I'm so excited too, I really want to get to the first row, last year in April I didn't make it and I'm too nice to fight my way through the crowd But this time...
-
How long do you think will they have this open for pre-orders? Will I still be able to order the exact same boxset in 25 days?

I love the Black Keys since years so I freaked out when I found out Dan Auerbach produces Ultraviolence! My favourite album will always be Brothers though, every single song is beautiful.

LANALYSIS: Relating Songs To Known/Assumed Relationships
lanasgirl replied to Sitar's topic in Lana Thoughts
Has anyone pointed out yet that in this remix she says she's "leaving [him] for the music", not "for the moment"? What's that supposed to mean? Why did she change that in this remix? I don't get it. I don't understand why there exist so many different versions and why she posted this remix on her official Youtube. What for? There must be a good reason? -
I actually really like it. It's so different but I love it
-
i like it so much, she looks so beautiful! so happy!!!

Is it actually confirmed that the billboard picture is used for the album cover as well? Because I'd rather have one with her new hair.

But Lana is in Germany June 20! -
I'm sorry if this has already been posted but I've found the whole translation of the interview on this blog on Tumblr and wanted to share it with you guys. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Lana Del Rey, American icon, seems to be tired of her vintage looks of pin-up dolls from the 50s. This ultra-feminine vibe that you can feel through her album covers. For the very first photoshoot of a huge promotion to come, she doesn’t want to seem very arty and wears clothes from her own wardrobe, from some local vintage shops. We’re back in the 60s/70s, retro vibe, more like Janis Joplin than Patti Smith… “I have seen so many photographs of me that made me feel uncomfortable. It was too much. But the medias wanted that,” she says, while crossing her big fake red nails. Cigarette in her hand and iPhone on, playing some reggae music, she says she prefers working with a loyal team. She’s herself very surprised to work with a very new director, the famous Dan Auerbach, leader of the Black Keys. “I met him in a strip club in Queens. They played one of my song, we danced together. One week later, I went recording some songs with him, in his house in Nashville. Dan is stubborn, a dominant man who likes testing his own ideas first. In fact, it usually sounded exactly like I wanted to. About me, if I am a dominant person? Yes, but only when it’s about my work.” She is special when she talks, she reminds me of Marilyn – she even tried to imitate her in an old homemade video, Kill Kill. She tries to find the right words, takes her time, stops the conversation with big peals of laughter. It’s a mix of shyness, apprehension and peace. Three years after the storm – that sudden recognition, we all were wondering how she was going to face up to the upcoming wave… Except about her look, it will be a big chance because it’s never too late to star a revolution. The hip-hop beats of Born To Die, its strings and legendar violins are gone… Guitars, rock ‘n’ roll and soft jazzy vibes –Ultraviolence is here. Her favourite track is Cruel World, which is about virulent love. “Ultraviolence is about the male that meets the female. But before the actual sense, I just like the word. It has become the space of a sonorous world that I wanted to make.” In the record, Lana Del Rey sings about enjoying life and re-becoming wild with the fear of not succeeding. “When I write, I think about the freedom I had when I was 17, about the life that makes me dream, too. My main influences? The music I listen to and the movies I watch.” She quotes Jeff Buckley, Nirvana, Nina Simone and adores Kubrick, Tarantino and Lynch. A cigarette between her lips, Lana Del Rey looks at the landscape and turns her back to a pond full of Chinese carps, all white and orange. Not far away, there’s a beige Rolls waiting to drive, in the garage. “I do interviews and photoshoots, but I live in real world, I’m solitary. Here, it’s all about me but at home it’s all about my little brother, my little sister and James, my fiancé.” Lana Del Rey is getting to Los Angeles where she lives now, after living in Lake Placid, her hometown near NYC. She’s the oldest child, and that makes her quite maternal. People used to say that her father was rich, he’s a realtor. “They pretended he bought my career. But all the labels don’t need money, they want artists. Those attacks were the weakest.” Unprofessional singer for 7 years, she used to hang out in Brooklyn. She has always talked about her old alcoholism and the way she got over all of this. Her voice was everywhere in 2011 – the impact of Video Games. Then, everyone was imagining her as a diva, a huge performer. In fact, we all found out who she was – a shy girl. We ask her “Do you enjoy being on stage?”. She replies “Sometimes…” only, she admits. Lana Del Rey is unusual, she doesn’t read anything that is about her, “Too mean,” she says, she even avoids social networks. “I’m still stuck in two worlds whenever I have to talk about fame. In the US, you never see me on TV, I don’t know any famous celebrity and I’m not often outside. In my house, everything is always on – television, radio, lights… It helps me to sleep. I’m nervous every time I have to sleep… What I love? Driving. It relaxes me.” An aura, sometimes naive and sensual, even sexual, emerges whenever you see her. “You are sure about what you should reveal, especially when you are an artist. I’m coming from a simple family, quite quiet. I need to feel the situations and manage everything that’s around me. If you say too much, people might misundestand you. And if you stay quiet, they might imagine what they want to.” She almost stopped everything, so many times, but she decided to stay, while some big celebrities run the music industry, like Lorde, Grimes or Miley Cyrus. The Young country girl, superstar, covers Summertime Sadness on stage. “I know about it. It surprised me. We are so different. She is bigger than life, without any limit. The main difference between us is probably that I’ve never wanted to do any provocation because I know the risks. I’m quite confused. It disrupted me.” Lana Del Rey feels like she has lived three different lives, “before the storm, the disaster and after”. Irony, obviously… But then, she says, in a serious way “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger? Personally it just deeply hurt me. I’m so tired of it. Luckly, when I write, I don’t think about what people are going to think about my work. I just hope all of this won’t happen again. Have you already read something good about me? In France, maybe. All the journalists tried to understand what I was doing. Maybe because here, you have a real artistic and romantic culture. I feel understood in your country. In some other contries, what they write isn’t even about my music. I don’t even know why… But that’s life.” She’s standing here, wearing her torn jeans. Lana Del Rey has understood that she is in conflict… Hopefully, the controversy is going to stop with Ultraviolence, the 3rd Chapter of her career. “It sounds like everything I listen to. Phil Spector has been one of my inspirations, honestly. The album has a Californian influence… With different effects and progressions, with a tough energy which makes me think of New York”. Ultraviolence, Interscope-Polydor, end of June.

If she actually had confirmed the release date for real, people would have posted that SECONDS after her saying so. Just for the popularity of the recording of it. They wouldn't even have to LOVE Lana, they would have just done it. I mean, there were how many people at this concert, thousands of phones were recording her, and none of them captured this ONE moment? I am hoping for a June release, really. But I'm not getting my hopes up too high anymore, I guess we'll just have to wait. -
if anyone knows if west coast is out in the german itunes store then pls tell me because i can't find it and it pisses me off

You saying these things is offensive to people who enjoy this kind of foreplay / sex / whatever. Some who are actually into this kind of passion are scared to act on their feelings and accept it because of people like you, calling it fucked up. Seriously, I mean YES WE ARE IN YEAR 2014 and it shouldn't be a problem for you to at least argue respectful so no one who's into this has to feel offended. It takes two (or more idk) to agree on this kind of sex, with the same wishes and expectations and it's definitely not what you're trying to make it look like: rape. Rape is something else. Okay, I'm done. -
