Today I tuned in to VH1, who was hosting their '100 Sexiest Artists' special. Lucky for me, I caught it just in time to see Lana place #59! She was one one of the newest, if not the newest artist on the list and I thought it was awesome to see F-list """celebs""" talking about how sexy she is. Congrats Lana!

Welcome to LANALYSIS, where we get real unhealthy in our obsessions and absolutely revel in it.

This is a project I've been maintaining for a while now--Lana + Analysis...get it? The basic purpose is to relate every one of her songs (that's right, every last one of them) to her known and assumed relationships. Not a stone is left unturned. Privacy is violated. The fans rejoice. Mind you, it’s all pure speculation, but ~this is what makes us stans~

It’s pretty long but an interesting read, if I do say so myself. I hope you enjoy it in all it’s updated glory, and I will continue to update as new information is revealed and new songs come out. I will also be adding pictures, sources, etc. Stay tuned!

Let’s get started!



EARLY RELATIONSHIPS (1985 - ~2005)



LOCAL ROCKSTARS (~2005 - 2009)



YOU MADE ME NICE FOR A WHILE (2009 - 2011)



POST-BREAKTHROUGH (2011+)



IN THE LAND OF DISCREPANCIES



ADVANCED LANALYSIS



IN SUMMARY..

Lingering questions…
- Who the fuck is K?
- Who the fuck is Ray?
- Who the fuck is Bill? Is Bill really K? Does Bill matter at all?
- What significance do cars play? She mentions eight in total (white Corvette, white Pontiac, blue Chevy Nova/Chevrolet, Cadillac convertible, Mercedes, pickup truck, Lamborghini, Bugatti Veyron)
- When was she/who was she with in New York City and New Jersey? Ditto LA? Most mysterious and pressing, her time in the South?
- Did she have a fling with Bradley Soileau?
- Did Chris C. matter enough to her for her to write songs about him?

Assumptions Made:
- Lana was a gogo dancer.
- K is a drug dealer/murderer, dead or on death row.
- Jimmy is her ex-fiancé, addicted to cocaine despite a Wikipedia page stressing how healthy he is, associated with Chevrolets.
- Much of Sirens is about completely different relationships.
- She fucked Bradley.
- Mike controlled her career but their relationship wasn’t associated with anything fucked up like drugs or stripping.


Thanks for reading! I crave both your feedback and theories! This remains a forum collaboration and I don't claim to have the final say on Lanalytical manners.

For the sake of believability, I'm always hunting receipts, and currently:
- The interview where she refers to "Yayo" as the prequel to "Video Games"
- The interview where she describes "Video Games" as dealing with mutual sobriety in a relationship--her and her partner both staying clean.
- The interview where she talks about meeting her boyfriend in rehab and being dazzled by his small-scale celebrity.

lana made a$ap. No one even knew who he was when national anthem came out.  

i took all the magazines from work! there's no interview lana's feature is just her modelling Mulberry and the Magazine cover. she looks beautiful as ever
 
"The Alexa bag was born in January 2010, inspired by Chung, and today it's all about Lana Del Rey, because Hill's interest was piqued when she saw Video Games on YouTube. "The way her brain worked felt very similar to the way my brain works," says Hill. The two met, and the result was £4,500 of white ostrich Del Rey bag; a classic shape, deconstructed, with gold hardware."

Lana Del Rey says her forthcoming second album has "moved on to a more spiritual place lyrically".
The American singer, who now lives in the UK, has recently been writing new music in Santa Monica, California, for her new release.
She said: "It's a little more stripped down but still cinematic and dark."
Last week the star, whose real name is Elizabeth Woolridge Grant, won the award for best international female at the Brit Awards.
'Slow progress'
Speaking to Newsbeat after her win, the 26-year-old said: "I've been working on it really slowly but I love everything I've done.
"I've been writing in Santa Monica (California) and I know what the record sounds like. Now I just have to finish it"

"As soon as I write the words to a song, I can paint exactly what I want the picture to look like"

"Musically I've worked with the same three guys."
Lana Del Rey's debut album Born To Die, released in January 2012, was the fifth best-selling album around the world last year, shifting 3.4 million copies.
Frenchman Yoann Lemoine, or Woodkid as he's know on stage, directed Lana Del Rey's Born To Die and Blue Jeans videos and the singer says she already has a vision for one of her new tracks.
"For some reason the videos are still the easiest things that come," she explained.
"As soon as I write the words to a song, I can paint exactly what I want the picture to look like.
"I have a song called Black Beauty and I've already talked to people about making it."

Black Beauty????

:heidi:

Lana just began an impromptu set with her band at Soho House- a private member's club aimed primarily in the arts and media in New York. So far, concertgoers have describe the event as "intimate"...another person claimed that they left early and "did not get the hype." Most reviews were very positive.

 

 

Will update as more information comes in!
