I lol'd a bit at the "I still date bad men" bit. Has Barrie been sleeping in the dog house the past few weeks?

to everyone who didn't jump on the depression bandwagon 

This was an interview VG did with Lana around the time she performed in Bergen, so it's from yesterday I believe. 
 
Lana has captured the world with her music, but she points out that not everything in her life is picture perfect. 
 
After her performance in Bergen she received the high score 5 from VG, and the singer told us that she highly values Norwegian fans.
 
"I value being here more than ever now. When I see how the audience sings along, it makes me feel like they accept me for who I am. I feel like they understand me." 
When asked why there are still sad girls and bad men in her songs, Lana laughs, and answers: "I am still a sad girl, I still date bad men." 
 
On the "I wish I was dead" hysteria
 
But feeling understood is not always the case for the artist outside of the stage area. In an interview with the guardian published this week, the singer voiced a death wish, which got quoted by media all over the world, including VG.
 
But to VG Lana says that the whole situation was blown out of proportions. 
 
"I did not actually say that I thought an early death was a glamorous way to go. I just said that like many other people I admire and take inspiration from those who have passed at an early age," referring to her heroes, Jimi Hendrix and Amy Winehouse, who both died young. (Did he mix up Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison when he googled 27 club...?)
 
The artist admits to having said that she sometimes wishes she was dead, but that it was taken the wrong way. 
 
"Like many people who go through a lot I sometimes wish for my life to end. Sometimes feel like that, and sometimes I don't."
 
Lana Del Rey elaborates that every day is different, and that she is not an unhappy person.
"Sometimes I just feel like it becomes too much."
 
Talking about Ultraviolence
 
"To me this album is more relaxed, free and sexy. I didn't feel the need to document as much of my life story as I did in Born to Die. This album goes deeper into important moments from my life." Lana Del Rey adds that the album is like her own little personal jewel. 
 
The artist struggle when she's trying to explain why so many young girls love her music. 
 
"I guess they to a certain degree can relate to what I say or how I say things."
 
Interviewer: "But one of your songs from the new album is called "Fucked My Way to the Top". What do you want to convey to those who listen to this song?"
 
"I don't censor myself," she says, and adds that all of the songs on the album means something to her and often tells a tale about things she's been trough. 
 
She admits that sharing her deep and personal songs from the stage has been nerve wracking. But Del Rey says it has become easier with time. Now she sees that the audience is happy to be at her concerts. And that is why she sees the importance in taking "selfies" with her fans during concerts, giving out hugs and pecks on the cheek. 
 
"It's a part of the experience. For them I am the show, but to me they are the show. So I take part in it."

HER BROKEN SCREEN. THE SPACEBAR TO PLAY THE VID. 

The 'people never die in Miami' lyric makes me think of Dexter tbh....

Noticed that after I posted it. I'd delete it, but you know.

I don't know how many times this needs to be said, but god damn people, we don't know her. Yeah, it's normal to express concern and think about hypothetical issues, but starting to talk about depression based on just an interview is not alright . It is a real illness, that some people actually have and it's nothing compared to what she is saying. As much as it can affect anyone of us, it is not as common as most people tend to say. Especially clinical depression.
 
I wish her all the best and I hope she will eventually find that peace that she has for so long been looking for. I'm sure it will come. Fame has taken away most of that freedom in which she used to find comfort before, but it has also brought a lot of good things and i'm sure she knows that. I hope she gets to meet more musicians like Dan, who has obviously been a great influence on her and on her music.

it's pretty hard to make out some of the words, especially in v1. other than that, they're cool

I also believe it was a moment thing. I mean she spoke about wanting kids and now about being dead. Who of us hasn't thought about both those things? Two crucial moments in anyone's life, it's only natural. The only difference is that you don't say that to journalist, you say it to friends. lol But now that she did, oh well.

people don't understand the length of her mind and take everything too literally. the fact that she said she wants to die does not mean that she contemplates suicide or something along those lines. she has a very philosophical and spiritual view on life, so death can be just as gratifying as life in that way. it still is sad to think that such a troubled soul can bring us such happiness.
 
But maybe her saying something this personal is a sign that she truly doesn't care that much about what people say about her anymore. I mean, she's opened up quite a lot about a bunch of stuff lately and I don't believe she would've done that without being fully aware that not all people will understand her/empathize with her and they will still judge her mindlessly, much like some of us on here do, unfortunately.

nice changing the subject on that Fucked My Way Up To The Top question Lana

I'm believe this is like an excerpt from her full interview with  The Sun 
 source: http://www.music-news.com/shownews.asp?H=Lanas-telepathic-romance&nItemID=80678
 
Lana Del Rey says her connection with boyfriend Barrie-James O'Neill feels 'telepathic'.

The 27-year-old Shades of Cool singer has been in a relationship with the Scottish musician since 2011.

And according to Lana their bond continues to grow stronger.

'He is definitely a poet. I didn't really know what being a poet meant until I met him. He has changed me in ways that I didn't expect,' she explained to British newspaper The Sun. 'On the one hand I have everything I've dreamed of in terms of a soul connection, it's almost telepathic.'

Although they have a powerful bond, Lana admits she finds being in a relationship challenging sometimes.

The star also dismisses speculation she and Barrie-James are getting married.

'I would be lying if I said it wasn't difficult. He is a much darker character than most people I've ever met,' she shared. 
'We always joke around about how we should have found simpler counterparts. There are rumours we are engaged. We are not but we are together.'

Lana struggled with alcohol and drug addiction in the past.

The songstress confesses it's been taking a huge amount of willpower on her part to remain sober recently.

'I've loosened up a lot which means before, when I was depressed I wanted drink and now I am feeling good I still want to drink,' she laughed.

'But I think back to when I was in high school and I'd been taking a lot of drugs. We were crushing up truck driver pills, called bumblebees. I was self-medicating and needed to stop. You can't get through your day and work like this unless you are Keith Richards. So I stopped and I had to or none of this would've happened.'

Lana's third album Ultraviolence is released on Friday June 13.

What Lana needs to do is take her family and friends and go on a well deserved vacation, somewhere tropical where her dad can show off all his shirts and she can do whatever the fuck she wants and see new people and find new inspiration because life is beautiful and girl you even wrote a song about it, I refuse to believe you don't see it. 

let the chill commence
