"
Lana: "It is beautiful and confusing," answers Del Rey, after thinking it through in silence. The she elaborates: "I am an imaginative person, I like being caught by surprise in life. But I am sensitive too. I find it hard when things gets out of my control."
"But I still manage to enjoy moments of true beauty, like being here tonight, while it's still bright outside and the skye is blue. I like to capture that in songs, and my biggest passion is still writing. It makes a good manifestation of all the unease, and all that confusion gives life to beautiful things. I am blessed to have that to hold on to."
- "You seem grateful?"
Lana: "I am. When it all comes down to it, it's all about the music. That's the one thing in my life I can't do wrong."
I'm worried about Lana, she's not happy nowadays? What happened to "I'm happy"? Is she hitting another blue period?
